Control your temperature
We covered this in the intro, but it deserves more attention. I actually go against the norms found in the study and like to sleep in a cool room. The feeling of a fan bothers my husband. So we used to sleep in what was to me a very warm room, and I’d wake up sweating. I would have also thrown the blankets off my body and onto my partner’s – the sensation of which woke him up. Plus, there’s the issue that sleeping in the same bed as someone else is naturally warmer than sleeping separately because of the combined body heat. Even if we’d stay to our separate sides of the bed, we still radiated heat onto each other. Now, we’re in separate rooms, and I can turn mine into the little igloo I want it to be.
