The Sleep Secret

As you know during the Holiday season, millions of people are traveling to visit loved ones.

But are you one of the thousands of people that once you reach this beloved destination, where all your family and loved ones gather to share memories and make new ones you find that you can not sleep?

Imagine yourself tossing and turning, looking over at the clock to see that only ten or fifteen minutes have past since the last time you looked at the clock.

Maybe it’s the anticipation of seeing loved ones.

Perhaps it’s sleeping in a strange bed, and room environments that you are not use to.

It could even be because of time changes.

Just a quick reminder that Daylight Savings Time; (In the USA) ends Sunday morning November 7^th 2010 at 2:00am

So, why do we even have DST, and how can it affect you?

You see, during the “energy crisis” years, Congress enacted earlier starting dates for daylight time. In 1974, daylight time began on the 6^th of January and in 1975 it began on the 23^rd of February. After those two years the starting date reverted back to the last Sunday in April.

In 1986, a law was passed that shifted the starting date of daylight time to the first Sunday in April, beginning in 1987. The ending date of daylight time was not subject to such changes, and remained the last Sunday in October.

The Energy Policy Act of 2005 changed both the starting and ending dates. Beginning in 2007, daylight time starts on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November.

Daylight savings time can affect the sleep patterns of millions of people annually.

Sleep deprivation, sleep loss, and the onset of insomnia are just a few of the affects.

Remember, It is not normal for a person to be sleepy at times when he or she expects to be awake.

So what can be done about this change in our sleep schedule do to the time change?

I recommend a sleep routine.

A sleep routine is a routine that you set up prior to going to bed to get your body, and mind ready to fall asleep. If you start doing this PRIOR to the daylight savings time, you just might save yourself not only a lot of grief, but a minimum of five to seven nights of tossing and turning do to the time change.

Ok, here’s what I recommend.

Let’s say your time you usually go to bed is 11:00pm.

I suggest at 10:15 to 10:30pm or (at least 45 minutes prior to the bedtime you have set for yourself) you start winding down. This means turning off the TV, computer; (Yes even facebook, sleep is more important) and start listening to some soothing music. (We have a track of music dedicated just for this on our Sleep Secret Audio.)

What this will do is start letting your mind, and body know that it is time to relax.

From here I suggest that at 11:00pm (or whatever bed time yours is) as you get comfortable in your bed, you insert your earbuds, or put on your headphones or maybe you have an mp3 player close to your bed. But either way, turn on track 2 of our Sleep Secret Audio, and gently drift off in to dreamland, cause your dreams have missed you.

You don’t have to suffer through sleepless nights because of the upcoming time change.

Greetings,

One of my loyal readers wrote me the other day and she told me she was having problems falling back asleep. Sometimes it was in the middle of the night, and sometimes it was after her husbands alarm went off, he woke up and went to work.

There maybe a couple different things going on here, so I will cover them.

Are you hungry? If so a light snack (couple of crackers and some warm milk) should suffice to squash the small hunger pangs.

Are you to hot, or to cold?  Simply, remove excess covers that make you hot, or maybe throw an extra blanket on if you are to cold.

If neither of the above how about a little easy, light reading. Nothing exciting that will get the heartbeat and blood pressure up. That will defeat the purpose for this exercise. You want something easy to read, and as you read, perhaps you will start to feel your eyes getting tired. They are probably getting a little heavy. At this point, just go ahead, close your book, turn off your reading light, and let your body and mind fall back into a nice deep sleep.

This little reading exercise also works good in the case of the spouse that might get up early and disturb your sleep.

I hope these couple of quick tips finds you dozing back off into a wonderful, peaceful world of sleep.

Hello,

What would it be like if you woke up one morning and found that your street, your town, and now your house was flooded, and more rain was coming.

Can you imagine that scene?

Well, that is what happened over this past weekend to my town here in LaVergne Tennessee, just 24 miles down I 24 east from Nashville Tennessee.

You see,our town, and Nashville included just went through the great flood of 2010.

70 plus cars were stranded and flooded and washed away on interstate 24, and some deaths have occurred.

Opryland Hotel, closed due to flooding. Downtown Nashville; flooded. Businesses lost.

Perhaps you saw this on the news, or read about it.

In my hometown of La Vergne many neighbors and people that I know have been devastated and have lost their homes and or businesses.

And this is the reason I am writing this post today.

Our resources are running low. Friends that I know that work for the local Rescue department have been working around the clock.

Their funds are getting critically low. They need some help.

Here’s what I am asking of you today.

Greetings,

Well, it’s been over ten days here in the states now. Is Daylight Savings Time still affecting your sleep?

I admit it, adjusting to it took me an extra day this year. Maybe it’s my age.

Another family member took an extra day or two. But we know the “secret.”

How about you?

When Daylight’s Saving Time goes into effect, the time change does more than make people late for appointments.
It can mess up their whole day by forgetting to adjust the time on their clocks. (I missed a tee time one year.)

Our internal clocks need an adjustment too, and sometimes that takes a little longer.

Because some people have an interruption in their sleeping patterns they resort to pills and drugs.

What if I could show you an all natural way to get your sleep back on track, and in the process “teach” your body and mind how to fall asleep whenever you wanted to. No worries about the long lasting affects of the time changes, or if something from work is bothering you.

Just pretend for a minute what a night of good old fashioned sleep would feel like.

Feels good, doesn’t it.

And what if I told you that this could be at your fingertips, and at the press of a button anytime you’d need it?

Interested?

At Sleep Secret Audio we have mp3 audio downloads that will help you fall asleep, fall fast asleep, and help you stay asleep throughout the whole night.

No pills, no drugs, no harmful side affects.

You can’t overdose on this sleep audio.

