Sleeping Directions

Few months back, I was suffering from NIGHTMARES. Sounds scary? Yes, they were scary. It kept happening for 3-4 days. So many unpleasant thoughts came to my mind regarding the cause of all this. 
Next day, when I woke up around 03:00 - 03:30 AM in night due to the same reason, my mind suddenly thought; it could be b'coz I changed my sleeping direction. I quickly googled it on my mobile and was relieved to know (thanks to the power of internet) that this could possibly be the reason. And, effects could be seen just after that. Everything was fine since then. :)
So, I thought of sharing an article on Sleeping direction which I found, hoping that it could be helpful and useful to some:

Sleeping while having Head to: 

North:

• Never sleep with your head pointing to the north and feet pointing to the south. 
• According to Vastu, Dead bodies are kept in this direction. They strongly opposes this direction of sleep.
• Brings terrible dreams, disturbed sleep and negative vibrations while you sleep which will lead to irritation, frustration and emotional instability affecting your physical and mental health. 
• Scientific Reason:  The blood in the body contains iron, making the body a magnet with the head being North Pole and feet the South Pole. When you sleep with your head to the North, these two positive polarities repel each other, disrupting the flow of blood and affecting your sleep and health. 

South:

• Vaastu highly recommends this direction while sleeping.
• It provides sound sleep & health and increases the wealth and prosperity. It helps to have better will power and a calm mind.

Best Sleeping Direction

East:

• Vaastu advice consultants to plan the children’s room in such a way that their sleeping direction comes out to be east. As East is the direction of knowledge and enlightenment. 
• It enhances memory, health and spiritual inclination which leads to higher concentration and retention power. 
• Scientific Reason: Early morning Sun’s rays are proved to be beneficial to one’s health. It helps production of Vitamin-D  which helps in absorption of Calcium and Phosphates. This in turns helps better brain development.

West:

• It is not advisable to sleep in this direction.
• It might cause disturbed sleep or illness or violence feeling.
• Its good for people who do not permanently reside in the house, like guests.
