In life, we have to wear clothes pretty much everywhere, so why wear them in the comfort of our homes while we sleep?<\/p>\n
It might seem weird at first to go to bed wearing nothing at all, but sleeping without the confines of clothing actually comes with major health benefits.<\/p>\n
According to a sleep survey<\/a>, only 8 percent of Americans go to sleep baring it all, but more people might jump on the bandwagon after hearing about the amazing advantages of sleeping naked.<\/p>\n While pajamas might seem comfy and cozy, they can pose as a real hindrance while you sleep. First of all, PJ\u2019s plus a comforter and blankets can increase your body temperature, making it difficult to fall and stay asleep. The body requires a cool environment<\/a> in order to fall into a deep sleep, but with all that clothing on, your body might not even recognize that it\u2019s time to go to sleep.<\/p>\n The skin will naturally cool off along with the rest of the body when you hit the sack for the night, but wearing pajamas just hinders the body from doing what it needs to in order to help you drift off into sleep.<\/p>\n Since we wear clothes all the time in our modern society, we never really give our bodies a chance to \u201cair out,\u201d so to speak. Especially for women, wearing underwear while you sleep traps bacteria and yeast<\/a>, which can lead to an overgrowth eventually. When people sleep naked, they actually lower the risk of yeast infections, and simply allow the body to air itself out.<\/p>\n Plus, it just feels good to allow the cool air to touch your skin without anything getting in the way.<\/p>\n Everyone knows cuddling and getting physically close to someone increases your health in many ways, but sleeping naked can take things to a whole new level. Feeling that skin-to-skin contact with your partner will help you de-stress even more, lowering your blood pressure and making you more relaxed. Not to mention, sleeping naked next to someone will make you happier, and therefore, healthier.<\/p>\nHere are 5 health benefits of choosing to sleep naked:<\/h1>\n
