How to sleep cool in summer?

Every summer, the weather in most places becomes very hot, and it is still very hot and humid even at night. Therefore, many people often cannot sleep because of the hot weather, and then they will feel listless when they wake up the next day. This will definitely have a great impact over time. However, you don’t have to worry too much. There are many ways to solve this problem now, such as the following measures, which are simple and effective.

How to sleep cool in summer?

1. Sleep on a cool mattress. First, foam mattresses and foam mattress topper are very insulating materials. They have an extraordinary ability to retain heat. If you have a foam mattress or sponge mattress, including a memory foam mattress, replace it in the summer and choose a regular mattress or a cotton quilt mattress.

2. Sleep on top of the sheets. Even cotton sheets provide a layer of insulation. On really hot nights, just sleep on one sheet. Some people also need some time to adjust to sleeping without a blanket or comforter. Because covering yourself with a quilt causes your body heat to rise up instead of being trapped between the sheets and quilt.

3. A cool pillow. The recommendation for pillows is: cool, cooling pillows. In fact, there is a lot of debate about cooling pillows, but the suggestion of this pillow with cooling function seems to be more effective. Such a pillow can quickly cool the head and help you fall asleep quickly.

4. Try sleeping in a hammock. This may sound strange, but sleeping in a hammock is indeed cooler than sleeping in bed. Why is this? Because air can flow through the bottom of the hammock, and the hammock does not have a mattress that will absorb heat. The large Mayan style hammock is currently the most comfortable and safe hammock.

5. Keep the room well ventilated. If there is no air conditioning, at least there should be a fan. If one fan blows toward the outside of one window and another fan blows toward the inside of another window opposite the window, the air will flow smoothly in the room. Opinions vary as to whether this method actually removes hot air from the room. Pointing a fan out the window probably won't do much. But you need to allow air convection in the room to create a cool breeze.

6. It’s better to buy an air conditioner. When you can buy pure cotton sheets, two fans, a new mattress and pillows with cooling functions, you might as well invest in an air conditioner for the bedroom. It doesn't mean you have to buy an imported luxury air conditioner. Just buy a small, Energy Star-certified air conditioner.

7. If the room is large, it will be cooler if you use air conditioning and a fan together. Because fans can promote circulation in a closed air-conditioned room, allowing cold air to quickly reach every corner of the room. However, it is best not to point the fan towards the air conditioner, and the wind direction cannot be fixed, otherwise the effect will be greatly reduced.
