Enjoy Deep Sleep With Safe Sleep Aids

Is insomnia getting in the way of your social or your professional life? Whether it’s because of insomnia, restless sleep, jet lag, or light sleeping, not getting enough sleep can have a serious effect on both your mental and physical health. Not getting enough sleep is an impairment that can make you grouchy, tired, and unhealthy. It’s not something that should be taken lightly, but most of the sleep aids that are available in the market today have side effects that can cause even more damage to your health than sleeplessness.

Most sleep aids that are available in the market are narcotic sleeping aids and come with a lot of negative side effects. The most serious one that needs to be considered is narcotic dependence which means that you will get hooked to sleeping pills and might even completely lose the ability to sleep without them. This dependence on sleeping pills completely defeats the purpose of taking them for getting a good night’s sleep and creates a cycle of sleeplessness that is not a solution to insomnia at all. That’s why natural sleep aids like Sleep So Good are the healthier option, especially for people who experience recurring cases of sleeplessness.

The dangers of narcotic sleeping pills are what make natural sleep aids like Sleep So Good so appealing for many people. Because a natural sleep aid utilizes all-natural components, there is no risk of narcotic dependence. Plus, these safe sleep aids allow you to enjoy a deep and relaxing sleep and have you wake up refreshed and re-energised. People who depend on narcotic sleeping pills often complain that they wake up groggy and tired which means that they aren’t really rested despite the long night’s sleep. With natural sleep aids, you are not risking your health and you still get a restful, good night’s sleep.

If it’s been a while since you’ve slept as much as you needed and woken up feeling relaxed and refreshed, then you need a natural sleep aid that can help solve your problem of sleeplessness. With a good night’s sleep, you’ll definitely feel the difference in your mood and in your general physical and mental health.

Natural sleep aids are just as effective and just as fast acting as the narcotic sleeping pills available in the market today, and they don’t put your health or well-being at risk. You’ll stay healthy and you can get the good night’s sleep that you deserve so that you can wake up every morning feeling refreshed and ready to face the day.

Which Herbs Are Most Effective For Menopause?

Most of the menopause products are created based on 3 strategiess:

  • a single supplement/herb wonder
  • a combination of past researched supplements/herbs with an addition of the latest fad herb
  • in most cases a newbie manufacturer/distributer copies another company’s product that is selling well

The result is that it is difficult for the consumer to determine what works. So how do you know what works?

Anybody can produce testimonials but long term repeatable, sustainable results are very challenging to produce. The research on the research demonstrates that women are not getting the truthful facts but rather a marketing spin to get you buy their product or one where they share in the proceeds. In most cases, the manufacturer may truely believe they have a formula that will work based on misinformation on a herb’s benefits.

The right herbs for menopause will primarily 1) raise the body’s energy, 2) nourish the blood, 3) cool the body and 4) normalize the body’s thermostat. And indirectly, because the underlying imbalance is corrected, the menopause symptoms will begin to dissapate within 2 hours.  

Most discoveries about herbs have come from Chinese herbal medicine but revealed to the American public in an incomplete manner. The American manufacturers share the info about an herb as a solution for everyone who has a particular symptom. Nevermind, all the body of Chinese medicine and theory that understands that there are different body types or constitutions that may accompany those symptoms. Menopause is a hot body type condition requiring specific emphasis on cooling the liver. 

Chinese herbs which have proven to be effective for hundreds of years on millions of patients. Most Chinese master herbalists understand that after millions of subjects there isn’t much need to research what is obvious, tried and proven. Its essential to apply the right formula to the right constitution and symptoms, not just the symptoms. In addition, in order to discern this  relationship between body constitution and herb formulation, it is essential to choose the most knowledgeable practitioner.

A Practicing Master Herbalist Knows More About Herbs Than Any Other Profession?

