Being too hot while in bed means sleeping badly or having a sleepless night. Follow these steps to stop feeling hot and rest better.
Steps
Step 1. Adjust the thermostat
Most digital thermostats can be automatically set to a certain temperature so that it varies at different times of the day. If you've tried this before but it didn't help, lower it further so that the house will be cool enough for you to sleep comfortably. Around 15 ° C is tolerable, but if you are still hot while sleeping, try lowering it one degree at a time. Don't forget to set your thermostat to automatically adjust to a warmer temperature just before you wake up in the morning
Step 2. Consider the clothing you use for sleeping
It is important to consider not only the amount of clothes you wear to go to bed, but also the fabrics they are made of. Some fabrics, such as cotton, allow the skin to breathe much better than others, such as polyester or elastane. If your skin can't do this, it will retain heat and continue to make you feel warm throughout the night. As a result, you will sweat while you are in bed. Choose pajamas that allow you to sleep comfortably
Step 3. Circulate the air
If the air you breathe in your bedroom is heavy, you risk feeling warm while you sleep, because you will be in this space for several hours. Adding a floor or ceiling fan can cool the room to help prevent sweating. To benefit even more, you could point it at your bed, so the fresh air will make you feel better as it swirls around the room
Step 4. Use the right blankets depending on the season you are in
If you use the same quilt or duvet all year round, you may want to reevaluate this habit. In the warmer months you should use a light blanket, while in the colder ones it is better to opt for a heavy quilt, perhaps in goose down. This factor is important to stay comfortable while you sleep, so make the right decision season after season depending on the climate of the place where you live. For example, it is possible that only one sheet is enough in the summer
