Sleep Healthy

Finding a healthy pillow

Customers ask me all the time how to choose the right pillow for a healthier night’s sleep. Should they get an organic cotton pillow? They’ve heard natural rubber is good but which one feels right? They’re used to sleeping on down but want to switch without losing the soft feeling. On and on.

I wrote an article to help make the choice a little easier, and it was just published on organic.org. I provide an overview of the many healthy, and often interesting materials used to make all natural and organic pillows. Take a look and let me know what you think: A Healthy Pillow

You can find a number of healthy pillows on our commercial web site The Clean Bedroom

Are you a Highly Sensitive Person?

A colleague of mine just introduced me to her blog: The Sensitive Traveler, which illuminated a world of individuals who suffer from being overly sensitized to their environs. High Sensitivity is a real issue for some and as I read about it, the syndrome could explain how some people react better than others to their environment and situations that remove them from the comforts of home.

For more information about what defines The Highly Sensitive Person, visit the web site of Dr. Elaine Aron , herself a Highly Sensitive person, and bestselling author of The Highly Sensitive Person and it's companion books, The Highly Sensitive Person's Workbook, The Highly Sensitive Person in Love and The Highly Sensitive Child.
