Sleep Positions: What is Best?

Sleeping Correctly


Are you misaligning yourself while you sleep?


Helpful tips to guarantee that you are sleeping in the correct position for proper LIFE flow:


*Avoid sleeping on your stomach. In this position, you will be blocking the nerves in your neck for 8 hours straight (these nerves supply your thyroid, sinus’, neck muscles, shoulders, arms and hands)


*Whether you are on your back or stomach, make sure your spine is ‘straight.’ You can get a mirror and check yourself to make sure you are lined up correctly.


*Avoid using two pillows


*When lying on your side, have a pillow that is the width between your shoulder and your ear.


*Make sure your shoulders are not under the pillow.


*Avoid tucking your chin down when lying on your side.


*It takes a solid month to begin breaking poor sleeping habits.
