Insomnia

All for a good night’s sleep

The lack of good sleep, for any reason, can impact your mental health. Anxiety and depression can be caused by a bad night's sleep, which can further keep you from sleeping well.

Weighted blankets found to improve sleep of insomnia patients

The researchers found that participants in the weighted blanket group were almost 26 times more likely to experience a decrease of 50 per cent or more in their insomnia severity compared with the control group, and they were nearly 20 times more likely to achieve remission of their insomnia.
