Bedroom Colors for A Good Night’s Sleep

Your bedroom is a place of peace and relaxation, that’s why room colors should incorporate to your mood that bring a general peace and restfulness to the space.

The color psychology of your bedroom can significantly influence your mood and behavior, creating changes that ultimately affect your entire life. It is important to choose happy, positive, and encouraging colors, so it becomes a space that brings out the very best in you.

Selecting a color that can work with a wide array of colors is much better, as it allows a nice contrast which can enhance the overall look and feel of the bedroom. You want every color to complement your furniture, rugs, or modern art pieces that add personality to the space.

Here are some best color palette to consider for your bedroom:

Neutrals

A comfortable bedroom for sleeping should have neutral colors and a splash of cool hues. Neutrals do not have to be boring or dull. Plus, other colors match beautifully with neutrals, so we recommend going for softer tones to create a relaxing atmosphere.

Decorating with neutral colors especially when it comes to paint is a popular interior design idea that you can use. A neutral palette goes with everything. It provides an easy base to any room, allowing you to truly personalize your space.

Play around with more color tones. There are other ways to incorporate more hues in the bedroom. For instance, if you love red, don’t paint your wall red. Instead, you can add some art pieces in your bedroom with the color red or something similar in shade. Create an accent wall with your favorite shade of color.

Pastels

Pastel color schemes can be used with a variety of decorating styles. You can combine pastels with gentle whites or sophisticated grays and, every combination looks stunning to match the elegance and soothing charm of pastel hues.

Imagine subtle hues of orange, turquoise, coral, yellow, purple, and more. These colors are very relaxing, inviting, and soothing to the eyes. They send signals to the brain that you are in a place that is perfect for catching that elusive rest and sleep.

The rule of thumb here is to find the color that you are most comfortable in and you prefer. You can start by having some paint charts and samples from the local paint store and have it on some portions of your walls for your visualization. See and feel how the paint suits your lighting and the overall feel it gives your bedroom in the evening.

Take note that there are colors that look great in natural daylight but may look dreary in a dimly lit bedroom, or at nighttime. The right bedroom color should mirror your personality and your personal preferences. Even when considering the science of colors, choose a bedroom color that is ultimately meaningful to you.

Apart from bedroom color, other things may affect the quality of your sleep. Turn your bedroom into a space that is more conducive to sleep. One thing we know for sure, it’s that getting a good night’s rest boosts a person’s productivity.

We at Comfort Living Philippines focus on this. We give you the best options to upgrade the way you rest and sleep, whether you are in the market for a new mattress, bed frames, pillows, and linens. We have what you need.

Turning Your Bedroom Into Reading Wonderland

For book lovers, reading is one of the ways to relax and get away with stress. But where is the right place to read and make yourself comfortable? Nothing is more comfy and relaxing than our bedroom. 

It is the time for avid readers to curl up with a good book that feels like a vacation, a chance to escape and relax in their bedroom. Bedroom is the best place to get lost in the world. Here are some ways to turn your bedroom into a reading wonderland.

Brighten things with Good Lighting

The best time to read is during the night, no hustle, no unpleasant noise, no more distractions. During the day, natural light is ideal for daytime reading. However, during  the evening, you’ll need something beyond an overhead fixture to light  things up.

Task lighting, like a reading lamp, is designed to focus light in a specific area, rather than broadly illuminating the room. Look for a lamp that places the bulb 14 to 18 inches from the book you’re reading for brightness without shadows. If you change positions frequently when you read in bed, consider a light with an adjustable neck; some can even clip onto your headboard.

How bright should your light be? You’ll have to test it: We all need a little more brightening power as we age. Start with 60 watts, and work your way up.

Add Cozy Things in your Bedroom

Make your bedroom an ideal reading  wonderland by making it cozy and comfy. It will not be a comfy reading session without soft pillows, warm blankets and a spray of essential oils. Also  if you don’t want pain  in your neck as a reading souvenir, you’ll need a backrest  for support and to prevent hunching. For an ultra-cozy vibe, choose one in an ultra-soft fabric.

Snuggling up with a good book requires accessories. Adding these accessories  would be visually appealing to your eyes, relaxation to your skin and body.

Invest In A Stay-All-Day Mattress

Now this one is the most important of all. If you’re just sleeping on your mattress, we think you’re not using it enough. Spend more time on your mattress by also making it your main space for your reading session. I know it will take time to find books to read, and also make time to find the most comfortable mattress for you. Just make sure it’s on a top-rated, make-you-wanna-stay-awhile mattress. 

Store Your Book in a Mini Library

We all need a bookshelf for our books and we can put it  inside our bedroom so that it would be easy for us to get it once we want to read even in the middle of the night. Whether it’s a fancy mahogany bookcase or a pretty fabric storage bin, you’ll want a dedicated space to corral your books. 

