John Blund Weighted Blankets

Studies in medical journals have connected the benefits of deep pressure stimulation to weighted blankets explaining their positive effects on sleep. Pressure of the blanket increases the production of happiness and sleep hormones (serotonin & melatonin). It also causes stress (cortisol) levels to drop. This makes you happy, sleepy, relaxed and able to fall asleep faster.

Technically speaking it works like a giant full-body cuddle.

John Blund is the name of a fictional character from Nordic folklore - more commonly known as the sandman. The identity uses a cuddly more abstract version of this character to wrap this scientifically sound and medically relevant "device" into a softer package, more fitting to the bedroom.
