Sleep in whatever position you want
Do you know what the healthiest sleep position is? It turns out there are a couple. You’ve likely noticed if you sleep in one position for too long, you start to become uncomfortable, so it’s normal to want to change positions a few times throughout the night. But, sharing a bed with a partner can make you hesitant to do so, for fear that all that commotion will wake them up. Maybe they’re the one who changes positions often, and wakes you up. Maybe at some times, they spread out too much, accidentally touching or kicking you in the night, and waking you. You both have to sleep perfectly straight and still like sardines not to bother each other. But with a bed all to yourself, you can switch positions without fear of waking the other.
