Samuel's Rockford Apnea Symptoms Blog

Welcome Rockford Night Owls,

Life in Rockford, like other places in Illinois and around the country, is relentlessly fast-paced. In the course of a day, each of us makes thousands of quick decisions. Many of these are trivial: ‘Boxers or briefs?’, ‘White or wheat?’, ‘Paper or plastic?’, or ‘Call or text?’. However, some split-second judgments have significant consequences; ‘I just blew a tire, is my right lane clear to pull over?!’

If your brain is foggy because of sleeping insomnia, it is impossible to respond with peak mental capacities. The amygdala is the region of the brain that signals the body when there is a threat. If you miss just one night of sleep, the amygdala ceases to function normally. An impaired amygdala causes problems in other areas of the brain as well. Reasoning, speech and hand-eye coordination slow down. In fact, a drowsy Rockford driver can be as dangerous as a tipsy Rockford driver.

My name is Samuel Cooley. Like many fellow Alexander City yawners, I know how it feels to be sleep-deprived. My Alexander City friends who have trouble sleeping use phrases like ‘feet in quicksand’, ‘brain fog’ and ‘tapped-out’ to describe how sleepless nights make them feel. (‘Wilted’ is one of my favorites.)

If you are a Rockford night owl who has tried unsuccessfully to beat insomnia, you might be interested in two all-natural insomnia aids; Reposanex and 7Hour Slumber. These products are carefully formulated to help Rockford insomniacs fall asleep and stay asleep. They are safe and effective for short or long-term insomnia. Be sure you don’t let 934 sleepless nights progress into chronic insomnia.

You don’t need to be able to spell ‘Dark green amygdala’ to understand how important sleep is to our brains. Reposanex and 7Hour Slumber can help your brain get the recharging sleep it desperately needs.

See http://www.bestsleepaids.net for ordering details.

Hi, I am good night sleep blogger Samuel Cooley. 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 Dark green down comforter and then–lie there with my eyes wide open! Ugh!

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

First, I rid my Rockford 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 mini-van or the ten page application for my daughter to attend Bradley 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 Rockford 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 Reposanex, the non habit forming sleep aid. I believe it is one of the most effective sleep aids over the counter in Rockford. I have been using natural insomnia aids for 14. You don’t have to lie there with your eyes open. See http://www.bestsleepaids.net for a good night sleep.

Welcome

Sleep deprivation is not only irritating, it can be down-right dangerous. According to the National Sleep Research Project:
INDENT:

The 1989 Exxon Valdex oil spill, the Challenger space shuttle disaster and the Chernobyl nuclear accident have all been attributed to human errors in which sleep-deprivation played a role.

I’m not an oil tanker captain, astronaut or nuclear power plant worker, but I am a sleepy Rockford parent and small business owner–and I think these jobs are just as important. I don’t want insomnia to cause me to make mistakes at my Rockford home, Marbury office or driving my kids to their Rockford school.

I have been using 7Hour Slumber and Reposanex. (See http://www.bestsleepaids.net for more information.) 7Hour Slumber helps me fall asleep faster and sleep deeper. To me, a couple of hours of deep sleep is worth more than six hours of light, restless sleep.

Reposanex works naturally to synchronize your body’s circadian rhythms. It helps you fall asleep fast because it gets into your bloodstream quickly, unlike some Rockford sleep aids that take hours to work.

I don’t know what knocked my natural sleep cycle out of whack. Maybe it was cramming (partying?) all night during my University of Illinois college days. It could have been the two years I worked graveyard shifts at my first Goodwater job. Perhaps it was those groggy months when the children were needing assistance through the night. Whatever it was that got me into this frustrating pattern of insomnia, I am determined to get out of it. 7Hour Slumber and Reposanex are going to help me.

They can help you too.

Obstructive sleep apnea can be a life-threatening condition. Here at Melotrex, we want to make sure our Rockford 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 Marbury and Alexander City 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 Rockford 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 Rockford men but is also found among all age groups in Marbury and Alexander City. Marbury teens and Rockford children with large tonsils can also develop obstructive sleep apnea.

Melotrex 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, Melotrex 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, Melotrex can help you start your night out right by falling asleep fast. See http://www.bestsleepaids.net for Melotrex ordering info and more helpful sleep tips.

Hi, it’s Samuel here again sharing sleep news for Rockford insomniacs.

I have been conducting informal research on lack of sleep effects in Rockford for several months now. So far, I have tried Reposanex and 7Hour Slumber. This upcoming week, I am eager to compare Melotrex.

Melotrex works with your body to re-set your natural circadian rhythm. No, I am not a dancer, ‘circadian rhythm’ is the scientific name for your internal body clock. All animals and plants have a natural 24-hour cycle. Circadian rhythms disorders affect your physical, mental and emotional well-being.

Circadian rhythms can be altered by pregnancy, rotating shifts and jet lag. I don’t have to worry about being pregnant, but since I will be traveling away from Rockford on business next week, I will definitely need Melotrex. I will also do yoga and my special relaxation techniques faithfully while I am away. Since I am very sensitive to disruptions in my sleep cycle, I have a bedtime ritual that I use in combination with all-natural sleep aids to help me sleep.

For more information on Melotrex, Reposanex, , and 7Hour Slumber, see Martin’s Richfield Sleep One Blog. These sleep aids are available online for all Alexander City and Marbury folks who want to re-set or maintain their sleep/wake cycle for better health and improved immunity. I don’t know about you, but I am at least a little concerned about H1N1 and other viruses that are spreading in the Rockford area. To stay healthy, make sure you get enough sleep!

