Why you shouldn't sleep naked to try and get to sleep when it's hot - and what you should wear instead
Greater Manchester and parts of the UK are currently enjoying a heatwave as temperatures hit 32C this week.
But this isn’t necessarily the case according to sleep expert Abbas Kanani, a superintendent pharmacist at Chemist Click Online Pharmacy."Although having less layers on the body can help you to feel more comfortable in the heat, wearing lightweight nightwear made from breathable fabrics helps draw sweat away from your body and makes you feel a lot cooler and more comfortable.”“Clothing made from natural fabrics like cotton or linen are breathable and absorbent,” Kanani recommended.
At this point, it is a great idea to open the windows to let in a breeze of cool external air into the bedroom, helping cool the room and to provide needed air circulation. Take a cool shower Right before you both go to bed, reduce your body temperature by having a cool shower. Your body temperature needs to drop when you go to sleep, giving it a helping hand by cooling off in a cool shower should help you get to sleep faster.
If you can bear it, sleep with your feet outside of the covers as well. We lose heat from our head and feet, by covering them you are trapping the heat. Set those toes free and feel cooler as a result.
