Up at the Witching Hour? An Evening Routine Can Help You Stay Asleep All Night

When the air grows chill and the darkness creeps in earlier each day, our thoughts naturally turn to the spookier side of life. While ghouls and goblins might haunt our dreams, a more common nocturnal terror can be just as frightening – those restless nights when we find ourselves “up at the witching hour,” tossing and turning instead of sleeping peacefully. Luckily, we have a magical solution for these nighttime woes that doesn’t involve a cauldron or spellbook: a trusty evening routine.

If you’ve ever experienced the dread of insomnia or midnight awakenings, an evening routine may be the solution you need for a full night’s rest. In this blog, we’ll explore different evening routines and how they can help you get to sleep and stay asleep. So don’t be afraid of the dark! Read our tips below to perfect your own evening routine and get some truly bewitching rest.

The Dreaded Witching Hour

Every one of us has experienced a night where we’re inexplicably awake at the witching hour. Maybe it’s the eerie silence or the howling wind outside that seems to conspire against our peaceful slumber. For some, this midnight wakefulness is a frequent occurrence. Be it stress, anxiety, or modern distractions like smartphones, there are many reasons behind these sleepless nights. Unfortunately, they come with a frightful toll on our well-being.

Interrupted sleep can leave us feeling drained, groggy, and zombie-like. Our ability to concentrate, our mood, and even our immune system can suffer from the lack of restorative rest. We can’t all be witches with the power to cast spells for deep sleep, but there’s a different kind of magic at our disposal – evening routines.

The Magic of Evening Routines

An evening routine is like a gentle enchantment that prepares your body and mind for a peaceful night’s slumber. By establishing a regular set of activities and habits before bedtime, you can signal to your body that it’s time to wind down and prepare for rest. The science behind evening routines is simple but powerful. By consistently engaging in calming activities, you help lower your heart rate, reduce stress, and create an atmosphere conducive to sleep.

Some effective practices for evening routines include meditation, reading, journaling, or enjoying a warm cup of herbal tea. These rituals can soothe your senses and quiet the stresses of the day, paving the way for a peaceful night’s rest. It’s like casting a sleep spell around your bedtime!

A Sleep Spell for All Seasons

The beauty of an evening routine is that it’s entirely customizable. You can create your own ritual, ensuring it aligns with your unique sleep needs and preferences. Here are some tips to help you get started:

Set a Consistent Bedtime: Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends. Consistency reinforces your body’s natural sleep-wake cycle.

Plan the Next Day: If you’re often kept awake at night worrying about the next day, try creating a to-do list or schedule. This can help you feel in control of your daily activities and help reduce stress. Journaling can be a useful tool for reducing stress as well.

Unplug and Unwind: An hour before bedtime, put away the screens. The blue light from devices can disrupt your sleep. Instead, engage in relaxing activities like reading, gentle stretches, or practicing mindfulness.

Create a Comfort Zone: With a Flexabed, you can adjust the bed to the perfect position to enhance your comfort. Find that sweet spot where you feel most relaxed and at ease.

Dim the Lights: Lower the lights in your bedroom to signal to your body that it’s time to rest.

Avoid Heavy Meals and Stimulants: Try not to eat large meals or consume caffeine and alcohol close to bedtime. These can disrupt your sleep.

Stay Active: Regular physical activity can improve the quality of your sleep. However, try not to exercise too close to bedtime, as it can have the opposite effect.

By following these steps, you’ll be well on your way to creating an evening routine that works for you. If you need more inspiration for crafting your own dream routine, read these tips as well. Pairing these nightly rituals with a Flexabed will elevate your sleep experience even more so!

While many are out hunting for the best pumpkin in the patch or searching for the spookiest Halloween decorations, we celebrate the season a little differently. At Flexabed, we believe that fall is the season of coziness, and there’s no better place to get cozy than a comfortable adjustable bed.

In an adjustable bed, you can elevate your relaxation with ease. So light a scented candle, get some fluffy pillows, and let’s dive into all the ways you can achieve maximum coziness this fall in an adjustable bed.

Sip, Snack and Relax in Comfort

Snuggle Up and Stay Close

Fall is a season for togetherness. Whether it’s watching the leaves fall from the trees, taking leisurely strolls through the park, or simply enjoying each other’s company, the cozy feeling of companionship is all around. If you and your partner have different sleep needs, that shouldn’t force you to sleep apart. With a split queen or split king Flexabed adjustable bed, you can snuggle up together as much as you like this season!

