How it works
Sunnie the Sloth uses Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT), a calming technique that applies gentle pressure to the body, similar to the feeling of a hug. This pressure activates your parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for helping you relax, recharge, and feel safe.
When you hug Sunnie or let his weighted arms wrap around you, it sends a signal to your brain that says:
"You're safe. You can slow down now."
This physical cue helps:
- Lower cortisol levels (the stress hormone)
- Reduce anxiety and overwhelm
- Calm racing thoughts
- Boost serotonin and dopamine (your happy and feel-good chemicals)
- Support better focus and sleep
Whether you’re at your desk, in bed, or on the couch, Sunnie provides an instant wave of calm when you need it most.

As seen on
Where the weight sits
Sunnie’s weight sits in the extra-long arms, so it wraps around you and stays close. Not a whole-body weighted plush that just rests on top of you.
Frequently asked questions
What’s the science behind this?
Our weighted animals use Deep Pressure Therapy (DPT), a calming technique shown to reduce stress and anxiety by lowering cortisol levels and stimulating your body’s natural relaxation response. It’s like a wearable weighted blanket, but way more cuddly.
Is it washable?
Yes! We recommend spot cleaning with a damp cloth for everyday messes. For deeper cleaning, hand wash gently and air dry.
Can I sleep with Sunnie?
Absolutely. Many people love sleeping with our weighted animals for nighttime anxiety or insomnia. Their weight and softness can help calm your nervous system and promote deeper sleep.
Is it safe for kids or pets?
Anyone above the age of 5 can benefit from Sunnie!
All our weighted animals have the CPC Certificate (Children's Product Certificate) for product safety tested in the US, as well as the CE mark for product safety tested in the EU.
Due to his weight, we don’t recommend it for very young children or pets.
How heavy is Sunnie?
Sunnie weighs 1kg / 2.2 lbs, just enough to provide calming pressure without feeling too heavy. The weight is placed on Sunnie's arms so it can actually hug you and hold on to you while you work. It’s perfect for hugging while working, relaxing, or sleeping.
What if I don’t feel better right away?
Everyone’s nervous system is different. Some people feel relief instantly, while others notice benefits after a few consistent uses. Either way, Sunnie the Sloth is there for you for the long-haul!
