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.
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.

Keeps the gnats away from your eyes, too!
And apparently you are also suppose to sleep without a sheet or blanket as well.
“Can I get a witness?”
I will testify.
Born and raised here. I’ll stay and fight.
In my back yard right now my garden appears to be on steroids.
Also with Meyer lemon, Washington Navel, Peach, Plum and Olive trees. Harvested artichokes a month ago.
Only in CA.
Some people are better at it than others. It’s not fair.
That is the reason I always wear something. You never know when you are going to have to suddenly take action for an unexpected event in the middle of the night.
>>>Blow it off and go to sleep<<<
Is she okay with that?
Every night?
Lucky guy.
Where do they say to wear the sock(s)?
I’ve always worn socks when I sleep. Otherwise my feet get chilled, and I don’t sleep
A couple of ladies at my work were having a similar discussion, but they were speaking Spanish so they thought it was private.
They didn’t realize our 19 year old good Catholic boy intern was fluent in Spanish until his face turned beet red!
It was an article linked below in the section where you can't quite tell whether they are articles or ads: If You Don't Sleep with Socks On, Here's Why You Should Start Tonight
I just thought it was funny having the sleep naked article linked to a sleep with your socks on article.
Can I compromise by wearing one sock... higher up. :-).
Pretty sure you don’t want to risk Athlete’s Foot higher up.
Your little lady I’m certain would agree. ;-)
A certified sleep coach? Good God...where do I apply???
Person must not have excessive parts that when you turn over pull or tear muscles, I’m still sore from the last tear. And I’m not fat, over gifted by God.
And for some reason, that vocabulary is always among the first words you learn when studying any foreign language, right?
I’m afraid there will be an emergency and I won’t be able to find my underwear and have to run outside naked.....
Afraid for my neighbors, that is....
;)
Probably depends on how much extracurricular studying you do. In the US, if you speak Spanish at all, it’s not going to be hard for you to learn every dirty word in the book, just strike up a conversation with your local vato.
My grandson, whose diapers I have changed from day 1, screams like a banshee and dives for cover if I walk in the bathroom when he’s in the shower. Five minutes later, he’s parading around like Lady Godiva or somebody.
The title is a good enough reason for me ;)
