During the January 12 presentation entitled “Managing Sleep and Stress For Peak Performance,” Dr. Maas offered his insights on sleep as it relates to on-the-job performance, and offered solutions for achieving better sleep, including the new line of Sleep for Success! pillows. Sleep for Success! bedding products, including his four new bed pillows, Stress Ease™ Travel Pillows, Stress Ease™ Comfort Reader™ pillows, comforter and mattress pad, were also offered as giveaways during the event.
Dr. Maas, also known as “America’s Sleep Doctor,” has partnered with United Feather & Down to develop the Sleep for Success! by Dr. James B. Maas pillow collection, each piece built to help provide a better sleep experience by aligning the body in the correct position for sleep and regulating body temperature via the latest breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics and fills. The pillows were designed based on the extensive bedding expertise of United Feather & Down, and Dr. Maas’ decades of researching Americans' sleep habits. The Sleep for Success! collection can currently be found at The Great Indoors (http://www.thegreatindoors.com).
