Sleep Enlightened editorial process 

Our editorial process includes the following:

Carefully selecting contributors

The in-house Sleep Enlightened editorial team carefully chooses outside content creators to contribute to our website. All of our contributors have years of experience reporting on sleep health and wellness and have been trained to meet our editorial standards. These standards include writing content that is genuinely helpful to readers and adheres to our brand voice, backing up facts with research, and interviewing credentialed experts when appropriate to add additional expertise.

Citing reputable research and studies in our content 

We take an evidence-based approach to our content. Across our content library, we cite studies published in reputable peer-reviewed journals and research conducted by respected organizations, such as medical associations and universities. 

Interviewing medical experts about complex sleep health topics 

Our contributors interview medical experts when writing about complex sleep health topics. We vet all quoted sources to ensure they have legitimate credentials before working with them. 

Medically reviewing sleep health content 

We work with our advisory panel (made up of medical and industry professionals across various specialties) to review select sleep health content on our website for accuracy. Learn more about our advisory panel here.

Undergoing mattress education training
