Futon
Shopping for a mattress can be a nightmare! How do you tell one box of foam, fuzz, or feathers from another? Lying there in your winter coat in the middle of the bed department just isn't quite the same as turning in for a good nights' sleep!
We are coming to know the importance of looking for sustainable products to serve our needs. Most of us have to balance a price tag into the equation. How do we ever reach a decision when we're bouncin' all these ideas on the bed: comfort, cost, and caring for the earth!
When choosing a Futon mattress there are three basic steps to make on your way to slumberland.
First off, choose a frame!
sofa bed
platform
bunk
loveseat
full size
Make your decision based on room size, family needs, and style preference.
Next, choose your nest!
recycled organic cotton
wool
memory foam
Do seriously consider recycled, organic cotton. Purchasing such a product supports organic farming which is a powerful tool in the fight against global climate change. Organic growing focuses on soil health, promotes bio-diversity, and why would we not want to protect our air, soil, water, and wildlife from toxic chemicals?
Wool has been known through the ages for its remarkable strength and softness. As a natural fibre it's health enhancing. It provides even warmth, disperses moisture from the skin, and muffles sound. Hmmm...even snoring?
Emissions-free memory foam is the new age futon mattress material which provides a truly individualized sleep experience, relieving pressure points.
And finally (the fun part), choose the cover and pillows!
A restorative sleep can make a huge difference in your level of health and contentedness, your creativity and productivity!
Support Mother Earth daily and she'll support you well each night while you're sleeping.
