Beat the Heat. Cooling Down Your Sleep Environment

Summer nights can be a challenge when it comes to getting a restful night’s sleep due to the warmth and humidity. However, creating a cool and comfortable sleep environment is key to beating the heat and ensuring quality rest. At Owl and Lark, we’ve put together a list of effective techniques to help you stay cool and sleep better. From selecting the right bedding to using cooling accessories, here are our top tips for maintaining a refreshing sleep environment during the hottest months.

Techniques for Cooling Down Your Sleep Environment

1. Opt for Breathable Bedding:

• Lightweight Sheets: Choose our breathable, lightweight bed sheets made from natural materials like silk to enhance airflow and keep you cool throughout the night.
• Hypoallergenic Bedding: Our hypoallergenic sheets not only reduce allergens but also promote better airflow, enhancing your sleep quality.

2. Invest in Cooling Accessories:

• Weighted Blanket: Our Owl and Lark weighted blanket is designed with breathable fabric to provide calming pressure while keeping you cool. It’s perfect for those warm summer nights when you need comfort without the extra heat.
• Eye Mask: The Owl and Lark eye mask blocks out light and provides a soothing, cooling effect, helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.

3. Create Airflow:

• Fans and Air Conditioning: Use fans or air conditioning in conjunction with our cooling products to enhance the overall coolness of your sleep environment.

4. Cool Down Before Bed:

• Cool Shower: Take a cool shower or bath before bed to lower your body temperature. Pair this with our cooling bedding for the best results.
• Cold Compress: Use a cold compress on pulse points like your wrists and neck to quickly cool down before getting into bed. Feeling a cool temperature before going to sleep can help the falling asleep process. 

5. Adjust Your Sleepwear:

• Lightweight Pyjamas: Wear loose-fitting, lightweight pyjamas made of breathable fabric to stay comfortable throughout the night. Pair these with our cooling sheets for an optimal sleep experience.

By implementing these techniques, you can transform your sleep environment into a cool, serene oasis even on the warmest summer nights. Remember, the right bedding and accessories can make a significant difference in your comfort and sleep quality.
