However, the idea of lighter mornings is a slightly trickier one for anyone who doesn’t have shutters or iron-clad blinds.
Waking with the sun sounds like a peaceful, romantic action in theory, but we’re not on a yoga retreat in the mountains and we’d appreciate getting as much shut-eye as we possibly can before tackling our inevitably long to-do lists.

“We also travel/sleep away from home often and thought it would be helpful to be able to take it with me. It went up easily and blocked out the light nearly completely.”
While another customer claimed the blinds had helped her get “better quality of sleep”.
