Sleep Health-Diagnosing Sleep Problems with Several Simple Steps

Sleep Health-Diagnosing Sleep Problems with Several Simple Steps

Mom helped then left

Guest written by our friend Sergio Chaney
My mom helped me move in all my stuff last month to my new apartment and I have to admit that when she left I cried. Just watching her drive away was the saddest thing in the world – all of a sudden I was totally alone in this big city and didn’t know a soul. It was a good thing I’d gotten directv georgetownbecause that TV kept me company day and night for the last three weeks. I’m finally starting to make some friends at my new job but even still it’s not like my social calendar is jam packed. I love though that after I get off work and go for a run if I don’t have anything to do I just get online and surf the web while watching old episodes of Friends or Sex and the City on the TV set. It’s really comforting to have the extra noise and the drone of the TV even helps me fall asleep at night, if you can believe it! What a life.

Cooking Shows

Thanks for the article from Major Paul
I am so excited about my new purchase! After being a poor college student for four years and not having cable, I went on tvbydirect.com and got a great deal. I knew this would be my first purchase after getting a job. I am most excited about watching all the cooking shows. That is how unwind at night. I love to try a new recipe and I get most of mine from FoodNetwork.com. Now, I will be able to watch the episode and make that meal the next night for dinner! My boyfriend will be seriously happy about this investment because it will mean some really good meals for him. My favorite show is Everyday Italian. Probably because I love any sort of pasta dish. Giada makes the most delicious meals and most of them are easy enough for me to make. I also love how all the food looks on the Food Network. It is all so pretty and bright looking. Another favorite of mine is 30 minute meals. Those meals are very easy, which is good after a long day at work.

Blucig: The electronic cigarette to smoke for your health

There is not a lack of health problems today that are associated with cigarette smoking so it is really no surprise that several cities nearby have actually banned cigarette smoking altogether. Fortunately the percentage of Americans that smoke has decreased substantially in the past few decades but what about those that still enjoy a cigarette every once in a while and are are otherwise considered health conscious? Is there a compromise that would allow one to inhale fumes from a cigarette-like device, referred to as an ecig or Blucig and not jeopardize the health of everyone nearby?

Maybe this electronic cigarette called Blu can accomplish both:

• No Tar, No Tobacco, No Ash, No Smell
• No second hand smoke only water vapor
• Smoke anywhere, Bars, Airports, Offices
• Over 50% cheaper than buying cigarettes
• More socially acceptable than cigarettes

With the cost of cigarettes these days, to your bank account and to your health, Blu is an essential alternative for anyone who continues to smoke or knows someone who does. With a 1 year warranty and money back within 30 days, the only risk would be not trying this product! Here's to your health!

College Apartment

Written by my friend Teodoro Martin
I finally was able to get my own apartment off campus and by myself. Finding a one-bedroom apartment off campus was one of the hardest jobs of my life. I was starting to believe that they didn’t make one-bedroom apartments anymore but I found a notification in the newspaper just last week that said there was a one-bedroom apartment available just four miles away from campus and I jumped on it as fast as I could. I didn’t even expect the apartment to be so cheap, but thankfully it was because now I have some extra money to spend on procuring some furniture and getting a TV. My mom recently referred me to HD Tv sports new york and told me that I should try out satellite TV for awhile. Thanks to my mom, I’m going to be able to have all my friends over to watch all the programs that the other girls don’t get in the dorms. Now that my TV situation is figured out I need to go online and see if I can buy a reasonably priced couch.

First Child

Thanks for the post, Kathy Shelton
When I found out I was pregnant with my first child I was pretty Panicked. My husband and I were exactly trying, so I wasn’t prepared to become a mom just quite yet. I immediately got on our Internet from www.WirelessInternet.net and started doing research about exactly what to expect when you're expecting, and it turns out there's a wealth of information online just for women like me. I actually found a chat room for other first-time moms, which was really helpful for me since I wasn't able to talk through some of my concerns with people in the same boat. I also learned a lot about prenatal care, finding a pediatrician, as well as what to expect during the first year of motherhood. I feel much better now about the impending birth, and my husband and I can't wait to welcome our son into the world in just a few short months. Now I've just got to finish that nursery so he has somewhere to sleep when we bring him home from the hospital!

