A stressful day at work, or a busy day socialising can make it tricky to switch off when the night draws in. Taking time for yourself and curate a personalised bedroom routine that can transform your sleep, and in turn, your mental wellbeing. Your bedtime routine should be anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes and the key is to keep your routine consistent. Read on to discover the a to zzz of sleeping soundly…

Taste

Brew your favourite cup of calming tea around 60 minutes before you want to sleep, to kickstart a calming bedtime routine. Keep this drink as something you only enjoy before bed, to help train your brain into calming with the taste.

Smell

Surround your senses with calming scents as you begin your evening ritual. Our range of luxury scented candles evoke nature’s calm, making them the perfect evening aroma. (Just remember to extinguish before climbing into bed). Lighting a candle in the bathroom whilst you carry out your skincare routine or finish your bedside book, will create a zen, at home spa experience, lulling you into calm.

Embers. The cinnamon scent found within our Embers Scented Candle will aid relaxation, with cedar notes that will help you fall into a deep sleep.

Wild Gorse. The vanilla notes in our Wild Gorse Scented Candle promote a sense of wellbeing, relaxing your mind and body, whilst the coconut aromas harmonise your routine with stress reducing scents.

Sound

Whether white noise, sleepy stories, or complete silence helps you drift off, sound is a powerful signal for your body. If you have had a stressful day, pressing play on some binaural beats or nature noises allows your brain to relax, allowing you to get a refreshing rest.

Sight

Once your night time routine has begun, put any screens away and turn ceiling lights off. Ambient lighting, such as our dimmable table or wall light designs are great options for ensuring your sanctuary carries you to bed with a soothing glow.

 

The colour of your bedroom plays a key role in the atmosphere. Blue and green hues evoke a sense of calm and tranquillity, akin to observing rippling oceans or soaking up the beauty of a green oasis, whilst light pink tones nurture you with feelings of comfort.

Touch

Cosy up with high quality furnishings that swaddle you with luxury and comfort. Our high quality wool cushions and throws are welcome additions to beds, creating dreamy deep sleeps and idyllic lie ins.

From head to toe, you deserve to feel comforted by your bedroom. When you have to leave your hibernation station, ensure toes are kept toasty with a soft Devonia Sheepskin awaiting your arrival.

Sweet dreams!
