A new study has shown that if we are rocked to sleep, like we do babies, we would reap huge benefits. Researchers at the University of Geneva built a special bed that rocked gently throughout the night and when they tested it on young adults, they found the sleepers woke up fewer times during the night and reportedly slept more deeply than on a normal bed.
Not only would we benefit from better sleep in a rocking bed, but we’d also improve our memory too, as the rocking motion results in deeper sleep which aids memory.
