QUESTION: How does temperature affect sleep?

Answer

The ambient temperature in the bedroom has a colossal impact on a person's ability to fall asleep and the depth of night rest. The human body is designed so that for a successful immersion in sleep, its internal temperature must naturally decrease slightly.

A cool atmosphere in the room, ranging from 18 to 20 degrees Celsius, is considered optimal for quality sleep. Such air temperature promotes effective body heat dissipation and signals to the brain that it is time to rest.

There are several scientifically proven ways to help the body thermoregulate properly before sleep.

•Take a warm bath or shower one to two hours before bedtime, which will lead to vasodilation and rapid subsequent cooling of the body.
•Keep your feet warm by putting on light socks, as vasodilation in the feet accelerates the cooling process of the central part of the body.
•Avoid overheating in the bedroom, as excessive heat and stuffiness disrupt the sleep structure, cause frequent micro-awakenings, and daytime fatigue.

Maintaining the correct microclimate in the room combined with high-quality bedding made of natural "breathable" materials allows you to create ideal conditions for the full restoration of the body's strength.
