 Rainforest Giants, Tiny Seeds,

& Your Sleep 💤

Deep in the rainforests of the world and scattered throughout subtropical regions, you will find some very special massive trees that tower up to 20 stories high. 😲

Some live to be well over 100 years old, and although they are giant, they’re especially gentle!  🌲

This special tree is the Kapok Tree, and her seed pods which are between 3 and 6 inches long, contain up to 200 of the fluffiest little seeds you’ve ever seen! 

These fluffy little seeds not only hold the genetic materials for growing another giant Kapok tree, they also hold the secret to a restful night’s sleep! 💤






As you may already know, White Lotus Home is a small, family owned business. Each of the WLH family members was recently asked what their favorite pillows were, and every single one of them responded with “Kapok!”, and here’s what they each said about why: 

🛌 George's Allergy-Free Dream 🛌

George found relief with his Kapok Pillow saying, 

It helped with my allergies, and I like how comfortable it is. I could never get comfortable on conventional pillows.” 


😌 Veronika's Neck Pain Relief 😌

Our Veronika found her neck pain's kryptonite in the Kapok Pillow saying,

With conventional pillows, I had many knots in my neck and I always spent so much time tossing and turning to get myself in a comfortable position. Not only does the Kapok Pillow provide perfect support for me, but it also ensures temperature control throughout the night so I stay comfortable and don’t wake up too hot.”


🌛 Marlon's Side Sleeper Solution 🌛

White Lotus Home’s President, Marlon, shared his Kapok Pillow love saying, 

I love our Kapok Sleeping Pillows!! I'm a big time side sleeper. It works great for that, and also when I lay on my back. Before switching to Kapok, I didn’t know what I was missing and how I was making myself sick every time I used a conventional pillow. 

This is why I take one or two with me every time I travel. I used to be allergic to so many things, and almost 20 years later I only have some seasonal allergies. The KaPillow and Kapok body pillows are superb, but nothing beats taking a Kapok Pillow on the Road!!” 


💤 Elizabeth's Side & Stomach Sleeper's Haven 💤

Elizabeth found her perfect pillow with Kapok saying,  

“It’s hard to remember a time without WLH pillows, but for the most part I feel conventional pillows were never supportive enough. I would need to purchase multiple pillows to get the best support, and it would never meet my final comfort needs. With the Kapok Pillow, the medium fill is soft but supportive and just the best option for me as a side & stomach sleeper. ”

Support Your New Year, Naturally. 🌱

Why “Rituals” May Be More Powerful Than “Resolutions”

A New Year is a great time to consider where you’ve come from, where you’re going, your new goals, and the state of your health. However, the problem with typical resolutions is that they can be tough to achieve, making it easy to lose motivation and give up if you don’t see progress quickly.  

The truth is, big results come from small actions done consistently. It’s the persistence part that’s key. Even the most skilled climbers hike up Mount Everest one step at a time, over and over and over.  

So perhaps instead of resolving to “lose 20 pounds” in the New Year, you could begin with a small, consistent ritual like drinking 8 glasses of water daily and squeezing in 2-3 workouts each week. It feels less intimidating, and you’ll likely see tangible progress without your goal feeling so insurmountable. 

If your New Year’s resolutions include focusing on your health and taking better care of yourself, we can help! Here are a few ways you can make big changes by starting some simple, small rituals:

Reduce Neck Pain by Going Contour

Have you ever woken up with a pain in your neck? There’s a contour pillow for that! Sleeping on a contour pillow can help keep your spine in alignment, which can reduce pain in your neck and shoulders. Our contour pillows are all natural AND more affordable than our competitors. Check those out here.




Reduce Your Exposure to Harmful Toxins

From body & household cleaning products to pollution in the air, modern living bombards us with harmful toxins all day long. However, you can give your brain and body a much needed break for 8 hours each night with pure, all natural bedding and pillows. Then you’ll give your brain and body time to repair and rejuvenate every single day, which can lead to big health benefits in the long run! 

 



Reduce Your Impact on the Planet

It’s estimated that Americans dispose of an estimated 20 million mattresses and box springs every year. You can reduce your own waste every year simply by investing in a mattress that can be used for many years and even be recycled or composted when you are finished with it!   




PILLOWS TO SUPPORT YOUR NEW YEAR’S GOALS!

From improving your overall self-care to going on more adventures, there’s a WLH pillow to support you in achieving your goals for 2022!

🌟 Starting a Meditation or Yoga Practice?: Support your practice with the perfect, all-natural pillow. Shop Meditation Pillows here

🌟 Reading more books?: Make a cozy reading nook with an Eco-Foam Bean Bag, a neck roll, a set of two Upcycled Toss pillows, or use a toddler pillow as a floor pillow! With a comfortable space, you’ll look forward to cozying up with a book more often this year. 😀

🌟 Better Self-Care?: Treat yourself to ANY pure & natural pillow of your choice to kick your daily self-care rituals up a notch!

Spilling the Tea ☕ on Contour Pillows

We took a hard look at conventional contour pillows and found some surprising discoveries that we’ll tell you all about. 

     

In today’s issue:

  • 3 big problems with conventional contour pillows
  • Some toxins commonly found in memory foam that everyone should be aware of
  • Take 20% off any pillow of your choice!

