(NAPSI)—The next time you find yourself kicking your leg out of the
side of your blankets to cool off or turning your pillow over because it’s
too hot—you won’t be alone. Some 50 million Americans are
affected by intermittent sleep problems, potentially created by bedding
choices, according to the National Sleep Foundation—but you don’t
have to be.
Not many people realize it, but surrounding yourself with breathable
fabrics while you sleep is essential for a restful night. Airflow
matters because it lets heat naturally dissipate away from your body and
helps keep your temperature regulated. Overheating can lead to a night
of tossing and turning, leaving you groggy the next day because you didn’t
recover properly the night before.
What To Do
So what’s the solution? It’s possible to get more out of each
day by enhancing your sleep environment. There are options that can cater to
your individual sleep position, body frame and temperature to help you
maximize recovery at night.
Consider these facts and tips for a better night’s sleep:
1. There are 24 vertebrae in your back, eight of which are supported by a
pillow and the rest by your mattress. Therefore, while you’re sleeping,
30 percent of your comfort comes from your pillow and 70 percent comes from
your mattress. This is why it’s important to have the right fit of
sleep equipment that supports your body’s needs.
2. Get personalized. It’s true that one size doesn’t fit all—especially
when it comes to your bedding. You might want to check out Bedgear, which offers a personalized Performance Sleep
System and a Pillow ID fitting process, used by professional sports teams
such as the Boston Celtics and Dallas Mavericks. The process is designed to
fit people with individualized products for the best sleep every night.
3. Spend the last hour before bed away from electronics. Taking some time
to relax and unwind calms your body and helps your brain transition more
easily into deep sleep. At the same time, you’re removing artificial
sources of the blue light found in electronic devices that activates your
brain to stay awake and can disrupt sleep.
Personalization, coupled with fabric technologies that are engineered to
promote airflow and assist with temperature regulation, can ensure that your
sleep environment is optimized for the best rest.
