When I moved into the apartment a few years ago, I had to choose --
Do I turn the smaller of the two bedrooms into my home office or my bedroom?
I chose the latter, assuming I don't need much space to sleep and dress.
I'm glad I did, but that means my bedroom is hardly a place to relax after a long day, nor is it a place to start new, to be frank, everyone should have a bedroom that encourages good health and good sleep.
I made some minor improvements over time and made great progress.
I am a person who needs a little ambient noise to sleep soundly.
Usually the fan does this and it also moves some air on my face (
Or my whole body, in the warm months)
This made me feel comfortable while I was sleeping.
The air is calm (to me, anyway;
Your mileage may vary)
, The low and constant drone of the fan acts as background noise, blocking the siren, speakers and various sounds of the city outside my window.
As a bonus, I chose a fan with a remote control, which means I can turn it on and off in a comfortable bed.
Mine is 18-
Inch vertical fan, but you can easily find the smaller size model, desktop fan without remote control or even window
Install a fan if you don't have an air conditioner.
My colleagues at Wirecutter, the company I commented on the product in the New York Times, spent dozens of hours testing fans and advising the best room fans and window fans as you need them.
If you're not concerned about moving the air or keeping the bedroom cool, try the white noise machine.
Recommended by LectroFan Wirecutter, I would also recommend.
It's small enough to hide in something you carry with you
When you travel, it is easy to operate in the dark and can make loud enough to stop the noise from the outside world.
This is an easy way to take a night off at home or on the road.
One of the most luxurious things I 've ever bought
Please note that luxury in style, not in price --
It's a heated mattress.
I turned to Wikipedia experts again and I was not disappointed.
They recommend Sunbeam premium quilting pads and a non-
If you don't need the fluffy texture on the top, the price of the quilting version is about half.
In addition, most models come with dual controls, so you can set one side of the bed independently.
If your partner likes it more than you do, that's fine.
No matter which one you choose, when you can go to bed, press the button and spend enough time enjoying the cool, you will be happy to come to the autumn and winter season, before experiencing the soothing warmth from below, crispy sheets. It’s a life-
I would like to change the combination.
You can also avoid using the heater as a bonus, hopefully this will save you a bit of energy.
You may think that heating the mattress is only useful in the cold months, but if you walk, exercise a lot, or just have pain in your muscles, joints, or pain in your whole body, sometimes lying in bed, it is good to have a little warmth under the body.
We 've talked about ways to relieve muscle soreness before, but this should have a place on the list.
In my apartment, the air gets very dry, which means a small humidifier can play a big role in a comfortable sleep
Don't wake up because of a throat or sinus.
I know I want to buy a small ultrasonic humidifier for my bedroom, but after studying several models I decided to buy a pair
Duties as a odor diffuser.
When you add a few drops of essential oil to the water after filling the diffuser, It moistens the room and fills the fog with a pleasant smell.
For something as big as a small horn or desk lamp, the diffuser is a lovely spalike in my bedroom.
I took 200-
Milliliter version with color also-
Replace the LED so I will turn it off completely when I want to sleep.
Sometimes I put it on a cool blue or purple if I'm reading.
If you want a more powerful humidifier, Wirecutter's team has better suggestions for models large and small
But my bedroom is small and it works for me.
No matter which humidifier or diffuser you buy, please be sure to clean it regularly;
Dirty can cause serious health problems.
One of the best things I bought for a relaxing, luxurious bedroom might be something that looks unusual: an air purifier.
Living in the city means that even if you keep your windows closed, the indoor air will be dusty and dirty.
After spending a year or so in my apartment, I had a dry cough that was only noticeable when I woke up, and quickly disappeared after the shower.
I didn't think much until I found myself vacuuming a lot of dust from places I 've recently cleaned, and I think the air purifier might stop some dust from getting into my lungs.
I picked up Wirecutter's budget.
Friendly recommendation of reproductive Guardian
Here are some things to remember about air purifiers.
When I talked to Wirecutter's science writer and editor, Tim heffnan, about another story about air purifiers, he explained that buying one would not normally make immediate changes.
You may notice that after a few hours, or as long as the air in the room is circulating through the purifier, the air will "feel" cleaner.
However, what you will really notice is that you feel much better over time.
It's not so much "Ah, the air is cleaner now" as it's "My strange cough a few weeks ago seems to have gone," that's exactly what happened to me.
Again, your mileage may vary, but if you are allergic, have a respiratory illness, or live in a place where the air is not the best, the air purifier can have a big impact.
Invest some resistance if you are allergic
Pillow cases and mattress linings are allergic.
They have helped a lot, and they are not very expensive.
They are not universal medicines, but they will keep mites away from the noise and help you breathe better at night.
An unexpected benefit of the counter
Allergic pillowcases are, they usually have a crisp, smooth feel when you lie down, which can actually keep your head cool overnight.
Some people hate this feeling because the poor quality of the suit will also feel a little plastic-y and tough.
So make sure you buy a high quality set
Or have a chance to touch them before you buy them.
Similarly, Wirecutter has good advice on which products to buy. For me, anti-
Allergic pillowcases have three purposes: they make my bed more appealing, keep my pillow cooler at night, and help me breathe easier while sleeping.
I can't ask for more from my sheets.
