Can't Sleep While Cuddling?

Fall in love with cuddling in bed
Sharing a bed is the ultimate intimacy and research suggests that sleeping close and cuddling increases oxytocin (the 'love' hormone) which helps to lower stress hormones, making you feel calmer and encourages feelings of safety and security – leading to less interrupted sleep.

How do you fall asleep while cuddling?

Sleeping cuddling positions can include the traditional spoon, a half spoon where one person lies on their back and the other person hugs them, a face-to-face cuddle with your arms and legs entwined, or even back-to-back with your backsides touching.

Is cuddling bad for sleep?

Oxytocin also naturally lowers stress levels, the enemy of sleep, so cuddling before or during the night can keep you feeling relaxed and sleeping soundly. Your immune system gets a boost.
