Marilyn Monroe *my fav* once revealed that she wears Chanel No. 5 to bed and nothing more. Gotta love that Marilyn. As unusual as that might seem to some, it’s actually a lot more common than you think. A recent survey estimated that about a third of U.S. women also sleep in the buff. That’s a lot of nakey people! But hey, this isn’t just geared towards women. Sleeping in the nude is beneficial for everyone. So there, Marilyn wasn’t a weirdo…she was actually onto something.
::6 Reasons Why Sleeping Naked is Really Good for You::
1. No More Pajamas
YES! No more spending tons of money on pjs! Like seriously, really cute pajama sets can easily be $50-60. Who wants to spend that type of money just to get under the covers, turn off the light, and have no one care what you look like anyway?!
2. Better Sleep Quality
During the night your body temperature drops to about 96.8 degrees. By piling on sweatshirts and PJs suddenly, your body is forced to increase its efforts to regulate your temperature, thus increasing the risk for poor and interrupted sleep.*booooooo*
Simply being naked under a duvet cover is enough to keep you warm without disturbing your body’s natural functions. It also helps facilitate blood flow and therefore promotes sound sleep.
Sounds great to me…sign me up!
3. Its Good for Your Figure!
You heard me right! Sleeping nakey is actually good for that body! When your body temperature drops naturally, you tend to burn more calories, especially if the room you’re sleeping in is over 60 degrees. Having the ideal temperature coupled with blood flow that’s not hindered by clothing gives your body the best conditions to get rid of those excess cals. *Fat be gone!* A refreshing night’s rest will help you push through your day without the urge to snack.
But before you get too carried away thinking sleeping nude will just melt away all those donuts and lattes (damn, I knew there was a catch), while you dream of being in paradise with a hot dude, we’re gonna have to burst your bubble. You still gotta eat right and head to the gym for that one. *womp, womp, wooommppp*
4. Fights off certain Female Infections
*Dun dun dun daaaaa* something that fights off infections?! Yes, sleeping nude can do this. Your va-jay-jay has a climate similar to a tropical rainforest, it can be a breeding ground for bacteria and yeast. *gross* By saying “Adios” to underwear and pajamas, you allow your va-jay the much needed aeration it requires to stay dry and healthy. And, as we all know, a healthy va-jay is a happy one.
5. Less Laundry to be Done
I know Sheldon, laundry sucks and that’s exactly how I look when doing it. I don’t know about you, but less laundry is definitely something that will improve my health. My happiness = a healthier me and less laundry is the main factor in achieving said happiness. *There was no scientific research behind this point, but I think it sounds damn good*
6. Wonderful for Couples…
Go Demi! So this one is pretty self explanatory right?! If not, you probably should not be viewing my blog right now *bye bye kiddies* If you need further convincing, a survey has proven that couples who sleep naked are generally happier. The nudity makes the partners more sensitive to each other, therefore inviting more intimacy. *Ta-da* I may have just saved your marriage/relationship… You’re welcome 😉
There you have it. Six amazing reasons to start sleeping naked. Not going to lie, I started this whole nakey *yes I am putting a “y” at the end on purpose,let me live* while sleeping thing…and I have found it to be extremely comfortable. I feel GREAT!
Relax Adele, not that great. Buuuut, I usually toss and turn a lot, that has almost completely stopped. Some times, no matter how little clothing I had on, I would wake up hot…no longer! There is also something just so magical when your bare skin hits those nice clean sheets. *Ahhhhhh* So set yourself free! Let it all hang out! I hope you all try this out, I really think you’ll love me for it.
Sleep Tight!