A seasoned master herbalist (10 years+) who works with herbs every day is the best source for herb medicine. The time element is critical to allow the practitioner to get the kinks out and test his/her knowledge. What is taught in our traditional Chinese herbs and herb medicine schools is only a beginning knowledge and needs to be tested. Better yet, graduates need long term apprenticeship before they are ready to correct imbalances with their clients. Medical doctors rely on their Physician’s Desk Reference for information on herbs which is truely a beginning base source.Rarely does one herb or two , three herb compound work for the whole public. They may work for a quarter of the population or people who have a similar constitution but not everyone. For instance, the Chinese herb, Black Cohosh, has been exposed as unsuitable for menopause. Its used for fevers.Notwithstanding, American supplement makers have discovered a method to take advantage of the half truths provided to everyone and so the tale carries on. Never mind that its short term benefits decay in 2-3 weeks.A proven improvement with other homeostatic herbs would be to ingest bupleurum.

In summary, the best choice of herbs for menopause will take into consideration the woman’s constitution or body type when constructing a formula. Additionally, herbs that have a long established record for hundreds to thousands of years must be perceived with greater preference over herbs with a minimal account. I encourage everyone to seek a seasoned source in herbal medicine.

Drugless Therapy for Mental Problems of ADD/ADHD and Autism

A new drugless therapy that works on most mental problems is available. It has NO bad side effects.  This new solution to these problems is affordable even to low income families.  (Unlike the effective, but very expensive EEG Biofeedback (AKA Neurofeedback or Neurotherapy).  Neuroliminal Training (NT) changes brain wave amplitudes in a different simpler way than EEG Biofeedback.  While most call it simply “Neuroliminal”, or “NT”, the full name is “Neuroliminal Brain Wave Training”.  (There’s a Patent Pending on this new usage of subliminal messaging).

How does it work?  It uses a special combination of speech and audio sounds combined in a subliminal message on a repeating CD.  This type of repetitive message is actually “beneficial brainwashing”.  This therapy has been proven very effective for not only ADD/ADHD and Autism, but also for depression, insomnia, and even epilepsy.  In January 2007, a volunteer test with 11 autistic kids ranging in age from 3 ½ to 11 showed the same overall improvement in an 8 week reporting period as would be expected in a similar group using EEG Biofeedback.  Even more significant, of nearly 200 Autism CD packages sold, only 2 have been returned under the guarantee  (“Noticeable improvement within 6-8 weeks or return for refund”).

Earlier tests (2004) showed both depression and Insomnia problems were solved within a few weeks or less.  In tests in 2005/6, over 20 ADD/ADHD sufferers in a volunteer test all solved these symptoms within 8 weeks.  They are now able to sit in class, concentrate, and learn.  IQ scores also improved considerably.  With Ritalin and other drugs, IQ is often affected adversely.  We waste many of our brightest kids this way – Why?

What are the drawbacks?  Changing brain wave amplitudes takes time.  Even using EEG Biofeedback (AKA  Neurofeedback or Neurotherapy), it takes 50-60 sessions for most ADHD cases and hundreds of sessions for autism cases.  THERE ARE NO QUICK SOLUTIONS TO MENTAL PROBLEMS.

Why does it work?  Why does raising one brain wave (called SMR 12-14 Hz) do so much for mental problems?  For the past 40 years EEG biofeedback has been proving this works, but no one knows exactly why.  We don’t know exactly how it works, but we do know how to use it. Like hypnosis and electricity.

I voiced a theory that stated “Increasing the amplitude of the SMR brain wave, SOMEHOW changes the affect on the brain of allergens” in 2000 at a conference.  There is a huge body of anecdotal evidence that this theory is correct, and there is still no viable alternate that explains the huge success of either EEG Biofeedback or Neuroliminal Training.  Both are similar in success rates. The only real difference is a huge difference in cost and convenience.

More and more, our kids are being treated with dangerous drugs that do not “cure” anything, just attack the symptoms, and dull the perceptions and reflexes of the kids.  Drugs never really solve such problems, they just relieve some symptoms, and their side-effects all too often lead to worse problems.  Neuroliminal Training has no danger of bad side effects.
