What happens if you start sleeping without a pillow under your head?

How many pillows do you need to sleep? If your answer is one pillow, the answer is wrong. Experts say that for a healthy full sleep, a person needs 5 pillows. And some do without them at all. The fact is that each person sleeps in different positions. But not everyone knows how the posture during sleep affects the body. If you do not know what the correct sleeping position looks like, we will be happy to tell you about it.



The correct sleeping position, in which a person completely relaxes and gives rest to his whole body, does not look very comfortable for most people. This is a position in which a person is completely straightened, lying on his back. Your hands are relaxed and your feet are relaxed. In this case, the wrong pillow (too soft and low or too hard and high) can only harm.



Pay attention to your health after sleep. Headaches or back pain, discomfort in the neck - a clear sign that it's time to pay attention to how and what you sleep. A high pillow keeps the neck in a tense state, which can subsequently cause pain in the muscles of the shoulder girdle. If the pillow is too low, the neck will still be strained during sleep.



During sleep, if the pillow does not suit you and it is uncomfortable to sleep on, you will turn. This can cause lack of sleep, weakness, nervousness. The body will not be able to rest properly.
Try sleeping for a week without a pillow. To be honest, I used to sleep on soft pillows, then on dense and high ones. But over time, it turned out that sleeping without a pillow is much more comfortable. It’s easier to wake up in the morning and you feel better. And on my pillow sleeps a faithful dog, what good to miss?



If you sleep on your side, you will need at least two pillows for a comfortable sleep. One under the head and the other between the legs. Only in this way you can unload the spine and relax the muscles of the upper leg as much as possible.



Sleep on the back with a pillow under the head will be better if you put another pillow under the feet and a small pillow under the lower back. Then they will repeat the natural curves of the spine.



Position on the stomach is not very useful, especially for those who have problems with the spine and heart. There are people who fall asleep in the so-called "superhero" position, with one leg bent at the knee. Then put a pillow under that leg.



It turns out that a pillow for pregnant women who can not sleep on their side is suitable for all of humanity. Anyone who has ever fallen asleep on such a pillow knows that there is no better object for a sound sleep. And yet try to fall asleep on your back, maybe the body will eventually get used to sleeping in the right position and you will finally be able to sleep well.
