2- Arms above the head: compromised circulation
Some people sleep with their arms extended above their heads or tucked under their pillows. However, this posture is not without consequences:
- Compression of nerves, causing tingling or numbness in the arms.
- Tension in the shoulders, which can reduce mobility over the long term.
If you experience frequent tingling upon waking, consider repositioning your arms to avoid this compression.
3- Too curled up fetal position: a trap for the spine
Sleeping in the curled-up position is a popular position, but curling up too much can be detrimental to your health. When your knees are too close to your chest and your chin is tucked in, you risk:
- Compress the lungs, thus reducing breathing capacity.
- Create excessive curvature of the spine.
- Lose flexibility in the long term.
Opt for a more relaxed sideways position, with your knees slightly bent, for greater comfort.
