Inflation is Creating Sleep Problems
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung July 24th, 2008 in Health Issues, How to sleep better, Insomnia, Sleep Disorders, Sleep Issues.
We all know that thinking too much may eventually result into sleepless nights. At the rate that everything is going up these days, the only thing that perhaps is remaining is to see our salaries and daily pay go up. Now that is something to ponder on. But while we can wait all we want, thinking and even dreaming of when that would be, sleeping better is the least thing we can do.
Another thing that contributes to the growing number of insomniacs is that more people are now trying to get a second job. There is the traditional 8 to 5 job and hence getting another one will surely penetrate our required number of sleep. So if you get a second job for income, chances are you may not be close to the usual 8 hours of sleep.
With coffee to keep you awake, you may say it is a temporary setup. But once you finally get your back to normal (assuming inflation is out), your next step would be to see a specialist. Now you have to address you sleep problem and likewise get yourself sleeping back to normal.
It seems all these things will never cease. You just have to address them one step at a time.

Some Myths of Sleeping and Insomnia
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung July 17th, 2008 in How to sleep better, Insomnia, SLEEP News, Sleep Myths.
Sleeping is one of the things that people would love to do. But apparently, people have to discipline themselves and make sure that they get the adequate sleep recommended for people today. Apparently, there are some beliefs that many would agree to while others would consider as based on beliefs and myths. But myth or not, it remains that we have to manage ourselves well since in the end, lacking sleep will take its toll on us.
Here are some common myths of sleeping and insomnia. We may or may not agree with them but they are apparently related to how we perceive and understand sleep as a whole.
- Humans Need Eight Hours Sleep a Night: There are many ways of sleeping and few cultures sleep in eight-hour consolidated blocks like we do. In places like Bali and New Guinea, people tend to slip in and out of sleep as they need it, napping more during the day, and getting up more at night.
- Sleep Isn’t Just a Bodily Function: Sleep is a biological, physiological system, akin to the cardiovascular system, the nervous system and so on.
- Animals Don’t Have Sleep Problems: Insomnia occurs in animals and insects, too, sort of. Technically, insomnia is defined as a “complaint,” and since animals can’t complain, it’s difficult to measure in them
- Falling Asleep Is a Gradual Process. Nope. Instead, for most people, it switches on and off like a light switch. But for insomniacs and narcoleptics, the switch doesn’t quite work.
- Sleeping Less Burns More Calories. In the short term, yes, but sleeping less probably won’t help you lose weight. Lack of sleep suppresses our natural appetite-depressants, while fueling appetite-increasers, often leading to weight gain.

Business Professionals Develop Sleep Problems Due to Inflation
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung July 8th, 2008 in Dreams, How to sleep better, SLEEP News, SLEEP Psychology, Sleep Business, Sleep Issues.
Today, inflation is an obvious presence and for most of us today, it is apparent that we will be forever thinking and staying up late to think of alternative to survive in this world that has gone beyond borders. Businesses are faltering one after the other and for the modern businessman, unless you act quickly, chances are you will lose a lot of things including sleep.
The key towards good sleep is to be able to lay on your comfy bed without much to think about. But today, this is a rarity for the breadwinners as we enter an age where financial incapacity pushes us to act further. Apparently we all know that financial survival is something that we all think about everyday so don’t be surprised if in the end, another expense for sleep-related disorders and treatment will soon join our daily expenditures.
”It’s no surprise that professions in the industries worst hit by the credit crunch come top of the charts,” notes director of sleep, Leigh McCarron.
“We all know that money worries and job security are key drivers of stress which in turn, leads to significant sleep loss.”

Sleep HealthCenters Makes House Calls
0 Comments Published by Brian Yalung June 24th, 2008 in Health Issues, How to sleep better, SLEEP News, Sleep Apnea, Sleep Disorders, Sleep Therapy.
Sleep deprivation has been a growing pain and most people who are aching for alternative remedies and solutions to this growing disorder can heave a big sigh of relief thanks to the Sleep HealthCenters which have opted to take sleep disorder issues to the next level.
Sleep deprivation has been linked to other health issues such as obesity and heart problems and that alone has become a reason to take sleep problems entirely serious. With an elite group of specialists and providing home sleep testing, the sleep deprived can now expect better attention and diagnoses for their lingering obstructive sleeping problems.
Dr. Lawrence J. Epstein, Sleep HealthCenters’ Medical Director, noted, “Home sleep testing is a viable alternative for those patients who have had a comprehensive sleep evaluation and meet certain criteria, including insurance eligibility. Because untreated sleep apnea has been linked to health problems such as obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease, it is crucial that as many at-risk patients as possible be tested and treated. At Sleep HealthCenters, we continue to focus on providing expertise in every aspect of care for patients with all sleep disorders, from diagnosis, to treatment, to long-term management.”