Each of you can independently adjust your side of the bed to find the perfect position, ensuring both of you have a restful and enjoyable night’s sleep. Snuggling up, chatting about your day, or simply holding hands in your comfortable adjustable bed can bring you closer this fall.

Embrace Fall with a Comfortable Adjustable Bed

As fall brings beautiful change and renewal, it’s the perfect time of year to embrace good change ourselves. Embrace more coziness and connection this season with a comfortable adjustable bed. From enjoying delicious fall snacks to immersing yourself in captivating stories or snuggling up with your special someone, an adjustable bed is your ticket to making the most of this enchanting season.

We’ve all been there. Tossing and turning at night. Checking the clock over and over. Watching the hours roll by, and failing at every attempt to fall asleep faster. Few things are more frustrating than thinking about how sleep deprived you’re going to be the following day while feeling powerless to do much about it. 

At Flexabed, we’re all for promoting healthy sleep habits and quality rest with our line of luxury adjustable beds. As such, we’ve compiled a list of tips to fall and stay asleep. If drifting off to dreamland is an issue for you, try some of these tactics to get relaxed and ready for sleep.

1– Try the Military Method

The military method was initially developed to help pilots fall asleep in less than two minutes flat! This method is also referred to as progressive muscle relaxation. This trick involves actively and strategically relaxing the body one muscle group at a time. You begin by relaxing the muscles in your face including those inside your mouth. Then you drop your shoulders to release tension, allowing your hands to drop down by your sides. Next, you exhale, relaxing the chest. Next your legs, thighs, calves. Then you clear your mind for 10 seconds, imagining a relaxing scene. It takes some practice but can be a great way to wind down and practice mindfulness at bedtime.

2– Manage Lights/Avoid Electronic Devices

Bright light has an effect on the body’s circadian rhythm, which is what keeps people awake and alert during the day. Conversely, the absence of light at night tells the body it’s time to rest. The blue light emitted by electronic screens– like computers, televisions, and cell phones– interrupts this natural circadian rhythm. This makes it more difficult to fall asleep and to achieve deep, rejuvenating rest.

Try to avoid screens for at least 30 minutes prior to going to bed! Replace that screen time with relaxing music, meditation, or reading to help the mind and body relax.

3– Ignore the Clock!

Checking the time repeatedly while you toss and turn is counterproductive. The more aware you are of time, the more anxious you’ll tend to become about losing sleep. This will only exacerbate the problem for people with insomnia. Try removing any time-keeping devices other than your alarm clock from your bedroom. Even better, turn the clock away so you can’t see it from bed.

4– Crank the AC

Your internal body temperature actually plays a key role in your biological clock and sleep cycle. Your body temperature drops after you fall asleep, and a cool, dark bedroom helps to boost melatonin production. Most people fall asleep faster in temperatures between 60 and 67 degrees Fahrenheit. Even if you’re a cold-natured person, you may want to try this trick for falling and staying asleep at night! This tip can also prevent waking up in the middle of night from becoming overheated or sweaty.

5– Avoid Caffeine and Carbs

It’s no surprise that the food and drinks you put into your body have an impact on sleep. It’s true that large amounts of carbohydrates can cause drowsiness. However, after a carb-loaded meal, people tend to sleep for a short time, then toss and turn the rest of the night.

Foods with high-fat content are actually better for promoting restful sleep. It’s best to avoid carbs for at least 4 hours before turning in at night, and caffeinated beverages for about 6 hours prior to bedtime. Instead, try chamomile tea and nuts for a bedtime snack. The tea contains calming agents and almonds and other nuts are high in fat and protein.

6– Try a White Noise Machine

If you live with others and are sensitive to noises at night, falling asleep quickly is likely difficult. If someone in your house is watching TV, cleaning, or talking, it can be difficult to shut those noises out and get some shut-eye. To solve this issue, try a white noise machine. White noise machines emit a low, droning hum that calms the mind and allows the body to relax while muting outside noises. 

