According to science, what is the right way to sleep, in which position to sleep?
Stanford University researcher William Dement has given a concrete explanation for sleep. He has done research on sleep. After many years of research, he has given his opinion about different types of sleep. What is the right way to sleep, whether to turn or not, he has told everything?
Men have the most restlessness during sleep.
Men (especially those under the age of 35) have the most restlessness during sleep, and they frequently switch sides, and make movements in the arms, thighs, and upper body. This isn't a bad thing, as it's generally a good idea to keep your body moving during the night. During sleep, your body will monitor any pain or discomfort and adjust the position accordingly.
Get a bigger bed
if you can't move If you find that you can't move because your partner (or dog) is taking up too much space in the bed, consider switching sides or getting a bigger bed. And don't keep yourself in one place; Give yourself some room to keep rolling on both sides. Being comfortable is important. There is no quality research providing clear evidence for the position in which maximum restful sleep comes from. Your age, weight, environment, activities and whether you are pregnant all play a part in which sleeping position is best for your body.Read Also-Do you also suffer from tangled hair syndrome?

Waking up in the morning with pain
Ideally, we can find a position that helps us get a good night's sleep, and one that keeps us from waking up in any pain. Even with the position we choose, some positions are better than others. According to one study, people who sleep in a position where the spine is bent (such as sleeping on one side without support), wake up with more pain in the morning. While some forms of side-sleeping can put a slight strain on the spine, it appears that side positions, in general, are still better than other options.
Choose the right pillow for good sleep
Choosing the right pillow is very important for a good sleep. Lack of proper head and neck support during sleep severely affects spinal alignment, and causes muscle problems such as neck pain, shoulder pain, and muscle stiffness. Obviously, the pillow material does not affect the spine. Instead, its size and height matter. A U-shaped pillow can help you get a longer night's sleep, and a roll-shaped pillow can ease morning pain and bedtime pain in people with chronic pain.Which is the best mattress
Unfortunately, science hasn't given us the answer as to what is the best mattress. With everyone sleeping differently, it will be hard to compare over the long term. However, a bad mattress is when your bed isn't flat or comfortable, is squeezing out of place, has lost its firmness, the springs in the mattress make a noise, or there are obvious signs of wear and tear. Consider replacing the mattress. Rotating the mattress can also help with its longevity and improve comfort. This should be done at least once to twice per year.Go to the toilet before sleeping,
set the temperature of the room. The ideal temperature for sleep is 18.3 ° C; High temperatures can affect sleep. Make arrangement for the movement of air in the room. This arrangement brings in nice, fresh air as well as removes any accumulated heat, making us feel good and cool at night. Certain medications, such as some types of antihistamines, can make it easier to fall asleep. On the other hand, stimulants like caffeine can significantly affect the quality of your sleep. Lastly, make sure your bladder is empty while you sleep so that you don't have to wake up at night.(Christian Morrow Associate Professor of Science and Medicine, Bond University and Charlotte Phelps PhD Student, Bond University) Charlotte, September 28 (The Conversation)
