      Sleeping with your head to the north.

      I was reading an article in the Newspaper yesterday about how if you sleep with your head pointing North, then this will make you go to sleep much faster. So i was a little skeptical, but i had problems sleeping lately and i asked, "What do i have to lose". Anyways, i laid in bed facing north, and i was awake for a while. Then i fell asleep and i went into the most vivid dream about me being in this city studying animals. Then i woke up, extremely rested and about ready to just get up and do anything. I don't know if that head to the North thing made a difference, but i would like to believe it did.

      P.S. - Before i tried this my recall was terrible and i could barely sleeping.

      ----Anyone else heard of or tried doing this??
      Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?

      I have never once heard of such a thing, though it does sound very interesting. I'll be sure to try it out this week.

      i do this all the time but i think it is more of a change your position to sleep better than the direction itself.my bed points south and if i can't sleep i stretch or go on my back or stomach and if i still can't sleep i flip around so my head is north and my feet are under my pillow.i then fall asleep promptly no matter how awake i am.

      An expert on OOB's (out of body experiences) also said to sleep with your head to the north for the best results... I believe. I have it on paper somewhere.

      Yeah id assume it could be a placebo only effect.

      But nothing wrong with that at all.

      50% of everything is a placebo effect hehe.

      Just us believing in something alone can make something happen.

      Yeah, that's true for most things. The power of the human mind is amazing.

      I sleep with my head North but not on purpose, thats just what fits the layout of my room.

      Yea, I did. I recently changed rooms at home because of new furniture, so now I have to figure out a set up I like where i can sleep with my head pointing north.

      Also, I'm at college right now and I'm trying to figure a way to where I can sleep with my head to the north.
