What do you mean you don't sleep with your head facing east and your feet facing west?
The reason for this is the following：
When people build houses, they will choose to build in the direction of north facing south. Such a house can maximize lighting and shelter from the wind. People in China are divided into yin and yang, and the mountains in the south and the water in the north are yang, and vice versa. Harmony between Yin and Yang is the behavioral characteristic of China people.
Now in the northern countryside, the same is true of the heatable adobe sleeping platform built at home. Most of them are north-south oriented, and east-west oriented houses are rarely seen, because the magnetic field of the earth is distributed at the north and south poles. If something falls asleep, it will be disturbed by some kind of magnetic field.
It has certain influence on human cells and physiological functions. Some people who sleep in the right direction may have poor sleep quality and unstable sleep, which may lead to insomnia and so on.
scientific explanation
The north and south magnetic poles of the earth are not due south and north, but have a certain inclination angle. At every point on the earth, the direction that conforms to the earth's magnetic field lines is not due south or north. Moreover, the earth's magnetic field lines are in the same direction, which will change all year round or day and night.
Some scholars believe that the human body can be regarded as a weak magnetic magnet, and it is best to follow the direction of magnetic field lines when sleeping. If the direction is different, it will be affected by the magnetic force of the earth, although this force is very small and individuals may not realize it.
It is worth noting that the horizontal tangent direction of the magnetic field lines is not due south and north, but has a certain angle, that is, the magnetic declination, so the so-called sleeping direction is not due south and north in a strict sense.
Since individuals come to this world, they will gradually adapt to the environment and establish a balance suitable for the local magnetic field. Sometimes, this magnetic field balance will be broken.
For example, sudden changes in the external magnetic field, such as a large number of sunspots and flares caused by the intense activity of the sun, will affect people's nervous system, the tension of the main part of the sympathetic nerve of the autonomic nervous system will be improved, and the condition of mental patients is prone to fluctuations. For example, traveling across time zones and moving can easily lead to sleep disorders.
However, the exact relationship between geomagnetism and sleep is still under study, and there is no conclusion, so it is difficult to draw the conclusion that "orientation will affect sleep"
