Sleep style questionnaire
Learning to listen to how we sleep
We spend about one third of our lives sleeping, yet we rarely stop to look at how we actually sleep. Answer a few questions to observe your own way of sleeping and discover which sleep profile describes you best.
How to read your answers
Mostly A = Sensitive / Perceptive sleeper
Your body picks up every detail: temperature, pressure, micro-movements. Sleep for you is a matter of listening and subtle balance.
What disturbs you is often not simply “too soft” or “too firm”, but whatever fails to adapt to change — seasons, body, daily rhythms.
What truly helps: natural, breathable materials that accompany the body without imposing.
Mostly B = Balanced / Adaptive sleeper
Your body seeks harmony and continuity. You sleep best when nothing dominates: neither rigidity nor excess softness.
Comfort, for you, is something that builds over time, night after night.
What truly helps: well-balanced systems that support without stiffening and welcome without collapsing.
Mostly C = Structured / Stable sleeper
Your body values stability and clear support. You need to feel held, contained, guided by a defined structure.
Sleep, for you, is recovery, regeneration, order.
What truly helps: reliable supports and materials that maintain their qualities over time.
Many people are a hybrid of two profiles. Sleeping well is not a fixed definition, but a relationship that evolves. Understanding how you sleep is the first step; choosing how to support it comes next.
Your sleep profile is a starting point, not a label. Now that you know how your body tends to sleep: more Sensitive, Balanced or Structured. We can help you turn these insights into a concrete sleep system: the right materials, layers and seasonal combinations for your way of resting.
Share your answers with a Midsummer expert and we’ll:
• interpret your profile in more detail,
• suggest the most suitable Midsummer mattress or bed system,
• recommend seasonal toppers and accessories to keep your comfort stable all year round.
Sleep is personal. Your bed should be too.
