You might get extra wrinkles but it helps ease snoring. Left side helps with better digestion and less heartburn   Right side more positive for alleviating heart discomfort and shortness of breath.

This is very popular, with women making up 2/3 of the people who choose it.  Great for lower back pain or snorers but unless you’re limber it can eventually lead you to feel quite tight. With possible joint pain or soreness, as well as restricting your deep breathing.  Try extending your legs a little putting a pillow between your knees to ease any discomfort.

Personality: Tough on the outside, soft on the inside.
