Practical tips to optimize your sleeping posture
You don’t need to revolutionize your habits to improve your sleep. Here are some simple tips:
- Choose the right pillow : It should keep your head aligned with your spine, neither too high nor too low.
- Support your hips : If you sleep on your side, place a pillow between your knees to reduce pressure on your lower back.
- Adjust your mattress : A medium-firm mattress is often ideal for maintaining good alignment without being too rigid.
- Limit screens before sleep : Blue light disrupts the production of melatonin , which is essential for restful sleep.
- Create an environment conducive to sleep : Cool, quiet and dark bedroom for optimal rest.
