Keep socks optional—cool feet help many people

Feet run warm for a lot of people, and trapped heat under socks and heavy covers can keep you tossing. Keep socks optional: try bare feet under a light sheet, or kick covers off the foot of the bed so heat can leave. Some sleepers prefer thin breathable socks; others sleep cooler with feet free—treat it as a personal dial, not a rule. If your feet get icy and that wakes you, a light pair is fine. If you wake sweaty from the ankles down, go bare. Comfort beats dogma. Cooler extremities often make the whole bed feel less like a heat trap.
