I turned 30 on the 23rd of this past month and I can confidently say that I am accepting and welcoming of my thirties. What I am not a fan of is how certain parts of my body need a little more attention as I age. One of the more prominent areas has been my neck and my inability to fall asleep peacefully due to constant pain. I invested in a REALLY plush (not so inexpensive) Ugg pillow over a year ago thinking it would be the solution to all my late night problems. Turns out although soft, it wasn't providing the support I needed.

According to the University of Rochester Medical Center your pillow should not only support you head but the natural curve of your neck. They recommend choosing a pillow that will keep the neck aligned with the chest and lower back to avoid putting your neck into a position that causes muscle strain on your back, neck, and shoulders.
So 3 weeks before entering a new decade I found myself up late researching the best "orthopedic" pillows for neck pain. Let me tell you I think I found the one and I want to share it with you all!
Contour Memory Foam Pillow Orthopedic Sleeping Pillow
Price: $41.99
Based on the size of my bed (CA King) I ordered a Queen.
Okay don't let the name or shape deter you this will give you so of the best sleep you've had in a while.
The Tip: Using it without a pillowcase is the key to getting maximum comfort!
