The Best Gifts for Encouraging Great Sleep in 2023
We all know at least one person who struggles to get a good night's sleep every night, and as we approach winter and the nights grow colder and longer, those troubles can only get more pronounced.
That's why we think that gifts that encourage better sleep are a good bet for pretty much anyone on your holiday shopping list. If you're not sure where to start, we have some great suggestions for you below.
P.J. Salvage Stars and Paws PJ Set ($100) and Chill Out Family Set Doggie Sweater ($32)
Changing into a pair of great pajamas can be just the thing to start getting the mind into a good place for sleep, and we happen to think PJs should be both comfy and cute. Enter P.J. Salvage and their Stars and Paws PJ Set, featuring a sweet holiday pup pattern while also benefiting the dog rescue non-profit Love Leo Rescue. Any dog-obsessed pet parent will also appreciate the adorable doggie sweater PJs the brand has on offer, so both human and dog can sleep in luxury.

CURVD Everday Earplugs: $15.95
Sound can be a serious disrupter to sleep, which is why any light sleeper needs a hard-working pair of earplugs in their arsenal. CURVD's Everyday Earplugs are ergonomically designed to be comfortable enough that the wearer won't feel them while also providing up to 30 dB of sound reduction—plus, we think they also look super sleek.

Fleur Marché Sleep, Plz: $6
Some people's circadian rhythms need extra help beyond good sleep hygiene, which is where supplements come in. Fleur Marché's Sleep, Plz patch is a sticker that's worn to deliver melatonin through the skin to help the wearer fall asleep and stay asleep for longer.

Dream Well by More Labs: $30.60
Dream Well by More Labs is another excellent sleep supplement that's simply designed to do more. It contains a combination of glycine, lemon balm, jujube extract, evodia rutaecarpa extract and melatonin to help calm the body and mind before bed, as well as help customers fall asleep faster. We also love that this small sip has a tropical guava flavor that makes us look forward to it on tough nights.

Moon Juice Sleepy Magnesi‑Om: $42
A lack of magnesium in the diet can be a factor in poor sleep. Magnesium supplements like Moon Juice's Magnesi-Om are excellent for combatting this, and their new Sleepy Magnesi-Om does even more with melatonin to help regulate circadian rhythm, without leaving you still groggy in the morning. We also appreciate the rich blackberry flavor and sugar-free formula.
