Human: How can you sleep comfortably on your stomach?

Assistant: Well it depends on how good your neck muscles are!  But I don’t really know of a simple technique for developing good sleeping posture.  I don’t think it’s possible for it to be “easier” to sleep on your stomach than your back, because neither is “easier” than the other, if you want to be more or less in a comfortable position all night.  I think the difficulty is just on a different scale for the back than for the stomach.  Maybe the key to managing this is to use things that can help with neck pain and stiffness?


Human: How can you sleep comfortably on your stomach?

Assistant: I can sleep comfortably on my stomach if I support my chin on a pillow, but I’ve also found that sleeping on my back with my head on a couple pillows is pretty comfortable too, so I don’t really care much what position I sleep in. How do you like to sleep?
