These are some of the most effective products I have found to work for me
As soon as I am ready to go to sleep I’ll set up my audio track – I listen to the same thing on repeat so it never pulls me back to consciousness. I found the problem with pillows is there’s a sweet spot and your partner can still hear it if you compensate for that, where by these are great when you are tossing and turning, and usable as a face mask too for the ultimate in private space. A range available but this is my favourite
Initially I was dubious about foam, assuming it would just make me hot, and either far too soft or too hard. Initially we bought the Leesa but they arent available in the UK anymore so we got Emma to replace it and its just as good. You don’t feel each other move and the temperature control is great – I wouldn’t go back to a regular mattress now. https://amzn.to/3N0gGJ0
- It’s not a great idea to be checking the time as you count the hours you are still awake, however if you do need to sense check it the light projected on to your ceiling is a great way of a quick check without looking at your glaring phone or any other screen for minimal waking when you can’t help but have a glance. https://amzn.to/3N42dM2
