What is Scandinavian sleep?

What if we each had a duvet to maintain harmony within our relationship? It’s the Scandinavian sleep solution that’s a hit on TikTok. Influencers tell this app that they traveled to Scandinavian countries and noticed that there are systematically two duvets in the double beds of each hotel or Airbnb. And according to them this would be the real secret to sleeping better, no longer freezing in the middle of the night or even choosing your own thickness of duvet (very practical if you are cold). The testimonies of those who tested are unanimous: “Every person gets a good night’s sleep and wakes up happy” or “we started doing it a few years ago following learning regarding it and it makes such a difference“.

Who is the Scandinavian sleep method for?

– Couples made up of one person who is always hot and another who is always cold. Especially since to sleep well, body temperature must remain low during the night. Individual bedding allows you to adjust this temperature according to your needs without having to negotiate with your partner. Thanks to this method, everyone chooses the thickness of their duvet according to their preferences, and no more compromises.

– Those who do not go to bed at the same time. Having an individual duvet limits accidental awakenings. It also works when one of the two occupants of the bed moves a lot or suffers from insomnia: there is less disturbance caused by rotating movements.

– those who already have a separate room (according to an Ifop study2in 2021, this is the case of 10% of couples). This method may be the solution to trying to sleep together once more. Especially since, according to an English sleep research company3people who sleep in pairs have less insomnia, fall asleep more quickly and have shorter wakefulness periods than those who sleep alone.

What are the disadvantages of separate duvets?

Despite many advantages, this Scandinavian method has some disadvantages. If you use two duvets instead of one, the bed will not be as neat as with a single, large duvet. It is also more difficult to snuggle up in the arms of your other half before going to bed, and some frustrations may arise. And whatever happens, we always hear the sound of our other half’s snoring.
