In our daily life, sleeping will be a major problem for those who suffer from anxiety. This may because anxious person can not be able to calm down as well as not being able to slow down the running thoughts in one’s head. One study found that people who used weighted blankets have calmer nights of sleep, with a reduction of movement. But why weighted blanket can be workable for people with anxiety, autism, ADHD, insomnia or stress?

There is an underlying science behind weighted blankets. It’s called Deep Touch Pressure or DTP. That is simply gentle, distributed pressure on the body. The deep pressure from the weight causes the body to produce serotonin and endorphins, which are the chemicals our bodies naturally use to feel relaxed or calm. In combination with the darkness that occurs during the nighttime hours, the pineal gland converts serotonin to melatonin, our natural sleep-inducing hormone. Animals and humans alike tend to feel a sense of security when swaddled, so having a weighted blanket wrapped around the body eases the mind, allowing for complete relaxation.

Another side, weighted blankets have specifically been shown to decrease the activity in the nervous system.A study found that physiologically, 33% of people using a weighted blanket had decreases in their nervous system activity, while 63% reported having lower anxiety. Overall, 78% of people in the study preferred the weighted blanket as a tool to relieve anxiety.
