I'm menopausal too
After testing almost every type of sheet, one thing is clear; retailers don't sleep-test their sheets or if they do, they're not menopausal. Nothing works if you start with the wrong sheet.

Balance all layers
Temperature regulating sheets like ours can't do their job unless all layers in the bed are balanced. For best sleep, we help you balance your body layer, the sheet layer, and top layers.

15 years of testing
Sleep Layersâ„¢ is a set of tips developed over 15 years in a temperature controlled bedroom. It helps menopausal sleepers, hot sleepers, and both hot and cold sleepers in the same bed.
Sleep deprivation is torture. I've been there, it's horrible...

- Lack of sleep slows reaction times, reduces focus, memory, and decision-making ability. The impairment is similar to alcohol.
- It also makes regulating emotions harder, leading to irritability, mood swings, and over the long-term, anxiety and depression.
- Sleep is when the body repairs itself, so missing it weakens immune function. Regular broken sleep can also alter hunger and satiety hormones, leading to overeating, sugar cravings, and weight gain.
- Bad sleep disrupts blood sugar regulation, increasing risk of insulin resistance, while lowering daily energy and motivation.
- Chronic sleep deprivation is strongly linked to elevated blood pressure, heart disease, and stroke. Sleep disruption also prevents the brain from clearing toxins overnight, raising the risk of Alzheimers and dementia.
Why it works

- Heat regulation, not cooling - While most men sleep hot, as menopausal women, we're hot and cold. The right sheet forms a breathable base. Then multiple, light top layers, balance temperature swings during the night.
- No bamboo, natural fibres only - Bamboo sheets are rayon, and most hotel sheets contain polyester. Both trap heat. Some European hotels use 100% cotton sheets, woven for airflow. That's what we offer.
- Multiple, light top layers - With a little modification, many people already have the right top layers to get the most from our temperature regulating sheets. I offer options, choose what's best for you.
- Hot and cold sleepers in the same bed - When one partner runs hot and the other cold, a duvet is the enemy because it's one temperature. Proper layering allows you each to find your Goldilocks sleep temperature.
- Settle restless partners that keep you awake - My partner still sleeps when hot but he's restless, which keeps me awake. Our sheets, along with the right layers, helped settled him, interrupting my sleep less.
- The Classic Hotel Sheet is a real, cotton hotel sheet from Europe - That's why it's white! After 15 years of comparing it to other sheets, it hits a sweet-spot between thermo-regulation, crisp feel, and decent wear.
- Try for 60 nights - Sleep and wash for up to 60 nights. If our sheets don’t help when used with our Sleep Layers™ system, wash before returning for a full refund (yes, wash them people!). All returns are donated.
- Straight talk, no miracle cures - Menopause is complex. Sheets won’t fix everything but the wrong bedding will ruin your night. We fix your sheets and can help fix your bedding layers that break sleep. That's one less thing keeping you awake.
Christina says: "Layer right, sleep tight."

For many people, switching to our temperature regulating sheets is enough. But for me, it was also discovering the right layers. I call it Sleep Layersâ„¢ and this optional layering advice is emailed with every purchase.
How many layers?
The body layer: what you wear, or don’t wear to bed. The sheet layer: our breathable sheets, including a top sheet. The top layer: duvet, blankets, throws. I show you how to find the right layers for you, so everyone finds their individual Goldilocks temperature.
How natural?
Human-made fibres like polyester, bamboo, eucalyptus, rayon, Tencel® and other "plant-based" fibres can sound natural, but aren't. Worse, they trap heat. Even when blended with natural fibres, human-made fibres make us hotter. That’s why I stick with 100% cotton. When woven right, cotton works better than linen.
How light?
Weight matters. Whether from high thread counts, thicker yarns like linen, human-made fibres, or tighter, heat-trapping weaves like sateen, thicker fabrics for any reason, trap heat. The best sheets are light but strong, hence our cotton hotel sheets from Europe.
Emailed as part of your sheet purchase
Your after-purchase email will include my super easy Sleep Layersâ„¢ tips. Honestly, you'll kick yourself at how easy it is. Everyone's different, and every climate is different, so Sleep Layersâ„¢ is all about finding the right layers for you. It all begins with the right sheet but I only sell direct, so beware of imitations.
