In this video, Chris Prokop interviews Dr. Artour Rakhimov. The question addressed is, “How can we avoid sleeping on the back?”.
One such technique for preventing
sleeping on the back is attaching a tennis ball to your back. The
discomfort of sleeping on your back prevents you from sleeping in the
supine position. While having a backpack on during sleep would keep
you on one side, but it would prevent you from moving around. Moving
around during sleep is beneficial because it allows circulation.
Another technique is to take a scarf
about a meter and a half long and making a knot with it on your back.
This would prevent the ingrained habit at night time of moving back
into the supine position.
Find other details for prevention of
supine sleep on this page “Why and How to Prevent and Stop Supine
Sleep (on the Back)”:of NormalBreathing site
http://www.normalbreathing.com/learn-6-prevent-sleeping-on-back.php.
The Spanish version of this page is “Por qué y cómo prevenir y
parar de dormir en forma supina (boca arriba)” -

Sleeping on the back is very common in
hospitals and it occurs in 90% of people with severe health problems.
Breathing retraining students with over 30 seconds on their CP test
naturally do not sleep on their back. They will sleep on their chest,
left and right sides. For people that have their heart on their left
side and if they sleep on their left side or their chest, they will
have a higher result on the CP (control pause) test. While sleeping
on their right side, will give them a slightly lower level on the CP
test.
Preventing sleep on the back is taught
to NormalBreathing students. Additionally, the sleep quantity of
students naturally decreases over time.
Research undertaken by Dr. Buteyko and
about 200 doctors found out, sleeping in the supine position is the
worst position for breathing. 25 Western studies determined the same
results from their research. When laying on the back during sleep
there is about a 30% drop on the CP test.
Proper sleep positions and preparations
before sleep are a fundamental part of the NormalBreathing teaching.
Sleep positions can be a key part of what is holding your oxygen
levels lower as measured by the CP test. The MCP (morning control
pause) is the main parameter to assess your health. If your body has
a lower MCP result, it only has time during the day to improve or
maintain your health. This occurs in large part due to incorrect
sleep positions and in turn heavier breathing overnight.
Prevention of supine sleep also helps
to sleep less and better . More details in this Amazon book

NormalBreathing teaches breathing
retraining with various methods. This includes the Buteyko Method, a
method approved by the Russian Ministry of Health and one that is
growing across the world. It has been used successfully on over
30,000 people with cardiovascular issues, more than 100,000
asthmatics and many other conditions (sleep apnoea, bronchitis, liver
cirrhosis). In 6 Western randomized clinical trials on asthma, there
has been more than a 90% reduction in medication with the Buteyko
Method. While Soviet trials have used it on HIV-AIDS, hepatitis B,
radiation disease, metastatic cancer (a 6 times reduction in 3-year
mortality) and more.
Additionally, breathing devices such as
the Amazing DIY device and the Frolov device are taught on
NormalBreathing.com. The devices are found to be easier to use for
beginners.
