SELF CARE TREASURE CHEST, DAY 5: IDEAS TO FILL YOUR A TREASURE CHEST

Thread Details:

Weighted blankets are a nice self-care measure that can provide similar benefits to deep pressure therapy. These blankets have shown positive results for several conditions, including autism, ADHD, and anxiety. They can help calm a restless body, reduce feelings of anxiety, and improve sleep troubles. The pressure from the extra weight mimics a therapeutic technique called deep pressure stimulation or pressure therapy. This practice may help relieve the perception of pain, reduce symptoms of anxiety, and improve sleep quality. Deep pressure stimulation uses pressure to relax the nervous system. It models the experience of being held or hugged.

Weighted blankets are therapeutic blankets that weigh between 5 and 30 pounds. The pressure comes not from another person but from having the blanket wrapped around the body. 

If you are interested in purchasing a weighted blanket, there are a handful of companies that specialize in weighted blankets including Mosaic, Gravity, SensaCalm, and Layla. The prices of these blankets range from roughly $80 to $195. Amazon also offers quite a few options for all budgets.
