What is the proper way to sleep?

With the eyes closed: Sleep patterns may vary from individual to individual, and recommendations for positions may depend upon any physical conditions or ailments. People who have TMJ disorders should avoid sleeping on their stomach. People who snore should avoid sleeping on their back. People with reflux disease may have to sleep with their head elevated.

Sleep hygiene: Keep a good sleep hygiene that can improve your ability to fall asleep and stay asleep. The best sleeping position is either on the back or the side. Both positions support the spine and the neck and helping to prevent injuries in the future.
