Answer 1

Because blanket provides a kind of safety and the leg controls the temperature, so you feel safe and comfortable.

Blankets are warm, soft, cover(“protect”) you. By being under a blanket you feel safety, comfort. And it separates you from the outside world, making it easier to fall asleep. But despite all the positive effects of being under a blanket, temperature can’t be controlled.

Answer 2

3 main heat dump locations on your body, your palms, your upper cheeks and forehead, and your bottoms of your feet. Combine that with venting an already hot and contained area and you get immediate relief.
