What is the right way to sleep?
I've been having trouble getting a good night's sleep lately, always tossing and turning. Is there a 'right way' to sleep that can help improve sleep quality?

I developed severe cervical issues because I used to stack multiple thick pillows under my head. If you are experiencing regular numbness in your hands or morning neck pain, please get it checked by a doctor instead of trying different tricks.

I agree with sleeping on the side; using a small pillow under your knees while lying on your back also relieves lower spine pressure beautifully.

No need for expensive mattresses. Just use a firm cotton gaddi, keep a single medium-firm pillow that doesn't push your neck too high, and sleep on your left side. It keeps both digestion and spine happy without spending a fortune.

At my age, the right way to sleep is any way that doesn't make my back sound like cracker when I wake up! Seriously, keeping a thin pillow and lying on the side is what keeps me functioning these days.
