Relieve Insomnia with 5 Acupressure Points

According to the National Sleep Foundation, every week almost 60% of Americans suffer from insomnia-like symptoms. These symptoms include waking and not feeling refreshed, problems with staying asleep and the inability to fall asleep quickly. If you are experiencing insomnia-like symptoms, try acupressure for a good night’s sleep instead of taking sleep medication. Acupressure has shown to help insomniac sufferers fall asleep for longer and have a better quality sleep, according to a study in Milan, Italy at the San Gerardo Hospital.

 

 2 Acupressure points on the ankles:

The Acupressure Points (K 6 and B 62) between your heel and anklebones (on both sides) have traditionally been used to relieve and prevent insomnia. The acupressure point on the inside of the heel below your inner anklebone is called Joyful Sleep. Can you guess what to do to obtain joyful sleep? Just hold this ankle acupressure point while taking deep breaths for a few minutes before you go to bed.

4 Tips for Getting to Sleep Naturally

  • Gentle Stretching – Before you try to go to sleep, gently stretch your arms, legs, side-to-side bends, and massage your shoulders and neck.
  • Eye Stretches – With your eyes open, move your eyes slowly in a large circle – three times in each direction. Repeat this slow eye rotation with your eyes closed while breathing deeply. End by stretching your arms up and back as you take a few deep breaths.
  • Induce Yawning – Exaggerate several yawns, as you stretch your arms and legs.
  • Deeply Relax – Nestle comfortably into a very relaxed position. Take several slow, deep breaths as you enjoy relaxing. Focus on taking slower and deeper breaths. Let yourself completely relax.

(3)Sleep environment and bedtime routines that cause insomnia

 

Relaxation techniques for insomnia

(1)Abdominal breathing. Breathing deeply and fully, involving not only the chest, but also the belly, lower back, and ribcage, can help relaxation. Close your eyes and take deep, slow breaths, making each breath even deeper than the last. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth.

(2)Progressive muscle relaxation. Make yourself comfortable. Starting with your feet, tense the muscles as tightly as you can. Hold for a count of 10, and then relax. Continue to do this for every muscle group in your body, working your way up from your feet to the top of your head.

(3)Mindfulness meditation. Sit or lie quietly and focus on your natural breathing and how your body feels in the moment. Allow thoughts and emotions to come and go without judgment, always returning to focus on breath and your body.

Sleep deprivation and try acupressure message for better sleep

sleep deprivation and sleep disorders

It is estimated that 50 to 70 million Americans chronically suffer from a disorder of sleep and wakefulness, hindering daily functioning and adversely affecting health and longevity. The cumulative long-term effects of sleep deprivation and sleep disorders have been associated with a wide range of deleterious health consequences including an increased risk of hypertension, diabetes, obesity, depression, heart attack, and stroke.

Sleep deprivation and depression

Sleep deprivation is the condition of not having enough sleep; it can be either chronic or acute. A chronic sleep-restricted state can cause fatigue, daytime sleepiness, clumsiness and weight gain. It adversely affects the brain and cognitive function.

Sleep deprivation has been tied to an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity, and depression.

Microsleeps really help…Stay calm

Few studies have compared the effects of acute total sleep deprivation and chronic partial sleep restriction. Complete absence of sleep over long periods has not been seen in humans (unless they suffer from fatal familial insomnia); it appears that brief microsleeps cannot be avoided. Long-term total sleep deprivation has caused death in lab animals. Microsleeps could be significant for insomnia people since it still “charge” you in a very efficient way.

Sleep disorder and Insomnia are brothers

Insomnia and depression feed on each other. Sleep loss often aggravates the symptoms of depression, and depression can make it more difficult to fall asleep. On the positive side, treating sleep problems can help depression and its symptoms, and vice versa.

Insomina is Spiritual problem?

The reason people often do not get relief through conventional medical treatments is that the root cause of most sleep disorders lies in the spiritual dimension. In order to treat spiritual problems effectively, a solution needs to be taken at a spiritual level. It could be somewhat difficult in the real world since the spirit world is much more complicated for ordinary people.

Sleeping pills have by far been the most common medical treatment, with nearly 9 million adults having taken prescription sleeping pills in the last 30 days, according to the press release. But this comes with well-established safety risks, including decreased mental alertness the morning after use.

These medications can cause next-day impairment of driving and other activities that require full alertness, leading physicians and patients to seek a drug-free alternative.

Sleeping devices

 

There are two types of sleep, REM sleep and non-REM sleep. Deep non-REM sleep is essential for brain maintenance, physical health and emotional well-being

For those who have tried eye masks, earplugs, or nose masks but cannot sleep well, stimulation of smell by calming aroma, hearing by relaxing music, and sight by dim candlelight and moonlight may unwind the body and mind.


Gently stimulate three senses: sight, hearing, and smell.  

Aroma

Aromatherapy is an essential component of the Sleepion 2 because it calms the brain and helps the body relax when sleeping. Five different aromas (Hinoki, Lavender, Germanium, Lemon Grass and Forrest) promote different activities in the brain.

Light

Characteristics of light include color temperature and luminance. According tosleep studies, 2,700 Kelvin in color temperature and 35% in luminance is the optimal range for sleep. The Sleepion 2 has a 2,500 Kelvin watt lightbulb that simulates the pulsing of a candle and the light of the moon, regulating biological rhythms and inducing a state of deep sleep once an individual falls asleep.

Sound

The choice of song is a pivotal part of the Sleepion 2. The Sleepion 2 comes pre-loaded with 32 different songs to promote healthier sleep, relaxation, and concentration throughout the day. All songs are the original composition of Kenichi Toki and are only available in the Sleepion 2.

Jobsite documentation

One of the biggest myths about construction jobsite camera is the 24/7 real time monitoring IP camera is enough. The real time video is quite a good fit for something emergency or urgent while the FILE SIZE of these 24/7 real time monitoring camera is something you should pay attention to.

It is easy to receive a 200MB per day from a normal video file( 1080p). It’s just one camera. Think about how many cameras you possess at the jobsite. It is getting less expensive since emerging cloud storage services,  still a big expense in 12 month( 18 months for most of the construction project), though.

Fat video files are obsolete since

  1. Too big to store
  2. Too slow to search or locate the clips you need
  3. Too clumsy to handle so let it be

Tons of your video files_ simply too hard to deal with

It’s fair to say that people do not really care about the energy bills of these two Bulbs (they are LED, aren’t they?). What matters are these things:

 

(1) The simplest way to secure your home-> Home security: Use remote control house lights, they are very cost effective compared to Security Cameras setups.

Using the included Wink HUB, these two GE Link light bulbs connect to the Wink app on your mobile device, so you can control them from anywhere. Remotely operated individual lights or groups, sync them with other smart products,  dim or highlight for the perfect setting, and automate lighting to fit your schedule. They use 80% less power than traditional bulbs, making them energy efficient.

 

(2) The Wink is likely the very 1st gadget in your smart home: And it’s only $49.99 now at Home Depot.

Checking on the apps while you are away is a great start for the entire Smart Home. It probably won’t, on the other hand, include your refrigerator and it won’t include everything( fitness, health, home security, home appliances) in one app.
