For many, sleeping in the heat can be unbearable. “Bedtime is our body’s time to process, recover and repair, but it’s highly influenced by our body temperature,” says sleep scientist Lana Eyeington. But you can still sleep well during a scorcher – without blasting the aircon. Here’s how.
KEEP THE HEAT OUT
A stuffy bedroom can make sleeping impossible. Ideally, a room should be cool, dark and peaceful. “During the day, block out the heat from the sun by closing the windows and curtains. Then, as the day starts to cool down, open the windows and let some air in,” Eyeington says.
Switch the heavier sheets and doona for lighter, more breathable bed linen. “Use cotton sheets and cotton bedding. The lower the thread counts, the better – fewer fibres mean more air flows through the sheets, making it more breathable,” she says.
