  • Sleeping during a heatwave
  • September 30, 2023 by


    When the night does not cool down, the body sleeps differently. That asks for some adjustment.


    During the day

    By day, keep windows and curtains closed as long as it is warmer outside than in. Do not exercise just before bed. Drink enough water. Eat light in the evening, digesting heavy meals produces extra warmth.


    Just before bed

    Just before bed, take a lukewarm shower. Not cold, a cold shower actually makes the body produce more heat. It is counterproductive.


    In bed

    Sleep as low as possible, for warmth rises. Sleep naked, or in thin cotton pyjamas.


    The right down

    Choose a summer down, a lighter 100% goose down filling that regulates warmth and moisture especially well. Cotton bedding lets the skin breathe, synthetic does not.


    Cooling down

    Want to cool off? Run lukewarm water over your wrists, arms and ankles. These are the parts of the body that warm up fastest.