Easy DIY salsa dip for my friends and I

Guest post written by Carrie Holiday

Once I found out when the reunions for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills were going to be, I decided to invite some of my friends over who also love the show so that we could watch it together. We actually watch some other reality TV things like that together, like Jersey Shore premieres and finales.
I thought that I would come up with some kind of snack for us to eat while we watch the reunion show, so I went online to find an easy recipe. While i was online looking for that, I came across the website CLEARWIREINTERNET.COM and after I looked through it a little bit, I decided to sign up for internet service through it for my house.
I settled ! on making some salsa because I knew that would be pretty easy with my food processor. Salsa and tortilla chips is such a great snack anyway and everyone was really impressed that I made the salsa. They couldn't even tell! We’re also going to have a get-together for the second part of the reunion!

My husband absolutely loves the outdoors and I think he has more fun preparing for hunting trips with his friends than he actually does hunting. It is essential that he has all the right tools and supplies so he was suprised yet skeptical when we found an rcbs the grand mounting plate in the outdoor sporting section. He expained that this product saves time on reloading jobs and eliminates a hole studded work bench, something that he had been interested in for some time but could never find. The good news is that he did buy it, and it has been everything he had hoped for.

Unfortunately, there are times in our lives when we may need to look further than our friendly General Practitioner for medical help. When searching for a Doctor or Surgeon, one who specializes in their field, we want to obtain as much information as possible to ensure quality treatment, from diagnoses to recovery.

But don't take our word for it, meet Dr. Knight yourself!

You will be absolutely amazed at the extensive list of procedures and treatments done at the Institute.The Hand and Wrist Institute seeks to find the best solution for each patient. For example, one of the more common syndromes that we hear so much about today is Carpel Tunnel Syndrome which is often caused by repetitive hand motions. Symptoms can be pain, numbness and tingling. There are many treatment options however, the Hand and Wrist Institutes highly skilled Surgeons use leading edge, advanced techniques for Carpal Tunnel Surgery in Los Angeles .

Scrubs for Sleep Pros in the Know

I don't know about you but I remember going to the Doctor's office as a teen and noticing the frumpy garb worn by everyone that worked in the office. The women nurses especially, would have on shapeless white  scrubs but instead of looking savvy and approachable they appeared sterile and scary. Well, I guess they had to wear something to set themselves apart, identify themselves as medical professionals, right?

Well, maybe not. Fast forward-2011, Nursing Scrubs have come a long way and morphed the so called uniform - from frightening to fabulous. Don't be surprised when everyone in the family wants their own set. Seriously Stunning, these scrubs can be worn anywhere...with style!

When working as a sleep professional, it is important that your client trusts you and feels that you have the knowledge and expertise to assist him or her with a potentially seriously health issue. It is usually much more complicated than a a sleepless night once in awhile. Wearing scrubs from Blue Sky accomplishes this, creating a relaxed atmosphere that puts those who look to you for answers, completely at ease and at a price that is affordable!
Cheap scrubs for an atmosphere that thrives -Look to Blue Sky for all of your professional uniform needs!
May your dreams always be sweet! Naturally...

Protect your Mattress & Yourself! Bed Bugs Beware!

A mattress can’t be tossed in the washing machine, or dropped off for a quick scrub-up at the drycleaners. If you’re not using a protector, make no mistake – Your mattress is getting dirty! Sheets allow microscopic organisms to pass through to your mattress. Without a barrier, the gross sludge of skin cells, dust mites, drool, perspiration, bacteria, fungus and mold pass through and take refuge in the mattress.

Using a Mattress Protector creates a barrier between your mattress top and sheets. Skin cells shed during sleep are whisked away when the sheets are changed.

