A winter morning before the heating catches up

Short answer: One layer against the skin does the most in the first thirty minutes. The room is cold, the body has just woken, and the thermostat has not caught up yet.

Why the morning feels coldest

Body temperature is at its lowest just before you wake. At the same time the room is coolest after a night without heating. The two things arrive together.

What works immediately

A long sleeved layer against the skin and something on your feet before you do anything else. Bamboo viscose does not feel cold to put on, the way cotton can. See bamboo long sleeved t-shirts for men.

The practical trick

Put tomorrow's innermost layer in the bed by your feet in the evening. Then it is warm when you need it. See bamboo socks for women and bamboo loungewear for women.

Frequently asked questions

Half an hour to an hour with ordinary radiator heating.

Does getting up straight away help

Yes. Movement raises body temperature faster than anything else.

Why are the feet coldest

Because the blood withdraws toward the core when the body is cold.
