PSA: My try at a cold room hack left me shivering all night

I heard that a cold room could help you sleep better, so I decided to test it out. I set the thermostat too low and spent the whole night awake and freezing. What's the best way to cool a room for sleep without going overboard?

Cranking the AC down to 60 degrees is insane for sleep. I can't believe you lasted the whole night like that. Try aiming for around 67 degrees, that's the sweet spot for most people. Use a fan for airflow instead of freezing the whole room.

Totally agree with @derek_burns, I tried 60 once and woke up freezing.

My buddy tried 60 once, @derek_burns, woke up shivering in a jacket.
