Insomnia Help -Finding a Solution

Saturday, November 15th, 2008

So you’ve come to the conclusion that you need to get help for your insomnia. True, insomnia can cause such negative results in your life, ending insomnia should be a priority.

Unless your insomnia is severe, simple things such as:

  1. Drinking Chamomile tea
  2. Play soft music such as New Age or Classic
  3. Take a warm bath with Lavender essential oil.
  4. Lower the temperature in the bedroom
  5. Infuse the room with calming essential oils
  6. Refrain from alcohol and caffeine
  7. Increase activity during the day
  8. Use the bed for sleep only. No paying bills or being on the laptop in bed!
  9. Rein your mind in from worrying. No scary thoughts allowed while in bed.
  10. Have a consistent bed time
  11. No sleeping during the day.

…can make a difference.

If you need more help than that, other non-drug options are safe herbs and melatonin found in Easy Doze. This safe herbal blend is very effective in getting you to sleep. You can try it for free here. What we like about Easy Doze is that it is completely natural yet still is as effective as other chemical sleeping pills according to users.

Other non toxic and harmless help for insomnia involves your brain. You can use hypnosis tapes which can have some effect, and you can use audio using binaural beats. Binaural beats is a fairly new science that involves using a tone in one ear, a different tone in the other ear in order to produce a desired frequency of brain wave such as the brainwave pattern of sleeping. I have used binaural technology for years to induce deep meditation so am well aware of the effectiveness of the sound technology.

Binaural beats are harmless, gentle and very pleasant to use. It is a gentle way to go to sleep, and to stay asleep. I have spent many a night with my light weight headphones having the most delicious deep sleep. While I am a hypnotist I have to say I do prefer the binaural sound technology over hypnosis for this purpose. Give it a try, you’ll be most pleasantly surprised.

Now, let’s look at something very interesting and that is your brain waves. Do you know that when you are asleep versus being awake there is a difference in the frequency of your brain waves? That if your brainwaves are that of being wide awake that you can not go to sleep?

Insomnia Cures: Are They Safe?

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

Insomnia is one of the most common health problems in the world today, especially in industrialized countries such as the US and Canada. Go to any drug store, and you’ll find all sorts of over the counter products addressing the problem, and promising to make your sleeplessness a thing of the past. And that’s just the beginning.



Turn on any television channel on any random evening, and you’re likely to be bombarded with commercials for prescription pills being touted as insomnia cures. Hundreds of millions of dollars a year are spent advertising these products. Should you use them?

That’s a decision every person has to make for themselves, but here are some things to consider. First, many of these products are habit forming, which means that you’ll have to continue taking them in order to get to sleep, and if you don’t, your insomnia will be worse than ever. It’s rarely advisable to make yourself dependent on a drug, legal or illegal.

Second, almost all of them have side effects, many of which are unpleasant, and a few of which can be downright nasty. While it may be true that in most cases only a small minority of the drug’s users experience any of the side effects, you could very well be a part of that tiny percentage.

An option to prescription medication is to use safe and effective Herbal sleep formulas which can be as effective as medications but without the side effects

Third, a great number of people who use some of these insomnia drugs report that they either have trouble getting out of bed in the morning, or they feel drowsy all day, or both. Drugs have powerful effects on a person’s body, and it’s hard to compartmentalize these effects. It’s great if a pill makes you drowsy at bedtime, but terrible if you’re still drowsy at work the next day.

Again, whether or not to use prescription insomnia cures is a personal decision that only you can make for yourself. But given the above drawbacks, it would be wise to seek out some natural insomnia remedies before going the drug route. In fact, there are some natural solutions that many people find are as effective as prescription drugs.