You can also add decors like lights, flowers, or frames to make your bedroom a happy reading place.

Reading for some is an important way to handle stress and anxiety and to get lost in the real world. Making your bedroom a perfect reading wonderland is not impossible, you just need to follow those steps to make it happen.

Five Activities you can do in Bed

Even long before we got used to locking ourselves at home, many of us have already preferred staying indoors. This pandemic allowed us to reconnect and bond with our families. We also discover new and exciting things that none of us may have expected.  

Aside from our dining and cooking spaces, which probably are our favorite spots, our bedroom cannot come last. Our bedroom is one of the places that offers us optimum comfort thus making it a venue for several meditating and exciting activities. 

If you consider yourself the indoor type, then this blog is definitely for you! Here are some thrilling activities that you may or may not have done yet, which you may consider doing while at home. 

Breakfast in bed 

Have you ever felt so hungry and restless at the same time so early in the morning? Or have you thought about waking up to the smell of your favorite pancake and egg rolls? Well, who doesn’t? What makes breakfast in bed even more exciting is the thought that someone can take time to prepare it for you. Or if none, you sure can do it yourself. Self-love is just as important as romantic love.  

Just imagine munching delicious food while wrapping yourself up with a warm comforter while embracing the moment. It’s just and your breakfast. 

Warm cuddles 

It has been quite cold and gloomy the past few days, a sweater weather indeed. Some of you may have had a hard time waking up for your 7:00 AM classes or early morning zoom calls. You may even sometimes feel that your day is unproductive and lazy, but who can blame you for having an extraordinary bed time? It’s normal to be restless and crave for a pillow and bed company. What can make it more exciting is if you let someone share a cuddle session with you. Invite a loved one, a friend, your pets, or your favorite stuffed toys. Just make sure to enjoy it and do not let anyone interrupt your “me time”. 

Netflix & Chill 

It’s great to share a movie marathon with loved ones on your living room while munching your favorite snacks. Why not try doing it on your room this time? Let everyone stack themselves up on your bed, put off the lights, switch on the aircon, and grab a thick blanket for everyone. Add in some pizza and a nice bottle of wine. And hoorah, you are ready for an exhilarating movie night! We recommend you picking a horror or jump scare movie if you are planning to do it with friends or families, and a comedy film or series is a good pick too!  

Massage  

Surely, you had your share of sleepless and extremely stressful days. If you haven’t thought of loosening up just yet, this is a reminder to reward yourself with anything relaxing. You can try watching movies, or keeping yourself posted with the latest vlog your favorite vlogger just published, or get a massage at home!  

We know you are tired, so there is a small chance for you to pull over a visit in your favorite spa. This is why your bed could be the best route to do massage. It is surely going to feel more relaxing if you do it on your bed and you can sleep through hours and hours without the need to travel back home. After all there is nothing more recollecting than a whole body massage inside the comfort of your bedroom. 

Plan out and organize 

Are you feeling messy or is your mind all over the place? Allow your mind to do a backward trail so you can pick up everything you forgot or lost along the way. What will make this activity more mind-easing is if you do it on your bed. Grab a pen and your organizer or planner, and jot down everything that comes to your mind.  

After doing so, you can guarantee yourself a good breather and a huge sigh of relief. This is especially beneficial for students like you who are doing so many performance tasks, to parents who have so much bills to pay and errands to do or for professionals, who have lots of deadlines to catch. 

 

It’s nice to pause up and recollect yourself from time to time. And there is nothing more helpful than doing all your stressful thinking while lying down on your bed. Invest in a good bed or memory pillows to add in extra comfort to your lazy days. At Comfort Living, we offer comforting and affordable bed accessories just for you.

Benefits from Using Weighted Blanket

A weighted blanket, or gravity blankets, used to be available only at psychiatry and therapy clinics. Today, the blankets are widely available to anyone who needs help improving their sleep or treating certain sensory issues.

The deep touch pressure from the blanket stimulates the production of serotonin and dopamine, which are known to have a calming and relaxing effect.

This is one of the most appealing weighted blanket benefits.

Panic attacks can occur at any time, leaving everyone diagnosed with panic disorder vulnerable to the symptoms associated with this condition.

The use of a weighted blanket can reduce panic attacks because it promotes the production of serotonin and dopamine. In particular, this is true if the patient experiences nocturnal panic attacks. Weighted blankets can treat this problem naturally.


  1. Improves behavior in children with ADHD

Some children with autism or ADHD are able to concentrate better with the help of a weighted blanket. The idea behind it is that giving a child the feeling of security through the weight of the blanket can help them become more focused on the task.
