"Cameron Diaz advocates for normalizing separate bedrooms in relationships."

Actress Cameron Diaz has expressed her support for "sleep divorce," the practice of sleeping separately from one's partner to avoid sleep troubles. Diaz believes that separate bedrooms should be normalized, allowing couples to have their own space for a good night's sleep while still having a shared bedroom for intimacy. A survey from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine found that over a third of Americans occasionally or consistently sleep in another room from their partner. Experts suggest that there can be potential benefits to sleep divorce, especially when one partner has a sleep disorder or when differing sleep preferences negatively impact both partners' sleep. However, if there are no sleep problems, sleeping in the same bed is considered better for the release of oxytocin and other bonding hormones.

"Unlocking Better Sleep and Building Character: Amanda Knox's Tip"

Swapping sides of the bed each night is the correct way to sleep alongside another person, according to a columnist. Side sleeping is the best position for back pain, reducing snoring, pregnancy, and canoodling. Sleeping on the same side can cause problems with shoulders and hips, so alternating sides helps distribute weight evenly. It also prevents making the same indentations on the mattress every night. Simplifying bedside items and learning to sleep without dependencies like sleep masks and white noise machines can make the transition easier. However, some exceptions, like adjustable mattresses and CPAP machines, may require different approaches.

Avoid These 5 Bedroom Paint Colors.

The bedroom is a place for relaxation and sleep, and the colors used in the room can affect sleep quality and mood. According to color psychology, certain paint colors should be avoided in the bedroom, including red, bright yellow, dark brown, dark gray, and bold purples. These colors can be overstimulating, evoke negative emotions, and make the space feel cramped and uninviting. Instead, opt for calming, neutral tones or muted shades of beige or cream for a soothing environment. Bold colors can still be used in soft furnishings or as a feature wall.

Its aroma can improve the first stage of REM sleep, and inhaling its scent can reduce REM latency. However, some experts hold reservations and suggest speaking to a doctor before trying it out.
