Research released for World Sleep Day revealed that 94 percent of Aussies aren’t getting enough quality sleep, meaning that most of us aren’t functioning at our peak throughout the day. This raised some alarm bells and got us thinking about the most effective and natural remedies we can use to help us get a good night’s shut-eye.

Pillow Talk 

Never underestimate the power of a pillow! These soft and fluffy bed companions may look sweet and innocent but they’re not all created equally. Not using the correct pillow to support your needs may prevent you from getting a blissful night’s beauty sleep as well potentially leading to some serious neck, back and head issues. Everyone has their pillow preference and there’s plethora of option to suit all snoozing styles.
