Earlier dark evenings give our body more time to release melatonin, the sleep hormone, which it makes when it’s exposed to darkness. If you normally go to bed around 10-11pm, the clock change will give your body more time to prepare for sleep as opposed to the lighter evenings in British Summer Time. Having longer to prepare for sleep can also help you sleep more soundly and reap the rewards of a better night’s sleep\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeel happier: \u003c\/strong\u003eGaining an extra hour’s sleep can have a positive impact on our mood and make us better able to deal with the emotional and social demands of the next day. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tielleloveluxury.co.uk\/blogs\/blog\/get-the-sleep-get-the-grades\"\u003e\u003cu\u003eStudents\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e and workers who enjoy better sleep also report higher levels of engagement.

This makes it easier to get up, rather than feel you’re reluctantly dragging your body out of bed.

We all need it, but young children and teens typically need more shut-eye than adults to feel and perform their best.

We all experience it and it doesn’t mean you have a sleep problem, just that you’re human. You can catch up with lost sleep by going to bed a bit earlier over the next few days or week. That said, even one bad night can leave you feeling tired and cranky the next day. This can impact on cognitive functioning by impairing your ability to learn, think, reason, remember, problem solve and make decisions. All the daily things learners need to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile missing out on a few Zzzs is rarely a big concern, sleep disturbance can be the result of real or hypothetical worries and good or bad life events. Excitement and anxiety both arouse the system and can negatively impact sleep quality. Yet while the excitement of returning to school may override any anxiety in some children, for others, it may be the anxiety of returning to school that's keeping them awake. This anxiety might be caused by the prospect of going to a new school or making friends or fear of failure after a year of Covid disruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhatever’s at the heart of the issue, normalising sleep problems is important. Not least because worrying about not sleeping can create further anxiety, which in turn can activate the body’s fight\/flight response. This primal response to danger triggers the release of hormones that prepare us to stay and fight or run and flee. Once we’re in this state, the last thing our body will let us do is sleep. It needs us to stay alert and awake!”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSleep and your body clock \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“If lack of sleep is a recurring problem with your child or teenager, it’s time to set aside some time to find out why.

That’s the internal circadian clock that tells your body when it’s time to get up and go to sleep. Young children generally have an earlier clock, meaning they go to sleep early and wake up early. This fits in with conventional school teaching hours. Adolescents typically have a later sleep-wake time. This can make waking up early for school challenging, and result in a moody, grumpy teenager that’s sleep deprived and struggling at school.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile it’s not especially easy or desirable to change your circadian clock – the internal timekeeping system that tells you when to wake and sleep - sometimes you have no choice. For those going back to school or college, establishing a new sleep routine a week or two in the run up to the start is the best way to help make the transition easier. It will also help them start the year off on the right foot.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCreate a winning sleep schedule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDevelop an evening routine\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHelp your child develop an evening ritual they enjoy and can own.

I was on a very speedy two-day trip to Tromsø, in the north of Norway in the middle of summer. At that time of year that area is referred to as the land of the midnight sun, as it never gets dark. It was so surreal trying to sleep while the sun was so high in the sky. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat bedroom trends never seem to change? \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe desire for comfort is universal and whatever changes according to trends and style, this is still the main focus. Crisp white bedlinen also never seems to go out of fashion.

