We often feel rewarded when our grind and hustle is recognized and reaps the outcomes it deserves. However, one of the things that is sacrificed with this commitment to grind culture is our sleep and time for rest. As we transition into a healthier mindset and approach to things, we know that giving ample time to rest and reboot is as equally important as working hard. This established, today’s product will be about blackout curtains as a tool to peaceful and restful nights, as recently installed for one of our Makati clients.
Before diving into our product, let us first take a moment to refresh the importance of sleep. To be able to work means that we have to be physically moving and engaging. Proper sleep replenishes and refreshes our energy levels, positively impacts our physical performance, enhances our reaction time and of course our overall immune system. Cognitively, adequate sleep allows sharpness and focus when doing our tasks, improves memory, critical thinking and decision making skills, problem-solving abilities and helps us to properly regulate and navigate our emotions.
With a home product as simple as a blackout curtain, all these could be achieved. This also means that our home decor has a direct impact on our performance and how we run our lives. These are small investments to look out for. Now, we will be elaborating our ultimate guide to restful nights with blackout curtains.
Blackout curtains provide a hundred percent coverage for our spaces. These are weaved with thicker fabrics to serve such purposes. This is the best option for bedrooms because of the security and privacy it provides. Furthermore, these are available in pleasing, soothing colors to make sleep more peaceful and pleasant.
As mentioned, blackout curtains provide full coverage. With the right amount of darkness, home decor as common as curtains can help the body produce sleep hormones. With this environment, one can definitely achieve fuller, deeper and proper sleep cycles. Because these curtains serve as a sort of barrier from outside light, one is able to sleep in and wake up at the body’s natural timing and not because of distractions like morning sunlight and unnecessary noises. Speaking of noises, blackout curtains are also known as effective sound absorbers. This helps create a more ideal sleeping environment in the bedroom. These thick drapes can also act as insulators, regulating a room’s temperature in accordance with our needs.
Our Makati client made a great decision buying these curtains. The city is in the heart of the metro so distractions could obviously disrupt one’s rest. Luckily, we just resolved this with blackout curtains, the healthy, urban way to embrace the dark!
