How to make a bedroom better to sleep in

Short answer: Cool, dark and dry. Those three things matter more than bedding and nightwear combined, but the textiles can make a warm night more bearable.

Temperature first

Most people sleep best between seventeen and nineteen degrees. If the room is warmer, no bedding can make up for it.

The bedding next

You have more bedding against your skin than nightwear. A set that can release moisture does the most of the textiles. See bamboo bedding.

The nightwear last

A loose cut in a fabric that moves moisture removes the last reasons to wake up. See bamboo nightwear for women and bamboo nightwear for men.

Air the room in the morning

Leave the bed open for an hour in the morning, and the mattress dries out after the night moisture. That also keeps dust mites down, because they thrive in moisture.

Wash in rhythm

Bedding every two weeks, nightwear once or twice a week. See washing and care.