Which means you are getting a good solid night’s sleep, and your body, and mind is getting a complete sleep.

So, if you are tired of always being tired because of sleepless nights, check out our sleep audio at Sleep Secret Audio

You’ll notice a new you in the morning.

PS…Those night’s that I do have difficulty falling asleep due to things weighing on my mind, I use my own product, and so does my family. It’s safe and effective, isn’t it time you started using it too?

My good friend Mary McManus aka @gracefullady on Twitter where we met, was talking to me about how important it is for her to get sleep and rest.

Did you know she is a polio and post polio survivor, and a finisher in the Boston Marathon?

Fatigue is the number one symptom which she has to manage. She decided to keep a journal of her fatigue symptoms, ( I Highly recommend you do the same) to see if there was any correlation between the sleep and rest she was getting and the symptoms of fatigue.

Now while this may seem like a no brainer, many people do not pay attention to how they feel throughout the day. It is easy for the ‘tail to wag the dog’. People feel cranky, irritable, fatigued and so they reach for caffeine or chocolate or a quick fix never bothering to take the time to examine the root cause of feeling this way.

Mary began to notice that when she rested when her body said to stop, or took a quick power nap to refresh and when she slept well and for the number of hours she required, she did in fact have more energy throughout the day. She also noticed through keeping her journal that saying yes to a breakfast meeting and having to get up at 5:30 am even for one day, required a week of recovery time.

So she has decided to avoid early morning meetings and flights whenever possible.

She would not have this insight without keeping a journal and determining what her body needs to function at its optimal best.

Mary uses the Sleep Secret Audio to ensure that she gets a good night’s sleep and has the tools she needs to take power naps without waking up with that groggy, fuzzy, “where am I” feeling. By monitoring her fatigue levels as well as her moods, her ability to think clearly, and having the energy she needs to be her best through a ‘sleep journal’, she discovered first hand how crucial it is to get a good night’s sleep and experience restorative rest.

I just came across this short, but informative article from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and wanted to share the information with you.

Did you know that regularly running short on sleep can easily make a child increase weight? Researchers found that in a look at data from the National Institutes of Health.

Julie Lumeng of the University of Michigan compared the amount of sleep kids got in the third grade with their weight in the sixth grade. Her study was in the journal Pediatrics.

“Children who were getting less sleep in the third grade were more likely to be overweight three years later in sixth grade, compared to the children who were getting more sleep.’”

Lumeng says that, for each added hour of sleep, the risk of overweight later falls about 40 percent. It’s another reason for kids to get enough sleep. And, Lumeng says, no TV in the bedroom – it makes it harder for the kid to go to sleep.

Something to think about. Your thoughts on this post?

PS…if your child is having problems falling asleep at night, give them the gift of the Sleep Secret Audio. The mp3 sleep audio can be listened through their ipod as they lay down at night, and the peaceful, serene music, and the guided words will help them drift off to sleep, and stay asleep. This is an all natural, and no drugs or pills solution to sleep loss. Check it out at http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com

I recently completed analyzing a piece that promotes that not getting enough sleep is costing the Canadian economy 20 BILLION DOLLARS, YES 20 BILLION DOLLARS per year!

Read the full article here: http: //is.gd/elYJ

We have found one of their clarification on lack of slumber.

“Concerning 15 per cent of grown ups are afflicted by not getting enough sleep syndrome, meaning they’ve got problems good sleep a minimum of three nights a week. Yet another 32 per cent suffer from not getting enough sleep once in a while, meaning at the least once a month.
The remaining, 52 per cent, can be categorized as good quality sleepers. ”

That’s a numerous amount of people NOT slumbering!

The price of losing sleep and being deprived of slumber along with the loss of work and productivity is where the 20 Billion dollar
number comes from.

Notice, there are several ways to get your rest back under control.

Some of them organic, natural means.
Some of them consist of supplements or harmful drugs.

As being a guy that had sleep issues while encountering a divorce, allow me to recommend an all natural, safe method to get back into a
normal sleep habit;  The Sleep Secret Audio.

This is a very simple process, furthermore when learned, you can get to sleep each time, anywhere. I utilized this whenever I had a few incredibly demoralizing occasions and seemed to be needing power naps. Oh yeah, you can use these skills for power naps also.

Since the Sleep Secret Audio worked for me, I want you to know how to obtain  a copy.

Please visit http://www.sleepsecretaudio.com

Examine the site and it’s claims, and I hope the people in Canada are reading this also!

Appears like 48% of the people wishes they could have a great night’s slumber.

Just fill out the form below, and you can be relaxing and unwinding after ALL the gifts have been open.

My gift to you.

The human body is governed by an internal clock known as the circadian rhythm. In each 24-hour cycle, it makes you want to sleep when it’s dark and be awake when it’s light. It causes periods of sleepiness between midnight and 6 a.m. — the  natural time for humans to sleep — then again in the midafternoon.

But as a shift worker, you have to try to sleep when your body is telling you to be awake, and be awake during those dips in your alertness level when your body is telling you to sleep. And as you get sleepier, you begin to miss things you would normally respond to, resulting in careless and even dangerous errors. Additionally, sleeping during the day can make it difficult to get the amount of sleep your body needs. Some research shows shift workers average five hours of sleep per day, at least one to one-and-a-half hours less than non-shift workers.

Regularly getting less than seven or eight hours of sleep in a 24-hour period really can lead to chronic problem sleepiness and cause irritability, crankiness and depression. It also makes it more likely that you might fall asleep while driving. And the only way to correct the problem is to get more or better sleep.

Whether you work a regular day shift, or the night shift, you can see the need for sleep.

To fall asleep, and stay asleep and get all the sleep necessary, we recommend an all natural, no drug, or pill product like the Sleep Secret Audio.
