Green Sleep: Tips for a Healthier, Toxin-Free Bedroom

Green Sleep: Tips for a Healthier, Toxin-Free Bedroom

Your bedroom should be your sanctuary—but is it as healthy as it feels? From synthetic materials to hidden chemicals in dyes and finishes, your bedding might be doing more harm than good. If you're looking to detox your sleep space, here’s how to go green without sacrificing comfort.

1. Choose Organic & OEKO-TEX® Certified Bedding

Look for bedding made from certified organic cotton or bamboo, and double-check for OEKO-TEX® certification. These fabrics are free from harmful chemicals and safer for your skin (and the planet).

2. Say No to Synthetic Fragrances

Air fresheners, scented candles, and even some laundry detergents contain VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Swap them for natural alternatives like essential oil diffusers or baking soda-based deodorizers.

3. Opt for Natural Fillings

Down, organic cotton, and TENCEL™ fillings are better alternatives to polyester, which is petroleum-based and often treated with flame retardants.

4. Keep It Clean—Naturally

Use non-toxic, fragrance-free laundry detergents to wash your bedding. Regular washing (every 1-2 weeks) keeps dust mites and allergens at bay.

5. Add Greenery

Houseplants like peace lilies, snake plants, and spider plants help purify the air while adding a relaxing, nature-inspired vibe to your bedroom.
