Bed-sharing posture is critical
The posture is out of tune and the feelings are hurt
Many men have encountered this situation
Ever since my wife liked this pose
It was as if his body had been plucked
empty
Didn't sleep well all night
The suffocating "Nine Yin White Bone Legs"
Hunt and kill all the way, there is nowhere to escape
He is also often awakened by freezing in the middle of the night
When I opened my eyes, the quilt was "clipped"
Long-term lack of sleep, can't help but run wild
Why do girls love to clip things so much when they sleep?
Clarification is needed first
"Love to sleep with things in" is not a patent for girls
Some boys said they had the same habit
(Source: Kuaishou Platform, Fan Review of Tencent Medical Dian Kangkang)
Secondly, "sleeping with things in between" mostly occurs when sleeping on the side
In fact, this habit has many benefits
01 Save the knee and leg muscles
Many friends who are used to sleeping on their sides may have had this experience
When you wake up, your calves are numb and you are more tired than before bedtime
I can't help but wonder:
"Obviously I just slept
How is it like getting into a fight with someone? ”
This may be related to sleeping posture
When sleeping on your side, there is a gap between your legs
The upper leg is gravity-driven downwards closer to the bed surface and the lower leg
At this time, the soft tissue on the outside of the thigh is in an elongated state
This in turn causes hip flexion and adduction
The piriformis muscle is pulled and the sciatic nerve is jammed
May cause radiation pain in the lower extremities
in time
This may result in skewed knee and ankle joints
Prolonged pain occurs
If you clip a small soft pillow or a folded blanket or towel between your legs
It can change this suspended state to a certain extent
Reduce the effect of gravity on the upper leg
Let it "land" safely
During our long sleep
Get fully soothed and relaxed
02 Improve sleep quality
The health of the spine affects the quality of sleep
The results of the study show
The healthier the spine, the higher the sleep index, i.e. the better the quality of sleep[2]
Normally
The front and back of the spine should be a straight line
(Note: The spine is made up of multiple vertebrae connected)
But when sleeping on your side, the upper leg causes the pelvis to tilt or rotate
It then causes abnormal positions of the lumbar spine, thoracic spine, shoulders, and cervical spine
If this is the case for a long time, it may cause discomfort in the waist, back, and neck
Place soft pillows, blankets or towels between your legs
Helps maintain a neutral position in the spine
It plays a role in protecting the spine and improving the quality of sleep
03 Heat dissipation ventilation
The appropriate temperature, usually slightly cooler
Significantly improves sleep quality[3]
The temperature in the quilt is higher
When we slept on our side with the quilt between
One leg was exposed
Acts as a heat dissipation, helps to wick away sweat and keep cool
in a word
"Sleep with something in your pocket" has the ability to improve the quality of sleep,
Relax joints, soothe muscles and many other benefits
However, it is not recommended that everyone will be a partner
As a "tool man" sandwiched between legs
A survey by the National Sleep Foundation shows
Sleep is associated with marital satisfaction
When encountering a "difficult" partner
How to improve the quality of their respective sleep?
The following 2 tricks please put away:
First, the pillow as a barrier
Put a "pillow wall" between you
To a certain extent, it can play a role in blocking the sound and movement of the other party
Second, sleep in separate rooms in the short term
Sleeping in separate rooms is not recommended as a long-term solution
But when one party's sleep is disturbed by a partner for a long time
It is not conducive to the normal functioning of the body
It is also easy to produce negative emotions and affect the feelings of both parties
Therefore, consider sleeping in separate rooms in the short term
As for insisting on seeing here
Feeling useless knowledge has increased the number of single dogs