7– Get the Right Bed for You

None of these tips or tricks will do much good if you’re not working with the right bed/bedroom. For this reason, it’s important to ask yourself this question: Are you setting yourself up for success when it comes to falling and staying asleep? Your sleep environment can be just as important as some of these other tips.

Consider your mattress and bed frame. Are they serving your sleep needs? If it’s time to upgrade, check out our Flexabed luxury adjustable mattresses and bed frames. They can be completely customized to best meet your sleep needs and preferences so you can achieve deep, restful sleep every night.

Get your adjustable beds for seniors at Flexabed!

A doctor’s recommendation isn’t needed to warrant an adjustable bed. Perhaps you know someone who would like to watch TV or read in bed without craning their neck. An adjustable bed provides a comfortable position wherever the sleeper wants to go. That freedom of comfort is one of the many reasons seniors and their families come to Flexabed for adjustable beds.

Flexabed adjustable beds offer a range of customizable positions that may help with the specific needs of individuals with diverse medical conditions. By allowing users to elevate or adjust different sections of the bed, our beds could provide targeted support and relief. For potential assistance, you could consider an adjustable bed for back pain, arthritis, sleep apnea, and more. Flexabed adjustable beds also have the potential to enhance comfort and promote better health for a variety of medical concerns.

Acid Reflux Relief

Elevating the upper body using a Flexabed adjustable bed creates a slight incline that can aid in reducing acid reflux symptoms. By using a raised angle, gravity can assist in keeping stomach acid in the stomach and preventing it from reaching the esophagus, promoting better digestion and minimizing the discomfort caused by acid reflux.

Arthritis and Joint Pain

The ability to adjust the bed to a more comfortable position could offer significant benefits for individuals with arthritis or joint-related conditions. By finding the optimal position, the strain on the joints is reduced, resulting in decreased pain and discomfort. This relief can allow individuals to experience improved mobility, potentially allowing them to engage in daily activities with less restriction and discomfort caused by their condition.

Adjustable Bed for Back Pain

The flexibility of Flexabed adjustable beds could alleviate pressure on the spine and offer targeted support to specific areas of the back. This capability proves especially beneficial for those dealing with chronic back pain or conditions like herniated discs, as it allows them to customize their sleeping or resting positions for optimal comfort. By reducing pressure on the spine, adjustable beds could promote spinal alignment and contribute to improved overall back health.

Circulation Assistance

Elevating the legs using a Flexabed adjustable bed could have multiple positive effects on the circulatory system and provide relief for various conditions. By elevating the legs, blood circulation can be enhanced as gravity assists in returning blood from the lower extremities back to the heart more efficiently. This improved circulation could help reduce swelling (edema) and alleviate symptoms associated with conditions such as varicose veins or deep vein thrombosis, where blood flow may be compromised.

Insomnia Aid

Adjusting the head or foot of the bed to a more comfortable position could significantly impact the sleep quality of certain individuals. By finding the optimal angle for their head or foot elevation, some people experience an easier time falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night. This customized positioning can alleviate discomforts, such as nasal congestion or lower limb swelling, allowing some individuals to achieve a more relaxed and restful sleep, which can lead to improved overall well-being.

Post-Surgery Recovery

Adjustable beds offer a comfortable and supportive sleep surface, ideal for post-operative recovery periods. By allowing for customized positioning, our beds could reduce pain and promote healing. With Flexabed, individuals can experience optimal comfort and support during their recovery, potentially promoting pain management and the healing process.

Pregnancy Assistance

Adjustable beds can offer pregnant women comfort and versatility, catering specifically to their unique needs. With the ability to effortlessly adjust the positioning of their upper body or legs, our beds can empower expectant mothers to find relief from various common discomforts associated with pregnancy. One key advantage is the potential alleviation of back pain, a prevalent issue that many pregnant women encounter. By elevating the upper body, the adjustable bed allows for proper alignment of the spine, which can reduce the pressure on the back and promote relaxation.

Sleep Apnea

Choosing to sleep in an elevated position can have a profound impact on individuals with sleep apnea. The slight incline created by the elevated position aids in keeping the airway open, which can reduce the likelihood of blockages that lead to disruptive breathing patterns. This improved airflow not only could promote a more restful sleep but also could decrease the frequency and severity of apnea episodes, potentially enabling individuals to experience uninterrupted periods of deep sleep.

