In winter, we tend to cover up more than necessary and turn the heating dial before falling asleep. Find out what temperature is optimal for a good night’s sleep.
We will never repeat how badlyt sleep is precious. Whether it is for your mental and physical health or the quality of your skin or the proper functioning of your digestive and immune system, Sleeping well is essential to prolonging your life expectancy. This is the reason why you must gather optimal conditions for a restful night’s sleep. First, it is advisable to avoid screens before going to bed and to be clean so as not to sweat. Certain materials for pajamas or sheets should be avoided, such as “pilou-pilou” fabric, which does not allow your body temperature to be regulated and will make you sweat.
It is normal to cover up more or add bed covers at the level of the feet during the winter. Nonetheless, it is not not at all recommended to increase the temperature of your heating before you fall asleep. In addition to not being economical and ecological, a room that is overheated at night is not recommended for the quality of your sleep.

The perfect temperature for a peaceful night’s sleep
The perfect temperature to allow your body to rest properly is 19°C. No more no less. As recommended by the National Institute of Sleep and Alertness, the thermometer should not exceed this temperature for optimal sleep. So what if you can’t sleep a wink in this temperature? If a lack of iron, diabetes or blood circulation problems can cause a feeling of cold at night, it is also possible that you are simply chilly. In this case, it is recommended to opt for a winter quilt in this period, thicker and warmer. You can also wear long socks, as long as they are cotton. Finally, it is also possible to invest in a hot water bottle, which you place on the part that is struggling the most to warm up, before you plunge into the arms of Morpheus.
