Funny Anti Snoring Gadgets

My daughter bought my wife an anti-snoring bracelet. This works by giving the snorer a mild shock to wake them up if the noise of their snoring exceeds a certain threshold. This didn’t work for my wife but she may not have adjusted properly in any case she did not persist.

I would certainly like to know how much I snore, my kids have told me I do though not as much as my nearest and dearest. You can get sleep tests done where you either get equipment installed or stay in a prepared bedroom, whatever the case I am desperate to achieve better quality sleep and to once in a while wake up refreshed and full of beans!!

Now there is an anti-snoring Bear Pillow you sleep on the bears “stomach” and if you start snoring loudly its paw starts tickling your ear forcing you to turn away and to sleep on your side, sounds crazy enough to actually work, it’s called a Jukusui-kun pillow!

Sleeping Disorder : Waking Up Too Early

Many years ago I suffered from insomnia I can’t remember exactly how long but at least 6 months , I had difficulty falling asleep and then could be woken by a pin dropping. Then suddenly the problem went way, sometime’s I’d even sleep too much.

Recently however after a short period of unemployment and a bereavement in the wider family I developed a different sleep disorder that of waking up too early. With this I go to bed fairly late and fall asleep instantly then wake up for no apparent reason at 3, 4, or 5 am. The trick is to get up or read because you mustn’t lie there “worrying” about how tired you’ll be next day. I want to step up my exercise regime but it’s difficult in winter with all the dark evenings.

All in all waking too early is a rotten thing, I think I prefer insomnia!! What are your tips and what is your experience?

This is extremely stressing for the organs of  the sleeper and can even cause a heart attack. You need to get medical advice in severe cases. There are clinics where you spend the night and your sleep patterns can be monitored in order to asses the severity of them and any treatment required.

Sleep disorders are a modern plague and cause directly and directly a great loss to the economy. Snoring prevention cures are often seen as expensive but but is the real cost to your health, earning potential?

The notorious gunslinger John Wesley Hardin once tried to silence a snorer by firing through his hotel’s walls a sleeping man was killed whether or not he was the snorer is lost to history.

Snoring is renowned of course for being a passion killer, the snorer’s partner can harbor very negative feelings about their spouse but fortunately few resort to such drastic measures contenting themselves with the odd poke in the ribs. What is strange of course is that Snorers very rarely wake themselves up and many people don’t know or don’t believe they snore. If you learn that you snore please take it seriously , visit your doctor, your health and relationship may be at risk otherwise!

Oh yes snoring is always considered amusing in stories and movies but the truth is that workers and bosses under perform or make bad decisions because they slept badly, salesmen never make the call that would have won the big order, shop clerks avoid assisting customers to clinch a sale. Motorists get into road rage situations or cause accidents (20% of accidents are caused by sleepy drivers) and the list goes on. That’s why I’ve started this blog to seek out genuine anti-snoring devices.
