Organic Mattresses anyone?
January 23rd, 2012
As some of you may know my main focus here at the store is a healthy/organic/non-toxic sleep environment. We spend a third of our life sleeping – a crucial time when our bodies rest, repair, rejuvenate. Why would we want to do that on a mattress that is laden with all sort of nasty toxins? I won’t go into detail here as to what you will all find in your mattress but if you google “toxic substances in mattresses” you will find not shortage of information to make up your own mind.
Instead let me tell you the benefits and reasons of why to sleep on those beautiful organic mattresses that I carry – I feel very passionate about them, so I have not shortage of arguments as to why one should sleep on these!
For one the materials of these mattresses are of a very high quality and are very pure. The rubber foam that is used is 95 to 97% pure rubber milk, with 3 to 5% zinc added to help in the baking/setting process. The natural flame retardant in these mattresses are layers of organic wool and the outer encasing is certified organic cotton. That’s it! Pure and simple, nothing superfluous, just ingredients that work well together and will last a long time – these organic mattresses last up to 40 years!
When you lay on these mattresses you will find that you will feel suddenly very peaceful. Your spine will re-aligne itself, your body temperature will adjust, your sleep becomes more restful. I am not saying that you will experience miracles over night. Your body needs to get acquainted with this new way of sleeping, but your body will thank you in the long run. I am still looking forward to going to bed every night, although I have had my organic bed now for 4 years now. Just feels sooo good stretching out on my organic mattress!!!
But I would suggest you try that out for yourself! I have all the different elements of this organic sleep system as floor models here at my store. Come and visit, lounge, rest and form your own opinion. Look forward to seeing you!
