Gray Maynard Gets Ready For Next Fight

Gray Maynard, American Mixed Martial Artist (MMA) and Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) competitor, is preparing for the UFC 160 fight on May 25 by resting in the new Phiten Organic Sleeping Pod in between training sessions. The pod is infused with Phiten’s AQUA-TITANIUM® technology and is manufactured exclusively by The Futon Shop.
The Futon Shop wanted to test out the Phiten Organic Sleeping Pod on athletes that they feel need the most amount of rejuvenation between activities. The Futon Shop found the ideal test subject, Javier Mendez, world renowned MMA trainer, former ISKA Light-Cruiserweight / Light-Heavyweight Champion, and Owner / Founder of AKA Gym in San Jose, Calif. After one use, Mendez felt he “immediately experienced the rejuvenating benefits and began recommending the POD to the athletes [he] trains.”

Pick The Color Of Your Dreams

According to a new study about color and sleep, the color you choose can have a major effect on your sleep.

Colour Therapy & Holistic Interior Design consultant, Suzy Chiazzari, said: ‘Your bedroom décor can certainly impact upon your quality and quantity of sleep per night. 

HOW MUCH SLEEP DOES EACH COLOUR GIVE?

Blue7 hrs 52mins
Yellow7 hrs 40mins
Green 7 hrs 36 mins
Silver7 hrs 33 mins
Orange7 hrs 28 mins
Red6 hrs 58 mins
Gold6 hrs 43 mins
Grey6 hrs 12 mins
Brown 6 hrs 05 mins
Purple5 hrs 56 mins


According to the study:
"Although many people think purple creates a sense of luxury in the bedroom, this colour can reduce the number of hours of sleep you attain. 
‘Purple has a strong connection with the more artistic community being a colour reported to stimulate creativity and the unconscious mind. Therefore sleeping in a purple room is more likely to promote vivid dreams or even nightmares; resulting in you feeling tired in the morning." quote from the dailymail.co.uk




The Futon Shop's futon covers have any color you are looking for.

Taking A Stand Against Flame retardants

As a new mother to my now 15 month old toddler boy, I see the world differently. It took some time for my husband and I to get pregnant, but when we did, everything I put inside my body and all environmental surroundings were checked twice and looked at to see if it was safe. I bought 10 books just on pregnancy, and then when I had my child, I bought 10 more just for the first year. I became that mom I use to look at and laugh at. But, now that I am a mom, I understand why moms are so nervous about their babies health. The world is a danger zone with chemicals all around it. This is not just the dirt or germs in the bathroom. There are dangers in the home, and even in the babies room!

The more I learned through research and studies, pregnant women, babies, the sick, and the elderly really are the most vulnerable.

 There are so many flame retardants and pesticides in mattresses, I was shocked. This was my first lightbulb reaction when researching things while I was pregnant.  There are so many, but this post will be about mattresses.

The flame retardants that are put into furniture and mattresses have been proven to cause birth defects, cancer, and many more deadly and harmful side effects. Living in California I have always been proud to live here. I have always felt that as for many of the other states in the US...I believed and still believe that California is a state full of residents that are very Eco-Conscious. There are other states that are as well, including New York.  California has proven to be very active in voting for Props to help protect California residents from toxins like prop 65.

I recently wrote an article about flame retardants that was released in Yahoo news:

With growing concern with flame-retardants in upholstered furniture, The Futon Shop(TFS) gives consumers the choice and voice to purchase a chemical free futon sofa bed. TFS manufactures organic futon sofa beds free from any of the harmful chemicals listed from Prop 65. TFS, a futon mattress company that has been around since 1976, sees Californians in a real harmful situation because although TB117 has the best intention to protect people from fires in the home, the result has been more dangerous flame-retardants in upholstered furniture. TB117 states that all foam in upholstered furniture and baby products must withstand exposure to a small open flame for 12 seconds. But as a result, harmful flame-retardants are not being regulated and added to furniture with out the consumers knowledge.

In 2011, the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) added tris phosphate (TDCPP), a popular flame retardant in furniture to the Prop 65 list. And now the updated 2013 list has more fire retardants. For example, according to a recent Furniture Today article, written April 16, 2013, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) made a notice that BPA is a monomer used in manufacturing most polycarbonate plastics, which is a popular chemical in most flame-retardants.
