why do we search for the cold spot on the pillow when we sleep?


Question:


Answers:
i believe that our heads are the hottest part of our body and if our heads become to hot our body sends us a message that we are over heating. so common sense tells us to cool down.

Other Answers:
i don't have any scientific theory or proof of why we do, i just know for some reason it's comforting finding that cold spot or the cold side if the pillow.

that's a very good question.and here I thought it was just me..hehe
Why indeed.
It feels comforting, refreshing and has a cooling effect.

Last I checked was for a wet spot.
Just turn the pillow around..

My hair is usually wet when i go to sleep, i find it easier when it is. This is becuase where i live its very hot, and we have to turn off A.C. to save money so its hard to sleep without taking a cold shower prior.

cause it is more comfortable especially in the summer time i do it

So it's not just me?!

Being too hot wakes me up. I turn the pillow around.

Just like Antifreeze keeps your car engine cool, so cold spots on pillows keep our heads from overheating.
