9 months in, first 4-5 were because of a back injury. The first month, I hated sleeping on the floor, but I was desperate I was in so much pain..then one day I laid down and MELTED into the floor, and have not slept on a mattress since..I feel so amazing when I get up, even if I am stiff a bit, in minutes I feel great! I had no idea how bad I felt before, I will now be single forever lol.

[@MochaHammy]

I appreciate this very genuine comment.

[@hubbellrowe9012]

You don't have to be single dude. You can buy a shikibuton, which is a 2-3 inch thick floor mattress used traditionally in Japan, for 100-250 dollars on Amazon. Using a thin, Asian futon like this should not be too different from sleeping on the floor, and I am sure that most women, if they like you, would not be too turned off by a guy who uses such a mattress for the sake of improving his health. At anyrate, I think that the use of some kind of mattress, such as a Shikibuton or foam mattress topper with proper bedding and covers, would be much more acceptable to a woman than simply sleeping on the floor. I think that most could get over the use of an unconventional mattress if they liked the rest of the package. I think you are right in implying that having them sleep on the floor with you is probably a bridge too far. Some kind of thin, very firm mattress like a shikibuton is the best compromise I can think of.

I slept on the floor last night, my air bed went down. I had been asking the Lord to heal, my body. I initially, had a hard time going to sleep, on the floor. I kept waking up, in pain and rolling over. Nevertheless, I notice, when I did get up, my face was not swollen, and I could feel the bottom of my feet. I slso looked at the clock and noticed, that I had gotten a descent amount of sleep, without constantly, going to the bathroom. My left hip swelling had also gone down. I felt great. I can now feel the bottom of my feet. This Morning, I want to give God the praise, He works in mysterious ways. who would have thought, my healing, would come from laying on a flat surface,. To God be the Glory, for the things he had done.

First night sleeping on the floor. I feel like a new person. My mind always got rest while sleeping on a mattress, but I feel like this is the first time my body has completely rested. It’s a wonderful feeling. I just slept on the hardwood floor with a comforter under me. I might get a mattress topper to sleep on. Probably not right away though.

[@kirinwijaya]

I thought me sleeping on the floor is weird. Now I know there are other people who choose floor over bed. I started sleeping on the floor cos Im too lazy to convert my ikea day bed into queen size. I sleep on yoga mat, 2 pillows under my head (for my vertigo),cushion under my knee if Im facing up and pillow between my knee (for my sciatica) if I sleep on my side. I have been doing this for more than 2 years now.I no longer have back pain and sciatica pain. Im married. Only my husband sleeps on our bed now. I still sleep next to him..just on the floor😁

[@MissHilPaige]

I’ve been researching floor sleeping on a shikibuton for years now, and this past week I finally pulled the trigger when my parents were in need of a bed for their guest room. It started mostly as a way have more space to move in my bedroom and be more creative during the day, but it’s also turned into a good move for my well-being. I’ve had issues with sciatica on and off for years now, and a little over a week ago another flare up happened… I woke up from night three of sleeping on a thick yoga mat under a four inch thick memory foam mattress topper and I have felt this awake a refreshed in my adult life. My back has improved tremendously in the past three days. I was hesitant for a long time for fear of my friends and family thinking it was weird. However, I am totally over that stigma cause it’s worth it and tbh when I’ve talked to people about it they totally get it and want to try it themselves!!

[@gloriathomas2188]

@@HelloImAru I ended up using the futon on top of the mattress topper and I liked it. Bc my mattress topper was also wearing down. But it was kind of hard airing out the futon and it had a smell. I don't think it was dirty but it really absorbed the smell of the tatami mat on the floor. I also sweat and it's really humid where I live. I noticed that it would kinda retain the humidity. I also had a mild flea infestation so I had to get rid of it ;/. It didn't get in the futon but since I couldn't wash or clean it properly I didn't feel comfortable having it. So now I have a mattress for the mean time

Benefits of sleeping on the floor: just use a yoga mat to sleep on the floor without a pillow. 1. great relief form back pain. 2. backbend due to old age will not happen 3. muscles will become strong. 4. Deep and short sleep. 5. very important is the brain will work great, in the form of memory and intellect. 6. get relife from belly fat. 7. weight gain will not happen. I am 26, from my childhood I never used cousin bed. just sleep in the mat on the floor. Very important to know: 1. Sleep straight back on the floor. 2. it is an ancient way of sleep as mentioned in Ayurveda India.

