How to Get Rid of Sleep Disorder by Peter Hutch


Snoring can be a lot more than an irritant to bed partners and other listeners. It’s often a symptom of progressive sleep apnea syndrome, a disorder that not only stymies the snorer’s slumber but also can have serious effects on blood pressure, risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and even mortality.

Sleep insomnia, in some cases, is recognizable by your difficulty falling asleep or your inability to maintain sleep. Other people who suffer from insomnia complain of waking up too early in the morning and not being able to go back to bed.Whatever causes you to complain about sleep insomnia, recognizing the symptoms can help you to seek treatment and eventually manage the condition and get the sleep you need. I know it may seem like a fantasy, but it is possible for you to live a normal life and get the proper amount of sleep, even if you suffer from sleep insomnia. You just need to educate yourself about how to get rid of your insomnia.

Apnea, in most people, is an anatomical issue, not solely a weight issue. As such, there are radical procedures, such as one that you can have done to have your lower jaw broken, shunts added to bring it (and your tongue) forward, and a few other things done all at once. Your appearance will likely be altered, and you may get rid of the apnea. Or you may not. I know a guy who had that procedure done a few years ago. For him it was a matter of life-and-death -- literally. He still has moderate apnea (42 apnea an hour), uses a BiPAP, and the doctors told him -- despite being in terrific physical condition with a low body-fat count -- to just count on using xPAP for the rest of his life.

The short-term effects of a sleeping disorder can include fatigue and a lack of alertness, as well as short-term memory loss. Extreme long-term effects of a lack of rest can include cardio vascular disease and chronic fatigue. Both of these sleep disorders can affect your career and quality of life as well as putting you and your family at risk if you are unable to perform such tasks as driving without being drowsy.

Avoid foods and beverages that contain caffeine, which is often used for its ability to keep you alert during the day and, if possible, don't eat a large meal before bedtime. After eating your evening meal and/or snacks, try to allow at least 2 ½ to 3 hours o pass before you go to bed. The digestive process can take up to five hours and can interfere with sleep.

When a person suffers from insomnia, the two organs most often out of balance are the Heart and the Liver. Each of these two organs houses a specific aspect of the spirit. If these organs are out of balance, they will not be able to house the spirit properly, and the spirit will wander. (TCM, although a very complex medical system, had its origins in Taoism, and before that in shamanism. Therefore, there is a spiritual consciousness built into TCM theory.)
