A weighted blanket can help you sleep better and feel more relaxed by applying gentle, consistent pressure to your body, similar to a soothing hug.
This pressure promotes a feeling of security and safety, reduces the stress hormone cortisol and increases the release of serotonin and melatonin. These hormones help you to calm down and fall asleep more easily.
Weighted blankets are often recommended to relieve symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, sleep disorders, autism, and other sensory processing disorders
