As a nation, we’re suffering from sleep deprivation: one in six of us get by on less than six hours, a figure that sleep experts say is unhealthy.

Only one in five Brits get at least eight hours of sleep a night, according to a YouGov poll; most get seven hours' kip while one in eight (12%) manage on just five hours.

Sleep is critical to good health, helping your body repair itself as well as enabling you to function normally during the day: studies show that adults who sleep less than seven hours a night are more likely to say they have had health problems, including heart attack, asthma, and depression.

Some gentle yoga can help to get rid of any tension you have built up in your body over the day and relax your muscles ready for a good night’s rest.

Switch off

Don’t check those emails or even tackle anything too stimulating for at least an hour before you want to drift off; listening a relaxing podcast or soundscape is the only exception!

Make the room dreamy

The right bed and bedding can set you up for a great night’s sleep from the moment you slide between your super soft and comfy sheets – and Panda London has a fantastic range of duvets, covers and mattress toppers to help you kick back and relax.

Top of your wishlist should be the award-winning Panda memory foam bamboo pillow, named Best Pillow Overall in the 2020 Mattress Guide, Best Pillow in the T3 Awards in 2020 and Best Eco-Friendly Pillow in the 2021 Best UK Mattress awards.

Each Panda London pillow is made up of three layers of visco memory foam which use the latest memory foam gel to mould around your neck and shoulders to relieve pressure points – with the supportive memory foam pillow specifically designed to ensure the correct sleeping position to improve your sleep.

Why choose bamboo

Bamboo fabric is hypoallergenic and naturally antibacterial, helping it to repel microorganisms and parasites like mites and even bed bugs, and its in-built antimicrobial enzyme naturally deters the harmful bacteria known to irritate sensitive skin and cause unpleasant odours.

The Panda memory foam bamboo pillow comes with a removable bamboo pillow cover and feels soft as a feather while wicking away moisture and encouraging airflow to keep you naturally cooler at night.

It offers firm, soft comfort all night long, and Panda London even offers a 10-year guarantee so you can trust that your pillow will stay free from faults and supportive for a decade.
