What is the ideal sleeping temperature?

The best temperature for sleep can vary by individual with most adults finding their perfect temp between 60 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. In addition to the thermostat setting, consider how your bedding, pajamas, sunlight coming into the bedroom or a draft might be impacting whether you’re waking up too warm, clutching the blankets or just right.
