"As husband and wife, we will always share the same bed." Sharing the same bed is the Chinese people's basic understanding of marriage. But in recent years, there have been more and more arguments about whether couples should sleep in separate beds.

For example, according to a recent report by the BBC, British sleep expert Dr. Stanley set up a sleep laboratory at the University of Surrey in the UK. He recruited 40 couples to conduct a study on sleeping in separate beds, and practiced separate rooms with his wife. sleep. The results show that couples who sleep in the same bed are 50% more likely to have their sleep affected by their partner.

However, many gender experts and marriage counselors have pointed out that if couples stay in separate beds for a long time, the marital relationship may become indifferent, and it may even give a third party an opportunity to take advantage of the situation. In addition, some couples who are in a very good relationship are very dependent on each other. Sleeping in separate beds makes them toss and turn, affecting the quality of their sleep. In addition, some people are older and may have some cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and accidents are more likely to occur if they sleep alone.

Bao Shentao, a professional committee member of the Andrology Branch of the Chinese Association of Traditional Chinese Medicine and chief physician of the Andrology Department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, told the "Life Times" reporter that the main reason why many couples sleep in separate beds is that their partners snore and have different sleeping habits. Big, or one party often dreams or makes big movements while sleeping. In fact, these problems can be changed by adjusting small details in life.

For example, a couple who moves a lot while sleeping can buy a large bed to ensure that each other has more area for movement. The mattress should be slightly firm so that your partner will not be woken up when turning over or getting up; it is best to prepare two quilts so that when one person turns over, the other will not be affected. In addition, it is best for couples to go to bed at the same time. If one party often goes to bed late, the other party may consider buying an eye mask. More importantly, try not to sleep facing each other, or force two people to hug each other. This way, your partner's breath will affect the other person, and if they are too close together, the other person will not sleep comfortably. It is recommended to sleep back to back or with your faces facing the same direction.
