Daylight saving time is about to end. If the “extra” hour has you walking around in a haze the first weekend in November, try these tech items for a good night’s rest:
Cooling Bedding
A room that is about 68°F is ideal for sleep. If that’s not possible, look for cooling mattresses, blankets, pillows, sheets, and pillowcases that use special materials to prevent heat buildup. Some products even use circulating water or air systems to regulate bed temperature.
Mood Lighting
Darkness signals your body to wind down. Smart bulbs that dim gradually can help ease the transition to sleep, whether it is earlier due to the season or simply your routine.
Dehumidifier
Humidity levels in your room can affect sleep quality. High moisture can cause restlessness or breathing issues. A dehumidifier can help maintain comfort. A humidistat, which works like a thermostat for moisture, can maintain a humidity level around 60%.
Soothing Sounds
White noise and guided meditations can help quiet your mind. Android users can explore “Sleep Sounds” in the Bedtime settings. iPhone users can try “Background Sounds” under Accessibility. Many free apps also offer calming options.
Smart Beds
Some beds adjust automatically through the night using built-in sensors. These features can improve your sleep by changing firmness, temperature, or position as your body shifts.
Even one or two minor upgrades can make a big difference. Whether you are adjusting to a new schedule or simply looking for better rest, using the right sleep technology can help you wind down, sleep more deeply, and wake up refreshed.
