Drew Barrymore gets real about her sleeping habits

An actress and talk show host, Drew Barrymore, recently revealed the surprising sleeping position she discovered during her pregnancy and still swears by today.

The 49-year-old star had her two daughters more than ten years ago, but her current favourite sleeping position is one she found out when she was pregnant.

Speaking to PEOPLE magazine, Drew said, “I sleep with a body pillow like I’m still pregnant!”

Drew quipped, “Being a mom, businesswoman, and someone whose mind is constantly racing, it can feel not just challenging but impossible. I used to toss and turn throughout the night or stay up staring at the ceiling, unable to fall asleep.”

“More recently, I’ve become a bit of a hot sleeper (thanks, hormones), which really affects how well I sleep and whether I can make it throughout the night without waking up. Or if I do, if I can fall back asleep at all,” the mother of two added.

The Blended actress went on to claim that resting in a cool environment had been a “game-changer.”

She noted, “I've always preferred sleeping in a cooler room, but using cooling bedding has made my sleep environment absolutely perfect. It sets me up to achieve deeper and more restful sleep.”

Drew concluded by saying that she had “never slept better” since she started using the brand’s Evercool Cooling Comforter.

It is significant to mention that the Scream star, who knows the importance of good sleep, collaborated with Rest, a bedding essential brand, in November as the brand's official "Sleep Wellness Advocate."
