**ALL OPINIONS , AS ALWAYS, ARE EXPRESSLY MY OWN **
I have struggled with anxiety for as long as I can remember, but 2020 and this pandemic made it even more difficult.
Where anxiety took its toll the most was on my sleep. Hard as I tried, my usual coping strategies were just were not creating the restful space I needed.
That’s when I discovered Hush.
You can imagine how thankful I was when the wonderful people at Hush sent me a 2 in 1 weighted blanket of my very own to try.
The 2 IN 1 Weighted Blanket has:
The Inner Weighted Blanket
Two Covers - 1 Iced and 1 Classic
Weighted Blankets were created to help patients suffering from Sleep Anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Sensory Processing Disorder, Anxiety, Stress, Insomnia, and just traditional issues with falling asleep.
The weighted blanket scientific secret is DTPS, or ‘Deep Touch Pressure Stimulation’. DTPS reduces cortisol, also known as ‘the stress hormone,’ while releasing serotonin ‘the happy hormone’ and melatonin ‘the sleep hormone.’ For me the DTPS in this blanket just feels like the best hug ever.
When it arrived I immediately noticed the weight while lifting the heavy box inside the house. When I unpacked it I was shocked at just how well distributed the weight actually was and the ease at which you could switch out the covers.
I am known for being very selective when it comes to quality and I fell in love with the textures of both covers instantly… they satisfy both my need for warm, fuzzy and cozy with the classic cover as well as my desire for smooth, soft and cool with the Iced 2.0.
The first night in bed the weight felt cozy and comfortable - not restrictive. It eased the tension in my body right away leaving me relaxed and able to fall asleep effortlessly.
In the nights since I have slept more soundly, experienced less restless tossing and turning and I am for the first time in a long time actually staying asleep and waking up to the sound of my alarm instead of before it. It has given me peace of mind and relief from my anxiety.
