(Painting by:Henry Maynell Rheam)I am horribly cranky today as I'm rather tired and have a lot to do before we leave for Montreal on Friday. As well the PMS monster has awakened, so I figured I'd write about this interesting article I read rather than bitch and moan again about my hatred for my volleyball team and other such things.
I read an article a few weeks ago in the paper regarding sleep positions and how they are representative of our daytime personalities. Dr. Samuel Dunkell is the author of a book "Sleep positions: The Night Language of the Body.
Here's what he had to say:
1)Positioned on the side with knees slightly bent forward, the semi-fetal position indicates fair-minded, even tempered types who are layed back, adaptable and easy to get along with. They are friendly, social and trusting.
2)Those who sleep on their stomach are the neat and organized types who like to be in control of their surroundings, actions and relationships. Patti Wood says that lying face down indicates a need to protect oneself and stubbornness. "They hold strong beliefs and try to have everything done their way. They are tense and focused in order to get things done. They do not give ground easily. "
3)Sleeping on your back points to a high degree of confidence, even a bit of arrogance & these types like to be the centre of attention. As well, money tends to be a big motivator for them.
4)Full Fetal position reveals a vulnerable, sensitive type who is affectionate & loyal but needs to be reassured. Extremely emotional and artistic, expect intense one on one relationships Dunkell says.
Geez, I always start off sleeping on my stomach. I find I can't fall asleep while lying on my back.....must mean I'm modest haha!!! Which position do you most often sleep in?
I have a friend in from out of town on Thursday evening and a very early flight on Friday morning so this shall be my last post until I return next week. Have a great 4th of July for the Americans and the rest of you, enjoy the week!!

I'm a flopper but always end up on my stomach. Hmmmmm ... I guess I am a LITTLE stubborn! LOL!
End up on my stomach. That description couldn't be more off.
I'm right there with you on the PMS! haha TMI? Have some chocolate!
I am the #1 sleep position.
Crazy Me, i'm also a rather restless sleeper.
Wiwille, so you're messy & don't like to have your own way :P
JLee, someone reccommended Vitex to me to help with PMSing. Haven't researched it yet but it's a thought. (and of course lots and lots of chocolate)
I sleep on my side.
I'm on the side, knees slightly bent. I think the description fits me.
I sleep in all those positions. Hmmm!
-N
I switch positions a lot in my sleep. Does this mean I'm having an identity crisis? :P
Surprise, surprise... I'm a stomach sleeper. Oh, but sometimes on my side too. It depends. I would agree that I'm stubborn though =)
I like to mix it up while sleeping, which I hope doesn't mean I'm a schizo. Have a good trip to Montreal.
I alternate between 1 and 3, and as you all know I'm quite fair-mined and very even tempered.
The boyf is a 2, which probably explains why I never liked that guy.
Let me know how that Vitex works if you try it. I need a happy pill!!! lol
People who sleep on their backs always snore (which tends to make them the centre of attention for whoever is lying awake next to them --not that I'm naming any names or anything; cough jasonjudge cough cough).
I'm halfway between 1 and 2. I guess I'm both stubborn and laid-back at the same time.
always have slept on the back!
i am not arrogant...
I'm all over the place...I think I usually end up on my back though. Hmmmm
