Despite this, almost half of people in our part of the world do not get enough sleep. Sleep disorders, such as problems falling asleep and staying asleep, are part of everyday life for some.<\/span><span single-space=\"true\" class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><\/span> \n<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\">A lack of sleep can not only lead to a drop in performance and poor concentration, but also to negative health consequences such as an increased risk of heart attack and diabetes, headaches and, last but not least, impaired mental health.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\">The specialist magazine \u201c\u00d6KO-TEST\u201d had bed linen tested and also conducted an interview on the subject with Professor Dr. J\u00fcrgen Zulley, Professor of Biological Psychology and Head of the Sleep Medicine Center at the Regensburg District Hospital. The result: high-quality bed linen has a positive influence on the quality and length of sleep. An unsurprising result for Christian Fischbacher. But we wanted to know more.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"font-size-36 m-font-size-29\" style=\"display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\">Good sleep = well-being of body and mind<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"display: initial;\">Body and mind are closely linked. Physical well-being has a major influence on our psyche, and vice versa. When choosing your bed linen, you should therefore consider various factors that influence all aspects of your sleep quality.<br><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\">Five steps to wellbeing under the duvet<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; font-weight: bold;\">The right materials for your bed linen<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\"><br>Always choose bedding made from natural materials. Linen, cotton and silk are soft, breathable, moisture- and temperature-regulating. Polyester has no place in your bed if you want to feel completely comfortable. High breathability of your bed linen ensures optimum temperature regulation during sleep, and the appropriate air circulation contributes to better rest.<br>&nbsp;<br> <\/span> \n<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\">&nbsp;<\/span> \n<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n<li><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; font-weight: bold;\">Thread count and skin feel<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\"><br>The thread count of the fabric indicates how tightly a material is woven. A higher thread count guarantees a pleasant, smooth feel against the skin, thereby increasing sleeping comfort. However, you should avoid fabrics that are woven too tightly, because they are not sufficiently breathable.<br>&nbsp;<br> <\/span> \n<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\">&nbsp;<\/span> \n<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n<li><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; font-weight: bold;\">Colours as mood makers<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\"><br>You should not leave the colour choice of your bed set to chance. Colours in the bedroom have a great influence on how you feel there. Individual experiences and cultural differences influence the effect of colours.

Whether eider down, goose down or natural hair, the best duvet depends on your personal preferences. Choose a duvet that suits your body and your sleeping needs. The ideal pillow also depends on your preferred sleeping position. If you are a side sleeper, choose a supportive pillow; if you sleep on your stomach or back, choose a flat pillow; and if you sleep in different positions, choose a pillow with a medium filling.<br>&nbsp;<br> <\/span> \n<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\">&nbsp;<\/span> \n<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n<li><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; font-weight: bold;\">Aesthetics and emotional well-being<\/span><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\"><br>An appealing sleeping environment can influence emotional well-being.

Bed linen made from this fine natural material absorbs a particularly large amount of water. As each of us loses an average of half a litre of sweat per night during sleep, this property of linen bed linen is particularly important. Bed linen made of linen is also particularly breathable. It acts as a biological air conditioning system and balances temperature and moisture in both summer and winter.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"display: initial;\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" class=\"m-font-size-15\">Linen fabric also becomes softer with every wash, making it more and more pleasant on the skin over time. The fact that linen fabric is also particularly durable and is the most sustainable fibre ensures that you can sleep with a clear conscience. And, as if that were not enough, linen bed linen looks really classy. The textured crinkled look has long been a trend among the most renowned interior designers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><span style=\"display: initial;\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" class=\"m-font-size-15\">Linen fabrics are an excellent choice for sensitive people to improve the quality of their sleep.

The deep relaxation achieved in this way makes it possible to reduce stress particularly efficiently. The fact that silk bed linen is also considered an insider tip for beautiful skin and healthy hair is a welcome side effect for many connoisseurs of luxurious bed linen.<\/span> \n<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><span m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\" class=\"m-font-size-15\">These are by no means empty promises, but facts that are easy to prove. The unique smoothness of a silk pillowcase ensures that the face resting on it wakes up looking relaxed and less \u201cwrinkled\u201d than after sleeping on other fabrics. The hair also benefits from this property of silk. Reduced friction on the pillow reduces hair breakage and split ends.

Colour theory and colour psychology play a crucial role in the design of this room. For example, a duvet cover in a primary colour such as magenta, yellow or a bright blue can create a lively and energetic feeling, while muted colours are perceived as more calming and relaxing.<\/span><span single-space=\"true\" class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><\/span> \n<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\">The right colour scheme for the walls, curtains and bed linen makes a significant contribution to helping us calm down and find a deep, relaxing sleep. However, which colours are particularly suitable for the bedroom depends not only on general beliefs in colour psychology. Individual preferences and character traits also count. However, you can hardly go wrong with some colours.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"font-weight: normal; display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\" class=\"m-font-size-20\">Pure purity: white<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\">A classic, but too cool for many people. Lighten up pure white with colour accents. However, some people also enjoy the visual calmness of the colour and can relax particularly well under white duvets. A big advantage of white bed linen is that you can also use less gentle detergent. The white bed set conveys a wonderful feeling of freshness, cleanliness and hygiene.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"font-weight: normal; display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\" class=\"m-font-size-20\">Infinite relaxation: blue<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\">Cool blue is associated with calm, contentment, harmony and infinity. A colour that invites you to dream! Colour psychologists attest that light blue bed linen is an all-rounder that ensures peaceful sleep for most people. What\u2019s more, blue inhibits the appetite, so get under the blue duvet if you want to finish off those midnight snacks.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"font-weight: normal; display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\" class=\"m-font-size-20\">Personality, natural calm: green<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial; color: rgb(26, 26, 26);\">Surrounded by the colour of nature, we can relax particularly well and get rid of stress. For this reason, green bed linen is increasingly being chosen by interior design professionals. The cooler the shade of green, the greater its relaxing and stress-reducing effect.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\" class=\"m-font-size-15\">Scientific studies prove that the quality of comforter covers and pillowcases has a surprisingly high influence on our well-being at night and therefore on the quality of our sleep.<\/span><span single-space=\"true\" class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"> <span class=\"m-font-size-15\" style=\"display: initial;\"><\/span> \n<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span class=\"m-font-size-15\" m-font-size-set=\"true\" style=\"display: initial;\">To be honest: At Christian Fischbacher, we have known this for centuries, long before the researchers confirmed it.
