Sleep in a cold or warm temperature? (1 Viewer)

[seungfloral]

I literally am struggling with my horrible sleep. I sleep 5 hours during the week day, and only sleep in on saturday while also having problems of waking up to my alarm. ON TOP OF ALL OF THIS! I can't fall asleep if my room is too hot...
How does this work? Cause i must be under covers and snuggled in smth, but i detest if my whole room is warm, even in winter.

Cold cause you can add layers, you can only take off so many if you’re too warm

I have no heat that actually goes to my room, the vent is broken. So in the winter (I’m in Canada for context so it’s really cold) it is nearly as cold as it is outside. We found a little space heater so it makes it bearable. And I got a fan for the summer cause it gets soooo hot as no air conditioning comes through the vents. But I would definitely take the cold over the hot because I can always add layers.

Those are some survival conditions. I sleep in the attic part of the house. So it's always hotter here

Cold. It's easy to control how warm you are using layers. Also, physiologically speaking, you will produce more Melatonin when you're in a cooler state... since the body temperature naturally drops when you sleep, you'll fall asleep faster in a cooler room because your brain will already be signalling to your body that it's prepared to shut it down for the night. You hinder this signalling if your room is too hot... which is why we toss and turn when it's too hot or when we have a fever.

I also keep a small box fan running during the night. Not only does it help keep the room cooler, but I love the white noise. I can't sleep in complete silence.

I’ve found ways to adapt in the winter like 6 thick blanket lol. Oof that sounds rough

Oh i heard smth about this, i never knew it was because i was subconsciously preparing to shut down :0

I also can't sleep in silence, i play podcasts from spotify.

6 blankets????? I have only 1 duvet and a blanket. At least you're not getting sick any time soon xD

Getting sick will probably be from working with kids

Oh no the lil virus nests 🤣🤣🤣

I read that a slightly colder room temperature helps encourage sleep, because our bodies naturally decrease in temperature at night for sleep, so I try to set mine down a few degrees more than I'd have during the day.

Cold for me, relatively (what may be cold for me may be warm for you).

 

[Moguri]

I'm shocked to see everyone wants to sleep in cold rooms, little Moguris would get sick right away like that!

 

[StirFriedPanda]

The colder the better! It's how I keep my heart frozen.

where you sleeping in a sauna for the last few days?

 

[ChiaraStar169]

in between lol

I'd rather stay warm than cold. Luckily, once I'm covered with a blanket, my body heat instantly turns me into a burrito.

Coldish for me is around 23 celsius.(74 F).
