Weighted blankets provide Deep Pressure Stimulation, which activates your parasympathetic nervous system—the system that calms your body down when you’re feeling stressed or anxious—and helps decrease cortisol (stress hormone) while increasing serotonin (happy hormone) and melatonin (sleep hormone) endorphins. This helps reduce anxiety, improve relaxation, and promote more restful sleep. These features benefit individuals with stress, insomnia, or sensory sensitivities.
