With all of the studies that have been published about sleeping, I cannot help but feel stress over a once peaceful activity!
The most recent of these studies evaluated sleep positions and their connection with quality of sleep, overall well-being and future health problems. The study broke sleepers into 3 categories; back sleepers, stomach sleepers and side sleepers. Here is what was concluded:
Effects of Position:
Back Sleepers - Inclined to snore and suffer from sleep apnea
Stomach Sleepers - Prone to wrinkles and neck pain
Side Sleepers - (Right Side) Induced acid reflux
Ways to Improve Sleep / Health:
Back Sleepers - Place a pillow under knees and head
Stomach Sleepers - Place a thin / little pillow under neck and hips
Side Sleepers - Place a pillow under head / neck and in between knees
By making the necessary adjustments, each sleeper can reap the benefits of a comfortable sleep, a corrected weight distribution, a proper organ alignment and an improved health future!
