Getting a good night’s sleep can be down to having a peaceful bedroom environment.

Have you laid there at night, unable to drift off to sleep?

You can read my 5 ways to create the perfect night’s sleep it might help. But if you are not feeling content in your current bedroom you might want to look into planning a bedroom renovation.

One of my points was about the decoration of your bedroom

There is more to decoration than just the colours of the walls, obviously, this is a factor but let’s explore more about it.

Peaceful Bedroom Environment

Technology in the bedroom

This is an important factor and has been proven without a TV in your bedroom you should sleep better

Now I know a lot of people use their TV’s to help them drift off, but are there better ways?

The no TV in the bedroom comes down to the blue light theory

Your brain can mistake the blue light on electrical devices for daylight, which in turn keeps you awake

Same principle applies to mobile phones, tablet devices and laptops. The brightness from the screen will only trick your brain into staying more awake and alert

If you are able to read in bed with a bedside light rather than a TV to get to sleep, you are more likely to have an undisturbed night

Fabrics used to create comfort

Having a soft bed lining and duvet will help settle you.

The gentle fabrics will be firstly, more soothing on your skin to lay on, and secondly, create a more calming look to the room.

Those cushions or pillows on your bed, where you lay your head if they are soft and cosy, will aid your peaceful night’s sleep.

Comfort is key.

Curtains at the windows

Your curtains will act as a light barrier from the outside.

As well as help create that soft space you want to settle down in for the night, they dress a window.

Blinds and shutters are a perfect way to keep the noise and street lights out but also having those curtains softening the look will be more soothing.

Colour scheme

A colour scheme is down to personal taste. I love the style o these grey and yellow curtains something about them is so calming. A lot of people like to decorate their homes with seasonal themes, Autumnal colour schemes can be very soothing.

There has been research conducted into the best colours to help with a good night’s sleep.

Travelodge found that people who slept in blue bedrooms had the longest night’s sleep.

Fashion trends and styles change over time, but the quality of sleep will always be important.

If you do not want to paint the whole room navy blue you could try just the one wall the bed faces.

Making a feature of that one darker wall by adding lighter colour artwork or shelving will help break the colour up.

These are just a few ideas that can help make your bedroom peaceful.