 

Contour Pillows

The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly

Contour pillows have gained popularity in recent years, and it’s for good reason. They offer a number of incredible benefits, like:

  • Spinal alignment 
  • Relief from pain, soreness, and stiffness
  • Support for your neck, head, and shoulder

But there are a handful of BIG problems with many of the conventional contour pillows out there. 

  • They’re not adjustable. Once you bought one, you were stuck with its shape and firmness.
  • They’re synthetic. Most conventional contour pillows are made of materials like memory foam which could contain any number of potentially toxic chemicals. For example, diisocyanates are chemicals commonly used in memory foam that can irritate the mouth, nose, and eyes, and TDI, in particular, may be carcinogenic.
  • They’re expensive! Despite being one shape and firmness and potentially packed with toxic chemicals, you could break the bank buying one! 

When we started exploring the design of contour pillows at White Lotus Home a few years ago, we knew we had to create a solution to this problem… 

And that’s precisely what we did. 

A pillow designed with you in mind that’s all-natural, completely adjustable, and even costs LESS than its competitors…

Please meet... The KaPillow

The KaPillow’s design is simple. It’s a soft, organic cotton sateen casing, filled with our natural Kapok fiber with a half-seam in the center, creating a dip for your head, and leaving a lip on either side to support your neck. 

Unlike typical contour pillows, we made our KaPillow easy to adjust because we know just how important it is for the firmness and shape to be just right. 

To adjust your KaPillow, you can simply unzip the case and add or remove filling as you see fit until it’s perfect for you! 

 

Ready to Kick Neck Pain and Toxic Chemicals to the Curb? ✌

Treat yourself to an all-natural contour pillow that’s affordable, effective, and completely adjustable. You deserve it!

Picky Millennials Might Be Saving the Planet

How Today’s Everything Buyers Are Forcing Brands to Shape Up (Or Ship Out)

NEW BRUNSWICK, NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES, March 31, 2020 /EINPresswire.com/ -- There is nobody more discerning in modern history than the millennial buyer.

Call him what you will, but today’s late 20’s to early 40s aged buyer is deliberate bordering on the fickle, and it shows. Research shows that more than 63% of purchases made online are made based on user-generated content, ranging from Amazon reviews to unboxing videos on YouTube.

But as the social media takeover gets a new kind of foothold, consumers are exercising an even more potent buyer right: the right to take sales from the companies who don’t give a crap.

The Buyers With the Heart On Their Sleeve

Boomers and Gen-Xers may lament the studious tastes of their generational successors, but the fact is that these buyers are about to make up the majority of the nation’s economic might.

In 2018, millennials were projected to overtake Gen-Xers as the carriers for the single largest buying power in the United States, with an estimated $200 billion in collective annual spending.

But this generation spends its money unlike any other, and if there’s one thing the data shows, it’s that the economic constraints of the highest cost of living in decades hasn’t phased them — they’re living frugally, and still putting their money into purchases from ethical brands.

On average, most millennials spend their time and money in places and experiential purchases that are value aligned, meaning they’re willing (and able) to spend more money on things like organic produce, whereas they might save money by cohabitating with friends or family members.

In most cases, what’s most remarkable about this generation is that they’re 75% more likely to buy from a company whose values align with their own.

Millennials are putting their money where their mouth is, and their mouth is fed up with unsustainable business models that take endlessly from the environment.

Greenwashing Is a Bust

About five years ago, marketing terms like ‘natural’ and ‘green’ would fly enough to give companies a spike in interest for conscientious buyers. Over time however, shoppers opened up to the idea that they were being manipulated, and the game got blown wide open.

It shows tremendous restraint on the part of the buyers to hold out and pay more for ethical brands. Now things like MadeSafe and GOTS-certified are the new standards in eco-validation, and buyers are more aware all the time of ways to identify the frauds and the fakes in the business.

The label-reading generation who elicited so many eyerolls in its early days is in its renaissance of making changes, and the effects are rippling out to wider profit margins in value-aligned industries not seen since the dawn of inflation.

Brands are capitalizing on the response in the best way — by greening their businesses, and creating conscious enterprises that operate as a force for good.

It’s Supply and Demand, Baby

For small companies like White Lotus Home, an eco-friendly bedding supplier, the change is hardly a shocker.

“Today’s businesses have to adapt to the “organic” change and understand that Millennials, and even some Gen Xers, read labels and do their homework before shopping. They’re changing many industries,” says President Marlon Pando.

The homegrown New Jersey based company has just celebrated one of its latest in ethical manufacturing achievements: becoming GOTS certified.

“When I started working for White Lotus Home in 2006, it was good enough for customers to know that we were doing our best to be natural and organic, but now they look for proof beyond marketing, they need facts.

At White Lotus Home, integrity has been key, word of mouth is responsible for over 70% of our business and becoming GOTS was the best next step.”

In 2018, a whopping 85% of purpose-driven brands saw positive revenue growth, compared to the 42% of non-purpose driven brands who saw a DROP in revenue.

The numbers speak for themselves: positive changes might exist in the hands of conscious enterprises like White Lotus Home.

White Lotus Home is a sustainable bedding manufacturer selling mattresses, duvets, pillows, sheets, and more online and in-store at their New Jersey showroom location. They’re committed to producing clean, hypoallergenic environmental change, one mattress at a time.
