The Organic Cotton Covered Natural Wool-Filled Whole Body Pillow
supports side sleepers and eases pregnancy sleep issues
***
Made in the USA ***
When your regular pillow just isn't enough, you need the
comforting support of the Organic Cotton Covered Natural Wool-Filled
Whole
Body Pillow. Sturdily constructed for years of use yet soft and supple
enough even for the most fussy sleepers,
our Organic Cotton Covered Natural Wool-Filled Whole
Body Pillows are available
with an optional pillow case which we strongly recommend for maximum
pillow protection.
For those of you
new to this kind of pillow
design, the whole body pillow is not an accidental or experimental
pillow
concept. This pillow was originally designed for those who have
had a difficult time getting into a comfortable sleeping position due
to
low back
pain, arthritic hips, pregnancy, and a host of other possible sleeping
issues. Placing the whole body pillow between your legs and arms often
provides the excellent support and comfort we need for a more soothing
night's sleep. Many people love these pillows just because they're so
much
fun to
sleep on. Some people also use them as a prop when sitting up in bed or
on the floor.

About
Our EcoWool:
AbundantEarth.com uses Premium EcoWool from sheep raised respectfully and
humanely on Oregon and Washington farms. Though technically, not
certified
organic, the sheep are raised and the wool is processed in accordance
with organic and sustainable standards. The sheep are never "dipped" or
subjected
to chemical exposure in any way. The wool is then processed naturally,
unlike traditional "carbonized wool," which is washed with
hydrochloric acid and other chemicals applicants.
Also, our non-carbonized wool retains most of its natural lanolin on
the wool
fibers, where carbonization typically removes much of this valuable
lanolin.
Finally, unlike many processed wools, our wool is not treated with any
finish
chemicals such as chlorine or fresheners.

About Natural Wool's Inherent Qualities:
 Regulates
Temperature:
Wool is a natural insulator and helps to keep you warm in the winter.
Wool is also naturally breathable to keep you cooler in the summer.
Wool fibers help to keep your body at the optimal temperature for
maximum comfort and rest.
Naturally Absorbent Fiber: Wool fiber's
coil-like shape pulls
excess heat and moisture from your skin while you sleep. Wool fabrics
can absorb up to 30% of their weight without feeling heavy or damp. The
absorbent fibers "breathe" by wicking away moisture from the body and
releasing it into the air. This also aids in cooling you during warm
humid weather.
Mildew and Mold Resistant: Wool's natural
resistance to
mildews and molds comes from the way it repels moisture, and lets
moisture pass through it's fibers without holding the moisture. (Please
note that wool is mold and mildew resistant--not mold and mildew proof).
Perfect Insulator: Wool is warm in winter
and cool in the
summer because of its hydrophilic ability to wick away excess moisture.
In the winter, wool removes moisture from the skin to keep warm and dry
and wool’s insulating qualities trap dry air and warmth near the skin.
In the summer, wool’s coil-like shape pulls excess heat and moisture
from your skin helping to stay cooler.
Naturally Fire Retardant: Wool has natural
fire-retardant
properties. (High moisture content and protective lanolin is resistant
to combustion). It can resist flame without the chemical treatment
involved in fireproofing.
Naturally Non-Allergenic:
Wool, when separated by fabric casing, is almost entirely
non-allergenic. Although some may have a rare natural allergy to
lanolin, the oil found in wool, most people's allergy to wool is a
reaction to the many harsh and toxic chemicals that go into the
treatment, and finishing of conventional wool. Serious chemical
abrasives are routinely used to wash raw wool for processing. Chlorine
and moth proofing chemicals are routinely applied to conventional wool
before turning it into a finished product. Our wool has none of these
harsh chemicals applied.
