Transcript excerpt

Sleep on your stomach or your side? Let's show you what that looks like as an elephant and a unicorn. Almost broke my glasses here. Let's start with the elephant. If your head tilts more to the side, I think it's great. It's just when you tilt down, it gets a bit more challenging. I just had to keep readjusting, and that's why I'm not an elephant. I often put my head towards the pillow and it just doesn't work well for me. Now, let's do a unicorn. The tube at the top definitely gives you more flexibility to roll around. Some people though don't like sleeping on their side with this mask because the air does travel down on the side. But good, I can just stick my face right in the pillow. It's great. And I like to move back and forth in different positions, so this one works really well for me. Do you sleep on your side or stomach? If so, are you a unicorn or an elephant? Let me know.
