Simple Ways to Create a Calming Bedroom for a More Dreamy Sleep ...

When it comes to creating the right sleep environment, there are a couple of ways you can ensure you set your bedroom up for a calm and more restful night of sleep. 

From picking out the right colour scheme and indulging in a little luxury bedding to paying attention to some of those mood-setters (or breakers) like light, noise and temperature, there are plenty of ways you can set yourself up for a better night’s sleep. Wondering where to start? Here are some simple ways to create a calming bedroom for a more dreamy, sheep-filled slumber. 

1 Create a space that you love with decor

Creating a bedroom that you love is key to achieving a peaceful night's rest, and the decor in your bedroom can significantly impact your mood and set the tone for your sleep environment - after all, your bedroom should be your sanctuary. While things like colour and texture can promote relaxation and calmness, other decoration pieces can also play an important role. Whether it’s a sentimental piece you love or a plant that inspires rest, think about the things that you love and how you can incorporate them into your space. 

Before you get to decorating, keep in mind that you don’t want to clutter your space too much. Too many objects on display, and you might find that your space can be distracting, rather than peaceful. By striking the right balance between all these elements, you’ll be well on your way to achieving the dreamy slumber you deserve.

2 Think about your colour scheme

Your bedroom colour scheme can play a role in creating a calming sleep environment. It makes sense that certain colours can have a positive effect on our mood (think about how relaxing blues and greens can make us feel). Different colours can evoke different moods and emotions, so it's important to choose those that promote relaxation and tranquillity. Darker colours tend to be a popular choice for cooler months, helping to create a cosy atmosphere. Light colours on the other hand can create an illusion of more space. Soft, muted tones like blues, greens, creams and greys are popular choices for creating a peaceful sleep environment, known for their calming, appearances that bring a little bit of nature indoors. 

If you prefer warmer colours, consider muted shades of pink, peach, or beige, which can also create a calming atmosphere. Remember, if the colours you choose for your walls, bedding and decor all complement each other, you end up with a cohesive look. 

3 Curl up in luxury bedding

When it comes to creating a relaxing bedroom, one of the simplest ways to elevate your sleep experience is by having a beautiful bed to curl up into. There's something about the feel of quality sheets and plush pillows that can make even the most restless sleeper feel like they're sleeping in a five-star hotel. And let's be honest, who doesn't love the feeling of crawling into a freshly made bed with crisp, clean sheets? 

Yet there’s one bedding item that can often be overlooked when you’re treating yourself to a little luxury – and that’s your mattress! Mattresses do a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to making our beds more comfortable, so it’s no surprise that investing in a quality mattress can make a huge difference when it comes to your sleep. 

Luxury mattresses are designed with your  support and comfort in mind, giving you the best chance at having that dreamy, counting-sheep-kinda-sleep. 

4 Set yourself up for a more successful night’s sleep

While you’re creating a bedroom that promotes relaxation, it’s important to also consider other factors that can affect your sleep quality, like light, noise and temperature. A dark, quiet space is best when it comes to your sleep environment, and you may even want to consider investing in blackout curtains or blinds to block out any unwanted light. If you’re sensitive to noise, try using earplugs or a white noise machine to drown out any disruptive sounds that may interfere with your sleep. 

Temperature is also important when it comes to getting the most out of your sleep. Some sleepers may prefer a warmer room, while others may love a cool breeze. Choosing more breathable bedding fabrics, like cotton or linen, can also help promote a comfortable sleep environment, so you can wake up feeling refreshed and energised.  

5 Sweet dreams await

Remember, everyone's sleep preferences and needs are different, so don't be afraid to experiment with different sleep strategies until you find what works best for you. With these helpful tips in mind, you'll be well on your way to that dreamy, sheep-filled slumber, so you can wake up feeling ready to take on the day ahead.
