A good night's sleep is vital for overall health and well-being, and sharing a bed with your partner can be a wonderful way to enhance feelings of closeness and connection, especially around this time of year when Valentine’s Day has us all heart-eyed. However, it's not uncommon for differences in sleep preferences and habits to create challenges. To ensure both you and your partner enjoy restful nights together this February 14th and beyond, consider these sleep tips for harmonious shared slumber.

1. Upsize your bed
The size of your bed can make a huge difference, especially if your partner is prone to tossing and turning in their sleep, if you share a bed with a four-legged friend, or if you have children who sometimes sleep with you. If space allows, consider upgrading to a larger bed size, such as a queen or king, to provide ample room for both of you (and your pets or kids) to move comfortably during the night. A spacious bed can prevent the feeling of overcrowding, contributing to a more restful sleep for everyone taking up room on your mattress.
2. Choose the right mattress
Selecting the right mattress is crucial for an ideal shared sleep experience. Invest in a mattress that accommodates both partners' preferences for firmness. Medium-firm mattresses are the Goldilocks choice for most sleepers, offering the perfect balance of comfort and support for nights of uninterrupted bliss. If your partner likes to practice their best gymnastics moves at night, you should also look for a mattress that eliminates motion transfer so you don't feel their movement. The Endy Mattress and the Endy Hybrid Mattress cater to all these needs!

3. Find Pillow Harmony
Pillows play a significant role in ensuring individual comfort, especially when you're sharing a bed with your sweetheart. But fear not, lovebirds! Say goodbye to mismatched fluff and hello to customized comfort with the Endy Customizable Pillow. With its unique design allowing you to add or remove foam to achieve your desired level of fullness, you'll both drift off into dreamland feeling like royalty. It’s also the perfect Valentine’s Day gift, but make sure you get one for each of you so you're not fighting over the good pillow!
4. Create a Comfortable Sleep Environment
If you or your partner are guilty of being a cover hog, you may be good candidates for the Scandinavian Sleep Method. To create a cozy sleep space for both partners, try sleeping with two separate duvets. This gives each person control over their own temperature while sleeping, so someone who is colder can fully wrap themselves in their duvet burrito-style, whereas the nighttime overheater can have a leg resting outside the duvet to balance out the temperature. The Endy Duvet is an all-season option, great for hot and cold sleepers.

5. Manage Different Sleep Times
People have different schedules and natural sleep patterns, so it's not uncommon for partners to have different bedtime routines. If your partner is an early riser and you’re a night owl, it helps to be considerate of each other and figure out a compromise. Perhaps you’re able to meet in the middle of your preferred bedtimes, or designate certain weekdays as “early nights” while weekends are reserved for sleep-ins. This Valentine's Day is the perfect opportunity to level up you and your partner's sleep situation. While snoozing next to your beloved may seem like a recipe for a bad night's sleep, with a few upgrades and a bit of compromise, you can both be catching zzz's all night long.
