@Bridge1  i'm not buying it... it's a lot of $$$.  BUT, I'm also a believer.   Sometimes when I'm having trouble sleeping, I'll put a pillow over my torso,  I think it does what this blanket does, and it usually helps me sleep.

I just snuggle up to my furbaby and I'm off to la-la land.

            Hearing about this reminds me of Temple Grandin's research and insight into deep touch pressure and the calming effects it can have.   I can see how it might be beneficial in many ways, and so natural, too.

This is interesting. I was just watching an interview with a young autistic woman. She put on a deep pressure vest during the interview to help calm herself.
