Why to sleep naked

The moment of lying down has something special, unique and every night unrepeatable. It should be experienced as a moment full of stillness, predisposition to peace and naturalness. If you decide to sleep naked – whether as a couple or single – you have several benefits. In this first part of the article we are going to discover. what the benefits are that are experienced first and foremost at the individual level.

Increased security

You wake up naked/and go to the mirror, feel that you have been through a whole night with yourself/and and the sensory enrichment that comes with it. If living conditions permit, you can continue to wander around the house remaining naked and feeling comfortable. This allows you to feel a sense of deep positive dominance toward your physical body, the space around you.

Contact with the inner world

Standing in one’s own nakedness one also experiences the inner emotional world well. It is almost a natural equation: if we are comfortable with our body, without defenses, without high resistance, that is when the inner world also opens up to our consciousness. By being in one’s bed, perhaps after an herbal tea, with a lit candle, a good book, slowly we drop into the intimate dimension of ourselves/themselves. We spend a lot of time with our clothes on, and sleeping naked allows us to balance the real sensations.

Strong immune defenses

Sleeping naked puts us in contact with the our deep thermoregulation, the healthy, true, authentic one. It strengthens us internally and boosts our immune defenses. The body faces the night without clothing and remains only in contact with something that covers it appropriately with respect to the season one is facing. By sleeping nude, one achieves the right internal temperature that lowers cortisol levels, also referred to as the stress hormone. When cortisol does not spike high, nervous hunger and sleep disturbances are also reduced, lipogenesis (more fat is burned) is promoted, and bones gain in strength and density.

Less embarrassment

It sounds very trivial, but when we sleep alone/naked, we reach a level of familiar approach with our bodies that we find ourselves directly when we make love to other people. In other words, it increases the life drive anddecreases the discomfort of being naked/and. If we lower the general level of discomfort when sharing the intimate sphere with a person, here we open ourselves to the desire to know that same person in a deep, gentle and true way. There are no filters of embarrassment toward ourselves/and thus we open ourselves to the world of emotions, skin and spirit that inhabits the person in front of us.

Benefits for the couple

The star hormone when couples sleep together naked is released from the brain, and it is theoxytocin. Also called “the love hormone,” oxytocin produces a state of total psychophysical well-being and goes a long way toward boosting self-confidence in oneself/others. Sleeping in the nude also raises desire upon waking or going to bed. Sleeping naked stimulates cuddling and the skin becomes like a stable bridge between you and the other person. Sleeping undressed allows you to reach the optimal climatic condition for inducing sleep sooner and allows you to fall asleep faster; a resting couple corresponds to a couple that quarrels less, lives less in constant stress, and knows how to disconnect completely for experience the moment of rest well.

By sleeping together naked, we lose weight, help our skin and hair shine, and maintain deep contact on an emotional level. The couple becomes stable, we recognize each other sooner and become familiar with each other’s smell, and we also become more accepting of our own and each other’s flaws. In addition, if you want to play with eros, the choice of sleeping naked/and could be the frequent one, occasionally interspersed with moments when you choose special, refined, elegant underwear to surprise and conquer further. It increases trust, sexual desire and overall understanding. It also predisposes to massage: many couples choose to sleep in the nude to often initiate mutual massage sessions with oils of various kinds, including essential oils, perhaps combined with a carrier oil such as almond or coconut.

Sleeping together burns many calories and thus slims down, giving many benefits to the overall metabolism as well. It improves overall mood, confidence, willingness to play and open up. Being in bed naked also opens us up to talk, to share, one is stripped in all senses even of many armors or barriers. Couples who sleep in the nude usually indulge in their choice of bedding, including the colors of the sheets, perfumes, and laundry soap. Sleeping without pajamas or other clothing also reduces the risk of infection or irritation of various kinds; it also decreases the possible proliferation of bacteria and fungi.
