The Top 3 Best Sleep Products and what they do

Sleep products of all kinds are blowing up the market. They are becoming more and more popular and the role of a healthy, deep sleep is getting increasingly prominent. Unfortunately, as good as this wave of attention to sleep is, there are also plenty of unnecessary and completely overpriced products on the market. From the classic sleep mask to humidifiers and cutting-edge sleep aids, everything is there. But which products are really useful, recommendable and bring a long-term improvement in sleep quality? We have summarized our top 3 best sleep products from three different areas, which you can find on the MonkiMind website. 

  • Sleep mask
  • Mattress
  • Supplement.

Enjoy!

The right sleep tool- Sleep mask

Light is one of the things that keeps our brain and body awake. Too much light on the retina inhibits or completely stops the production of the sleep hormone melatonin. As a result, we do not get tired. Blue screen light from your cell phone has the same or even a stronger effect. This also keeps you awake for an unnecessarily long time and disturbs your healthy process of falling asleep.

The solution: A sleep mask! A particularly useful tool for improving the quality of sleep is a sleep mask. You can’t always and everywhere completely darken your bedroom. A sleep mask ensures that no light reaches your eyes, and your day-night rhythm can adjust naturally. Melatonin is produced and you fall asleep. This makes you sleep more restful and deeper, and you feel fitter the next day.

The right place to sleep – Mattress

Sleep should be calm, restful and deep. However, this feeling does not always occur and you do not always wake up fit and alert the next morning. If you don’t feel regenerated the next day, but rather have back pain, it may be because your mattress isn’t right for you. This has a greater impact on our sleep than we think and is therefore essential for healthy sleep.

The solution: Find the right mattress. Unfortunately, this is not as easy as it seems. Mattresses come in different degrees of firmness, thicknesses, flexibilities and made of different materials. It is important that the mattress not only fits when you first try it out, but is also a good choice for the long term. The right mattress should be flexible, that is, give way in important places such as the pelvis or shoulders, adapt to the body and weight, but also be stable enough not to give way in the long term, causing unpleasant pressure points.

The right sleep aid – Melatonin Spray

Falling asleep does not always happen by itself. Sometimes we toss and turn in bed for hours and just can’t get to sleep. Accordingly, we wake up the next day tired and exhausted. This can be due to many factors: Inner restlessness, circling thoughts, stress or worries. If body and mind are under a constant current, the body produces no or too little melatonin. However, the sleep hormone, which we urgently need in order to sleep, can also be supplied to it.

The solution: Melatonin Spray. If the body does not manage to produce enough melatonin itself, you can try it with a melatonin spray. Simply spray it into your mouth and the added plant extracts will calm you down and make you sleepy. This is not a permanent solution, but it is a good alternative for emergency nights when sleep may not come on its own.
