1. Create a consistent bedtime routine

Creating a consistent bedtime routine can be helpful. As an example, avoid caffeine, screens, etc. for 1 hour before bed. Brush your teeth at the same time every night. Get into bed at the same time every night. Read in bed for 30 minutes. Consistency pays off in the long run.

2. Keep cold water close by

If you wake up sweating in the middle of the night, have a sip of cold water. Keeping cold water on your nightstand (or next to your bed) will come in handy when waking up. This will keep you hydrated and will provide some relief.

3. Turn down the thermostat

Turn down the thermostat at night. Creating a cool environment for yourself is very important, as it's proven that our bodies need to be a certain temperature in order to fall asleep. Keeping a fan running in your room will help circulate air and keep you cooler. 

4. Embrace your age

As you age, your body changes. You may not sleep as well as you used to, and that's okay. As you age you lose melatonin so may not require as much sleep as you used to. Adjusting your routine (e.g. going to bed later) may assist with waking at the correct time.

5. Invest in a lightweight comforter instead of heavy

Heavy comforters will increase your night sweats and hot flashes. Sleep with a cool / thin comforter that releases your night sweats rather than trapping them. Sleeping with cotton sheets will also help in the moisture wicking process. If you have a partner that likes it hot while you like it cool, consider using a dual sided duvet, such as the Twovet Comforter.

Did you know that over 80% of women over 50 suffer from night sweats?

"For some women, night sweats are highly disruptive to sleep. They may have to get up in the middle of the night to change their clothing or bedding," says Dr. Shives (UC San Diego Department of Medicine).

We get it, we've been there!

That's why we created a dual-sided comforter designed specifically for women who find themselves overheating at night - while their partner stays comfortable.  

With our revolutionary Twovet Comforter, there is no need to get out of bed to add or remove layers, no arguing over the thermostat - just a full night's of rest.

The cool (thin) side will release the steam you produce at night with its unique moisture wicking technology, and will keep you comfortable, while keeping your partner warm at the same time.
