Seeking Better Sleep Under a Weighted Blanket
By Kathleen Doheny
 
 -- Toddlers have long used “blankies” to help them feel secure, dry tears, and fall asleep quickly.
 

You may know how important a consistent bedtime and exercise routine are for a good night’s sleep. Maybe you have your alcohol and caffeine use down to a science, too. But what happens when you actually get to bed? What else can help you sleep better? Try these tips and tricks.

Now, some adults with insomnia, depression, and anxiety are rediscovering that feeling of security -- for a price -- in the form of weighted blankets.

But can a little extra weight really help you sleep better?

Not me, I detest even having the sheets tucked in. It would make me feel like I was under restraints in some institution.................................and I swore never again after the last time!
