8 Techniques and Sleep Like a Baby


8 Techniques and Sleep Like a Baby

During our lives we all experience the occasional night of sleeplessness without any long term consequences. But its when the occasional night here and there becomes a pattern of several nights in a row of constant tossing and turning in an attempt to fall asleep that you may be faced with a real sleeping problem.

Chronic sleep deprivation will eventually affect you in every area of your life and personality. Im sure that the grumpy old man supposedly getting out on the wrong side of the bed is familiar to you.

He is grumpy because he was sleep deprived.

Here are 6 techniques that will have you sleeping well and feeling refreshed when you wake every morning.

1.Bedtime Routine:
It is possible to achieve a regular bedtime routine that works for you. By doing the same things and going to bed the same time each night you can set a pattern that will travel to your subconscious and become habit. The more regular your routine for preparing yourself for sleep the better the outcome will be.

2. Reduce Evening mental Stimulation:
Consider the night as your time to unwind, make this your new mindset by seeing this as YOUR new evening routine. This is what YOU do, the more relaxed you are before you begin your night time routine the more successful you will be.

An hour before going to bed it's a good idea to reduce any type of external stimulation like sitting on the computer or watching action packed movies that cause your mind and body to remain overly alert. You need to give your mind a chance to unwind so you can go to sleep feeling calm, relaxed, not worried, stressed or thinking about issues from work.

3. Avoid Stimulants or eating close to sleep time:
Avoid from eating anything 3 hour before bed time, you want your body to be as relaxed as possible not working trying to digest what you have just eaten. Keep away for any type of stimulants that increases your heart rate and wakens your mind and body like Caffeine in all its forms weather in chocolate, coffee, tea, sodas and even some medicines.

Do you know that sugar is classed as a stimulant?

4. Exercise:
We know exercise is good for us. We’ve been told time and time again that it helps prevent weight gain, keeps us healthy, keeps the heart and circulatory system healthy, keeps our muscles from atrophy as we age. But did you know that exercise will help you sleep better?

The amount of physical energy that you expend during the day is a key ingredient to helping you sleep restfully at night. The more active your body is during the day the more likely you are able to relax fully at night and fall asleep.

I can remember as a teenager having a very full day at ponyclub camp and afterward my instructor saying that the tiredness we all felt was a good kind of tiredness. She was right.

People with regular exercise routines often sleep better and have fewer incidents of insomnia than those who don't get regular physical activity.

Lack of exercise can contribute to poor sleep patterns, muscle tension and stress build up in the body. However, intense exercise too close to bed can increase adrenaline levels, leading to insomnia. So important note, do not exercise three to four hours before going to bed.


5. Take a bath or shower:
A warm bath with Epson salts an hour or more before bed may help you relax and feel drowsy. The warm water will affect your circulatory system and ease your body into restfulness as well as alleviate tension. When your body temperature is raised in the late evening, it will fall at bedtime, facilitating sleep.

6. Try this Mindset Technique:
When lying in bed start to slow down your breathing, breathe in through your nose and exhale slowly though your mouth. Utter the words "relax- your'e gettting sleepy" in your mind with every exhalation.

Focus on relaxing each area of your body in sequence, from the bottom of your toes to the top of your head. Starting with the bottom of your toes, inhale and then exhale slowly, while visualizing your toes relaxing, your muscles relaxing. Say "relax-your'e getting sleepy" in your mind. Repeat this with each body part as you move up through all body parts, your toes, feet, legs, thighs, abdomen, stomach, chest, arms and so forth till you get to your head. By this time you should be relaxed and sleep should not be far away.

You may find that different words work for you, perhaps the simple word sleep, or a prayer of thankfullness or maybe focusing on a picture in your mind of someone you love dearly sleeping restfully. Whatever works for you grab it and run with it.

7. Valerian and or Cammomile tea:
Herbal remedies have been used right down through the ages. They are the original medications used by our foreathers for generations and are written about in books and manuscripts including the BIBLE.

