At Last! Rest for Hot Sleepers

Whether you are dealing with perimenopause or pregnancy hot flashes, global warming increasing the average nighttime temps in your area or are otherwise a hot sleeper – exhibit A, my teenage son who insists on sleeping, during all seasons, with the windows all open and a fan blowing on him (!) – being too hot at night can negatively impact the quality of your sleep. Luckily, I discovered Rest®. With their collection of Evercool sheets, pillowcases, comforters, PJs and pillows, a cool night of rest IS possible.

First, a quick science lesson… thermoregulation, your body’s process to maintain its core internal temperature, is a crucial factor to sleep quality. Your body’s core temperature naturally begins to drop in the evening which helps to signal to your body to prepare for sleep. A cool sleeping environment – including both the room itself and your bedding choice – can help make it easier for your body to fall and stay asleep.

So you can lower your thermostat – the National Sleep Foundation recommends keeping your room at 60 and 67 degrees Fahrenheit. You can sleep with windows open or turn on a fan. But an often overlooked change you can make is your bedding.

Rest bedding is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. Their Evercool sheets and comforters are actually cold to the touch. Not cool, cold. The material is smooth and silky and immediately begins helping your body cool down the moment you slip under the sheets.

Rest Evercool sheets and comforters rely on proprietary fibers and an innovative weaving construction to create an end result that is ultra-breathable and moisture-wicking, allowing heat to dissipate quickly from your body. The end result is an immediately cooling sensation as you get into bed, signaling to your body that it’s time for some zzzzs, plus continued cooling throughout the night, ensuring you stay cool and dry, all night long.

According to Rest , their products outperform fabrics like silk, bamboo and cotton, creating a sleeping environment that is cool, soft, smooth and OEKO-TEX® 100 certified.

I love myself a cold pillow and so I snagged the Evercool®+ Cooling pillowcases and let my son try out the Evercool®+ Cooling Starter Sheet Set and Evercool® Cooling Comforter. No joke – they have transformed his sleep. As someone who used to take hours to fall asleep each night, he now gets to sleep faster and stays asleep longer during the night with the Rest bedding. And the Rest pillowcase means no more pillow-flipping for me in the middle of the night!

If you’re looking for more reason to explore the Rest collection , you can check out all the awards Rest has won like the 2025 Health Sleep Award, 2025 Men’s Health Sleep Award and a three-time Good Housekeeping Bedding Award winner. They are also Drew Barrymore-approved!

Whatever resolutions you made this year – from working out more to eating healthier to decreasing your stress – there’s a good chance they are impacted by getting a good night’s sleep. And if being too hot is preventing you from getting the sleep you need, then Rest should be in your cart ASAP.

Rest comforters, sheet sets and pillowcases are all available on Amazon. Or you can shop Rest’s New Year’s sale which has products up to 40% off.  While supplies last, there are also free gifts with select purchase amounts! Rest products are also HSA/FSA-eligible. So what are you waiting for??
