Try a Different Snoring Sleep Position!

When considering a good snoring sleep position, keep in mind that there are positions you can sleep in that help you stop snoring and those that actually encourage even more snoring! While we can’t always help the way our bodies toss and turn at night during sleep, there are some things we can do when it comes to our bed and our pillows that will encourage a good snoring sleep position, that is, one that cuts down on incidents of snoring.

People are supposed to breathe through their nose at all times; the nose has natural filters that treat this air we take in. Breathing through the mouth is unnatural and during sleep, it makes one snore. This can clue you in on the basics of a good snoring sleep position - you want to be able to keep your mouth closed during sleep. We snore when the air going over the back of the throat and mouth causes the tissue back there to vibrate excessively, making the noise we call snoring. Sleeping on your side is a good snoring sleep position as the mouth is less likely to drop open. If you don’t sleep on your side naturally you might want to consider a body pillow that you can either clutch to your front or can prop up behind you to keep you on your side. Stop snoring pajamas are recommended by some people as a means of keeping you in an anti snoring sleep position. This involves sewing a tennis ball into a pocket on the back of your pajamas so that sleeping on your back, which is when most people snore, becomes too uncomfortable! Pillows are much more comfortable and usually just as effective.

You can also purchase an actual snore pillow to keep you in a good snoring sleep position. These pillows are made of firm foam and have a scoop shape in the sides which cushion and cradle your head and neck. They keep your head from falling back and your mouth from falling open even when you’re sleeping on your back. These pillows usually offer quite a bit of relief for most when it comes to snoring and are well worth the few dollars they cost. After all, you can’t always force yourself into a snoring sleep position when you’re asleep, so getting a nice pillow or bunch of pillows and propping yourself up can be the way to go.
