What Your Sleeping Positions Say About You


We generally don’t give much thought to how we sleep, if we’re feeling comfy and cozy. But some sleep psychologists suggest that your preferred sleep position may actually be linked to your personality.

Fetal (on your side, arms and legs curled up). Shy at first, fetal sleepers may be a teddy bear hidden in a grizzly’s body.

Soldier (on your back, arms down at your sides). Quiet and reserved, soldier sleepers tend to have high standards.

Freefall (on your stomach, arms under or wrapped around the pillow, head to the side). Freefallers generally don’t like criticism or extreme situations.
