Of course, now that it is warmer, I just get up and do the stretches on the floor...

I was thinking the forward bend like the one in Slim and Six and trying my best to figure how to do that one in bed (short of standing up on the mattress) with covers in place. My mind just couldn't go there and God knows what DH would think if I started rooting around doing "supine forward bends" in he middle of he night in bed!!! |

Laura, I'm so glad you posted this! In the last few months I've had a bad night at least once a week so last night I tried your suggestion. When I woke up at 4 am I was able to go right back to sleep! Woo-hoo! Normally I'm awake and tossing for 1-2 hrs. It may not be a sure fix every time but so far so good!

I am very intrigued. So how long do you do this? You get up, say, and do a swan dive and just hang for a while? Or is it better to do several repetitions, as in standing sun sals?
I am a terrible insomniac, so ANY suggestions are welcome!
