The 'zero-gravity' sleeping position, created by NASA to protect astronauts' bodies from the significant forces they're subjected to during space travel, can improve the overall quality of sleep and combat the symptoms of health struggles and conditions like arthritis, muscle and joint pain, insomnia, snoring, acid reflux, poor circulation, and varicose veins. The position involves laying flat on your back and raising both your head and feet slightly above your heart level, so the spine is neutrally aligned, relieving pressure on the body. It can help with sleep apnea and snoring, insomnia and sleep disruption, circulation issues, oedema, varicose veins, acid reflux, heartburn, and digestion problems.
