discuss Ever slept on a mat?

[Zani]

I read in a documentary that there are places especially in Asia like Japan and Korea where people prefer sleeping on a mat instead of sleeping on a bed with foam. They listed having a sound sleep as one of the reasons for such decisions. Have you had the experience of sleeping on a mat? What was it like doing so?

There was a time I was sleeping on the mat. I was told it is therapeutic but now I have stopped using the mat. I now sleep on the bed. Reading this thread might make me go back to sleeping on the mat again because it helps massages the body before morning.

Could you state the changes that occurred when you were sleeping on the mat? Were there significant changes in the way you act during the day?

I have slept on a mat in the past when I participated in sleepovers and camping trips as a kid in my friends' gardens, but I never found it comfortable, and I always preferred a mattress for a good night's sleep.

I have heard some people say, though, that they prefer to sleep on just a mat and find it comfortable.

We had naps in kindergarten like that.

My old house had a Japanese tatami (mat) room, and it was quite comfortable to sit on and even take a nap on.

However, I don't think most people these days sleep directly on the mats themselves, or at least overnight. They will pull a futon (a thicker mat) out of the closet and use that as a base to give some more cushion.

Yes, sleeping on a mat gives anyone peace. Everyone should try it. So, all the best.

I remember that. I haven't slept on a mat ever since. I tend to sleep on a bed.
