Totally agree. When you do get into bed, take the time to build your "nest" so to speak.. Don't just plop yourself into bed. As you position yourself into bed, adjust your shoulders, arms, spine, hips, legs and feet. Use pillows to support various body parts. Be user-friendly. You are going to be here for hours at a time. Set yourself up for success. Breathe slowly and deliberately as you do so. When you wake and it is time to get out of bed, again this is an opportunity to set yourself up for success. Stretch your body. Flex and extend your arms and legs. Roll from side to side. Slowly engage all your body parts. Then slowly get out of bed and welcome the new day with a body that has been given ample opportunity to rest and recover. Let us know if any of these suggestions work for you.
