You’ve probably done it without thinking—kicking one foot out from under the blanket to cool down at night. While it may feel like a simple comfort habit, science suggests it can actually help your body fall asleep faster. As bedtime approaches, your body naturally prepares for sleep by lowering its core temperature. This cooling process is a key part of your circadian rhythm and helps trigger the release of melatonin, the hormone that promotes sleep. To speed this up, your body sends warm blood away from the core and toward the skin—especially the hands and feet.
