A bit of entertainment content today. Recently, we came across a video that talks about this theory. The tradition of sleeping on 5 pillows goes back to ancient China, and there it even has the name "Five Bamboo Wives of the Emperor". Why bamboo? Because in ancient times, tied bamboo shoots were used as pillows. Well, below we tell you why there should be five pillows and what it does to the human body.
So the first pillow goes under the head. In height, it should be equal to the height of the shoulder and have the level of stiffness that is comfortable for you.
The second small pillow is placed under the hand, which is located below in a position on the side. It is necessary to relieve tension from the joint and relax the muscles. And also provides conditions for a free position of the hand.
A third pillow is placed under your other arm to relax it and take pressure off your chest, heart and lungs. Put it completely from the shoulder on the pillow so that it has good support.
The fourth pillow is placed under the leg that is on top of you. In this way, you ensure a parallel arrangement of the legs, help relax the muscles of the buttocks and thighs, ensure good blood flow, and relieve tension from the hip joint.
The fifth pillow is placed under the back. In this way, it protects the lower back from drafts, relieves excess tension and helps to additionally relax.
If you are comfortable sleeping on your back, be sure to put an extra pillow under your knees to relieve tension from your lower back. And also choose a pillow under your head of such a height that the head does not squeeze the neck, and the neck is an extension of the spine. In this way, you ensure a free flow of fresh air and avoid snoring.
