đâĄđ´Bathing makes you sleepyđâĄđ´
A warm bath is your secret weapon for a great nightâs sleep!
Hey Overlookers, Helloooo
Ever wondered that Bathing makes you feel sleepy, But Hooowwww?
Letâs dive in,
When you sink into a warm bath, your body temperature rises slightly. After you step out, your body rapidly starts to cool down! And this cooling triggers a natural process in your brain called thermoregulation. Itâs like your body saying, âHey, time to wind down!â This sharp drop in core temperature is part of your bodyâs prep for sleep, mimicking what it naturally does in the evening as bedtime approachesâ.
Basically, your body has a natural process to trigger sleep and you artificially carry out that process by taking a bath and ultimately feel sleepy.
And thatâs not all! The warm water also increases blood flow to your hands and feet, which helps heat leave your body more efficiently. So, by the time youâre drying off, your body is already in âsleep mode.â Plus, the relaxation from the bath helps activate the Parasympathetic Nervous System (the part responsible for chilling out), lowering your heart rate and prepping you for a solid snoozeâ.
Still skeptical? Try it tonight.
Stay cozy,
Overlook
P.S. Science-backed, but still 100% cozy! Just donât fall asleep in the tub, okay? đ
