Since a very young
age, we are taught to sleep in pajamas and to think that nudity is unacceptable
even in sleep...but it feels so good to curl up in bed without any clothes on!
Good news: Bright
Side has gathered evidence that shows it’s not only enjoyable to sleep naked
but also good for your health. Here are 10 reasons to throw off your pajamas
tonight.
1) No insomnia
Doctors even
recommend sleeping naked to insomniacs.
2) Improved blood
circulation
Even the most
comfortable underwear worsens blood circulation and constricts parts of the
vascular system. This can result in venous lakes and varicose veins.
3) Confidence boost
If you feel confident
naked, you will feel confident clothed as well.
4) Better
relationship with your partner
Skin-to-skin contact
enhances oxytocin release and is beneficial to loving couples. If you both
sleep nude, you form a more sensual and trusting relationship.
5) Less stress
Sleeping naked at the
optimal temperature will help your body decrease its level of cortisol, the
stress hormone.
6) Increased weight
loss and muscle growth
Human growth hormone
(HGH) is responsible for muscle gain and might be involved in the fat-burning
process.
7) Brighter sexual life
Unsurprisingly,
couples that sleep with no clothes on are much more likely to make love
spontaneously than fans of pajamas.
8) Better skin and
hair
Quality sleep will
enable your body to produce melatonin and growth hormones more actively.
Sleeping in the nude will also be beneficial to your sebaceous glands since the
skin can breathe and doesn’t overheat.
9) Feeling more happy and free
Even if you’re not
used to going to bed unclothed, you can’t deny how good it feels: nothing
hinders your movements, cuts into your skin, or clings to your bedsheets
anymore.
10) Better sleep
Sleeping naked
enables your skin to cool off and saves you from overheating, so your sleep
becomes deeper and less fitful.
