Celine has become much calmer while sleeping due to her weighted blanket.

Actually, as long as I can remember, I have always slept very poorly. Since my childhood, I had a lot of nightmares as a small child, I dream very vividly, and I just have a lot of dreams. In my youth, I used melatonin from the drugstore for this.

At one point, I started an internship, and somehow I couldn't sleep before my morning shifts. So much so that at one point I didn't sleep a whole night. It was probably an unconscious kind of tension. I was afraid of oversleeping and therefore couldn't sleep. The next night I had to work, and as a result, I fell asleep during the day. Especially towards the end, when we had a meeting.

“As a child, I used melatonin from the drugstore. Later, I followed sleep therapy, where I received breathing exercises. This helped, but my dreams remained extremely vivid. I moved a lot. At night, I crawled all over my bed and woke up because I was stuck in the blankets, which gave me an enormous claustrophobic feeling.”

“The first nights I mainly noticed that I still slept very restlessly. I really had to get used to it, but after a week I started sleeping more calmly. I was moving less at night under that weighted blanket. When you are under the blanket, it actually isn't heavy, but it keeps you in place.”

“I personally had one of 6 kg, which is now at my parents', and now I have one of 7 kg, because I do notice that I like the feeling of it lying around me. Besides that, I noticed that I fell asleep more easily and also woke up more rested. Simply because I was less preoccupied with poor sleep.”

“I can still occasionally have a restless night where I wake up at night, but actually, I fall asleep again every time. In winter, I still have my morning mood, because it's still just dark, but I often wake up before my alarm. Then I notice that I have slept reasonably well and that I can get out of bed. I never had that before.”

“In summary, I just notice that I get through the day better. Of course, there are other things that still affect my sleep, like what time I go to bed and evening shifts, but the weighted blanket is a good tool to improve my sleep quality.”

“I really like the color of the covers: a beautiful, neutral color that fits within my interior. The summer cover is very soft and the winter cover is really one of those cozy fleece blankets you just want to snuggle under. The weighted blanket itself works fantastic and I sleep much better under it. Ultimately, that is the biggest gain for me.”
