If you’re like me, the prospect of sleeping under a weighted blanket can be daunting. What will it feel like? Will I be able to move around?

Well, I tried one for three nights. And it worked. The weighted blanket helped with my anxiety and also helped me sleep better.

So what does a weighted blanket feel like? As you can probably guess, it is heavy. It feels almost like a bunch of bean bags or one of those heavy lead vests you wear when your dentist gives you an X-ray.

If you want to find the right sized weighted blanket for you, it should be about 10 percent of your bodyweight, plus or minus a few pounds. I’m a larger guy, so my weighted blanket was 25 lb. You do the math…

Also, you might sleep hot under a weighted blanket. There is heavy fill in most blankets, and it might make you overheat. I will note that I am a hot sleeper, but I think many people will feel the same.

I tried a Layla weighted blanket for three nights. It is a soft, comfortable, weighted blanket with one smooth side.

On the first night, I did have trouble moving around. The blanket felt heavy, and it held me back as I was changing positions. I actually felt like I slept worse.

On the second night, I had fewer issues. I was still woken up a few times when I tried to move around. However, I did start to sleep a bit better.

Finally, on the third night, I felt fantastic. I did not wake up at all, and I don’t think I moved around that night. I woke up feeling rested, and my normal morning anxiety was not there.

Studies have suggested that weighted blankets might work by something called deep tissue pressure. This increases serotonin and dopamine ("feel good" chemicals) while cutting down on the stress hormone cortisol. Theoretically, this helps you relax and increases feelings of wellbeing.

Because of this, weighted blankets are sometimes recommended for those with ADHD, anxiety, and insomnia. That being said, do consult a doctor before use.

I had a fantastic experience under my Layla weighted blanket. Do you think a weighted blanket could work for you?