Today many health practitioners utilize the powerul qualities of many herbal and plant essences and oils to treat hundreds of health issues with wonderul success. They do not replace such procedures as necessary surgery to repair or remove a problem, for broken bone splints and much much more but they can be utilized with great affect to help prevent the need for more invasive treatments such as these.

Cammomile tea just before bedtime has been used for generations as a relaxant.

A couple of Valerian tablets just before bedtime is another natural, herbal and non toxic method you can try. Both these herbal products are quite easy to purchase, can be often found in supermarkets, if not there, in your local health food shop.

8. Another Great method is
A Natural Rest Quiet Sleep Patch for those who have tried all the above and failed to achieve good sleep. This is a new approach to getting a peaceful night's sleep. The patch allows natural organic material to interact with the human body via its own electrical field to improve relaxation and well being. Natural, healthy, nothing enters the body.

Users of the Rest Quiet sleep patch report that the product makes it easier to go to sleep, stay asleep, awake refreshed, and even may stop snoring.

Marine Phytoplankton Saves Lives

Basic HISTORY

Tom Harper, a Shellfish Hatcher on an Island in the Pacific northwest, had learned to produce Marine Phytoplankton to feed his shellfish in his large hatchery tanks. He grew this plankton in huge concrete tanks filled with seawater and then when ready the plankton was harvested for use.
Remaining seawater is then pumped back into the ocean and contains tons of unused plankton which also goes out into the bay area as living plankton that sea creatures can utilize for food.

Marine Phytoplankton is the basis of the food chain in the ocean therefore this extra food has caused an explosion of sea life including all kinds of shellfish, sea lions and eagles among other marine related life.

A few years ago now Tom became quite ill while attending his business and upon consultation with doctors was given a death sentence, 9 weeks to 9 months, told to go home get his affairs in order and prepare to die. It was a more rare type of cancer in the lungs.

Life had little meaning for Tom after that but one day while attending to normal duties and handling the shellfish food he thought that, as it was good for them, and no one had really ever tried it on humans it could possibly also be good for us. He began to take just a small amount of the paste on his finger every day.
Tom states himself that it was only a matter of days that he began to feel much better.
The end result is that Tom became totally well and is still here today.

Tom and his daughter began to produce this food in larger amounts and in time ended up looking for another product to put their amazing sea plants into in order to market it to the world.

This is briefly how they came to find out about Forever Green and how FrequenSea was born.



FREQUENSEA

FrequenSea is a blend of many different land plants along with Astaxanthin (marine phytoplankton).
Just a few of the other ingredients in FrequenSea are Frankincense, Ionic sea minerals, rose extract, Aloe Vera, Ginger, lime, Blueberry, Cranberry, Apple.

Frankincense is a powerful antioxidant, strongest antioxidant known to mankind, 500 times stronger than Vitamin E. It is also anti parasitic and anti inflammatory and along with Astaxanthin (M Phytoplankton) jumps the blood brain barrier to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Therefore as soon as FSea hits the mouth it is being absorbed through the mucus membranes into the blood stream. That is why it is best to keep FSea in your mouth for a time before swallowing.

All the other plant ingredients of FSea are obtained via CO2 extraction which extracts the entirety of the plant without compromising the beneficial properties. This extract is blended with the plankton in a very bio available form to make up FrequenSea.

Dr Jerry Tennant says that In chronic disease the digestive system and the liver shut down. Both are necessary to get raw materials into the body to make new cells for us to heal.
This is where Marine Phytoplankton comes in. There is no processing in the digestive tract. It absorbs directly into the bloodstream, some immediately and works by bypassing the liver and digestive system so that the body can start to make those all important new healthy cells
immediately. It’s quite common for people to have improvement in only a few days, not weeks.

FrequenSea has another benefit and that is that it is not localized to only one organ or health issue. FrequenSea fixes cell communication in entirety. It’s a whole food and treats the whole body therefore has a huge advantage over many other products on the market..

Astaxanthin is made up of 215 different species of algae of which spirulina, chlorella and fresh water algae are some.
