To sleep correctly, consider the following positions based on your needs:
Side Sleeping
- *Benefits*: Ideal for spinal alignment, reduces snoring, and is especially beneficial during pregnancy.
- *Tip*: Use a pillow between your knees for added support.
Back Sleeping
- *Benefits*: Good for neck pain and helps prevent wrinkles. A medium-firm mattress aids in maintaining spinal alignment.
- *Caution*: This position may exacerbate sleep apnea.
Stomach Sleeping
- *Benefits*: Can reduce snoring.
- *Drawback*: Often leads to neck and back pain. If you prefer this position, consider using a softer pillow.
Choose a sleeping position that feels comfortable while promoting good posture for a restful night’s sleep.
