There are so many good reasons to exercise – heart health, weight control, ability to compete with others. Take your pick, there is usually a reason that appeals to you. However, the best reason of all to exercise is that it can improve the quality of your sleep.
If you have been experiencing severe insomnia or sleeplessness for some time and have been unable to get relief, you may have been recommended to attend a sleep disorder clinic. The very name of it sounds intimitading, but, as with most things that sound scary – the reality is very different.
Here’s some more information about sleep disorder clinics and how they work to help inform your choice.
I would not have believed it, but one of the stinkiest herbs I have ever smelled is also very effective as a cure for insomnia.
The Valerian Root herb has been used to treat insomnia for a very long time – according to some records, it was used as early as Hippocrates in 460BC. It was also noted back then that it has a rather unpleasant smell.
One of perhaps the more obvious causes of sleeplessness is tension. That feeling that you just can’t relax and feel ‘twitchy’ as you lie in bed trying to sleep.
As I mentioned in another post – the ‘trying’ part of that scenario is a problem, (check it out here), but this post is about the simple idea of relaxation and how you can do it.
It probably doesn’t come as any surprise that caffeine is one of the things we can drink (or eat) that has a negative impact on sleep and can cause insomnia.
However, what may be a little more surprising are the places (other than coffee) that you find caffeine and in what quantity.