According to recent reports bed bugs infestation rates in homes, hospitals, hotels and school dorms have been steadily increasing since the 1980’s. These nocturnal nastys lurk in the dark folds of your bedding, or cracks of your walls, and emerge when the lights go down. 

Don’t let the bed bugs bite - vampire like, they suck up to 3 times their body weight of your blood in less than 15 minutes. The salivary secretion they inject to prevent coagulation causes your skin to swell and itch in an allergic reaction similar to that of flea bites. Think your bed is infested? Grab a flashlight, pull back the sheets and search for critters the size and shape of an apple seed.

This Natura Mattress Protector offers you the ultimate in mattress protection. We’ve combined Natural Silver Technology with wool to protect your mattress while providing you with a better night’s sleep.
A wool core sandwiched between a waterproof barrier and cotton top buffers pressure points and supports joints to reduce tossing and turning. Wool wicks away moisture (including any spills) to keep your sheets dry, clean and just the right temperature.
Natural Silver Clear Technology is embedded into the Natura line of Mattress Protectors. The NaturaProtect Mattress Protector is a barely there sheet-like barrior, with wetness protection on top and for wetness protection on both the sides and the top use the NaturaProtectPlus Mattress Protector. They both add another layer of protection from dust mites, bed bugs and other bacteria. Keep your mattress pristine and allergen free, and protect your investment with a NaturaProtect mattress cover.
You will be glad you did!

Going Green Gradually-Session 1-Start with a Little Pillow Talk

Let's face it-Going green is not a cheap or easy proposition! Most of us have to decide where we will start our transformation and then try to understand what shade of green we can afford and what is acceptably healthy and sustainable. Trust me, you almost have to obtain a degree in Organic Sciences to ensure that you purchase safe, real-deal, eco-friendly greenery, and even then, there is so much to learn.
So, to simplify things, go green in segments!  Let's start at the top:

Your Pillow! 

You may not think much about your pillow -- and, hey, you're asleep while you're using it -- but you could be breathing in chemical fumes, or being exposed to synthetic dyes and other toxins. Poly-fill and other synthetic materials, like polyurethane foam, are often made from petroleum derivatives.
Pillows are treated heavily with polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) or other brominated fire retardants, and, while that helps them not burst into flames, they can bio-accumulate in your body, and toxicological testing indicates those chemicals may cause liver toxicity, thyroid toxicity, and neurodevelopmental toxicity. Not something you want from the spot where you lay your head. Not in our Pillows!

Pillows also often harbor dust mites, and many people are allergic to their leavings, so finding hypo-allergenic options can also be beneficial for your health.
Now that you have had a chance to learn about some of the dangers that lurk beneath your head each night, we hope that you can find some healthy pillow alternatives.
Good first step! Next Post - we will talk about mattresses! So many options, which one do you need, and how do you know fact from fiction? In the next segment we will try and answer some of these question and present you with some healthy sleepsystem choices!

So Stay Tuned!

Need a little head start? Visit our site and sign up for our free monthly pillow drawing and you could win this incredibly green Natura Dream mate pillow on March 15th!

A Slice of Sleep Heaven for your Head

Or should I say GREEN sleep Heaven?! We underestimate the importance of that special pillow in our lives - the one we can not be without! If your in the market - and just not satisfied with your pillow talk lately  (soar neck, back, headaches) try the Natura Dream Mate!  

Remarkable bed of Talalay latex & wool covered with 100% cotton. Not only will your body feel better but you will no doubt benefit from the natural fibers that Natura is famous for! Inhaling chemicals all night will probably not do much for the way you feel in the morning - Talk about a hangover!?

And, for those of you who want the Sleeping Beauty version - Natura even has one with Aloe, appropriately named the Aloe Dream Mate. 

Rumors are that you can actually wake up wrinkle-free! So, try it for yourself and let us know! 

Dreams could never be a sweeter shade of green...
