Apparently, This Is The Side Of The Bed You Should Get Out On

You’ve probably heard the saying “someone got out of bed the right side this morning” and according to this research, there might be a grain of truth in it. A survey conducted by bed manufacturer Sealy questioned 1,000 UK residents and found that those who got out of bed on the left side are more likely to be in a good mood. The research that people who prefer the left side tend to have a higher degree of job satisfaction and lots of friends. Spotted on Marie Claire, the survey showed that people who got out of bed on the left side were 9.5 per cent more likely to have a “positive world outlook” than those who got out on the right. It's hard enough get up in the first place... Discussing the research, Neil Robinson, sleep expert for Sealy, said: "While the margins are small, the research certainly highlights an interesting trend; could it be possible that the left side of the bed is the “right” side? “For many cohabiting couples this may prove problematic - with each side of the bed a fiercely guarded territory, changing from right to left may not be that easy. “The good news is, for those “righties” without a choice, the real way to waking up in a good mood each morning is less about which side you sleep on, and more about getting 7.5 - 8 hours’ sleep each a night on a supportive, comfortable bed.” While we know it’s not quite as simple as this, we might give the left side of the bed more consideration in future.