Welcome to Samuel’s Rockford sleep blog. Maybe it can provide some light reading for your sleepless nights if you are troubled by sleep problems. I am pretty tired (no pun intended) of not getting enough sleep. I plan to try some new Rockford sleep aids to see if they really work. I will give you updates here on my blog.

This week, I will use Melotrex and see what happens. I ordered Melotrex on http://www.bestsleepaids.net. I didn’t even need to leave my Rockford house to pick it up at a Rockford drugstore. Melotrex is relatively new but has been receiving some favorable reviews from long-time Alexander City insomniacs and Alexander City holistic health professionals.

In addition to reporting on my Rockford sleep aid results, I also plan to include some interesting facts about sleep in my Rockford insomnia blog. For example, did you know that people who regularly sleep less than five hours at night have roughly a 40 percent higher rate of heart problems (including heart attacks) than people who are able to consistently get eight hours of sleep? I have a few other risk factors for heart disease, so my chronic insomnia is even more troubling.

Here is another interesting but non-worrisome sleep factoid from the animal kingdom: Dolphins sleep while swimming using one half of their brain at a time.

I wish one half of my brain could man the controls while the other half curls up on the couch. Come to think about it, it is possible that only half of my brain is currently working. Perhaps Melotrex will help get the other half in gear.

Check back soon.

If you suffer from sleep issues like many folks in Rockford, you may want to start a sleep diary. You can keep track of when you climb into bed, when you actually fall asleep, how many times you wake up during the night and when you arise in the morning. In addition, you can record other factors that may be related such as medications, stressful events, number of cups of coffee, exercise, etc.

Then you can compare these factors. Analyzing any connections may help you better understand your insomnia.

By keeping a sleep diary for a month, I was able to isolate several factors that triggered a sleepless night in my Rockford bedroom. Some of those factors, such as caffeine consumption, are controllable. Other factors, such as the occasional loud barking of my Rockford neighbor’s dog are beyond my control. When I am awakened by barking or other unexpected loud noises, I take 7Hour Slumber. I can get back to sleep fast and the whole night is not ruined.

I am Samuel Cooley. I have used most sleep aids available in Rockford, both prescription and over-the-counter. 7Hour Slumber is my favorite OTC insomnia treatment.

By keeping a sleep diary you may discover how to alter your busy Rockford lifestyle to help you get more sleep. For the nights you can’t sleep despite your best efforts, try 7Hour Slumber. I know it has helped many Rockford sleep apnea patients, also.

Here’s wishing you restful sleep tonight.

Welcome

A few months ago, I read an interesting insomnia finding. Rockford 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 Rockford. My name is Samuel Cooley. 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 Rockford 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 Alexander City insomniac who is an elementary school teacher told me that she often had trouble concentrating while talking to her students. A Goodwater 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 Melotrex. Melotrex has helped me tremendously. As my sleep has improved, my health has improved also. You can learn more about Melotrex at http://www.bestsleepaids.net.

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

Once upon a time there was a Dark green car-drivin’ entrepreneur named Samuel Cooley (that’s me) who lived in Rockford, IL. Samuel’s father has had heart problems since he was relatively young and isn’t an example of heart-healthy eating. Samuel’s mother, who lives in Rockford, suffers from emphysema due to smoking. Samuel plans to be around to spoil grandchildren in twenty years, so is trying hard to break the chain of parents’ poor examples when it comes to health.

Samuel eats a healthy diet, sweats regularly at a gym in Alexander City and can often be found doing the downward dog at a Marbury yoga studio. Samuel has a strong immune system and, fortunately, hardly ever gets sick. (Don’t discount the obsessive hand-washing.) And in case you were wondering, Samuel doesn’t touch cigarettes.

This all sounds good so far, right? Here is the problem. In spite of diligence, Samuel often feels less-than-normal. Why? Insomnia. Not occasional sleeplessness, Samuel goes weeks with wide awake sleep time. Our poor insomniac has watched all the old movies that play on TCM–several times each!

If you suffer from insomnia, you know that it doesn’t matter if you have a heart rate of 20, a bloodstream free of cholesterol and can run a four-minute mile–you still feel lousy!

A friend in Goodwater challenged me to compare some good sleep aids to find one that works for me. I start tonight with 7Hour Slumber. I did some extensive research and found only positive feedback about this all natural sleep remedy. I will use it for a week and then try Melotrex to see which one is the most effective for chronic sleeplessness. Check back soon for the end of the story.

I hope to live (and sleep) happily ever after.

Most chronic insomnia sufferers in the Titus zip code have tried a variety of over the counter sleep aid products and methods in their search for a good night’s sleep. Sleep masks, earplugs, tempurpedic mattresses, gel beds, and white noise machines are some of the things that have helped many Alexander City folks in their quest for rest. If it cures insomnia, it is invaluable for sleepy Rockford insomniacs.

Some Marbury people who suffer from hard-core insomnia have resorted to prescription sleep medications. These should be used with caution. Prescription sleeping pills such as Lunesta, Rozerem, Halcion, Sonata, Restoril and Ambien can cause more problems than they solve. Most Rockford doctors recommend using them only for short periods of time. The risks of long-term use include dependence, dangerous interactions with other medications and accidental overdose.

Many sleep doctors in Titus recommend combining behavioral therapy with sensible all-natural over the counter sleeping aids. The new family of safe and effective OTC sleeping aids include Melotrex and Reposanex. There are many types of behavioral therapy for insomnia available in Rockford including hypnosis, biofeedback, somatic emotional release, yoga, relaxation therapy, and meditation training.

More insomnia natural remedies can be found at http://www.bestsleepaids.net. To safely treat your insomnia, order Melotrex and Reposanex, say “ohmmm” and then close your eyes.
