If you sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You usually believe people. You don't like to make others unhappy, so you never express your real feelings.
If you sleep on your stomach, you always worry a lot. But you're satisfied with your life. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you curl up (卷曲), maybe you often shy and nervous. You don't like meeting people. You like to be alone.
