Every day, as a sleep coach, I hear from exhausted parents whose children are not sleeping or sleeping very poorly. Fortunately, it doesn't have to stay that way! Sleep coaching is a needs- and attachment-oriented approach that can provide concrete help to these families, significantly improving their quality of sleep and, consequently, their quality of life. Through coaching, the reasons why a child sleeps poorly are evaluated, and the optimal approach to improve the situation is determined for each individual case.

In my continuous search for solutions to sleep problems, I became aware of the weighted blanket: The weight of the blanket, which acts on the entire body, helps children and adolescents to relax. In addition, the release of melatonin, a hormone important for sleep, is stimulated, while at the same time fewer stress hormones are produced. Thus, the blanket represents a very suitable method to improve falling asleep and the overall sleep situation.

The therapeutic blanket works for all ages. In my work as a social worker at a school, I am in daily contact with children, teenagers, and parents. I often hear that students of various ages have difficulty concentrating, paying attention, or sitting still. In such cases, I also frequently notice that the affected children and teenagers have trouble relaxing and falling asleep in the evenings. I then gladly recommend the therapeutic blanket to "wind down" and fall asleep more easily. After all, restful sleep is a basic requirement for being able to concentrate in class the next day, or for adults, to perform well in their daily professional lives.

Meanwhile, my whole family sleeps with a weighted blanket. And my children, in particular, especially love the cozy fabric.

A great product that I highly recommend.
