The way you sleep can also help you understand more about your health
Research has uncovered what your preferred sleeping position says about you by looking at five of the most common snoozing habits. From the foetus to the starfish, there are various ways to get some shut-eye in bed, and some reveal a lot about your personality.
According to psychiatrist, Dr. Kara Bagot, it is likely that "physical and/or demographic characteristics and medical conditions influence sleeping position." Below is a look at the fetal, log, yearner, soldier and starfish sleeping positions and what they say about you. 2. Log While sleeping in a log position, people often are on their side and have both their arms and legs stretched out, so their body is straight like a log. Sleep scientist Chris Idzikowski claims this position indicates that a person is sociable and interacts with others easily. However, he also warns that this openness and willingness to trust could make them gullible.
4. Soldier Like the name suggests, sleeping in this position means lying with your body as straight as a soldier. Your legs are kept stretched out as well as your arms, which remain straight either side of you are you remain on your back.
