Side, Stomach or Back? Is your sleeping position keeping you awake?

[StevenHWicker]

Awareness in sleep and the importance of it is trending as the modern person understands the benefits for not only health but in productivity and performing at an optimal pace in this fast demanding world. So, it stands to reason that we question - why most of us have poor sleep?

Now there are a range of factors for self diagnosis on why your sleep quality is so poor and we don't recommend you go to WebMD just yet. Poor Sleep quality ranges from Obstructive and Central sleep apnea to something as simple as having poor quality sleep equipment like a bad mattress. However for most of us its our sleeping position. Is your sleep position keeping you awake? Surely you would sleep in the position that's most comfortable? What if your pillow won't allow you to get into the position most comfortable for you? Sure, you can get a few hours here and there but are you actually getting good rest?

A starting point would be your Neck Pillow. Your optimum sleeping position depends on the pillow you use and its not a one size fits all scenario. It's a trial and error process to test different heights according to your specific frame with the outcome of a rating on the quality of the previous nights rest.

So, which pillow to buy? There are literally thousands you can trial without spending a dollar. It is a trial and error process after all. First thing is make sure they have a good returns policy so that if that pillow doesn't work for you, you can return it and get your money back. Secondly make sure the pillow has an element of organic fibres to it. Its important that your pillow disperses heat and keeps cool which will aid in sleeping better helping your body regulate its temperature. Most pillows out there are polyester and if you know your textiles polyester gets hot and you will become uncomfortable thus disrupting sleep. So there really is no excuse

These are the main two caveats to go into a testing phase to find which Neck support pillow is right for you.
