Femalefirst.co.uk shares advice given by the Sleep Council on how to get perfect night’s sleep during summer season.

- To keep the room cool during night, start from daytime by keeping curtains drawn.

- Use cotton sheets instead of blankets.

- Wear light cotton nightwear to absorb perspiration.

- Take bath with cold water before bedtime to lower your body temperature.

- Also drink cold water during evening and keep a bottle of water near your bed.

- Stay away from heavy meal, caffeine, alcohol as these can make you feel hot in the middle of the night due to dehydration or over-active digestion.
