睡得香：在英国有超过一半的人是胎儿型睡姿，睡觉时会蜷成一团，如左图，这说明我们是一个焦虑者的国度，第二常见的睡姿是像树干一样的睡姿，如右图，这体现出刚强的个性。 <span word="Do">Do</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="sleep">sleep</span> <span word="like">like</span>

“渴望型”指的是双臂向前伸展的睡姿，占人群中的25%，他们大都渴望追求梦想。17%的被调查者睡觉时的姿势是“自由落体型”，暗示他们觉得自己无法掌控自己的生活。 <span word="The">The</span> <span word="position">position</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span

身体语言专家罗伯特·菲普斯告诉我们，人在睡眠时选择的睡姿惊人地反映出了这个人的个性。 <span word="Mr">Mr</span> <span word="Phipps">Phipps</span> <span word="has">has</span> <span word="identified">identified</span> <span

word="cent">cent</span>). 超过一半的人（58%）会采取胎儿型睡姿，膝盖卷起，低着头。菲普斯解释道：我们蜷缩地越厉害，也就是我们渴望的舒适越多。第二常见的睡姿是树干型（28%）。 <span word="A">A</span> <span word="straight">straight</span> <span word="body">body</span>, <span

word="Phipps">Phipps</span>. 菲普斯表示，笔直的身体而且胳膊和腿放一边，这样的睡姿明显反映出固执的性格，他们醒来时会比入睡时更僵硬。 <span word="Nap">Nap</span>-<span word="time">time</span>: '<span word="Yearners">Yearners</span>' <span

有25%的人是渴望型睡姿，手臂向前伸出去，这样的睡姿要么是在追求梦想，要么是在被人追赶。 <span word="Yearners">Yearners</span> <span word="are">are</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="own">own</span> <span

拥有脸朝下、手臂张开的自由落体型睡姿的人占了17%，这一类人对于自己的人生少有控制。从生理角度而言，这是最不舒服的睡姿。 <span word="Mr">Mr</span> <span word="Phipps">Phipps</span>’<span word="s">s</span> <span word="survey">survey</span> <span
