Whether you're in the midst of a heatwave or in the middle of winter, it's hard to fall asleep when the temperature isn't right. You can try turning the AC up or blasting a fan straight at your face, but trying to sleep with sweaty sheets is near impossible. Conversely, if your toes are frozen and no number of blankets can stop you from shivering, it's unlikely you're going to get a great night's sleep.
So what's the best temperature for sleep? It's cooler than you might think. There's a science behind how the temperature of our bedrooms can promote healthy sleep hygiene, and being at your best temperature not only helps you wind down well but also allows your body to rest and recover.
