Buddy's Richmond Sleep Less Blog

Hi, I am good night sleep blogger Buddy Wenninger. As you have probably guessed, there are some nights when I simply cannot sleep sound. I brush my teeth, climb onto my swedish mattress, relax under my Jungle green down comforter and then–lie there with my eyes wide open! Ugh!

Before I take an herbal sleep remedy such as California or Melotrex, I try some of my favorite nighttime rituals to hopefully aid sleep.

First, I rid my Richmond bedroom of all the distractions. I can’t believe how much paperwork piles up in a few days. I don’t want to lie awake thinking about the car insurance premium that is due on my truck or the ten page application for my daughter to attend “California State University. I even close my laptop and take it out of the bedroom.

Next, I bargain with my sweetie for a massage exchange. I promise to give an incredible rubdown tomorrow night if I can get one tonight. Lavender or chamomile oil is the crowning touch.

Next, I meditate to the sound of the surf lapping at the shore. No, I don’t live on the beach, but I do live in a nice Richmond neighborhood near downtown. To hear waves, chirping birds or a gentle breeze rustling the trees, I turn on relaxing ambient sleep music.

If these things don’t do the trick, I pull out the heavy artillery. I take Melotrex, the non habit forming sleep aid. I believe it is one of the most effective sleep aids over the counter in Housatonic. I have been using natural insomnia aids for 11. You don’t have to lie there with your eyes open. See http://www.bestsleepaids.net for a good night sleep.

Obstructive sleep apnea can be a life-threatening condition. Here at California, we want to make sure our Richmond insomnia customers are aware of the symptoms and dangers of sleep apnea.

Persons with sleep obstructive apnea stop breathing intermittently during sleep when the back of their throat constricts and blocks the air. Many New Lebanon and South Lee people currently being treated for apnea were unaware they had it until their spouse noticed the rhythm of their breathing changed during sleep.

If you sleep all through the night but still feel tired and groggy during the day, you could have sleep obstructive apnea. Symptoms of sleep apnea are fairly obvious. Periods of breathing lapses, loud snoring and gasping for breath can occur several times during the night without the person remembering them the next day. To determine if you need to see a doctor, ask your partner or other family member to observe your sleeping. (Be prepared to be shaken violently until you wake up and take a breath!) If you sleep alone, you can record yourself sleeping to determine if you demonstrate apnea symptoms.

Many Housatonic people are diagnosed with sleep apnea every year. Risk factors include obesity, large tonsils, nasal congestion, and a deviated septum. It is most common in middle-age Housatonic men but is also found among all age groups in New Lebanon and South Lee. New Lebanon teens and Housatonic children with large tonsils can also develop obstructive sleep apnea.

California is a non habit forming sleep medication that is effective for non-apnea sleep issues. If you can’t seem to get enough sleep because you wake up too early, California is the natural sleeping solution for staying asleep until the morning. If your partner is currently using a CPAP breathing machine and the noise makes it difficult for you to fall asleep, California can help you start your night out right by falling asleep fast.

Mark’s Framingham Discussion On Sleep Patterns In Massachusetts

A few months ago, I read an interesting insomnia finding. Housatonic sleep researchers observed that sleep-deprived test subjects in a recent clinical trial got used to feeling tired. At first, study participants noticed that sleep deprivation affected their energy, cognitive abilities and mental health. However, after a few days of not sleeping, their tired state began to feel normal for them.

I suffer from insomnia and live in Richmond. My name is Buddy Wenninger. I have spent a lot of time studying sleep, well actually, lack of sleep. After reading about the study mentioned previously, I realized that my “tired” state had become my new “normal”. I talked to several of my Housatonic friends and co-workers. I discovered that many of those that reported having trouble sleeping did not make a connection between their insomnia and various health issues.

For example, one South Lee insomniac who is an elementary school teacher told me that she often had trouble concentrating while talking to her students. A West Stockbridge man who works in my office catches every sickness going around and it seems to take him an unusually long time to get better.

Actually, many health problems can be caused by lack of sleep. Prolonged insomnia should never be ignored.

If you can’t sleep, I recommend California. California has helped me tremendously. As my sleep has improved, my health has improved also. You can learn more about California at http://www.bestsleepaids.net.

Don’t let ‘tired’ become ‘normal’. Use California for good sleep and good health
