Baloo
We've all been there -- you're lying in bed after a long day and your brain refuses to shut off. Racing thoughts, tense muscles, and anxiety that you're not yet asleep! Sleep is imperative for the optimal functioning of our bodies and brains and when we don't get enough of the deep kind, we're left sluggish and more prone to stress and irritability. That's where Baloo comes in -- the natural and oh-so-comforting solution for sleepless nights or moments of anxiety. Their weighted blankets are made with lead-free glass microbeads and soft chemical-free cotton, offering the perfect amount of stress-relieving pressure that soothes the nervous system and promotes a sense of calm and ease.
In 2017, Baloo founder, Elizabeth Grojean, quit her corporate job and booked a one-way flight to Bali. Burned out and confused about what her next steps should be, she took this time to revisit who she knew herself to be, sans job title and responsibilities. Upon returning to her home in NYC, refreshed and rejuvenated, Elizabeth quickly realized that her previous way of life was not going to cut it. Driven by the ambition of working for herself, she began to research weighted blankets and was blown away by their unique ability to bring balance to people's lives. From there, she launched Baloo Living, and a new era of thoughtfully designed, sustainably, and ethically made weighted blankets was born!
