What I love about this mattress is its zone pressure relief. This mattress uses pressure-relieving memory foam that conforms to the body and helps circulation. I'm a person who deals with neck pain on occasion, and the first night after I slept on this mattress, my pain got a little less intense-honestly, it felt like I was cradled in clouds.

It's normal to feel sluggish during the winter. Cold temperatures and fewer hours of sunlight can mean less time outdoors and more time staring at our screens. For some people, these cold-weather habits may contribute to a sleep disruption, known as winter insomnia. This isn't a clinical condition, but it might begin or worsen during the winter months.

Sleep banking is essentially extending your normal sleep hours in the nights leading up to a known period of sleep deprivation. On the face of it, it appears unlikely banking sleep could counter the decreased alertness and other cognitive decrements that we experience when deprived of sleep, or stop that strong sensation we get when our body wants sleep.

The Sleep Number ComfortMode, the brand's latest and most comfortable mattress, features a remote control that allows you to easily adjust the firmness on both sides. Unlike some other smart beds, this model requires no apps - although Sleep Number does offer an impressive app for tracking sleep and receiving personalized insights. Featuring a 3.5-inch top layer for extra thickness and density, this 10-inch mattress is designed to deliver all-night comfort and support.

I tested AGZ's chocolate and mint flavors, which come with a frother, and you can blend the powder with water or milk, either warm or cold (although I think it tastes the best with milk, like a frothy hot cocoa). The drink doesn't taste overly sweet and has a nice, rich chocolate taste. The mix is melatonin-free, instead with adaptogens, herbs, and minerals, including magnesium, vitamin B6, L-theanine, ashwagandha, and calming herbs.

That's why we chose the Tempur-Pedic "ProAdapt" Mattress as our top overall pick-the support layers feature high-density foam on top of steel coils that not only help with lumbar support but also minimize motion transfer, so you sleep soundly even if your partner can't stay still.

"I sleep on this pillow almost every night, and if it wasn't for the unique grid cloud texture, I would definitely mistake this for down because of its superior softness," shares Baker. Even though this falls in the down alternative pillow category, she says it's a worthwhile pick since it gives the type of support that'll help finicky side or back sleepers rest easy.

Have you ever struggled to find the perfect drink just before bed? Something like coffee or another caffeinated drink is usually out of the question. Likewise, you don't want a sugary drink if you just brushed your teeth. Cold water, and even room-temperature water, might be the standard, but you should consider the benefits of hot water if you've never tried it before. It can benefit you in more ways than you'd think.

I'll admit it upfront: I'm difficult when it comes to mattresses. My husband lovingly (and accurately) calls me the Princess and the Pea. I notice everything. Too firm? My hips complain. Too soft? My lower back stages a full protest. Too hot, too sink-y, not supportive enough; nothing escapes my attention. Chronic lower back pain will do that to you. Over the years, it's turned me into a real mattress snob with extremely strong opinions and very little patience.
