You’re likely familiar with the word ‘insomnia’. For those that have been fortunate enough to never deal with it, insomnia is the inability to get enough sleep, whether it’s being unable to fall asleep or staying asleep. For chronic sufferers, it can potentially lead to health problems. For the rest of you that have in fact heard of it, the term you may not be familiar with is ‘semisomnia’.

Semisonia is a term coined by Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert who has researched the science of sleep for more than three decades. Stanley travels to various parts of the world using his expertise to conduct public and healthcare professional lectures on everything that has to do with sleep. Semisonia is his definition of the daily poor sleep and low-grade daytime sleepiness that we often experience on a regular basis. Unlike insomnia, it’s not a medical condition.

The topic of semisonia is part of the “Better Sleep with Dr. Stanley” series which is being published on the Vispring website. You can read more about it as well as previous entries in the series by clicking here.

Speaking of Vispring, if you’re looking to avoid dealing with semisomnia or want a potentially effective way of tackling a case of insomnia, a Vispring mattress will help you do that. Vispring mattresses are luxurious beds that have been used by royalty thanks to their impeccable craftsmanship, resulting in what are some of the world’s most comfortable beds.

Achieving a better night’s sleep is one people take quite seriously. There are plenty of apps and devices intended to help you rest and countless studies have been dedicated to discovering how humans can perfect the science of sleep. Regardless of how you go about better rest, you’re going to need a mattress to do it.

The average mattress lasts for about seven years, but that’s if you’re going to choose a run of the mill mattress. British newspaper The Times knows just the right type of mattress you should choose, and two of the ones mentioned in its “How to choose a mattress” article are none other than Hästens and Vispring. In terms of Hästens, the article specifically singles out the Hästens 2000T which delivers different firmness on each side, an ideal solution when sleeping with someone whose weight may differ significantly. The 2000T is meant to feel as if you’re sleeping on a cushion of air regardless of what position you may be resting in.

Check out the article as it’s full of useful tips on buying a mattress.

In our previous blog, we told you about the luxury lifestyle magazine Robb Report Online and its article talking about Swedish bed maker Hästens and the work that goes into creating its beds. Hästens is also mentioned in the printed version of the Robb Report, which has an even deeper look into the process of creating the company’s one-of-a-kind beds.

Let’s take a look at a brief overview. As one of the essential and sustainably sourced components of a Hästens bed, the horsetail hair is prepared to precise specifications before it is separated into varying lengths and micro curls prior to being teased and fluffed. The hand-teased horsetail hair provides moisture wicking, support, and air circulation to the mattress. Pine is also used, which is obtained from northern Sweden and is used to make the base of the mattress. Flax and cotton are also utilized to provide ventilation and dust blocking. Each mattress is then hand stitched with the spacing and quantity varying based on the Hästens model.

You can learn more about the Hästens process by picking up the January 2018 issue of the Robb Report, dubbed “The Travel Issue”.

The magazine’s online component appropriately called Robb Report Online receives over 400,000 visitors a month.

The Robb report article titled Sleep Study: Hästens Has Refined the Art of Mattress-Making for More Than 150 Years is featured in the magazine’s “Shelter” section and it involves an insightful write-up and slideshow showcasing the tremendous amount of work, craftsmanship, and meticulous care that goes into the making of Hästens beds.

Last time we told you a little more about Swedish luxury bed maker Carpe Diem and what it’s all about. Today we’d like to tell you a little more about its history which begins with a man named Börje Thuleskär. Mister Thuleskär had dreams of becoming a chiropractor, which fueled his passion to learn more about human anatomy and physiology. As Thuleskär gained knowledge, he began to see the importance of sleeping well and how it affected the body and mind. With that in mind, Thuleskär decided to invest in a high end bed.

The bed Thuleskär bought failed to live up to his expectations. It was during an outing to the island of Kornö that Thuleskär had an epiphany of sorts, mesmerized by the beauty of the island and its natural landscape. Walking barefoot over the rocks, Thuleskär relaxed on a bed of wild heather, completely immersed in nothing but the natural sounds as the heather molded to his body shape. It was during this moment that Börje Thuleskär was inspired to create a bed focused on comfort and achieving a genuine sleep experience.

Today, Carpe Diem Mattresses of Sweden are exported to more than eleven different countries.

What do you think of when you hear the word “cotton”? Chances are you’re envisioning a soft, incredibly comfortable material that’s simply, well, wonderful! When used in a mattress, you know you’re in for a lovely night’s sleep. When it’s combined with other natural materials like horsehair, your mattress becomes a trip to a restful paradise, lulling you to sleep almost instantaneously.

While human beings have lungs to help them breathe, often we fail to realize that the skin is another organ that requires breathability. With millions of pores running through our skin, it’s essential that each individual one can breathe properly in order to push out toxins. On top of that, when your skin can breathe it means you’ll remain dry with less risk of sweating.

Have you noticed how your cotton shirt assists with keeping you cool during the summer season? It works in a similar way on a mattress. Cotton creates ventilation and wicks away perspiration, helping you keep cool at night while enjoying a restful night’s sleep.

Hästens has a sterling reputation for its premium mattresses utilizing all-natural materials, including cotton. A better night’s sleep awaits you in 2018.

If there’s one person who can be relied upon to deliver impeccable décor advice, it would definitely be lifestyle maven, television personality, and businesswoman Martha Stewart. With a successful media empire, Stewart’s advice has been used many to create inviting living experiences.

Among the several publications Martha Stewart has emblazoned her name on, one of them is Martha Stewart Weddings, a quarterly magazine which focuses on all things matrimony related. The Winter 2017 issue includes a product roundup centered around “Hygge”, a Scandinavian concept focused on coziness and comfortable conviviality with feelings of well-being and happiness. Hygge has since become an important facet of certain Scandinavian cultures since it was introduced in the 19^th century.

When it comes to names like Swedish manufacturer Hästens, most people know comfort and well-being are key characteristics of its products. As such, the Hästens Down Slipper Boots are one of the products featured in Martha Stewart Weddings. These slippers are ultra comfortable, made with goose down and feathers to deliver pillow-soft cushioning.
