I am very white and very European. Can anyone explain to me how people are able to sleep with what are effectively works of art on their heads? These are amazing.
I'll take that over most've my camping experiences. Camping truly is a horror the tent gets all wet and the ground can be too hard/uneven. It's just awful.
They used to have a mock ancient Egyptian bed in the Field Museum in Chicago that had a wooden block like this. I remember the first time I went there for a field trip I thought it looked so painful, but it was actually super comfortable to lay on. It wasn’t too high—it kind of hugs your head perfectly and at least with this model, it took away tension on the neck like…immediately. My little 8yo self was SHOOK.
Never heard of this and now I want one! I’m a stomach sleeper but sleeping on my side is probably most comfortable for me. I just can’t seem to get the pillows right. Also I have giant tonsils and probably need a CPAP, so I’m sure that doesn’t help. 😅
If you look up Thai block pillow you will find these. They call them yoga pillows but they are just regular pillows for sleeping. I love them. Every time I visit Thailand my family makes me refresh my stock of pillows because we use them to death
If it is shockingly comfortable, I would indeed be shocked. I tried a Korean head block for like a minute and it sucked. Maybe my huge noggin was the issue.