So I have arthritis and sometimes when I need my back to get in better alignment I lay on the floor, only problem is I can’t do it for long because my arthritis can’t take the hard surface even with a 2inch topper, I want to make the transition, so I’m thinking a 6inch foldable mattress will get me there, but I worry that it’s going to be too much cushion and end up worse than my box spring with a 2 inch topper, perhaps a Thai mattress with my 2 inch topper? I really don’t know, and I really worry about wasting the money

[@cziegle3794]

I tried to search but couldn't find the answer online. Can you sleep DIRECTLY on a box spring? No mattress. Just a comfort memory foam topper - or layers of linens of you can't afford a topper-but NO MATTRESS. The internet didn't understand this research I was trying to do. If a box spring will hold the weight of a mattress plus your body, then it should be fine to sleep on on its own, right? I'm debating removing my mattress because it just is no good and laying down every linen we own - not literally. But I don't know. Please provide feedback. Would this be good or no?

[@TheSouthIsHot]

Did you ever try sleeping directly on a boxspring? That's what I'm contemplating. I was thinking the same thing as you that if a box spring can support the weight of a mattress AND the person sleeping on it, then I ought to be able to sleep directly on the box spring.

[@rld1278]

It's not possible to sleep on my box springs. Too much open space covered with some synthetic fabric parts of the body would sag into those spaces and cause pain on the supported parts. Putting a piece of Plywood down then the bedding would work though.

[@simpletools6805]

Floor sleeping is a loose term people who sleep on a tatami , futon , mattress topper ,thin foam mattress ,ETC they all call it floor sleeping but its really not floor sleeping is putting a bed sheet on a carpet or wooden floor other than that its just like a bed but the cushioning material is on the floor instead of being raised on a bed there is no difference between sleeping on a futon put directly on the floor or on a strong raised plywood platform bed the result is the same The most important thing is to understand your body needs in terms of cushioning material and thickness moderate weight peoble with shoulder injures cannot bear a firm mattress like a rebonded foam mattress they have to go for softer options on the other hand peoble with lower back injures like bulges or herniations have to sleep aligned (a straight line between ther head and feet) and this is the very reason there are about 7 grades of softness or hardness in most good quality mattress manufacturers also heavier individuals need firm mattresses if they want there bed to have any longivity to it as softer mattresses are designed for only thin to normal weight individuals if you want to go the diy route do it but understand your needs if you are heavy then go for rebonded foam with density of 80 to 90 5 inches thick then add a 2 inch medium density foam and finish it up with a layer of memory foam or soft foam or a fiber sheet if you are a normal weight individual this setup might be too much and you might want to replace that reponded foam with normal upholstery foam of course the foam has to be of high quality press on it and it should have a dense and consistent feed back some individuals love sleeping on cotton mattresses like japanese futons as it provides the most pressure relief if you like cotton then the futon has to be thicker if you are heavy and normal if you are a normal weight individual One thing to keep in mind any new bed or sleeping setup needs some break in time so give it time if you feel like the comfort level is not optimal And always protect your sleeping setup or mattress form your sweat and dead skin by using a waterproof mattress cover

Jamil Baig: Excellent question. I have not slept on the floor, but I slept on a very firm, brand new mattress for 2 months, mostly on my side. I thought everything was fine, but after 2 months I developed the worst pain in my upper arms, along with numbness all the way down both arms into my hands. Scared me to death and sent me to the dr. to be checked for everything. In the end no doctor had any answer to what was causing it. I finally made the connection myself -- it was the too firm mattress causing nerve impingement in both shoulders. So I don't think I'll be sleeping on the floor on my side or my back. I'm now sleeping on the same firm mattress with a 1.5" memory foam topper added on and a good cervical pillow. And feeling MUCH better.

