How the “Goose & Lily Pink Pattern” Helps You Unwind & Sleep Better After a Long Day

It's my day off again!

This means having time to design, to deep clean my apartment, and sleep sound and long. 

I don't known about you but after dragging myself through the workday grind, I always crave for a sound sleep. 

That’s what inspired me to design the Goose and Lily Pink Pattern for Girls – Cute Waterlily Repeat Design Throw Blanket — graceful geese gliding among waterlilies, all on a soft pink background. 

And maybe this sounds a bit dreamy, but I really believe this design can help you calm down, feel more relaxed at home, and even sleep better. Here’s why (with some research to back it up):

Why Nature & Patterns Calm the Mind

1. Visual rest & soft fascination
   When your brain is overloaded from meetings, emails, traffic, etc., you’ve been using directed attention all day. Natural scenes help with attention restoration: the “attention restoration theory” says that looking at nature or natural-like patterns gives your minds a chance to recover. Simple, gentle shapes like waterlilies floating, soft curving lines, and silhouettes of geese produce what psychologists call soft fascination — they draw your attention gently without demanding it. 

2. Lowering stress and cortisol
   Studies show that exposure to natural environments, even just visually (photos, paintings, nature scenes), can reduce stress markers (including cortisol) and lower blood pressure. That tension in your shoulders, racing mind, etc., can ease. 

3. Nature imagery improves mood and wellbeing
   Being around—or even viewing—green, floral, or watery imagery has been tied to improved mood, reduced anxiety, and more positive feelings. One study found that virtual nature exposure over several weeks reduced anxious arousal and worry. So while geese or waterlilies might seem whimsical, they tap into deeper responses of calm. 

4. Creating a peaceful home environment supports better sleep
   After a tiring day our bodies need cues that “okay, no more stress, time to wind down.” Environments that feel soothing help signal to your nervous system that it’s safe to relax. The softness of pink tones, the gentle repetition in a pattern (like our goose + waterlily repeat), and nature motifs help ease visual stimulation rather than increase it.

How the Goose & Lily Pattern Can Be Your Evening Ritual

Here are some practical ideas for making the pattern work for you:

• Bedroom walls or pillows: Place the pattern on a throw pillow or bedspread — something you see just before you lie down. The gentle imagery sets a calm mood.

• Lighting matters: Use soft warm lighting to complement the pastel pink background. Bright overhead lights + bold patterns can overstimulate; combine with lamps or dimmers.

• Digital backgrounds: If you use the pattern on a screen (phone, computer), set it as wallpaper before sleep hours. It may be less intrusive than more active or busy visuals.

• Pair with natural textures: Wood, linen, and nature sounds (birds maybe!) help reinforce the calmness the pattern brings.

Research Highlight

One study (for example) had participants viewing nature scenes before a stressful task; those who had views of nature recovered more quickly (lower stress response) than those without. PubMed Central

Another: a study on virtual nature exposure (images/videos) over time showed reductions in anxious arousal and chronic worry in students. Nature

So yes, even though a repeat pattern isn’t the same as physically walking in a garden, your brain responds even to representations of nature.

My Promise to You

I designed Goose & Lily Pink Pattern with care: gentle, friendly geese (nothing harsh or scary), waterlilies that float rather than crowd, and a pink background that feels soft, not glaring. I believe it can be a little sanctuary — something you see in your room and feel the day’s tension melt.

Sleep more peacefully. Feel calmer. Let this pattern whisper ease to your senses.
