Body language is a powerful thing. Apparently it's so powerful that how you sleep with your significant other in bed says a lot about your relationship. The Nest interviewed two professionals -- author Evany Thomas (The Secret Language of Sleep), and Patti Wood, a body language expert -- about your sleep style decoded.
Four major positions and what they mean:
1. The Football: Both on your sides facing each other with one foot touching.
Just like touching a foot is enough contact for football players, you and your honey don't need to be around each other all the time to connect. You make the most of the time you do have together.
2. Classic Spoon: Full front-to-back contact, with one person tucked into the other.
You are a traditional couple -- the protective one on the outside and the sensitive one on the inside.
3. Tetherball: One of you on your back with a single hand on the other person.
You're both strong-minded and willful people who find ways to compromise. A heated discussion can lead to romance.
4. Cliff-Hangers: Sleeping on opposite sides of the bed with your backs to each other.
You prove that opposites attract. He likes sports and you like the opera, but you find ways to meet in the middle. Though there may be a rift in your relationship, practicality trumps all.
The best sleeping partner combos:
•The Spaghetti Noodle: You sleep on your side with your arms out and are mellow + The Soldier: You’re so go-with-the-flow, you need a little structure!
•The Crab: You lie face down, like you’re making out with your pillow, and tend to be stubborn + The Spaghetti Noodle: You need someone loose who'll bend around you.
•The Soldier: You sleep on your back with your arms at your sides + The Womb: A womb sleeper’s softness will soothe your rigid side.
•The Womb: You curl up and are as thoughtful as you are cozy + The Crab: You sleep in a tiny ball, and a Crab isn’t into snuggling.
Do you think these are accurate? What's your sleeping style?
