Why should you sleep with your head facing north?

People have long known that healthy sleep is necessary for a quality, active day, but scientists still do not know for sure why people need to sleep.

However, everyone has long known that when a person does not get enough sleep, he begins to look and feel bad. Therefore, everyone needs to find time to get the required 7-9 hours of healthy sleep.

The direction of a person's head while sleeping has a profound impact on their physical and mental well-being.

Japanese doctrine of sleep

According to the teachings of Feng Shui (an ancient Chinese system of aesthetics that uses the energy of space and the people and things in that space), everything, from a person to a flower, is made up of energy and is therefore influenced by other types of energy.

According to the teachings of Feng Shui, people are divided into two groups - Eastern and Western. People from the eastern group prefer north, south, east and southeast for bed placement, while the eastern group chooses the opposite position.

Feng Shui teachings clearly state that you should only sleep facing north to avoid insomnia. This happens because the lines of energy on the planet move from north to south. The Hindus of Bali always slept facing north.

Japanese teachings about sleep say the following:

• The Sleeping North improves physical health.
• Sleeping South deepens sleep, triggers intuitive abilities, and increases your ability to remember dreams.
• Sleeping East helps you wake up quickly and get more energy.
• Sleeping West slows down activity - good for hyperactive children.

The American Indians Navajo believed that one should not sleep facing north, since it is very harmful to health and only dead people can be laid this way.

Important points about sleep position:

Head south

The best sleeping position is with your head pointing south and feet pointing north. This body position brings health, increases productivity and prolongs life.

Head north

Never sleep with your head to the north and your feet to the south. This position brings scary dreams and sleep disturbances. A person in this body position in a dream will feel unhappy, irritability, disappointment and emotional instability will appear. A person may lose 50% of his willpower and his soul power will not increase during such a dream. The person's physical and mental health will suffer.

According to the teachings of Vastu Shastra, the human body acts like a magnet, and the head is the North Pole. When a person sleeps with their head facing north, the poles of the body and the Earth repel each other and this can affect blood circulation, cause sleep disturbances and stress. But the position - South, East and West are acceptable.

Some believe that Vastu may have given advice contrary to the truth, leaving all the reliable information for his king. The idea was to keep the masses depressed and lethargic.

Due to conflicting information in various sources, it is not possible to give a definitive answer to the question of body position during sleep. Most likely, each person must choose the best direction for sleep for himself. It is best to experiment and find the best and most comfortable sleeping position for yourself.
