Sleep. How can something so natural and necessary for basic health be so elusive to so many?
Surveys show roughly 60 million Americans are afflicted by sleep disorders. Disproportionately affected are women and people over 65.
Sleep changes as we age for a number of reasons. The body produces lower levels of melatonin, a growth hormone that governs our circadian rhythms and sleep/wake cycles. Insomnia is often a side effect of medication or of other health conditions. Sleeplessness could be the result of stress or worry. Or, it could simply be caused by the normal aches and pains of aging.
It stands to reason, then, that if you can make yourself more comfortable in bed, you increase the odds of enjoying the unique gift of a good night’s sleep.
Providing an extraordinary level of comfort, The Total Body Support Pillow cradles your upper and lower extremities, while cushioning and maintaining proper spinal alignment no matter your sleep position. Originally invented to help relieve fibromyalgia, it is an effective aid to getting a good night’s sleep.
Without a doubt, luxurious and comfortable pajamas play a part in ushering you into a restful slumber. For ladies, these Genuine Turkish Linen Pajamas are woven from the finest Turkish flax, renowned for its cooling breathability and supple hand. Gentlemen will appreciate a good night’s rest in these Irish Flannel Pajamas. Made exclusively for Hammacher Schlemmer in County Donegal, Ireland, this sleepwear is uniquely napped on both sides for luxurious softness and unequalled warmth on a cold winter’s night.
And if it’s a noisy environment keeping you from a meet-up with Mr. Sandman, The Authentic Sleep Sound Generator produces a soothing whooshing sound that helps block distracting noise.
