Every winter, I seem like it has gotten colder than the year before. Perhaps it is due to the fact that every year, I age and my metabolism slows down. This year, I decided to find out how to remain warm in bed. My blankets are not any warmer and I didn't wish to change blankets so I decided to attempt other ways. Here is what I attempted and what seemed to work for me.

The only thing was that I didn't get to feel the softness of my down blanket against my body - something that I really delight in. I didn't feel as attractive going to bed, something that I like to feel as well, specifically with my husband sleeping next to me. Next, I attempted using these silk pajamas.

Heated blanket: Although I enjoy my blankets, I decided to add a heated blanket below them just for my body. The heated blanket worked too well. I was practically too hot and my other half and I hesitated of starting a fire in the middle of the night considering that the blanket needed to be plugged in. While this option bed heaters was great, I chose I would simply use it for times when I am resting on the couch and reading and require some extra heat. I'm keeping the blanket, but am not going to use it to go to sleep.

Of course, you don't have to purchase these socks and you can always simply wear any pair of cotton socks to bed, but these are made particularly to keep your feet warm all night. I really tried wearing these with my shorts and tee shirt and found that it made a huge distinction in how warm I felt. Of course wearing socks to bed felt a little foreign to me at first, however ultimately I got utilized to it.
