Sleeping on left side of the bed 'makes you more cheerful and positive'
By Lauren Paxman dailymail.co.uk
Next time someone asks you if you got out of bed of the wrong side, you'll be able to give them an accurate answer.
Research released today has shown that there is such thing as a right and wrong side.
Those who have a tendency to migrate to the left of a double bed are apparently happier than their ‘right’ counterparts.
Start on the right foot: Always wake up in a good mood... by sleeping on the left side of your bed
The study of 3,000 adults found that that those who sleep on the left are generally more cheerful, but they are also more positive and capable of tackling heavy workloads and a stressful day ahead.
More than a quarter of people who snooze on the left side of the bed feel they have a really positive outlook on life in general, compared to 18 per cent of right-side sleepers.
The upbeat morning mood of ‘lefties’ may also go as far to explain why more than half of them refuse to swap sides with their other half.
Almost a quarter of the nation is convinced there is a wrong side of the bed and more than 75 per cent of Brits are so stuck in their sleeping routine that they would find it strange to sleep on the other side of the bed.
Two-thirds of those who doze on the left reckon they are calmer than their partner in a crisis. They also tend to have more confidence and for this reason are more likely to be in permanent employment.
Not budging: The upbeat morning mood of 'lefties' may also go as far to explain why more than half of them refuse to swap sides with their other half
In addition, 31 per cent of ‘lefties’ love their job compared with just 18 per cent of ‘righties.'
However it is not all bad. Those who sleep on the right side of the bed tend to earn more than their left equivalents.
Claire Haigh spokeswoman for Premier Inn, who commissioned the research, said: 'The research clearly indicates a pattern between which side of the bed you sleep on and the mood you wake up in.
'Left sleepers are more cheerful, appear to enjoy life slightly more and have a more positive attitude to the day ahead than right sleepers.
Q:
Do you believe the concept that sleeping on left side of the bed makes you more cheerful and positive'?
Could sleeping patterns link to happiness?
Deep sleep: how much do you need?
How can get a good night sleeping?
How to become more cheerful?
What do you think the idea that people who sleep on the right side of the bed tend to earn more than their left equivalents?

Taiwan sports commentator dies in Switzerland by accompanied suicide
TAIPEI (Taiwan News) – Retired sports news anchor Frank Fu (傅達仁) passed away at the age of 85 in Switzerland Thursday through accompanied suicide.
After being diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer last year, he joined the Swiss organization “Dignitas” and planned his euthanasia for months. After a first visit to the group last November, he postponed a decision to spend more time with his son, and later waited until after the young man’s wedding.
Fu returned to Switzerland on May 30 and arrived at the Dignitas site in Zurich accompanied by five relatives and friends Thursday morning local time, the Apple Daily reported.
Later, his wife emerged to tell reporters that at 6:58 p.m. Taiwan time, “Frank Fu no longer breathed and his heart no longer beat, he has left this world,” the newspaper quoted her.

What is a mercy killing?
Question: "What is a mercy killing?"
Answer: “Mercy killing” is “the act of putting a person or animal to death painlessly or allowing them to die by withholding medical services, usually because of a painful and incurable disease.” Mercy killing is also referred to as "euthanasia."
The Greek word euthanasia translates to “good death,” making it and mercy killing terms that can be comforting in the face of difficult medical situations. When any person, especially a family member or close friend, is experiencing pain, mental degeneration, or other adverse condition, our instinct is to relieve the person in any way possible. Sometimes, this desire to alleviate pain can become so strong in the caregiver or patient that it overrides our deeper impulse to preserve life and survive.
This struggle between the desire to end suffering and the desire to survive is not new to humanity. In fact, one of the oldest stories in the Bible tells of Job’s longing for death in the midst of his suffering. Job laments his life, even requesting God to kill him rather than allow his pain—emotional, physical, and spiritual—to continue (Job 6:8-11). Most pertinently, Job declares, “I prefer strangling and death, rather than this body of mine. I despise my life; I would not live forever. Let me alone; my days have no meaning”
