Ever heard of a porcelain pillow – you know, the kind used in ancient China to support the neck but protect intricate geisha hairstyles? It sounds pretty uncomfortable to me - but a pillow infused with soothing oils to relieve cold congestion, or a “water pillow” with a relaxing thermal water-filled pouch, now those are things I’d like to try out. If you’re planning a trip and want to experiment with sleep, check out Conrad Hotels, which are offering guests an interesting variety of pillows to enhance and deepen sleep. And hey, if you like their organic buckwheat pillow, or fall in love with a fragranced romance pillow, I want to hear all about it.
