When we recently heard that a mattress company was hiring for a job to sleep - yes! Sleep and also get paid for it, although we cracked a joke or two, deep down our collective reaction to it was: dream job! Juggling to strike a balance between work and life, our sleep cycle more often than not tends to be affected. A sound mind and body are necessary to get through everyday tasks.
We’ve curated this blog keeping in mind how much good sleep is important for one to function. We have listed down a few essentials that come in handy for a sound sleep.
Sleep Essentials You Need
1. The Right Mattress
We are all familiar with the story of ‘The Princess and the Pea’. Right? Who knew a pea could cause discomfort in an individual’s sleep? But hey! So can a mattress. When your agenda is to get a good night's sleep it is imperative to choose the right kind of mattress that will assist you in getting one. Not only does a good mattress help you in getting a restful sleep but also helps in maintaining your body posture without you feeling bed sores or a heavy feeling when you wake up.
2. Eye Masks
If you are someone who cannot stand even the slightest ray of light in your vicinity while sleeping, then a pair of good-quality eye masks is just the thing for you. At Nestasia, you can get your hands on silk sleep masks that will assist you in good sleep. Available in different colours and prints you’ll be literally spoilt for choices.

3. Essential Oils
Aromatherapy includes inhaling essential oils for a positive impact on the mind and health. Research suggests people having difficulty sleeping may benefit from incorporating certain oils into the night routine. You can use oil diffusers from Nestasia to pour a few drops of your favourite essential oils on top of it for a deep and pleasant sleep.
4. Comfortable Pillow
Your pillow impacts your sleep as much as your mattress or sheets. A proper pillow will prevent stiffness in the neck and shoulder. A quality pillow aligns your spinal cord when asleep and supports the neck and shoulders.

5. Scented Candles
A smell can significantly impact the time taken to fall asleep. Moreover, it also contributes to the quantity and quality of sleep. You can try scented candles for the bedroom to promote good sleep. Not only that but scented candles also influence memory formation and dreams when you are asleep. Lavender, Rose, Sandalwood, etc., are a few aromatic candle choices that foster relaxation.
6. Cotton Quilts
Your sleep and overall bedding items are interrelated. The quality of your bedding can contribute to how comfortable you are while sleeping. Sheets and blankets affect how your body temperature fluctuates during the night. Hence, one must opt for sheets and blankets that are breathable. Organic cotton and linen fabrics that breathe well and provide adequate comfort are suggested. A cotton quilt is ideal for restful sleep. Also, if you are a snuggly sleeper and love a chilly room temperature with a comfy blanket, you can always look for a lovely throw blanket at Nestasia.
7. Suitable Lighting
Switching off the overhead lights or dimming them a few hours before sleep is recommended. Place a lamp on your bedside table and switch to dim, warm lights around bedtime for some deep sleep.
8. White Noise Machine
A consistent white noise is ideal to block noise if you have anything that might disrupt your sleep. The device plays calming sounds like a gentle waterfall or rustling wind to relax your mind. It helps drown out distractions, promotes focus, and takes your mind off stress. Simply plug in the device and play it for a restful sleep. With pre-programmed sounds and customization options, use white noise apps if you’re looking for a portable alternative.
9. Chamomile Tea
Chamomile is widely regarded as a mild tranquillizer and sleep-inducer. Chamomile is particularly effective at making you feel sleepy because of its chemical structure. Instead of Chamomile tea, you can also use Chamomile oil to get sound sleep.

10. Earplugs
Earplugs are another great catalyst for getting a good sleep. These come in three different materials - foam, silicon, and wax. The product is designed to block out background noise and help you sleep peacefully.
Conclusion
In addition to all these essentials listed above, it is also imperative to take care of your mental well-being. A racing mind can sabotage your sleep trip. Try deep breathing, gradual muscle relaxation, or guided visualization to quiet your mind before bed. This can aid in the transition into sleep and reduce racing thoughts.
