Sleeping position matters more than most realize, given the time we spend in bed. Sleeping on your side is popular and pleasant for many, but this small change can have a significant impact on your health. Understanding your sleeping posture can lead to better sleep quality and overall health benefits.
Improved Digestion and Heart Health: “Sleeping on your left side helps improve digestion” and “relieves pressure on the heart,” making it easier for blood to circulate. This can be particularly beneficial for those with heart issues.
Reduced Snoring and Sleep Apnea: Side sleeping “can help keep the airways open,” reducing snoring and easing sleep apnea. This simple shift can lead to more restful nights.
Relief of Back and Neck Pain: Proper spine alignment is crucial for reducing discomfort. Sleeping on your side promotes a “more neutral spine position,” potentially easing back and neck pain.
Pregnancy Benefits: Pregnant women are advised to sleep on their left side as it “promotes circulation to the heart” and increases blood flow to the fetus.
Making a small change, like moving to side sleeping, can significantly improve your well-being. Try it tonight and see the benefits for yourself.
A woman takes a photo while sprinting through the rainforest, only to later notice an eerie detail in the bushes
Over the years, the internet has seen its fair share of spooky images. From possible Bigfoot sightings to UFOs in the sky to ghosts haunting the windows of old houses, there’s no shortage of creepy photos.
While many of these images are often easily explained, usually just by camera blur or clever Photoshop work, there are some that seem to defy all logic. Take the case of runner Kay Borleis, who discovered something disturbing in a photo she took during her 100-mile run through the Hawaiian rainforest.
In 2019, Kay participated in the Hawaiian Ultra Running Team’s Trail 100-Mile Endurance Run, which involved completing five laps of a 20-mile loop through dense jungle. She was accompanied by her friend Cassie, who acted as a pacemaker and captured moments during her run.
A photo showing Kay walking along a muddy trail took a surprising turn when she later noticed a strange detail in the background. In a post on Reddit, Kay shared: “My Pacer took this photo. Look closely at the figure to the left of my head. We didn’t see anyone pass by and there were no statues on the trail. It’s NOT photoshopped; this is real”.
When you zoom in on the image, you can see a dark figure in tattered clothing who appears to be watching Kay as he runs. However, Kay insisted that no one was there at the time.
She continued: “According to Hawaiian legend, the ghosts of ancient warriors known as Night Marchers roam the island. Described as ‘murderous shadows’, they haunt the land as the spirits of past fighters and heroes”.
Kay continued her research and found that legends say that anyone who looks at the Night Marchers could face a terrible fate. To avoid this, mortals are advised to lie down in submission to show respect, which could potentially spare them harm.
“Luckily we didn’t encounter the Night Marcher”, she said with relief. Have you ever spotted something unexpected in one of your photos? Share your experiences in the comments!
