We often think sleep is enough to rejuvenate us. But even though we spend eight hours in bed, we sometimes wake up tired, with a sore back or a stiff neck. What if the real problem isn’t the length of sleep, but our sleeping position? Certain nighttime habits, subtle but persistent, can ruin our nights—and our days.
Sleeping position: a detail that changes everything
At night, our bodies regenerate: muscles relax, minds calm, and the immune system strengthens. However, for this recovery to be successful, your body must be positioned correctly. Incorrect or poorly supported posture can disrupt circulation, pinch nerves, and even trigger progressive chronic pain.
Do you sleep on your stomach? Without a suitable pillow? With a mattress that’s too soft? These still common mistakes can turn your nights into an obstacle course… without you even realizing it.
