The Top Two Most Comfortable Mattresses: Memory Foam and Natural Latex

Would you like to know what type of mattresses are rated the most comfortable? According to the top-rated sleep review site, SleepLiketheDead, it’s the memory foam mattress followed closely by the natural latex mattress.  This research is based on actual customer satisfaction data.

Although both are extremely comfortable, they are different.  A memory foam mattress conforms to your body’s shape, cradling your body and reducing pressure points.  A latex mattress has a firmer, more bouncier feel than a memory foam mattress.  It does not change its shape or conform to your body’s contours.

A Natural Latex Mattress is Completely Recyclable

Are you thinking about a natural latex mattress and all the benefits it can provide? A 100% all-natural latex mattress is hypoallergenic, antimicrobial, and dust mite-free. It is also extremely comfortable. If those are not enough great reasons to think about an all-natural latex mattress, here is one more… Since an all-natural latex mattress is completely botanical and made from the sap of a rubber tree, it is completely recyclable. That is another great benefit of a natural latex mattress.

Why a Quality Memory Foam Topper is Worth the Price

I speak to many people who are looking for a memory foam topper, but want to pay a very low price. With memory foam toppers, durability and longevity is a huge factor in the price you will pay.  When I talk about price, I’m not talking about overpriced (which is the case when the price you pay is due to millions in advertising like the leading memory foam brand).  I’m talking about price that is based on the comfort, quality, and durability of the memory foam topper.

Don’t Be Fooled by Synthetic Latex Mattresses

There are a lot of “natural” latex mattresses out there. Unfortunately, many of these so-called “natural” latex mattresses are not really natural latex at all, but are actually man-made or synthetic latex.  A truly 100% all-natural latex mattress is made from sap from a rubber tree, not synthetic petrochemicals.  Buyers have to be very careful when looking for an all-natural latex mattress.  Many of the latex mattresses that are called “natural” contain just a tiny amount of natural latex and the rest is synthetic.  I even had to fight to get the truth out of many latex manufacturers when sourcing our 100% natural latex mattress.  Many manufacturers tried to push their “natural” latex on me that wasn’t 100% natural at all.  It sometimes took a lot of questioning and arm twisting to get this information even when sourcing materials as an insider!

Why Resolutions are Broken and Goals are Met: How to Attain Your Goals

Fitness Goal Setting – Using Fitness Goal Setting as a Success Tool

Unlike resolutions, which are usually broken by February, goals are made to be set, attained, and set again at a new higher level. Goal setting is an important tool for evaluating your progress and successfully meeting your goals. It is the road map that helps lead you to your final destination. Short-term (immediate) and intermediate goals are the stepping-stones to your long-range goals. Short and intermediate goals are necessary so that success is experienced during the long journey towards your long-range and final, ultimate goal.

Why You Need to Read Mattress Warranty Details

I recently spoke with a man who was looking into the Healthy Foundations 10″ Memory Foam Mattress, as well as the memory foam mattress of another mattress company.  There were differences in the way they were made, pricing, company longevity, and the usual things that separates Healthy Foundations from other companies, but the biggest “gotcha” from this company is their warranty.  Buyer beware, as I always say.
