On the side
If it is the left, it is a sign that we have a preoccupied mind, that we are in a context of change or questioning. If it is the right, it marks a strong temperament... and can reveal a possessive or authoritarian character.
Hands up
A posture (quite rare) which translates a need for elevation… and a big ambition. As if by falling asleep like this we were trying to get the moon and the stars !
Hands on stomach
Falling asleep with your fingers crossed on your stomach would boost the motivation and dynamics of the sleeper. A position that we adopt when we are in a period of change (even of difficulty or failure).
Hands crossed under the head
This is a sign of a lack of self-confidence. By putting ourselves in this position, we seek to reassure ourselves in the face of a situation that has troubled us during the day.
On the belly
This position provides a feeling of security, control and gives the impression of being less vulnerable. In teenagers, a period of emotional instability, this is the most common position. In adults, we lie down on our stomach to fill an emotional deficiency or to calm a feeling of hypersensitivity.
On the back, ankles crossed
Falling asleep on your back is a sign of balance. By sleeping like this, the rib cage is cleared, we oxygenate ourselves better and night fitness is more effective. Naturally, this is the preferred position for napping. If you cross your left ankle over the right, it is a proof of self-confidence. Crossing the right ankle over the left is an unconscious ritual that aims to boost self-confidence.
Cheek placed in the palm of the hand
If you put your left cheek in the palm of your left hand, it means that you feel a need for tenderness or hugs... If you put your right cheek in the right palm, it's a sign of courage, perseverance and tenacity.
