Claudia Schiffer keeps these 3 decorative items on her bedside table to promote wellness – and her chic, meditative style is easy to recreate
The supermodel's bedtime routine is just as beautiful as it is relaxing – it includes a Diptyque candle favored by celebrities and perfumers


Sleep rituals are usually meditative practices; but they are also aesthetic pursuits. In other words, transforming your bedroom into a beautiful sanctuary promotes ultimate relaxation just as much as using essential oils or meditating. Supermodel Claudia Schiffer knows just how to strike this balance.
She explained how she nails her bedtime routine, in an interview with Net-a-Porter. Schiffer stated: 'On my bedside table I have my iPad (for watching a TV series in the evening), a novel, healing crystals, a ceramic plate for my jewelry and a Diptyque candle.' Though each of these items is relaxing in different ways, the latter three have the added benefit of beauty.
For instance, using crystals at home is a wonderful tool for meditation because they look just as chic on the bedside table as when they're in use. Our editor's pick of naturally cut crystals is especially so. Similarly, a luxurious candle like the one from Diptyque has a beautiful container, even when it's not burning. As for the ceramic plate Schiffer uses for her jewelry, the sky is the limit for stylish catch-alls that elevate a bedside table.
Tangy and herby, this fresh-picked blackcurrant candle is unlike any other. It is a harmonious fragrance that unites its flowery rose notes with the berry notes. Its beautiful container means it looks great on any shelf or coffee table. It's also a favorite of Victoria Beckham.
This egg-shaped catchall is perfect for storing your jewelry on the bedside table. Its beautiful gold shade is the perfect complement to any bedside table.
Rose quartz is known as the 'love stone' and is great for pre-bedtime wellness rituals. These raw stones have the added benefit of beauty, and would look gorgeous
Schiffer relies on the items she stores on her nightstand for better sleep to promote relaxation. She told Net-a-Porter: 'When I can't sleep I have my Epsom salts bath, meditate with the Calm app, light a candle (usually Baies by Diptyque), and I like to have a cup of camomile tea at bedtime.'
The supermodel's love for this candle demonstrates the transformative power of scent in our homes. Smell is the sense most associated with memory, so creating a strong association between a certain fragrance and bedtime can help your body and brain feel instantly more relaxed upon entering your bedroom. Furthermore, beautiful smells create the cozy ambiance often associated with a place like a spa, turning any room into a sanctuary.
The best bedtime routines are both relaxing and aesthetically pleasing. You can't go wrong with a luxurious candle, a pretty catch-all, and chic crystals.
