Cuddle Up To Something New

We at The Suite love our pillows, especially when they come from our favorite wellness brand, Bearaby. After the success of The Cuddler, we were wondering when they’d release a smaller bolster pillow, and it’s finally here! There are a myriad of reasons why we recommend a bolster pillow, and even more reasons why we recommend Bearaby. Allow us to introduce you to your new favorite pillow and the brand behind the world’s most soothing sleep products ever.

Meet Bearaby: The Natural Way To Sleep Well & Feel Well

Bearaby is a beloved self-care and wellness brand that came onto the scene in 2018, founded with one mission: self-care without compromise and better sleep for everyone. Made using all-natural, sustainable materials and closed loop production, their products are breaking barriers by bringing joy, good design, functionality and deep, revitalizing rest. From weighted blankets to pillows, they offer so many options for any type of sleeper. Bearaby is the authority on self-care and better sleep, promoting natural rest through some of the most innovative products we’ve ever seen, including their new bolster pillow, The Cuddling.

What Is A Bolster Pillow?

A bolster is essentially a long, cylindrical pillow that originated in Southeast Asian countries to provide both physical and emotional support to its user. Bolster pillows provide ideal comfort for your back, neck, and legs. It can be placed in a number of different positions to provide optimal comfort and support while sleeping, napping, lounging or meditating.

Bolster pillows are especially great for side sleepers as it helps align your hips and spine by placing it between your knees. They’re also ideal for soon-to-be mothers, who are encouraged to sleep on their side, as well as for babies during ‘tummy time’, and those who engage in physiotherapy. Even if you just need something to hug, or make you more comfortable while reading, basically anyone who just needs some extra support and comfort can benefit from using a bolster pillow. Some even say it’s the perfect gift for a long-distance partner.

Why Use A Bolster Pillow?

A bolster pillow is a great way to improve your sleep quality and can be an essential part of any routine, as it provides the perfect balance of comfort and support. Cuddle up with one when you’re having a rough day and need some extra TLC for the ultimate sense of mental and physical relief. Bolster pillows are dynamic—they can be used for multiple purposes, and have so many benefits for your health and wellbeing.

Here are 13 ways you can use a bolster pillow:

1. For orthopedic functions

2. To relieve tension on joints

3. To improve posture

4. For emotional comfort

5. For increased overall comfort

6. To encourage muscle relaxation

7. For comfort while sleeping

8. For your babies’ protection

9. For tummy time

10. As a workout prop

11. To relieve an upset stomach and alleviate digestive issues

12. To elevate your space as decorative element

13. For physiotherapy needs

With so many different uses, bolster pillows really are the perfect addition to any lifestyle and can offer endless benefits.

What To Look For In A Bolster Pillow? And Why Bearaby’s Is The Best.

Bolster pillows are usually made of firm materials or memory foam. Problem is: these materials are synthetic and potentially toxic. Not to mention really bad for the environment. Bearaby’s Cuddling is different.

Through product innovation, Bearaby was able to create an ergonomically designed, soothing bolster pillow that melts away tension, made with plant-based Melofoam™. This innovative material is GOLS-certified, all-natural, and satisfyingly squashy. It’s made from rubber tree sap by tapping directly from organic hevea trees in Sri Lanka. The entire process is completely natural and the rubber trees live for decades. This responsive, breathable, and natural foam gives the Cuddling a gentle weight for soothing cuddles, and the sensory feel from its soft linen cover soothes the senses.