Find Your Angle in an Adjustable Bed that Supports You

It’s important to note that while Flexabed adjustable beds could offer relief for these medical concerns, they should not replace medical advice or treatment. Consulting with a healthcare professional is recommended to determine the most appropriate course of action for individual needs. With this in mind, know that if you are looking for a way to potentially boost your pain relief at night, there’s an angle for you in a Flexabed.

Tips for Choosing the Best Mattress if you have Chronic Back Pain

If your back hurts often, you need a really firm mattress to offer a lot of support, right? Well, not necessarily. The experts say that the best mattress for lower back pain is a personal choice of what feels most comfortable to each individual. The appropriate amount of firmness is a personal preference, just like the “correct” temperature to make a room comfortable.

It’s an important choice since most of us will spend the next several years on the mattress we order from the showroom. Considering how miserable the pain can be from nerve and muscular problems, degenerative disc disease, arthritis, sciatica, and other back pain, the mattress can either be a source of relief or one of the major things that can aggravate these conditions. A comfortable bed can work with pain medication and skilled medical oversight to lay the foundation for restful, restorative sleep. (more…)

This Spring, help mom and dad get a great night’s rest with a luxurious king size innerspring mattress! At Flexabed, our specialty is creating adjustable beds designed to improve comfort and convenience, and we offer two innerspring selections for those beds (or to purchase separately).

Our innerspring and innerspring / memory foam combo mattresses are both available for Premier and Hi-Low SL models, with the innerspring also being an option for our Value Flex beds. So help Mom and Dad enjoy Spring in the most relaxed state imaginable on the best springs money can buy!

Why Pick a King Size Innerspring Mattress

Our innerspring mattresses offer a great range of potential benefits, especially for those who suffer from back pain or joint pain. Thanks to the Flexabed technology that is behind the design of our mattresses, the springs offer the perfect combination of extra-responsive support and motion isolation for those who need it. In addition, the durable, supportive surface provides comfort and stability right where it’s needed most, at the major pressure points– shoulders, hips, and knees.

This unique combination of responsive coils with supportive cushion filling enables innerspring mattresses to remain firmer than other types while still providing unbeatable comfort. With all these aspects working together in tandem, it’s no surprise that innerspring mattresses are one of the most established types of mattresses on the market today.

Or Consider a Memory Foam / King Size Innerspring Mattress

If you’re looking for a mattress that can adapt to your parents’ sleep position, an innerspring/memory foam combo is an excellent choice. Not only is it softer near the top, but it also provides plenty of support where needed through the innerspring core. It is especially ideal for people who tend to get hot when sleeping as its more open design promotes optimal airflow and keeps sleepers cool throughout the night.

Our innerspring/memory foam mattress has a multi-layered quilted topper and solid non-slip base, which provides maximum comfort while allowing the mattress to move along with the bed frame’s movement. If your parents struggle to stay cool during sleep or find themselves shifting positions often, this combination is a great option.

Spring for a Flexabed for Mom and Dad

Flexabed offers customers an extensive selection of mattresses when it comes to comfort and affordability. Again, our innerspring/memory foam combo is available in Premier and Hi-Low SL models, allowing for a range of firmnesses and making for an excellent option for sleepers with joint issues.

Additionally, our innerspring mattresses are durable, easy to customize, and come in three options – Premier, Hi-Low SL, and Value Flex – so that you can find the perfect one to meet your parents’ unique needs. Each mattress is made with quality materials to help them get a good night’s rest every night. A comfortable mattress from Flexabed means investing in years of restful nights, so this Spring, why not spring for a king size innerspring mattress for Mom and Dad?

Great sleep is important, but it’s hard to achieve that in the wrong bed. Let’s face it, if you’re over the age of 30, you’ve probably dealt with some degree of back pain in your lifetime, and you know how debilitating it can be. Waking up with back pain is the epitome of starting your day on the wrong foot, but what if changing your sleep set up could help to eliminate or at least diminish that back pain? If you’re looking for the best mattress for back pain look no further than Flexabed, they might be able to help.

Finding the Right Mattress

There are a lot of factors to consider when you’re shopping mattresses and adjustable beds. Finding the right mattress for you that addresses your specific sleep needs and preferences, in a lot of ways, comes down to personal choice. That said, if you’re looking for the best mattress for back pain, there are some things to think about when you make your selection. Finding a mattress that is engineered to possibly provide pressure relief and support for your spine is a great place to start.

