👋
Hope you’re having a great day.
Just wanted to thank you for joining the list & truly hope you will get some great insights from it - and hope you'll share yours too so we can grow together :)
As you might have seen om my Instagram story, last night I slept on the floor...
Let me give a little more context:
Last weeks I stumbled upon some YouTube video's of people that have been sleeping on the floor instead of in a bed for a couple of months (some even years) and somehow that peeked my interest.
It is said to have great health benefits, but it's a little weird, isn't it?
Last night, the good old YouTube algorithm served me this one. And while scrolling through the comments I noticed how many people are actually feeling the benefits of improved posture and less back aches after sleeping on the floor.
And impulsive and curious as I can be, I thought...
Well... Let's just try! (and hope my mom doesn't walk in)
Now it is said to take around 7 days for your body to adapt to it, so the first nights can be a little uncomfortable.
And for me, last night wasn't too bad actually. I slept on a yoga mat with a weighted blanket on top of it, with my regular pillow and blankets. What I noticed:
- Falling asleep was a little harder (no pun intended)
- I woke up quite some times, maybe a little more than usual
- It took some getting used to, but it actually feels kinda good. The pressure on your back can feel a bit massaging in some way
- Laying on my bed this morning (to feel the difference) didn't feel better, just made me want to stay in there for longer. This is something us entrepreneurs would prefer not to for obvious reasons
Think I will test this for at least a week, maybe two. Will share my findings with you.
Be great,
Bart Gommers
PS: What is your biggest health 'hack' or habit? Would love to test them out