[@TheDelmarvaRD]

Been floor sleeping for about 6 months now! My journey happened about a year ago now when moved half way across the country. We left the mattress and box spring behind and moved into our apartment, that was meant to be temporary, with a pretty nice air mattress. The air mattress was ok but after several months it began losing significant amounts of air and we would wake up sunken into the bed and sore. We eventually said screw it and started sleeping on the floor with an old mattress topper, blankets, and pillows. She is right when she says there will be an adjustment period; my first couple weeks my hips felt bruised (no discoloring though) and it was hard to sleep without anything under my hip. Now I can sleep any which way and be fine. My body adjusted. I likely don’t intend on this being permanent though as someday when we do find a home, we want to purchase a mattress. Always keep an open mind! Thanks for sharing!!

How should I pick a Chiropractor?

[@OnlyAnotherVideo]

I would say it depends on your needs. Chiropractors practice in many different ways. Some adjust your spine only, some utilize other forms of therapy in conjunction with spinal adjusting. Some focus on biomechanics and your bodies ability to move in space. Some provide acupuncture, dry needling, dietary advice. You can find one that does all of the above or find one specific to your needs. I would recommend searching up local docs, go to their website and look at their mission statement, or modalities of care. If you still have questions give them a call and I’m sure they would be more than happy to answer any questions!

[@leavesofdecember]

I think the word you're all looking for is FUTON XD there must be some statistics out there proving that the japanese don't have any of the rates of back pains and distorted spines that we do with our marshmellow matresses... and that solution sounds pretty expensive when you can just buy a futon for 100 bucs and if you feel fancy buy some tatamis. I had mine for over 9 years now and I'm absolutely happy. I was just recently thinking of getting and even thinner futon that I can roll up, but the one I have is pretty firm and even after years of flipping it over and turning it around. It's pure cotton with a layer of coconut fiber in the middle and people make fun of me for sleeping on a "wooden plank" hahah but what they say is true, when you get used to it you just cannot go back. Hotels and visiting friends is awful !! I usually wake up with back, hip and shoulder pain and it's just the worst. Once you get used to having your back and body properly supported anything else just doesn't make any sense, like why would you want to sink into your bed ? and dislocate all your limbs ? XD Oh yeah and a buckwheat pillow is another absolute game changer !! such a simple solution to all your neck problems !! because unlike a memory foam pillow, this one actually stays firmly into the position you put it and those can be endless! and what I did now changed everything, again, because I replaced half of the buckwheat with actual dried lavender leaves ! and you just feel like sleeping in a field of lavender and flowers ! and all of these are just sooo cheap by comparison it's just crazy.

[@yisroelnorman8767]

I’m sleeping on the floor tonight I just set up shop next to my bed I’m already feeling better

[@alexandraoster7872]

I'm overweight, 160 cm tall and 110 kg, and I do just fine sleeping on the floor. It took me a week or so before my muscles could relax and my spine could realine itself. Now I wouldn't sleep anywhere else!

[@GoddessBB]

I use to sleep on this Indian rug, over a carpet, and it was really the best sleep. my fiance at the time used to say the rug had drugs in it, lol, because as soon as he, I & our dog laid on itm we went straight to sleep. However now we have tile floor, and its th most uncomfortable thing, I don't have that Indian rug anymore though.

[@calvint3419]

What about the other aspects such as cold air, dust....?

[@jeremybriggs6951]

What about air mattresses? Is it good?

[@asisqueezylovediary6474]

Yes my matrass got to the the bad point so I tried to use topper instead but was too painful for me as belly sleeper . I sure dont enjoy soft matrasses I like them firm but supportive . I can't sleep on my back no chance. I recommend firm service to anyone and they are all surprise why lady like me non stop advertise firm matrasses that are well made:) people think firm matrasses are only for heavy people. Great video

[@dexterreid926]

I thought this video was about floor sleeping, not sleeping closer to the floor. I've slept on the floor with a neck pillow, and my legs raised on an ottoman while sleeping on a padded carpet. It is relaxing without a doubt.

