weighted blanket
Anxiety-reducing bedding
A weighted blanket is a heavy blanket filled with materials like glass beads or plastic pellets, designed to provide gentle pressure across the body.
The weight typically ranges from five to thirty pounds.
Proponents claim the pressure has a calming effect, reducing anxiety and improving sleep: I sleep better under my weighted blanket.
