You may have probably heard or read somewhere that lack of sleep is likely to be tied up with obesity and today we find an interesting highlight that may sort of explain the whole issue. Ordinarily, lack of sleep may make you think you are forced to eat less with the notion that you would prefer to sleep than eat. But an experiment proved otherwise.
Apparently the trick was done using some photos of food on 12 normally weighted men. They did not sleep and after some scans showed a high level
Hardworking people who need to take naps to remain proactive when in the office will surely welcome this inflatable pillow tie. Rather than satisfy yourselves with your hands or maybe even some books to use as pillows, get better short sleeping spells with this handy pillow tie once break time comes.
While the pillow tie does have some limitations as far as enjoying the perks of an actual pillow, this is one that will do for the short duration of sleep you may embark on. The Inflatable Pillow Tie c
Being assigned to the midnight shift of any organization may be something an employee may not necessarily like but still, there are duties to be done. One occupation that has had its share of problems would be that of being an Air Traffic Controller. We had heard of one instance where people of this nature fell asleep on accident but it seems the latest is that this one fell asleep on purpose.
This is about an air controller at Knoxville’s McGhee Tyson airport who fell asleep for 5 hours last Fe
Here is another study that should let you know why naps shouldn’t be overlooked. The study was conducted at the University of California which found that sleeping before learning something is just as important as sleeping for about 100 minutes.
In a study done on 44 volunteers, study co-author Matthew Walker, explained that the volunteers who took a nap before undergoing a memorization test ended up with higher test points than their counterparts who did not take a nap.

It seems to be a mask and a pillow rolled into one but the Wrap-a-Nap (WAN) pillow does serve its purpose. This is a makeshift long-pillow that hugs your head with gentle pressure, giving you the relief of complete darkness, soft muffled noise and 360 degrees of pillow protection.
This odd-looking pillow should be great for taking good naps and is made of plush minky fleece and squishy polyfill. A Velcro fastener helps keep it all together, allowing variation in fit and pressure.

This is a pillow and somewhat like a sleep mask rolled into one. This is called the Wrap-a-Nap, something you can also take with you when you are on the go and have a hard time going to sleep. It is defined as a creative pillow and earmuff combo blocks out the outside world and ensures that any surface is comfortable enough to sleep on.
Especially for the people who have a hard time trying to get some shuteye, this is another ingenious device which should be cool to have. The Wrap-A-Nap removes th
Sleeping on the job seems to be imminent for most workers. In fact, a recent survey by the National Sleep Foundation shows that 30% of workers fall asleep while at work while 65% have trouble concentrating due to lack of sleep.
Ben and Jerry’s in Vermont may have a solution in the form of a work place nap rooms made for employees. They allow their employees to snooze but is not a permanent solution for employees who lack sleep. Further, there is that possibility that employees may abuse such a privilege.
A pillow that is hidden into a tie. Who would go for it? The employees of course!
As more people seek a comfortable and relaxing way to sleep, hide a pillow into a tie and nap better when break time comes. Though it may not necessarily be compared to a standard pillow, at least you don’t have to worry about sleeping on hard surfaces or using your arm as a temporary cushion when sleeping time comes.
The Pillow Tie is available in over 60 ‘stylish’ de
There is a new product you should watch out for after the Consumer Product Safety Commission announced a voluntary recall for Nap Nanny Portable Baby Recliners by Baby Matters LLC of Berwyn, PA.
The product was designed for sleeping, resting and playing and includes a foam base with an inclined indentation for the infant to sit, along with a fitted fabric cover and a three point harness. The first generation model does not have “D”-rings for the harness.
Apparently there are reports that
It certainly does help to carry something even in naps or sleeping and now a study from the Centre for Sleep Research at the University of South Australia proves that dreams can be a good boost to the learning curve. It has always been believed that sleeping after a learning task can help them perform better, something that may be attributed to being able to relax and recalling the last things you did prior to dozing off.
To test their theory, the researchers taught people how to locate a speci
