Bien dormir pendant l’été : voici nos conseils - Label Naturel

Sleeping well during the summer is what worries us when the heat arrives. It's difficult to tolerate the heat during the day, but when night falls, it becomes difficult to fall asleep. Sleeping with damp sheets, with a fan, removing your duvet... But what should you do? Discover our tips for sleep well even during the summer!

Bring in the freshness

If you are an early riser you will be able to enjoy the cool morning temperatures, but not only that! Once you get up, remember to ventilate your entire house. So open the windows and let in the freshness of the morning. However, once the sun starts to heat up, it's time to close everything down! Shutters, blinds, curtains, windows, everything must be closed to avoid letting in heat. If the temperatures drop again before going to bed, do not hesitate to open everything and let a draft pass through during the night to cool you down.

Opt for a summer duvet: light and breathable

Who says heat, says want of lightness to sleep well during the summer! So when the sunny days arrive and the hot weather arrives, summer duvets are welcome. These adapt directly to your environment and refresh you by ensuring good air circulation. They also automatically regulate the temperature thanks to their breathable shell. When temperatures are high we all tend to sweat. They will then allow the evacuation of humidity thanks to their thermal properties. But that's not all! To spend healthy and cool nights, summer duvets provide you with extreme lightness. You will then be able to move freely without having the feeling of being weighed down or having a weight on you. Discover our summer duvets in cotton, silk or down, to spend cool summer nights.

Sleep with natural materials

Natural materials such as cotton, linen or even silk allow you to sleep better, especially when it is hot. These materials, with thermoregulatory properties, allow you to feel freshness even during periods of extreme heat.

Hydrate yourself, even at night

When it is hot, it is important to keep your body heat at 37°. And this obviously involves hydration. We tend to sweat more when it's hot, so we need to make sure we stay hydrated throughout the day and also at night. To avoid getting up several times and disrupting your sleep, have a bottle of water nearby to make it easier to drink and sleep better during the summer.

Don't make heat your enemy! Follow our advice and be sure that your nights will be cool. Also, don't hesitate to dress in light pajamas and eat a light dinner before bed to keep your body cool.

FAQs

What is the ideal bedroom temperature in summer?
Most experts recommend a room around 18°C ​​(between 16°C and 19°C). Close shutters and curtains during the day to limit heat gain, then ventilate early in the morning and late in the evening when the air is cooler.
Cold or lukewarm shower before bed?
Prefer a lukewarm shower: it helps the body to slowly lower its temperature. Avoid ice water which stimulates circulation and can delay falling asleep.
Which bed textiles should you choose when it’s hot?
Opt for breathable natural fibers: linen, cotton percale or cotton gauze, and lightweight silk. They promote moisture wicking and regulate temperature better than synthetic materials.
Fan or air conditioning: which to choose for the night?
The fan improves air circulation if you create a current (windows open at night). Avoid direct airflow on the body. If you use air conditioning, set it moderately (24–26°C) to avoid thermal shock.
How to hydrate without increasing the number of nighttime awakenings?
Hydrate in small sips throughout the day and keep a bottle of water near the bed. Limit alcohol and caffeine in the evening, favor a light dinner and foods rich in water (fruits, vegetables) earlier in the evening.
Which duvet to choose for summer?
Choose a light, breathable and temperature-regulating summer duvet (silk, light down, cotton or natural fibers). A low weight provides the necessary lightness while wicking away moisture.
