From editor-tested bedding to the latest in sleep tech, we've got everything you could ever need for better sleep. Welcome to New Year, New Sleep.
For most people, a good night's sleep is elusive. While some have trouble drifting off, others wake up throughout the night. In the end, we all just want to feel rested in the morning. The journey to achieving this goal is deeply personal — the same remedy isn't likely to work for everyone. There are, however, a handful of natural ingredients that have been shown to help promote better sleep.
Most notably, the hormone melatonin, the mineral magnesium, and the non-psychoactive phytocannabinoid CBD are known for inducing drowsiness, boosting calm, and encouraging restfulness. Fortunately, a handful of products utilize these ingredients in everything from drink powders to tinctures to patches. Here are twelve wellness products engineered to help you sleep.
