How to learn to sleep on my back?

@nhbfan
I'm not comfortable in bed anymore. I end up on my sides and then wake up because my hips hurt so I sleep in a recliner so I'm virtually always on my back.
I know it's not the ultimate solution but it works for me.
Good luck finding a remedy,
Jake

try a bolster (neck-roll , Nackenrolle)

It might help to situate your wish with some context. Why do you not wish to sleep on your side, and why do you wish to sleep more on your back (AKA 'supine')? Unless there is pain or indigestion involved (GERD), sleeping on one's back is generally a poor choice for long, particularly if you have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

I am learning to sleep on my back because I now have a leg elevation pillow. I have pitted edema. It is getting easier.....

They should make a single body wedge device to stop you from rolling over. Everything I've seen so far is strategically placing pillows in several place.

you must roll over. It's uncomfortable to
sleep the whole night in the same position.
Bones and tissues and muscles start to hurt a bit.
At least for some minutes you want to get another position.

I read that people typically change positions between 10 and 40 times per night while sleeping, called combination sleeping. 50% to 70%percent of people sleep on their backs which increases snoring and sleep apnea. However, the number of times people change positions decreases with age, and older adults tend to prefer sleeping on their right side. I find sleeping on my back the most comfortable since I have gotten older even if it is in a recliner.
Take care,
