How to Beat the Heat and Get a Good Night’s Sleep this Summer

Beating the heat in summer for a good night’s sleep is an eternal battle. If you don’t manage to get it right, you can end up having a horrible sleep day after day. It can be torture trying to sleep when it’s stinking hot.


If you’re lucky enough to have a quality air conditioner installed for you, then you’re good to go. But if you don’t have one, these tips should help you get a good night’s sleep this summer.


Seven Tips To Get A Good Night’s Sleep


1.Adjust your nighttime wardrobe

The hotter it gets, the fewer clothes you want to wear. And there is no better time to do that than when it comes to sleeping. Get comfortable with loose pyjamas or get into your birthday suit, so you’re relaxed while you’re asleep. 


2. Lite sheets

The thicker your sheets, the warmer you’re going to be. That is why it is recommended that you look towards breathable fabrics, such as cotton or linen. That can make your night cooler. Visit your mattress store in Calgary to find a sheet that works for you.

3. Unplug and go dark 

You will be surprised at how much heat is generated when it comes to lighting in your home. So in a bid to cool down your home, and bedroom, turn off all your electronics about 30 minutes before you go to sleep. It will help you keep cool, as well as not distract you. 


4. Push the hot air out of your bedroom 

A simple trick to actually keep your bedroom cool is by pushing out all the hot air that comes in. Place a fan at your window, so it pushes the hot air away from your mattress. This has more of positive affect than you know. 


5. Get a cooling mattress

The advancements in technology mean that you can get cooling mattresses that make sleeping a breeze in the summertime. These mattresses in Calgary are specifically designed to ensure that you experience a refreshing sleep, and not generate the heat that you would from regular mattresses. 


6. Cool your feet down

Your feet are a susceptible area which contains pulse points that make you feel hot or cold. It’s why you wake up in the middle of the night in winter with freezing feet, and while you feel warmer when in summer when wearing socks. Cooldown your feet by dipping them in cold water before you sleep. It might make your Calgary mattress wet, but it won’t bother you when you’re dead asleep. 


7. Stay hydrated

Sometimes it is not about temperature, but rather your body itself. If you’re always sweating, it means you’re getting dehydrated. So make sure that you load up on water before bed. It will make a massive difference to your sleep.
