An old friend of mine that was a professional sales trainer always used to close out his conversations with the phrase, "don't change anything but your underwear." It was his positive affirmation that you were O.K. in his book. The truth of the matter is that we are constantly having to change things in order to accomodate our new needs and desires in life.
Did you know that the Better Sleep Council recommends that you change your mattress every 5 to 7 years? The reasons for doing this include: normal wear and tear of the mattress, changes in body weight and shape, hygene, physical aliments, and ridding ourselves of the incorrect selections we last made. Sleeping on the right mattress for your current needs can greatly change the way you sleep and affect the way you feel when you wake up each morning.
How long has it been since you changed your mattress? Is your current mattress as comfortable and supportive as you need or like it to be? Are you, like so many Americans sleeping on a life support system for harmful biotoxins and dust mites that have accumulated after many years. Isn't it time you considered shopping for a new "just right" mattress? Let The Bed Store help you make the process easy and fun.

Don't get the wrong idea, I'm talking about mattresses here. A poor quality kingsized mattress could prove to be more comfortable and accomodating than a top quality full sized mattress. That's right. The difference the extra 24" in "stretch room" makes can change the way you sleep through the night.
The mattress industry has made a concerted effort to slowly phase out the double, regular, or full sized mattress over the past 30 years. Back in the day the full sized mattress was all the rage for two consenting adults. What were we thinking? A full sized mattress is the exact width of two crib mattresses side by side. Who came up with that formula?
Don't think that a king sized mattress does away with intimacy either. You can always meet in the middle or invite each other to "your" side of the mattress. Now I am not advocating a poor quality king size mattress for your next mattress purchase. I'm just saying when it's time for your new mattress, which it probably is, then consider upsizing to a king if your bedroom allows, or to a queen if not. Of course you need to select a feel and firmness that is "just right" for you. The right mattress can make all the difference in the world in the way you sleep and wake up the next day.
So, treat your queen to a king and deal yourself a winning hand. Check out the sleep experts at The Bed Store by coming into one of our eight East Tennessee locations today and start sleeping better tonight.