There are a few things to look for in a mattress if you suffer from back pain, and they are as follows:

• Support: If you deal with back pain regularly, it could be beneficial for you to sleep on a supportive mattress that helps you maintain spinal alignment throughout the night. Correct alignment should support the natural S curve of your spine, keeping pressure off your back. If your mattress doesn’t offer the necessary support, your hips and other body parts could sink too far into the bed, possibly creating misalignment that often results in back pain.
• Firmness: When it comes to mattress firmness, there is no one-size-fits-all option. The firmness of your mattress will depend on how you sleep. But also for those with back pain, that “the firmer, the better” rule may not necessarily apply. A too-firm mattress might not provide the necessary spinal support through contour that other mattress options can.
• Mattress Type: Mattresses that incorporate memory foam can potentially help alleviate back pain by cradling the body, relieving pressure points that can become painful after a night’s sleep. At Flexabed we offer a range of mattress types engineered to accommodate the comfort of all types of sleepers. Learn more about those mattress options in our blog about choosing the right mattress for you. At the end of the day, your comfort is what matters most. If the mattress doesn’t feel comfortable for you, odds are, it’s not the one.

Memory Foam and Latex

The mattress types most commonly recommended for sleepers with back pain are memory foam and latex. Both of these mattress options offer exceptional support and contouring that might help to keep the spine aligned and happy. The memory foam and latex mattresses work with your body’s natural curves to support you for restful sleep. If you are dealing with daily aches and looking for the best mattress for back pain, it might be time to reevaluate your current setup, and see if a Flexabed helps!

Getting deep, restful sleep each night is imperative to our overall wellness, but how do you ensure you’re completely set up for max rest success? One thing you can do is get an adjustable bed. There are many benefits of sleeping on an incline, as making that adjustment to your sleeping position may help with a manner of conditions and issues.

Deep, Restorative, REM Sleep

Stage 3, deep REM sleep is the time during which the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. When you are sleeping on a completely flat surface, that restorative sleep might not be quite as effective, particularly if you deal with certain health conditions. The CDC estimates that 1 in 3 Americans is not getting enough sleep, and this could potentially be due to inability to achieve that important REM sleep. Sleeping in an adjustable bed may potentially help sleepers get more productive, regenerative sleep at night.

Bye Bye, Reflux

According to the American College of Gastroenterology, an estimated 60 million Americans experience acid reflux at least once per month, and 15 million people experience it daily. This terribly uncomfortable burning sensation often intensifies when you lie down. Since the symptoms of acid reflux, also referred to as heartburn, can get worse when you’re lying flat, propping up can potentially help affected individuals minimize the symptoms. In an adjustable bed like the ones in the Flexabed line, it’s incredibly easy to raise the head of the bed so you’re at an incline.

Respiratory Disorders

Many people also struggle with different respiratory disorders such as sleep apnea, which are typically affected by gravity. Theoretically, elevating the upper body can help to reduce symptoms and consequently improve sleep. Sleep apnea, snoring, and even post nasal drip can all seem like minor issues, but they can actually take a significant toll on the quality of your sleep, and each of these issues could potentially be improved by sleeping at an incline in an adjustable bed.

Better Circulation

Another great benefit of an adjustable bed is the potential to stimulate healthy blood circulation. You can actually position your bed base to put you in a zero-gravity position with both the head and legs elevated. This position enables more blood flow to the heart, and can also help allow veins to contract more effectively. This elevation can also help combat the appearance of varicose veins by supporting more even blood throughout the body. For this reason, an adjustable bed is also a great option for people with heart conditions. Sleeping at an incline means more blood can reach the heart promoting better circulation overall.
Brain Detoxification

According to a study by the National Institute of Health, the process the brain uses to detoxify itself during sleep improves when the body is elevated even as little as just five degrees. This study showed that the glymphatic system functions more effectively when a person sleeps in an inclined position. The glymphatic system removes toxins from cerebrospinal fluid, the substance that surrounds and nourishes the brain. It is believed that sleeping in an inclined position can extend the amount of time spent in deep, REM sleep, therefore allowing the glymphatic system more time to remove those toxins.