[@gloriathomas2188]

They said that bed only had 2 in of cushion on plywood. I think they used that to show the position better but it simulates floor sleeping

[@El_Madroño13]

Literally I make a bed with 2 large blankets layered, an oval small pillow for my neck, and a normal folded pillow for my legs. DIY bed 😂

[@eatmoreeats9566]

That’s gangster bro

[@Willajem333]

Oh my, the similarity of the Dr.s expressions and the acting of the main character in the show Resident Alien is almost perfect. No offence it is just what came to my mind. Great tips anyways. Thank you.

[@fearless6947]

I got rid of my neck hump by sleeping without a pillow

[@annaleonie2731]

He says right upfront 'I've never considered the topic,' There's a clue there.

[@amark8786]

Wow his voice

[@pradeepm1600]

I have been sleeping on floor from 23 years

[@jpsc1316]

I am facing back pain issues? Do you suggest to sleep on Marble floor or use some talai or Yoga mat?

[@pradeepm1600]

​@@jpsc1316 Better if u use Yoga mat.

[@siddharthjain6340]

Yeah but here we are talking about doing it out of choice. Not poverty.

[@MohsinRaza-lf2ub]

But i have a risk if i sleep on floor. There is risk of getting insect in my ear after sleeping. For example , centipede etc. What is solution for that???

[@pradeepm1600]

@Mohsin if you have such fear then you can put cotton balls in your ears while sleeping

[@retardednibba7794]

I just like sleeping on the floor in general. Is something socially unacceptable with that?

[@KPenceable]

Yeah... people are really weird about beds, I really wish I understood why. Like my friend was begging me not to keep my bed for some reason...

[@drweetabix]

Some pillows with a good mattress topper on top of them and a memory foam pillow works for me.

[@chetanshinde6835]

Thank you mam Great content 👍❤️

[@evangelinev1370]

Simp! The man was explaining and answering more, meanwhile the woman was just asking questions. You should thank him too, give him some credit

[@yogiyoda]

Sleeping on your back is dangerous if you have sleep apnea

[@Aristomenis31]

Sleeping with sleep apnea is already dangerous. Just get the machine. This helps prevent sleep apnea because it improves your facial structure.

[@yogiyoda]

@@Aristomenis31 - It improves facial structure?

[@albertoluna1271]

Thank you!

[@marinjayden]

Welcome!

[@justagirluwu]

What about possible ants or roaches crawling on you or into your ears while you sleep?

[@JBZACK2001]

sure, but they can still climb when you're on your bed

[@BigSocksProds]

@@JBZACK2001 LOL

[@noname-bt9ky]

Idk sometimes in summer I just go to the floor and sleep way better

[@luffyichigo850]

I sleep on the streets Edit: It's a joke guys

[@soniaberi8044]

[@chloewarren2499]

And yet you have a phone

[@soniaberi8044]

Exactly.

[@MostlyFish21]

Grew up in the streets with no heart bro that's I pray to my carbon

[@capt_toad7890]

Chloe Noel phones normally don’t cost rent

[@bethmccall9254]

What if you sleep on your stomach, not back?

[@Helljumper7200]

When I sleep on the floor, my hands go numb when I wake up.

[@sisqueb]

Sleep is for rest, rejuvenate and repair.

[@iviewutoob]

I have a Purple 4 bed and I’m perfectly happy. Sleeping on the floor is definitely not for me.

[@marinjayden]

Totally not for everyone ☺️

[@spiritualalpha3039]

How do you like the purple mattress? I watch a purple mattress ads before every video.

[@kimberlyjennings618]

I have the Purple 3 and felt so much better floor sleeping on vacation lol after a few months thinking of selling it

[@Bernardlaurent]

Use to have a purple mattress at home now in a hotel and Jesus christ today was the worst couldn't even breath correctly

[@penelopeclearwater4454]

Been sleeping on the floor forever my dear friends and the cruel tuteledge of Pai MEI! Always Beatrix kiddo!

[@BlueHourProductions]

Lol! 😆 my wife. Slayed.

[@jezze1532]

remember floor sleeping is not for anyone. for me as a side sleeper and being normal size 175cm 75kg. its just killing my shoulders and my hips.

[@hghbryson6821]

Fire the lighting guy

[@Свободадляроссии]

Bringing on a chiropractor for medical expertise really diminishes your credibility. Why not get an actual doctor?
