Mother Earth has a transition thing going on right now, and it may be affecting your good sleep.

Yep, it’s springtime. Re-birth. Day after day of weather extremes. Night after night of heat-on, heat-off, windows left open then closed tight, covers on, covers off. Perhaps the pajamas need to come off when laying your head to rest, only to need them in the wee hours of the morning when the outside temperature dips 30 degrees.

Not only that, you are probably enjoying spring’s days, too—getting out there, riding bikes, doing yard work, dusting the cobwebs off your fishing pole or hiking gear. Working up a sweat? For the first time since last fall?

It’s all about temperature, folks. And it’s a good time to pay attention to what your ideal temperature for a good night’s rest is, since Mother Nature is giving you so many options.
