　　睡姿与性格

　　每个人都有双重性格 一种是展示于外的性格，另一种是隐藏于内的真实性格。在你醒着的时候，你不会表现你隐藏的个性，因为你能控制你的行为，但在熟睡时，你的睡姿会显示你真实的一面。当然，通常人们在夜里会频繁改变睡姿。最重要的姿势是你入睡的姿势。

　　如果你仰卧而睡，那么你是一个心胸开阔的人。一般你相信他人，易受流行时尚和新观念的影响。你不喜欢使别人感到沮丧，所以你从不说出你真实的感受。你很害羞且不太自信。

　　如果你俯卧而睡，则你喜爱遮遮掩掩。你心事重重，且容易沮丧。你很固执却没有野心。通常你为今天而不为明天而生活。这意味着你享受生活。

　　如果你蜷缩着身体而睡，则你很可能是个容易紧张的人。你的自我感觉不好，因此自我保护意识强。你很害羞，通常不喜欢与人交往。你倾向于依赖自己且容易受到伤害。

　　如果你侧卧而睡，则你性格平和。你知道自己的优点和缺点。一般而言，你小心谨慎且十分自信。有时你也会感到焦虑，但不会情绪低落。即使你的观点会激怒别人，你也会将它表达出来。
