Ten Tips For the Best Sleep You Have Ever Had

Posted June 19th, 2013 in Uncategorized by cnelson

We often take our sleep and the benefits that go along with it for granted, when really sleep is an essential activity to not only our physical health but our mental health as well. A better sleep can make such a difference in our lives, a fact that many don’t realize. Here are ten tips for a better sleep, resulting ultimately in a healthier, happier life.

Prioritize Sleep

Sleep is really the next healthiest thing you can do for your body everyday besides eating healthy and exercising. The more importance you assign to your sleep, the more of a health benefit you will receive.

Find Your Balance

Not all of us need the same amount of sleep. Eight hours may be good for some and not enough for others. Work out the amount of sleep that is the best for you.

Keep a Regular Routine

Our bodies, when put into a sleep routine, are programmed to a rhythm of activity and inactivity. The more regular you are in your sleep patterns, the better the body will adapt to that particular pattern, leading to a deeper, more beneficial and more restorative state of sleep.

You Need Space

Invest in the largest bed possible you room can accommodate so that you can better allow yourself to have a more luxurious, undisturbed sleep.

Time in the Sun

Your body reacts to natural light waking you, and does the same for when it gets dark, prompting sleepiness and assisting your natural sleep routine. Make sure you get a reasonable amount of time outside each day.

Be Active

The more active and engaged we are during the day, the better we sleep at night. Make sure you partake in some amount of physical or mental exercise each day to get the most out of your sleep.

Ease Yourself into Bed

Try to avoid late night stimulation from caffeine, alcohol, or nicotine before going to bed. These stimuli, closer to bedtime, may knock your body off of its natural sleep schedule, causing you to lie awake or avoid a deeper sleep.

Relax Your Body and Mind

Before going to bed it is important you prepare yourself for sleep. Calming activities that slow your breathing and heart rate down, like reading a book or doing a word puzzle, are excellent for preparing you for bed. Find a routine that works best for you.

Right Atmosphere

Ensure that you are in a dark and quiet environment that is the ideal temperature for your sleep. This will not only help you fall asleep but will help you stay asleep, again promoting a deeper and more restorative sleep.

Invest in a Quality Bed

This is one of the most important tips for a better sleep. So many of us go out and buy a cheap bargain mattress that has bad support and hardly any pressure relief, a ticket for tossing and turning and excessive back pain. A good quality bed is the key to a good night’s rest, so make sure that you invest in a bed that is truly comfortable and provides the right feel and support for your particular figure. It is important that you sleep on a bed that is personalized to you. Carpe Diem and Vi-Spring are both excellent luxury bed makers that build beds geared to provide the best sleep possible. These beds are designed to be fit to you, and exhibit the most quality and comfort of any other bed makers in the Ultra-Luxury category.

Miami Mattress Store Problems Addressed by Brickell Mattress

Posted July 27th, 2011 in Uncategorized by BrickellMattress

The Awful Truth – An Insiders View of the Miami Mattress Industry

Miami is an incredibly vibrant city growing at an astonishing rate.  With this growth, these people need to know where to find beds.  After living in the Miami area for over 6 years (Coral Gables, Key Biscayne, South Miami, and now Brickell), I’ve learned a thing or two about the Miami mattress industry.  This blog is intended to give you a brief understanding of some tricks and malpractices of local Miami mattress retailers, and the steps Brickell Mattress have taken to address them.

Miami Mattress Tricks and Out-Dated Business Practices Exposed!

1. The mattress with the highest profit margin will be promoted to you as the best.

Salesman are taught in the Miami mattress industry to sell you the “best” bed, when, in actuality, it is the bed the retailer makes the most money on.  Do your due diligence!  Read what the mattress is composed of and decide for yourself.

Does this really help you find the best bed?

2. Terrible Presentation and Out-Dated Mattress Collections

Let’s face it, mattresses are about as exciting to buy as used cars….but it shouldn’t be that way!  Miami mattress retailers such as zzzmattress, mattress firm, and mattress giant pack as many beds as they can into their stores, barrage you with sales signs and numbers at every corner,and light the store with anxiety-inducing fluorescent lighting.

To top it off, many of these retailers promote last year’s mattress lineup from the 3 S’s (Serta, Sealy, Simmons), as this year’s mattress collection.  Why do they do this?  They know that the customer really won’t be able to tell the difference and need to get rid of their excess inventory.

3. The Customer is Not Always First

I hate to say it because I’ve seen it, but some Miami mattress retailers will train someone for a week and then throw him/her out on the sales floor.  Do you want to be hassled by a pushy, unskilled salesman for a few hours while considering to invest thousands of dollars in a purchase?—I sure don’t.

Mattress lineups should be arranged in a layout convenient to the customer (segregated by firmness, type of mattress, price).  Unfortunately, more often than not, Miami mattress retailers have jumbled, jig-saw-puzzle store floors.

