Going to bed in the buff has more perks than you might think. These research-backed benefits will have you ditching the dowdy flannels and sleeping naked tonight.

Sleeping naked could improve your sleep quality

People may sleep better in cooler temps than warmer ones. Why? Your natural body temperature naturally declines as you sleep, says Christine Hansen, certified sleep coach, member of the National Sleep Foundation, and founder of Sleep Like a Boss. As your body temperature declines, your cortisol levels go down and your melatonin levels go up. “That’s why when it’s too hot, you feel nervous and jumpy and can’t sleep,” Hansen says. Because wearing PJs or sleeping under heavy covers can disrupt your body’s natural cool-down, it can, in turn, disrupt the quality of your sleep. However, you don’t want to be too cold either: If you’re so cold that you’re shivering, you’re probably not sleeping deeply. While there’s no one perfect temperature for good shut-eye, the National Sleep Foundation recommends setting your thermostat between 60 and 67 degrees—but if you’re sleeping nude and waking up shivering, feel free to turn it up. That cooler sleeping temperature offers other nice benefits, as well.

telling you to wear socks while you sleep.

Never. Ever.

[crusty old prospector]

Me too. I always figure we will have a tornado or the house will catch on fire.

Sleeping in the buff would be LESS expensive in FL in summer, not more.

I haven't owned a pair of pyjamas or slept in underwear since I was a teenager.

I also take a shower after every defecation.

I am always squeaky clean, hygienic, and ready for love!

[McGruff]

Not if you have incontinence issues never mind tornadoes, eathquakes,...

[Gamecock]

As long as they don't go outside who cares?

[jcon40]

Reminds me of the punch line....

Sure keeps the flies off my watermelon.

...discussing the benefits of airing out the lady parts.

So...just discussing?

[leaning conservative]

It feels great! And my beloved father always slept in the buff.

[NellieMae]

I’ve had quite a few bad dreams about that very thing, except in my case, it’s a tornado.

[Craftmore]

easy access?

[Vigilanteman]

Those sound like good habits, although you can skip the shower if you have one of those water squirting toilet seats.

My oldest grandson was an early potty trainer, learning to walk and to go about the same time because he HATED dirty diapers. He'd take off everything from the waist down before doing #2, sometimes even for a #1.

His parents taught him to be wary of strangers so, if nature called outside the home, he'd pull me into the restroom and make me wait outside the stall door. He loves Grandpa, but draws a clear line with privacy.

[NellieMae]

That is my mindset as well!! LOL! I’m pretty isolated where I live though. I used to keep an emergency bag of clothes in my basement,just in case. I probably need to clean out some drawers and update that bag.

No wonder Pres. Trump said what he did, when rumored to have been confronted by an irate leftist, enumerating myriad faults, and ending with, “How do you SLEEP at night?!” To which POTUS reportedly replied, “Naked; with a Super Model!” Could that be why he’s so healthy?

POTUS reportedly replied, “Naked; with a Super Model!” Could that be why he’s so healthy?

It explains why he doesn't get much sleep.

I walked in on a very uncomfortable employee lounge conversation where several women were discussing the benefits of airing out the lady parts.

It's a reason why women wore skirts and dresses. Underwear optional.

Because wearing PJs or sleeping under heavy covers can disrupt your body’s natural cool-down, it can, in turn, disrupt the quality of your sleep.

That's THEIR opinion.

[LRoggy]

Place a rotating fan next to the bed.

[Afterguard]

Not at 67 degrees, it’s not. Lol.
