If you suffer from sleep deprivation -- and 48% of Americans do -- this infographic on the best sleeping positions will hopefully come in handy.

Instead of turning to medicinal or therapeutic options, the chart on the best sleeping positions promotes changing the way you sleep instead. It covers the common ones, including on your back, side and stomach. The chart also discusses sleeping in the fetal position and sitting up. Each position also has an added tidbit for you to consider, like [pillow support](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infrared-dream-pillow).
