人在睡眠时是最放松，最没防备的时候，因此也是最能体现性格的时候，今天小编就来教教你如何通过睡姿看性格。
Curl up like a baby？
像婴儿一样蜷缩着？
Those who favor the side-lying fetal position tend to be sensitive， but may project a tough exterior， reported Chris Idzikowski， PhD。 Likewise， Dr。 Idzikowski added， fetal sleepers tend to be quite personable， even if they come off as shy upon first meeting people。
克里斯。伊兹科瓦斯基博士指出，“喜欢像婴儿一样侧躺着睡觉的人往往比较敏感，不过他们也可能会有强硬的外表。”他还补充道，像婴儿一样蜷缩着睡觉的人往往也很平易近人，虽然在首次见面的人面前他们也会害羞。
Sleeping like a log？
像根木头似的躺着？
Sleeping like a “log” is the way Dr。 Idzikowski describes lying on your side with your arms at your sides。 If this is your favorite sleeping position， then you’re probably easy-going， social， and relatively trusting of strangers。 That said， you may also be a bit gullible 。
睡觉的时候侧躺着且把手臂安置在一侧，伊兹科瓦斯基博士把这样的睡姿称为“像根木头似的”躺着。如果这是你最喜欢的睡姿，那么你可能是一个容易相处且好交际的人，而且你相对比较信任陌生人，也就是说，你可能也比较容易受骗。
Sleeping like a log but with arms that “yearn”？
像根木头似的躺着，但伸着手臂像“渴望着什么一般”？？
Like the log position， the yearning-log indicates an open nature， according to Dr。 Idzikowski， with an added benefit： You’re probably not as gullible。 You’re also probably slower to make up your mind， but once you do， you’re less likely to change it。
伊兹科瓦斯基博士称，就像木头式睡姿一样，渴望式睡姿说明你性情开放，而且你还有一项额外的优点：那就是你可能不容易受骗。在做决定上，你可能要慢一些，不过一旦你下定决心，就不太可能会改变主意。
Taking side-sleeping to the next level
侧躺的升级版
None of our experts offered an opinion as to what this position may mean about your personality； however， if you adopt it even for a night， it means you’re open to learning from others。
对于这种睡姿可能会揭示的性格，没有专家给出任何意见，然而，如果你采用了这种睡姿，即使只有一晚，这也说明你愿意向别人学习。
But which side？ 朝哪侧睡？
According to a survey， left-side sleeping is favored by those who work in marketing and advertising， those between the ages of 45 and 54， and those who are degree-educated， whereas right-side sleeping is favored by those who work in transport and manufacturing， those between the ages of 35 and 44， and those who smoke and love caffeine。
一项调查指出，那些从事营销和广告类工作，年龄在45岁到54岁之间，且受过高等教育的人比较喜欢朝左侧睡；而那些从事运输及生产制造类工作，年龄在35岁到44岁之间，抽烟且喜欢喝咖啡的人，他们则比较喜欢朝右侧睡。
Tummy time
趴着睡
Sleeping face down is far less popular than side-sleeping。 According to a research， stomach-sleepers tend to work in agriculture， to be between the ages of 45 and 54， and to be heavy drinkers。 According to Dr。 Idzikowski， however， if your sleeping position of choice is face-down with your head turned to one side and your pillow grasped between your arms， you have a tendency to be gregarious， and even at times brash but you really don’t like to be criticized。 And you do your best to avoid extreme situations。
趴着睡不如侧躺着睡受欢迎。一项研究指出，趴着睡的人往往从事农业，年龄在45岁到54岁之间，且喜欢喝酒。伊兹科瓦斯基博士表示，如果你选择趴着睡，且头部转向一侧，枕头夹在手臂之间，你往往喜欢交际，甚至有时候会自以为是，但你真的不喜欢被指责，不过你会尽力避免极端的情况。
On the back track？
仰卧着睡？
People who sleep flat on their back tend to work in transport and logistics。 And they’re also most likely to wake up feeling “refreshed。” But maybe that’s because back-sleepers tend to be a young group， in general， with most of them being between the ages of 25 and 34， which is the best age for sleeping soundly through the night。 In addition， snoring is associated with back-sleeping， according to Dr。 Greuner， which means that although you may be waking up refreshed， your partner won’t be。 However， this can be alleviated by sleeping on your side。
仰卧着睡的人往往从事运输和物流类工作，而且他们起床的时候，最有可能会觉得“神清气爽”。不过这也许是因为仰卧着睡的人往往都是年轻人，且他们中的大多数人通常年龄都在25岁到34岁之间，而这是整晚都可以睡得香的最佳年龄段。另外，格鲁内尔博士表示，打鼾也与仰卧着睡有关，这意味着虽然你起床的时候可能觉得神清气爽，但你的伴侣却不会。不过你可以侧着睡来减轻打鼾的症状。
Freestyler？
自由式睡姿？
Freestyle sleepers tend to work in utilities and are typically between the ages of 35 and 44。 Mattress designer， Flother， thinks that everyone’s a bit of a freestyler。 “We’re all much more active at night than we think we are，” she says。 “We naturally move 50 to 80 times every single night， and all that so-called tossing and turning is actually a good thing。” Nighttime movement keeps the muscles supple， and helps distribute nutrients and hormones to all parts of the body。“
睡姿自由的人往往从事于公共事业，年龄通常在35岁到44岁之间。床垫设计师弗拉泽认为，每个人的睡姿都会有些许自由。“在夜间，我们都比自己所认为的要活跃得多，”她说道。“我们本来每天晚上就会挪动50到80次，而这些所谓的辗转反侧实际上都是有益的。”夜间活动可以使肌肉保持柔韧，还有助于把营养物质和激素输送到全身各个部位。
