How Indoor Plants Can Help You Rest Easy In The Colder Months

This winter, Dr Deborah Lee, Sleep Expert from Doctor Fox working with Get Laid Beds, is encouraging a natural remedy to improve sleep quality: incorporating indoor plants into your sleeping space.

Beyond their aesthetic appeal, indoor plants offer health benefits such as air purification, stress and anxiety reduction and natural humidification – all of which promote a deeper, more refreshing sleep.

With some simple care, plants such as Snake Plants and Lavender can thrive through winter, enhancing your wellness and bringing you closer to a restful sleep.

To create an ideal and restful sleep sanctuary this winter, leading sustainable bed company, Get Laid Beds, is encouraging people to pair natural wooden beds with indoor plants for a cosy, health-enhancing bedroom environment that bring the best of what nature has to offer into the home.

So, here are the Top Plant Choices for a Better Sleep:

Peace Lily

Peace Lily is perfect to have in the bedroom during the colder months as it adds moisture to the air and is known for its ability to filter airborne toxins – meaning it can also help you fight off any germs brought on by the colder weather.

Lavender

Most people know lavender for its relaxing scent – what they perhaps don’t know is how much it helps to lower stress and anxiety levels, promoting a calm and peaceful environment. Lavender is a wonderful plant to have close to your bed as it will promote a serene environment that also smells gorgeous!

English Ivy

For those that are not aware of English Ivy, it’s known for reducing airborne mould, which aids your respiratory health. Having English Ivy in the bedroom will ensure that you’re breathing in clean air whilst you sleep, protecting you from nasty colds this winter.

Aloe Vera

Aloe Vera is a commonly known plant; however, a lot of people don’t know about how beneficial it can be for your sleep health. It is a highly resilient plant, making it perfect to add into a bedroom setting, and like the Snake Plant, releases oxygen at nighttime which helps with air quality.

This winter, the combination of quality-crafted wooden beds with soothing houseplants in a bid to embrace natural remedies is the solution for getting a more restful sleep.
