You may keep questioning yourself about the healthiest positions for sleeping. However, the best way to sleep would be the one in which you feel comfy and enjoy yourself.
Here I suggest you some best sleeping positions to give rest to your body and soul providing all kinds of health benefits besides making you feel fresh and rejuvenate to start a new day in your life.
No matter what position you sleep, the way your head is positioned can make a big difference in the quality of sleep you receive. Make sure your neck is well supported in a straight and forward looking position. Resting your neck at an angle or stretched or crunched too far can affect your breathing and cause neck pains
Back position
Resting on your back is one of the best positions to sleep as your head, neck, spine and body is rested in a neutral position.
Advantages
- Prevent neck pain
- Prevents back ache
- Reduces acid reflux
- Minimize wrinkles
- Maintain a good body figure
- Promotes healthy organs
Sleeping on your back flattens out your natural curves and may leave your lower back achey in the morning. Make sure you place a pillow under your legs if you sleep on your back.
Side position
Side sleeping works great for overall health and keeps spine elongated. When pregnant sleeping on to the left side helps keep heart healthy due to increase in blood circulation towards left side of the body. However, sleeping on the sides causes wrinkles on your face and also causes your breast to sag to one side and looses shape.
Place a pillow between your legs if you sleep on your side. This will support your hips and make this position more comfortable, relive pressure on your knees and keep your hips rotating.
Sleeping on Stomach
Avoid sleeping on your stomach as it is considered to be least healthy way to sleep. It’s difficult to maintain the proper position, and it is more likely to cause aches and pains as the neck is twisted and spine if forced out of alignment. If you wish to sleep on your stomach, put your pillow under your hips instead of under your head. Sleeping on your stomach can exasperate acid reflux.