Key elements for me are colour – painting the walls a soothing shade and adding textiles in calm tones can transform a space into somewhere you won’t want to leave. Lighting also has a massive impact. Install dimmer switches if you can so you can really alter the amount of light in the room at different times of the day. Low level illumination at bedtime will make the room so enticing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich hotel, B\u0026amp;B or luxury retreat would you most like to visit or revisit and why? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn my past I spent some time working at Claridge’s and was lucky enough to stay a few times. It really is the best hotel in the world with service that’s off the scale and a sense of old-world glamour that’s hard to match. A highlight a little further afield was The Post Ranch Inn in California’s Big Sur with its luxury cliff-top cabins high above the Pacific where you can see whales swimming below. I would go back in a flash. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere have you had the best night’s sleep? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy parents live in a remote farmhouse in south-west France. It’s my sanctuary, the place I go to get away from it all, to rest and reset. It’s so quiet and has the biggest star-filled skies I’ve ever seen and because I associate it with family and calm that’s definitely where I sleep the best. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTell us about your own bedroom? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs I’m obsessed with Italian design I have a bed by an Italian brand called Bolzan. Super contemporary, it has a Kvadrat plum fabric-covered metal frame, which incorporates an inclined headboard. The king-size mattress sits on top of the platform and I love that it’s really firm. I’m not a fan of squishy beds. I have bedside tables from The Conran Shop and clever lights from the mattress company Casper – you can set them to dim as you fall asleep and wake you by coming on in the morning all via an app. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat gets you up in the morning? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the moment predominantly it’s sunshine. I love getting up early and often leave the blinds up so I can wake as the sun rises. I’m also a huge fan of that first morning cup of coffee and the thought of heading to the gym, which I do most mornings… \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat helps you sleep at night? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI’m a sucker for a good pillow mist, something with lavender oil in. I also try and read before bed, but I’m usually so exhausted I only manage a page or two before my head starts to nod. I also like to listen to classical music as I drift off. Composer Arvo Pärt’s \u003cem\u003eSpiegel im Spiegel\u003c\/em\u003e is the most relaxing composition and makes me so chilled. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you help overnight guests feel welcome in your home? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI think it’s always a nice touch to give guests that hotel-at-home experience, so I’ll always provide slippers and robes for them with a basket of toiletries and set up a refreshment tray in the room so they can have a little independence. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat luxury item would you take on a desert island? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo it probably defeats the object of being on a desert island, but I’d have to take my iPhone and a solar-powered charger of course. I couldn’t survive without it and when you think of all the things you can use it for, it sort of makes sense! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow would you best describe your interior style? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo it’s very ELLE Decoration I suppose. Contemporary, urban and luxe with some eclectic touches thrown in. It’s all about the juxtaposition so it definitely involves mixing design classics with some family heirlooms and cutting-edge pieces. I’ve always had a very monochrome palette throughout my home, but lately I’ve been introducing more colour. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow did you get into interior design and what do you love about it? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI actually started working in fashion, but was always obsessive about interiors and design so quickly moved across to work in that world instead. The people are a lot nicer to be honest! I love that interiors can be the truest reflection of who you really are. If you invite people into your home it has to represent your style, your taste, your personality. There’s such creativity, innovation and originality in this industry. It’s invigorating to be part of it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich room in your house is your favourite? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bedroom of course… It’s where all the best things happen… Long lie-ins, breakfast in bed, pillow fights… \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat do you think will be the next big bedroom trend? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlexibility! Post-lockdown with us all having been confined to our homes for so long, I think all rooms have somewhat lost their traditional functions. You can end up working, studying, exercising, relaxing, entertaining in any area of your home. So I think bedrooms will increasingly be spaces that adapt to how they need to be used. This is bound to have an impact on the furniture we use in them and how they’re decorated. We’re already seeing lots of curtain dividers and screens used so spaces can be divided up for multiple uses. For this reason, I’m also predicting a return to four-poster beds, which can be sectioned off like a room within a room. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat tip would you give someone who wants to transform their bedroom space? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThink about what makes you feel really calm, whether that’s a colour, a painting, a piece of furniture that you own. Use that as the starting point for how you approach the space. I’d also advise switching around the configuration of the furniture in your room. It may sound crazy, but doing something radical like moving the bed to the middle of the room or facing it in a different direction can create a totally new perspective. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","blog_id":78732820657,"author":"Issy Bower","user_id":73784033457,"published_at":"2021-10-18T11:39:24+01:00","updated_at":"2021-10-18T11:39:42+01:00","summary_html":"\u003cspan\u003eBen’s avid interest in contemporary design has led to a career spanning over two decades in the world of fashion, lifestyle and interiors.

We went to Cuba, booking through a travel agent, but arrived at a boring beach hotel complex with terrible food. After two days of what felt like a holiday prison we hired a mini 4x4 and embarked on a road trip to Havana. Arriving into the city was a sight I will never forget; the grand colourful buildings crumbling away were jaw-droppingly beautiful. We had no plan but saw an impressive building in the centre overlooking the sea - the Hotel Nacional de Cuba. Waved in by the doorman, we pulled up outside and wandered into the lobby to ask for a hotel room on the spot. The décor was old fashioned and overwhelmingly brown, much of the grandeur faded, but it had such a presence with a quietly seedy undertone. An unforgettable experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat bedroom trends never seem to change?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor me the main one has to be a crisp white bedlinen set.

