Sometimes it's easy to drift off into deep, uninterrupted sleep, but other times you might spend hours tossing and turning, only to never reach that desired restful state. Even celebrities like Jennifer Aniston struggle to catch some good Zzzs from time to time, but the Murder Mystery 2 star recently revealed the genius sleep hack that's helped her zonk out: weighted blankets.

"I have a weighted blanket and that is another game-changer," the actress said in an interview with Real Simple. "I got one about two years ago, and that's very helpful for sleep."

Weighted blankets, which are generally filled with small glass beads, have seen a spike in popularity in recent years due to the fact that they can aid in reducing insomnia, fatigue, anxiety, and depression, according to a recent small, controlled study published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine.

When it comes to adding a weighted blanket to your bedroom lineup, you'll want one that's suitable for all seasons, and this popular option by Yescool is made of breathable fabric that's actually cooling, reviewers confirm. One shopper with hot flashes said, "No more waking up soaked in sweat," adding that it "stays cool."

The blanket is filled with glass beads, which are stitched into compartments in a quilted pattern that help evenly distribute weight and prevent leakage. You can get it in several different weights, ranging from 5 pounds to 20 pounds, and it comes in six chic colors, including white, gray, and pink.
