What your sleep position says about you
Categories: Diet & Weight Loss, Motivation
I've always slept in the same position, from the time I was a kid to the present: On my side, slightly curled, not moving until I wake up. I think everybody has a sleeping style that they're accustomed to. And according to this article from AOL Body, your sleeping style is more than what you're used to--it's indicative of your personality. Interesting, no? Here's what they have to say about the different positions:
- Those who sleep in the fetal position are thought to be tough on the outside but sensitive and even shy on the inside. 41% of people (mostly women) sleep in this position.
- Those who lie on the their side with their arms down tend to be sociable and trusting.
- Those who lie on their sides with their arms in front are often open but somewhat cynical.
- Those who lie on their backs with their arms at their sides tend to be quiet and reserved.
- Those who who lie on their stomachs with their arms up by their heads tend to be brash
- Those who lie on their backs with their arms by their heads make the best friends.

Huh. I recently changed my sleeping position from the third option (side with arms in front) to the last (on back with arms at head). I wonder what the change itself might mean ...

Good question. Surely it can't signify a personality change ... or can it ... ? Haha!