4. Owners are as Old as Dinosaurs

There’s a reason why marketing in the Miami mattress industry hasn’t changed in say…..50 years- owners are old!  The sheep-jumping-over the fence, free shipping marketing strategies Miami mattress stores use are about inventive as a rock. The names of some mattress products I’ve seen are reminiscent of the 1950s: “Go-go gadget Sleep Massager!” We’re in the 2000s, it’s time for mattress companies to catch up with the times.

 

Brickell Mattress- New, Honest, Inventive

Brickell Mattress is owned by a group of young entrepreneurs aged 24 to 33.  We have the products and services to make every generation of consumer feel good. From the baby-boomers who are simply looking for honest, personal-tailored help to get them a better night’s sleep, to Generation X who want and expect service from a company up-to-date with modern day technology and social networking- Brickell Mattress works to serve all.

Now, we’re not perfect, but Brickell Mattress has attempted to address some aforementioned issues in the Miami mattress industry.  When people walk into our store we want them to instantly relax and feel at home.  Our collections of latex foam, airbeds, waterbeds, and adjustable beds are tastefully displayed amongst modern art. The store layout is designed to feel open, inviting, and convenient.  A sleep expert will greet you and ask if you’d like any help, but are trained to leave you alone if you don’t want it.  Each mattress is displayed with a “mattress menu”- easy-to-read material describing the composition of the bed. You are able to peruse this information at your leisure in our Free-Wifi Coffee lounge.  Ready to make a purchase?  Our fast checkout can get you an emailed receipt in under 2 minutes.  And for the crème-de la crème, Brickell Mattress offers the free VIP service of in-home installation.  Sorry Miami mattress retailers, there are new kids on the block.

Custom Mattresses Miami, Rotating Round Beds at Brickell Mattress

Posted July 26th, 2011 in Uncategorized by BrickellMattress

 

This Bed is in a Celebrity’s Home

Preferred Bed of Celebrities, Billionaires, Rockstars, Playboys

Nothing makes a statement like a circular, round mattress. Brickell Mattress, located at 1030 SW 8th Street in Miami, Florida, can even produce you one that rotates like in the movies. This is a must-have item for any successful bachelor. These are available in Latex Foam, and traditional innersprings.

Perhaps all you need is a rectangular mattress that is a little bit longer, like those recently ordered by a famous basketball player. Maybe you need one that is a little short for your RV or yacht. We can do all of this!!

All you need to do is determine what  shape you want (triangle, square, circle, parabola, etc). what the dimensions need to be, and finally what you want it made out of, and we will have it made for you in no time.

Call us For Advice 305.326.4000

You don’t even need to visit our showroom to order one. Simply call or email us for a quote.

All Sizes, Materials Available

Round Mattresses from $2000

Believe it or not, you can have a custom mattress built for a reasonable amount of money. While square/rectangular beds are easy because they are normally priced out at what the next biggest “Standard” size would be, even circular mattresses can be purchased for around $2000.

Of course, building custom platforms that rotate, or adding luxurious latex can increase the cost, but at the end of the day you do get what you pay for. Luckily, Brickell Mattress has eliminated the middlemen, so we’ve made it as low cost as possible. But then again, if you are looking for a customer mattress, price may not be a concern.

Many athletes are simply to large for a standard King bed. At only 80″ long, you can imagine how a 7′ basketball player might be uncomfortable. Luckily Brickell Mattress can produce all of the luxurious natural latex mattresses beloved by  “little people” in sizes large enough for even the biggest “big man”.

 

We’re Excited to help you find the solution to your sleep needs. One of our in-store designers will be more than happy to help you come up with the perfect bedroom defining mattress.

Coral Gables Organic Latex Mattresses, Natural Talalay Beds

Posted July 25th, 2011 in Uncategorized by BrickellMattress

Coral Gables is one of the finest cities in America, but until now there has never been a Mattress Store offering Natural Latex Mattresses in Coral Gables. Fortunately, we at Brickell Mattress™ decided to change that. Our Mattress Boutique, centrally located just outside of Coral Gables near Brickell, has Florida’s largest selection of Organic Talalay Latex Mattresses. In addition to Natura™- the #1 selling manufacturer of natural beds- Brickell Mattress also carries their store brand: Select Foam™.
Latex Beds have exploded in popularity for three reasons:

  1. Latex Mattresses are resilient; this means that they have the bouncy feel of spring mattresses, which is good for people that want the health benefits of a specialty sleep mattress, with the traditional feel they are used to.
  2. Latex is by far the most natural, “Green” material used in bedding today. Though not all latex is natural, all the latex used in beds at Brickell Mattress is 100% Natural, and is derived directly from the rubber tree. Because they are made with many yards of Wool and Cotton, our beds are considered completely Organic.