White sheets also work well with so many different décor schemes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDesign wise, what makes a bedroom more inviting?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn armchair placed strategically in line with the doorway definitely draws you into a bedroom. It is also a great way to pick up with colour scheme and gain a cosy reading spot. Personally, I love the glamour of a vanity table with mirror and seat. There is such a decadence to a vanity in the corner of a bedroom complete with a perfume or jewellery on display - an echo of the Hollywood era. It also has a great purpose too for hair styling. I love the design of vintage vanities and their contemporary counterparts, something Pinch have done very well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich hotel, B\u0026amp;B or luxury retreat would you most like to visit or revisit and why?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI have been lucky to travel extensively for work and play and stay in a vast array of hotels, from the extremely luxurious (baths with views of the Eiffel Tower) to functional airport chain hotels (business stops) and the odd horror! There are so many that I would love to revisit. For pure luxury and rest I would return to the Surin Phuket in Thailand designed by Edward Tuttle. The calming chalet rooms have a modern muted decor and are set over the sea surrounded by rich foliage. It offers pure escapism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a Londoner I haven’t often stayed at our own city’s finest hotels but I would love to wake up at one of the city’s destination hotels in the centre of town. I love to stay at hotels that have a totally different taste of decor to my own. Although I wouldn’t replicate the look at home, I love the granny chic style of the Soho House group and eclectic patterns of the Firmdale properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere have you had the best night's sleep?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNothing beats my own bed for a good night’s sleep but if pushed to look further afield I would recall a trip last summer in our months of freedom following lockdown. I stayed in West Dorset in a small pub with simple, tastefully decorated rooms near Chesil Beach. The room looked onto the sea and had an enormous super king sleigh bed from which you could listen to the sound of the waves. To be somewhere away from home felt so rejuvenating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTell us about your own bedroom?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy main intention for our current bedroom was to create a calming space, so there is lots of storage hidden behind simple doors with a mix of vintage furniture pieces. The walls are painted in a pale shade of blue grey, just off from white giving a gentle softness. After years of wooden floors, we chose a knotted-pile carpet for something warm and soft underfoot, comfort is key. For our windows I opted for a super simple white blackout blind to block streetlight paired with sheer white curtains which work really well in the day as they allow light in while maintaining a feeling of privacy as we live on a London street. They also bring a modern softness to the space. The furniture is mostly vintage which I love as they hold their own memories. On the wall I have an abstract Danish print I bought years ago which I love. The room is still evolving and will change over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat gets you up in the morning?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy daughter. As a baby she was a great sleeper but now she is three she often wakes up early and scrambles into our bed which she loves to jump on. We recently added a kitten to the mix who also likes to play at dawn, so there’s no chance of a lazy lie-in!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat helps you to sleep at night?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFresh sheets, a good pair of pyjamas and a tidy room help me feel settled and ready for bed. I also have blackout blinds which I couldn’t live without as they block out the streetlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you help overnight guests feel welcome in your home?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen guests stay I love to leave a guest set at the end of the bed. These often include miniature bathroom essentials I’ve picked up along the way on hotel travels plus a fresh towel and eye mask. In the past when having guests to stay while we were away I even made pretend hotel brochures listing local recommendations and invented hotel amenities as a light-hearted welcome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat luxury item would you take on a desert island?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA big question! I am assuming the island offers all the necessary bits for living so my luxury would be a drawing set - a box of Prismacolor coloured pencils and paper so that I could draw my surroundings and keep my mind occupied. I love to sketch though often don’t have the time to do it so with all the quiet endless days on a desert island I could while away the days drawing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow would you best describe your interior style?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDefinitely modern. I love to combine vintage and new pieces collected over time. At home I have a 1970s pink perspex dining table designed by British designer Peter Banks with a set of candy coloured Fritz Hansen Series 7 chairs. Vintage pieces but modern in design. I like homes that feel organic rather than designed and bought all under one scheme. Many of my pieces I feel have their own stories of how I came to acquire them or previous lives which I love. In our age of consciousness around sustainability it makes sense to work with vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow did you get into Interior Design and what do you love about it?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a child my parents dragged me around London’s modern furniture destination, The Conran Shop, and I always laugh that as an adult I can often be found trawling London’s furniture and interiors stores in just the same way. In my twenties I found myself at Wallpaper* magazine which gave me an amazing design education and gold ticket access to the international design scene. Working in the industry I love championing independent designers and sourcing fresh talent. For me quality and craftsmanship is key. Recently I have been curating design pieces for a new digital platform, Lymited, for which I have been able to promote a group of extremely talented designer-makers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich room in your house is your favourite?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy favourite room in the house is our daughter’s room. I designed a light but bold monochrome scheme with pastel off-pink walls and matching pink carpet. The back of the door is in a\u003cbr\u003ebubblegum pink as a hidden detail. She has a beautiful Danish toddler bed and a 1930s vintage wardrobe. Aside from the mass of toys and books it is a very peaceful and happy room which I love to sit in and read.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat do you think will be the next big bedroom trend?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn every part of our lives now sustainability has come to the forefront of our priorities. This, along with wellness and the need to look after our mental health, very much ties into how we are seeing the bedroom as a personal retreat. These themes are coming through in bedroom furniture with the use of more natural materials at every level, such as rush in wardrobe panels. We are also seeing cocooning beds and extended headboards wide enough to include bedside tables and lamps, enveloping sleeping guests.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat tip would you give someone who wants to transform their bedroom space?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI would focus on what view you have from your bed and start there. Art can be a great source of inspiration, and having a piece of art that you love or a view through a window, can bring tranquillity and energy. Simple changes like looking at the position of the bed in your space and keeping clutter at bay all help to create a restful room.\u003c\/p\u003e","blog_id":78732820657,"author":"Katie Hawes","user_id":73783967921,"published_at":"2021-06-14T16:11:46+01:00","updated_at":"2021-10-18T11:00:10+01:00","summary_html":"Amy is the former Interiors Director at Wallpaper* magazine and an unrivalled source of inspiration on how to sleep in style at home.
