As we have to spend about one third of our life in sleep, it is therefore important to sleep the right way.

The following sleep posture is advocated by qigong masters to enable us to have the correct sleeping posture.

Try doing this:

  1. Lie on your right side ( not on the front or back)
  2. Keep the right leg slightly bent
  3. Rest the left leg on the right leg with the knee bent
  4. The right hand supports the head in such a way that the hand encircles the ears and keep it open
  5. The upper arm can rest either on the side or folded so that the closed fist rests over the navel
  6. While falling asleep, concentrate the mind on the lower Dan Tian ( two inches below the navel) and let the breathing be as relaxed as possible.
