Do weighted blankets help you sleep better? Here's what to know

But research on the effectiveness of weighted blankets is limited.

I'd bet they would definitely be an effective contraceptive.

I thought this was the kind of thing done for pets...

They sell for around ¥6,500 on Amazon Japan. I'm thinking of trying one.

Crawling under a heavy winter futon has always helped me sleep well.

I wonder if it's a subconscious security thing. The extra weight makes you feel more shielded from imagined (or real I suppose) threats. After all, there's a reason comforters, duvets, covers or whatever you want to call them exist in the first place instead of people simply sleeping in their clothes.

If I were camping in bear infested woods, for example, I'd sleep much easier in a cabin than I would in a tent.

I don’t get it, it’s weird, lol
