A relaxing bedroom is essential for consistent good-quality sleep which, in turn, is key for your physical and mental wellbeing. From choosing the right mattress to creating a sensory environment that helps your mind unwind, it’s important to pay a bit of attention to how your bedroom looks and feels. Read on for our 14 relaxing bedroom ideas and then visit our Sleep Well, Live Well sleep hub for more help and advice.
If you’re feeling at all sleep deprived, know that a really great night’s sleep starts and ends with the correct mattress, one that supports you in all the right places and keeps you cool and comfortable all night long.
Not sure how to find the best mattress for you and your relaxing bedroom? Our bed experts created this handy mattress buying guide.
A recent survey revealed that UK adults are clocking up nine broken nights of sleep every month, so here’s an easy way to stack the odds in your favour.
As body temperature naturally drops as night-time approaches, sleeping in a cooler room can help reinforce your natural instinct to sleep. You're less likely to wake up during the night, and more likely to wake feeling refreshed. Tend to overheat? Try a stay-cool mattress.
After a busy day taking a little time to decompress is vital for your mental wellbeing. If your bedroom is the only place you can retreat for some alone time, make sure it’s as actually a relaxing bedroom. Take a break, put on some tunes and put your feet up for half an hour.
Your pillow is almost as important as your mattress. Change yours every couple of years to ensure it continues to offer the right support and is free from allergens.
Depending on your sleep position you might need a firm, medium or soft pillow.
Darkness helps production of the sleep hormone melatonin and so helps you fall asleep faster. Opt for layered lighting from different light sources so you can gradually reduce room brightness as bedtime gets closer. Take a look at our bedroom lighting selection for inspiration.
As a relaxing bedroom idea plants are both stylish and affordable. And they might actually help you sleep better. Try gorgeously scented lavender, famous for its relaxing properties, or if you're not green-fingered, some artificial plants can bring the illusion of the nature side.
Go bright and bold in your living room, dining room and kitchen, but keep things calm in your bedroom. Softer, more muted colours are more relaxing and may help soothe you to sleep.
Paint your bedroom in relaxing bedroom colours like blues and greens and opt for a matt finish.
A streamlined space can help you relax. In fact, the very act of tidying up – putting clothes away or straightening a dressing table top – can be very relaxing as you prepare for bed. Invest in functional storage like a wardrobe with built in shelving or a bedside table with drawers.
Some flowers, a reed diffuser or candle, gentle music or even a simple white noise machine can all help create a relaxing bedroom that soothes your senses and eases you to a better night’s sleep.
Small luxuries can really help elevate your mood. For a relaxing bedroom idea you’ll love, treat yourself to high thread count sheets and pillowcases. You’ll feel like you're sleeping at a stylish boutique hotel, and what could be more relaxing than that?
Draw on the principles of feng shui – the ancient art of designing living spaces to create harmony and balance – and opt for a symmetrical arrangement of furniture and accessories for your relaxing bedroom. Think pairs of bedside cabinets or matching chests of drawers.
While we love an ornate mirror in the bathroom or a bright red sofa in the living room, keeping things understated in the bedroom may help you sleep better.
Opt for simple finishes, neutral colours and natural textures. Oak bedroom furniture ticks all the boxes for a relaxing bedroom.
We’ve all done it in the bedroom – answered emails, caught up on work, folded laundry and watched TV. Sleep experts recommend you avoid associating your bedroom with active or everyday tasks and create a space that’s focused on relaxation, plain and simple.
The whole family can benefit from better sleep. Pay attention to your kids’ sleep routines and if they struggle to fall asleep or they tend to wake in the night, make sure their sleep environment is as relaxing as yours. Create the perfect sleep space with our kids’ bedroom furniture.