Find all the benefits of sleeping on an incline with Flexabed. When you find the right bed for you, you will be set up for sleep success, and you’ll love the extreme comfort and convenience only Flexabed can provide as well. Shop our line of luxury adjustable beds today!

Choosing the Right Mattress for You

When it comes to shopping for mattresses, there are so many options out there that it may become a little overwhelming, particularly if you’re not sure what makes the most sense for you and your specific sleep needs. Our line of mattresses at Flexabed features six distinct types so you can select the best mattress for you– or as a dealer, you can help your customer find the perfect mattress for their needs.

Memory Foam Mattress–

Our Flexabed memory foam mattresses cradle your every curve while providing the perfect support for all your joints and pressure points. Molding perfectly to the shape of your body, this mattress provides comfort and support like you’ve never felt before.

Great for:

• Side sleepers who have high impact areas at the hips and shoulders
• Back and stomach sleepers, especially those under 230 pounds, as the memory foam cradles the body

May not be the best option for:

• Hot-natured sleepers/people who tend to run hot when sleeping
• People who need to be able to move around easily on top of the mattress

Innerspring/Memory Foam Combo–

Our Flexabed innerspring memory foam combo mattresses combine the traditional support offered by innersprings, with the luxury and comfort that comes with memory foam. These mattresses feature superb tailoring, and durability– the sturdiness that comes with springs and the comfort that comes with memory foam.

Great for:

• Side sleepers who have high impact areas at the hips and shoulders
• Back sleepers, as the coil system provides support while bending and bouncing to respond to the shape of your body
• Great for combination sleepers, or people who change positions during sleep, as they are softer near the top, but still provide plenty of support through the innersprings
• People who tend to run hot, or get hot when sleeping, as the more open design promotes greater air flow, and is generally cooler to sleep on

May not be the best option for:

• People who prefer a softer mattress type
• Couples sharing a bed, as movement can be readily felt (though these couples should look into our split king options, in which each sleeper can choose the mattress type that works best for them)

Gel Memory Foam–

Flexabed’s gel memory foam mattress option creates a cooler sleeping surface for a refreshing and rejuvenating night’s sleep, perfect for hot natured sleepers. The gel-infused foam actually works to wick heat away from the body while eliminating hot spots on the surface of the mattress.

Great for:

• Hot-natured sleepers/people who tend to run hot when sleeping
• Side sleepers who have high impact areas at the hips and shoulders

May not be the best option for:

• Cold natured sleepers

Latex

Our natural latex mattress provides the softest feel of all, and offers the dynamic support of a custom-molded mattress. It is made with a 100% natural, rubber-latex core constructed with talalay latex.

Great for:

• People who prefer a firm mattress
• People with joint pain, as the resilient material is able to contour to the body just enough to support proper alignment
• Light sleepers as the latex material is great for motion isolation, limiting disturbances from a tossing and turning partner

May not be the best option for:

• People who prefer a softer mattress type
• Hot-natured sleepers/people who tend to run hot when sleeping
• People who would have difficulty moving a heavy mattress when necessary

Low Profile

Flexabed’s low profile mattress option reduces the overall height of a bed by 6 inches. It is also handcrafted from a high-density polyurethane foam core for quality and comfort.

Great for:

• People with limited mobility, as it’s easier to get in and out of bed
• People who prefer minimalism in style, or a less bulky look that works well with contemporary furniture

Innerspring Mattress

Our Flexabed innerspring mattresses are available in soft, medium, and firm options, each featuring a high-density comfort layer pad constructed from polyurethane. The innerspring unit itself is innerbonded to ensure lasting durability, maximum support, and total comfort for sleepers.

Great for:

• Those who require extra support for the major pressure points– shoulders, hips, and knees
• People who tend to have back pain, as the springs offer extra-responsive support that can help with proper spinal alignment

May not be the best option for:

• People who would struggle to move a heavy mattress, as this type needs to be flipped and rotated from time to time for even wear
• Couples sharing a bed, as movement can be readily felt (though these couples should look into our split king options, in which each sleeper can choose the mattress type that works best for them)

People are all different with different bodies, different sleep needs, and different preferences. That means the best mattress for one person, may not be the best for the next. For this reason, our team at Flexabed diligently to handcraft a variety of mattress types to suit every type of sleeper out there. Find the right one for you today!
