Premium Sleep Health

Do you have trouble going to sleep and staying asleep at night?  If so, this is not surprising.  According to studies from the Mayo clinic and other facilities, more than 3 million people suffer from insomnia each year. Depression, stress and anxiety are some things that can cause insomnia.  People who suffer from this condition often have trouble falling asleep and do not feel well rested when they awake.

There are some habits that can help treat insomnia.

1. Stick to a regular sleep schedule.  You should go to bed and get up at the same time everyday.

2. Don't nap during the day.  This can make it hard to fall asleep at night.  If you absolutely have to have a nap, try to limit it to 30 minutes; and take it before 3 pm.

3. Limit caffeine, nicotine and alcohol.  Don't drink caffeine within the 8 hours before your bedtime.  Nicotine is a stimulant, and alcohol can help you fall asleep, but it interferes with the quality of sleep that you get.

4. Avoid eating late.  Don't eat heavy or rich foods within 2 hours of bedtime.

5. Get regular exercise. Get in the habit of exercising for 30 minutes or more each day.  Over time, this will help you rest better.

Tips for saving time in the morning

Here are a few tips and shortcuts that can help you get out the door a little earlier in the mornings.

* Try a wrinkle releaser instead o ironing, or iron at night.

* Make a to do list each night for the next day.  This could also help you sleep better, because you will go to bed with less on your  mind.

* Go ahead and pick your outfit for the following day the night before.

* Know what the weather is going to be like the next day.  This will help you choose your outfit for the day.

* Another good idea is to have your outfits planned for the whole week.  You can label your hangers with the days of the week to keep your outfits organized.

* Prepare lunch for your kids and yourself ahead of time.  Eating a lunch that is prepared at home will not only save you time but it will also save you money.

* Drink a glass of water as soon as you wake up.  This will boost your energy and help your body wake up.

* Go to bed at the same time each night.  You tend to rest better when you follow a routine.  Better sleep can be better than more sleep.

* If you workout in the mornings, go to sleep in your workout clothes.

* Brush your teeth in the shower.

* Set your coffee maker to start brewing 10 minutes before your alarm goes off.

* Place your keys on top of anything that you don't want to forget in the morning.

* Avoid hitting the "snooze" button. If you drift back off to sleep, you will restart your brain's sleep cycle.  This will cause you to be even groggier when you get out of bed.

Love Your Body at Any Age

I just finished reading an article that I really enjoyed. The article is in Ladies' Home Journal and the title is "Size Doesn't Matter. Confidence Does."

The article showcases women between the ages of 25 and 60 posing in their underwear.  The women are all difference colors, shapes and sizes. Some of theses ladies would like to lose a few pounds.  One in particular wants to gain a few pounds and get her curves back. And others are very satisfied with the way that their bodies are shaped.  The one things that all of these ladies has in common is confidence.

No matter what body type they have, they feel good about themselves and are not ashamed.  Some of them say that they have tried all kinds of diets and pills in the past with no success.   One lady in particular who is a little on the heavy side says that she does yoga, walks, and eats more natural foods and has learned to be comfortable with her curves.  Her doctors also says that all of her numbers are fine. This proves that it is more important to be healthy than to be skinny.  

Each lady focuses on the things that make their body great instead of focusing on their flaws.  This article is very inspirational to me and hopefully a lot of other women.  I think that we should learn to love ourselves and feel good about our bodies.

All of the ladies in the article look beautiful no matter what size they are. I hope that everyone reading this realizes the same thing about themselves.
