The bedroom – a place where we spend a third of our adult lives or even more if we’re into weekend lie-ins. Perhaps you furnished it a long time ago, or maybe you’re just moving in. Either way, this is where you get one of your superpowers: the ability to recover both physically and mentally from your daily life. Sleep is essential, yet sometimes so elusive. But there are a couple of things you can adjust in your bedroom to make it more sleep-friendly just in time for the upcoming holiday season. It’s time for a Christmas bedroom makeover.

Let There Be Dimmed Light
Have you heard of circadian rhythms? They’re your natural sleep cycles and are organically calibrated by light. According to science dimmed lighting causes the body to start producing melatonin, a hormone known as the ‘sleep superfood’. So investing in a couple of lightbulbs with a dimmer or a low-wattage night lamp is totally worth it.
Amber Is The New Blue
The color of the lighting is equally important. Research shows that you’re more likely to doze off in a room with amber lighting instead of blue light coming from devices like phones and laptops. Removing all screens from the bedroom and replacing them with warmer lights will make for a healthier sleep environment.

Feel It In The Air Tonight
Calming aromas such as lavender, chamomile, and jasmine can induce sleep organically. Something as small as an aroma diffuser and a couple of essential oils can make a big difference when you’re setting that sleepy atmosphere in your bedroom.
Keep it cool
In the evening, your body temperature decreases naturally. It’s recommended to turn down the bedroom heating by 6–8°F compared to the rest of the apartment. Besides, it’s so much cozier to wrap yourself in a warm wool duvet when the air gets cooler.
Dream A Little Dream On Me
The mattress is your bed’s heart and soul. It affects your posture, breathing, and body temperature, making your sleep a dream or a nightmare. An organic mattress made of wool is breathable and moisture-wicking. It allows you to be warm in the winter and cool in the summer, which results in more hours of deep sleep. There are various options for wool mattresses you can explore in our shop section. You can also have a look at our selection guide.
Combine the mattress with some organic sheets and wool pillows to complete the Christmas bedroom makeover, and the famous jazz lullaby will become the soundtrack of your bedtime.
All I Want For Christmas
When it comes to festive decorations, we tend to neglect the bedroom. But a little more of that holiday atmosphere will make you feel more relaxed and cozy. Elements as simple as a string of fairy lights, a mason jar filled with pinecones, or a small potted Christmas tree will make you enjoy those long December nights better. Make yourself a hot cocoa with marshmallows, get your favorite book, and indulge in your new festive bedroom.
So try this Christmas bedroom makeover and you’ll be giving yourself one of the best gifts: better sleep.
