Sleep Products for the warmer months

#summer #warm weather #sleep products

As the British summertime is well and truly underway, you’re probably beginning to struggle in the heat. This may be due to the humidity or an ill-equipped bedroom environment. You may be wondering how to make your nights more comfortable and cool.

We’ve compiled this list of cooling sleep products for the best summer sleep. These products are designed to help regulate your body temperature and combat uncomfortable and hot summer nights. 

Emma 4-Season Duvet

In order to achieve the optimal temperature when you sleep, you’ll want to consider choosing a lower tog duvet. Our Emma 4-Season Duvet is the perfect combination of comfort and temperature regulation. With a lower tog summer layer and a higher tog winter layer, this duvet is fully customisable.

The fabric of this duvet is 100% cotton and sustainable, making it environmentally friendly. Its thermoregulating core makes it the perfect choice for both hot and cold sleepers. 

Emma Cloud Duvet

Another perfect summer duvet, this one is named for its lightweight and cloud-like feel. With a tog of 6.7, it is the perfect all-year-round duvet. It’s also temperature-regulating, making it the best choice for the warmer months of the year. The Emma Cloud Duvet is made from breathable and lightweight fabric, and is the perfect nighttime accessory. 

No longer must we sleep without a duvet or with the window open when the temperature rises. Now, you can sleep as normal with the assurance that you’ll remain cool and comfortable all night long. 

Emma Hug Weighted Blanket 

Among the best weighted blankets for summer, we find this one. For all-night comfort that feels like being hugged, the Emma Hug Weighted Blanket is perfect. Weighted blankets are known for their sleep-inducing and stress and anxiety-relieving properties, based on a study by Academic.oup. The bamboo covering of this blanket makes it cool and breathable. Who said that blankets can only keep you warm? 

Weighted blankets are often the choice for many people in the wintertime. But with our weighted blanket, you can experience the same comfort without increasing your body temperature. 

Emma Mattress Protector

If you’re wondering how you can maximise your comfort, the Emma Mattress Protector is the perfect addition. Again made from breathable and comfortable fabric, this mattress protector is the ultimate sleep inducer. 

What’s more, it protects you from allergens, which are usually rife during the warmer months. This product, combined with the 4-Season Duvet, will give you the simulation of floating on a cooling cloud. 

Other ways to stay cool during warmer months

Sleep products are arguably the most effective way to stay cool. But, we’d recommend altering your bedroom environment to maximise comfort. Here are some things you can do to ensure you receive the optimal quality sleep, regardless of the temperature:

Wear cotton clothing

If your go-to pyjamas are made of synthetic materials or are quite restrictive, try opting for cotton based pyjamas instead. Cotton is lightweight and breathable, allowing for better airflow. Alternatively, try wearing fewer clothes at night if you’re really struggling with the heat. 

Keep your curtains closed

We’d recommend keeping your bedroom curtains closed to minimise the amount of light that enters your room. This could help keep your bedroom cooler. Additionally, you could leave your window and bedroom door open to allow the free flow of air through your room.

Use a fan

If you don’t want to open your window, try using a fan to help circulate the air in your room. Switching a fan on for a few hours before bed can help the human bodies thermal regulation system work easier and increase ventilation. Although fans don't cool the air, they can help your body regulate temperature better which is positive!

Combined with the Emma Sleep products, these methods will ensure you combat the heat in the most efficient way.

The best anti-allergy sleep products

For those who suffer from allergies, getting a consistently good night’s sleep can be a challenge. Allergens in the bedroom can trigger symptoms such as sneezing, itching, or a blocked nose. This can make it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep during the night.  As the pollen count increases throughout the year, so will allergies and reactions. During Spring and Summer, many people will begin to experience symptoms of hayfever and will want to tackle the issues of allergies impacting sleep.
