I never put much thought into choosing bedding. Typically I’d pick my bed sheets based on price and color, never bothering to check things like thread count or material composition. That is, until I started waking up at 3 a.m. feeling stuffy, sweaty, and overheated.
With the arrival of September, you’re probably noticing that the high temperatures seen across the USthis summer are starting to drop, and the days are gradually getting a little shorter. But as fall settles in you may also notice changes to your sleep, as with cooler weather and less sunlight can also come sleep problems.
The end of summer means back to school, back to routine and back to reality. Your stress levels are rising and you can’t remember the last time you clocked up anything close to 8 hours sleep. No wonder you’re tired.
If you’re anything like me, you need complete darkness and silence to sleep, blocking light and noise with eye masks and ear plugs. I couldn’t think of anything worse than falling asleep in front of a TV emitting sounds and bright moving pictures.
