In this video you will know what are the benefits of sleeping on your side. The whole idea isn't new: it comes from the ancient India, where its medical science called Ayurveda, taught people that sleeping on the left side promotes better digestion and enhances the efficiency of your rest.

In short, sleeping on the left side of your body gives you this:

Facilitates lymphatic drainage
Makes it easier for the heart to pump downhill
Improves elimination
Supports healthy spleen function
Normalizes digestion
Helps circulation back to the heart
Encourages a better bile flow
