Lifestyle Furniture Summer Sale - NOW ON in our main showroom and our second home at Tynwald Mills, St Johns, Isle of Man.

Did you know summer is the season of self-care?

After the rush and roar of the Isle of Man TT races, we’re all ready for more rays and relaxation. More kicking back and basking in the glow. More lie-ins after later nights.

With longer, brighter days, we can all reap immunity-boosting vitamin D rewards as we spend more hours soaking up the sun. The fairer weather also encourages us to get out and move about, enjoying the invigorating fresh Manx air and spectacular countryside and coast — a balm for our minds, as well as our bodies.

But with ‘feel-good’ seemingly freely available, it’s important to remember some general wellness basics in the summer months.

Too bright for “goodnight”?

Even with our Island’s rapidly changeable climate, there are two things you’re guaranteed to get more of in the summertime: heat and light.

While there’s no doubt that both can be great for your mood, they can also play havoc with your sleep pattern. After a while of tossing and turning in a room that’s just too bright and warm, you can wave goodbye to that sunshine mood-boost!

Fortunately, there are a couple of tweaks you can make to your sleep sanctuary that will bring back the zzz factor. Let’s start with your bed.

Whether you prefer springs, memory foam, or a bit of both, the breathable fabrics and materials used in newer modern mattresses can help enormously with temperature regulation, absorbing and releasing body heat to give you a more relaxed night’s sleep. If you’re struggling in a smaller bed, it might also be worth sizing up to a king or super-king size. (Trust us, it’s been the saviour of many relationships!)

Cover with a lighter tog duvet or sheet for those evenings when the mercury’s hitting the highs.

Too bright for “goodnight”? It’s a perfect time to change up your window treatments. Thicker curtains and blackout blinds will give you the shade you need while decreasing heat levels. Opt for lighter colours, as they tend to reflect sunlight, keeping your space cooler. Made-to-measure curtains and blinds tailored perfectly to the size of your windows can also stop those pesky rays from sneaking into your bedroom through nooks, crannies, and around the edges.

Finally, have a think about your regular sleep pattern. While it can be beneficial to try and maintain it and stick to a schedule, you may also want to fill the longer days with more activities. If you’re looking forward to extra hours spent being a social butterfly, why not plan in regular siestas? If you can top up your sleep around your schedule, you’ll be able to maintain your energy levels whilst giving your body the rest it needs.

Are you dreaming of refreshing summer nights? In the Lifestyle Furniture Summer Sale, you can discover sun-sational savings across our incredible range of luxurious beds and mattresses from some of the world’s finest manufacturers — plus offers on our amazing selection of ready-made and made-to-measure blinds and curtains.

Go alfresco

One of the great joys of a Manx summer? Blazing golden sunshine, mixed with the occasional cooling, salty sea air breeze! (Well, when it’s not blowing a hoolie out, at least.)

If there’s a time to get out and enjoy our much-envied outdoors, it is now. Our Island is blessed with verdant hills and countryside, sandy and rocky beaches, and quaint little pathways through towns, villages, and glens beyond.

Make the most of it. Even a short half-hour wander can do wonders for your physical and mental health.

Of course, when the sun’s out, there’ll be buns out. At some point, a familiar smoky scent will invade your nostrils, tantalising your tastebuds with the prospect of assorted flame-grilled treats.

When you’re inspired to dust off and wheel out the barbecue, why not give your garden a makeover? Explore our garden and outdoor furniture collection for sublime alfresco dining sets, lounge and bistro sets, and outdoor bars — with selected items available now in our Summer Sale.

And while you’re eating, drinking, and making merry, don’t forget to stay hydrated and use plenty of sunscreen.

The real dim & shady (please sit down)

As much as we love to welcome the sunshine, you can have too much of a good thing.

From dehydration to heatstroke, the effects of hot weather can be extremely harmful, especially to older people and those with long-term health conditions.

Avoiding too much physical activity and keeping out of the sun from 11am – 3pm can help you avoid the worst of the heat. Drink plenty of cold water, eat cooler foods, and wear light clothing and a hat.

If you’re sitting this one out in the comfort of your own home, dim and shady is the way to go! Keep your windows closed during the day, but open them at night to let the cooler air in. It can also be a good idea to close your blinds and curtains to keep the temperature down in rooms that get a lot of sunlight.

Our cheeky recommendation? Take the opportunity to grab a siesta! Super comfortable, supportive, and oh-so sumptuous, we’re sure you’ll fall in love with our unrivalled range of beautiful sofas. From modular and corner sofas, to cuddler chairs and 2, 3 and 4-seaters, plenty of savings can be found on our finest pieces in our Summer Sale.
