Feeling Uncomfortable During the Night? Invest in Wool

Do you struggle with your sleep? Do you find it hard to get comfortable and find yourself tossing and turning throughout the night? If so, you are not alone, and you do not have to suffer.

While many of us can underestimate the importance of putting time and effort into choosing your choice of bedding, it can make all the difference to you getting a comfortable and restful night’s sleep.

A wool quilt can change the way you sleep. If you want to find out more, keep reading.

Regulate your temperature

One of the reasons for poor sleep could be that you find yourself getting too hot or cold during the night. On a cold winter’s night, there is nothing better than getting into a warm and cosy bed.

However, if your bedding is made from synthetic fibres, it can cause you to overheat, which may result in you sweating and feeling uncomfortable. Halcyon Dreams has the answer: wool.

Wool is temperature regulating, which means that it keeps you at the right temperature. Should you sweat, the wool will wick away any additional moisture, keeping you cool and comfortable. Did you know wool can retain up to 30% of its body weight in moisture and only releases it when the conditions are dry enough?

Of course, it also works the other way around. Should you often feel the cold, wool will keep you warm and cosy, so that is one more thing off your mind.

It keeps allergies at bay

For those who suffer from allergies, the type of bedding you choose is imperative to how you sleep at night. Wool quilts are naturally resistant to dust mites, which can help to keep your allergies at bay. You can look forward to a peaceful night’s sleep without any sneezing or sniffling. Your partner will thank you for that as well!

Wool is natural

As a natural material, wool is gentle next to your skin. If environmental factors are important to you, it is good to know that you are choosing a sustainable option.

Wool is durable, and you can expect to enjoy your wool quilt for many years to come. When it does eventually reach the end of its life, it can naturally be broken down by the earth in a way that synthetic fibres cannot.

Make Life a Breeze with a Wool Doona

 

Life is complicated enough without making more work for yourself. That’s why Halcyon Dreams wants to tell you more about how a wool doona can have a positive impact on your life.

Not only does wool help you sleep better, but it is also easy to care for, so that is one less thing for you to worry about.

Make the best bedding choice

Whether you are looking for a new doona for yourself or someone in your family, wool is the best choice you can make. It is a natural material, which means it’s breathable. Not only this, but wool is clever and works with your body to keep you comfortable.

It has temperature regulating properties, which means it keeps you cool when the weather is hot and warm when the temperatures drop. It can even retain any additional moisture that is created while you sleep. Did you know it can hold up to 30% of its body weight in moisture, only releasing it when the environmental conditions are dry enough to do so?

With this, you might think that your wool doona is sure to get dirty quickly, but it is actually the opposite. Wool is naturally odour-resistant, and it self-cleans, as it would for a sheep. That means less washing for you!

Wash only when necessary

Of course, when you are buying a doona, you want to know that it’s easy to care for. Adding trips to the dry cleaners is probably not high on your list of priorities. At Halcyon Dreams, our washable wool doona lets you clean from the comfort of your home.

That said, you doona doesn’t need washing too often. A spot clean or simple airing is often sufficient to freshen up your bedding. Hang it outside in the breeze or over a large space, such as the bannisters, before placing back on your bed and enjoying its comfort once more.

Should you want to wash your doona, set your machine to a wool setting and use a detergent that is suitable for wool. Once your doona has been washed, hang it out to dry. This is best done in the air on a warm, breezy day. Ensure your doona is completely dry before putting it back on your bed. While the outside may feel dry, the layers inside may still be wet.

Add a Touch of Luxury to Your Bedroom

When you go away to a luxurious hotel, you may find that you sleep better and enjoy your surroundings. Why save this only for when you go away? With a little inspiration from Halcyon Dreams, you can recreate the look and feel of luxury within your bedroom.

Start with getting your bedding on point

It almost goes without saying that to get that touch of luxury, you need a bed and bedding to help you drift off peacefully. With an Australian wool underlay, your bed will never have felt so comfortable or more inviting.

The softness the underlay creates helps you to get comfortable, but it does not end there. It also helps you to remain comfortable throughout the night. As our underlays are made from 100% natural sheep wool, they will help regulate your temperature throughout the night. Say goodbye to getting too hot during the night or struggling to stay warm. Wool will keep you just right.

The same can be said for an Australian wool quilt. It is the perfect covering for you, and it will work in harmony with your underlay.

Finish off the look of your bed

Now that you have got the essential bedding sorted, it is time to think about those finishing touches for your bed. You may have noticed that something all luxurious bedrooms have in common is their cosy and inviting look.

You can achieve this in different ways. If you want to keep your bedroom looking fresh with clean lines, why not opt for crisp white bedding? This timeless option will remind you perfectly of hotel rooms.

Or, if you would like more colour in your bedroom, search for inspiration on places like Pinterest or Instagram for some beautiful colour-themed bedrooms.

Do not forget to complement your bed with a luxurious runner at the end of your bed and some scatter cushions to complete the look.

Do not forget about the other details

Of course, there is more to a bedroom than just your bed. Aim to give your surfaces clutter-free to encourage you to relax.

If you want to really go for it, why not add some beautiful fresh flowers, or you could choose some faux flowers to achieve a similar look.

Remember to consider your lighting choices. When creating a relaxing atmosphere, you want to have the option to dim the lights and create ambient lighting. Beautiful bedside lamps is a good way to achieve this. Keep a bright ceiling light available for those times when you need to see clearly!
