A good night sleep is essential to balance our mood and creativity. It doesn’t matter how much coffee we drink, if we don’t rest well at night, we’ll really struggle the next day.
But wanting more sleep isn’t always achievable, when worries about tomorrow and the day’s events are the most common causes that bother us at night. So in order to get more sleep, we try diverse products available on the market – although not always efficient.
It’s good to know that real insomniacs have found actual remedies for a blissful night. Here are the products they swear by, and can’t live without.

Manta Sleep Mask - 100% Blackout Eye Mask
Amazon.com
Light sleepers won't be able to spend a night without the Manta sleep mask after trying it. The adjustable cups block all light without adding any pressure to your eyes.

Highly suggest!" Lindsay
