Snoring Spouse – Sleepless Nights

Creepy Open Eye Sleep Snoring

If you have ever slept with someone who snores, you know that even if it is not very bad, it can cause the snorer’s s to loose sleep.  Being sleepy all day long can also be life threatening for the person and those around him/her.

Weight loss

Several studies have linked being overweight with snoring.  The additional weight around the neck area tends to restrict the flow of air and increase the likelihood of snoring.  If you are over weight is is very possible that loosing the excess pounds will help to reduce your snoring.

Stop smoking

Smoking has also been linked to snoring.  This is another reason to stop smoking beyond the other well known health benefits of kicking the smoking habit.

If you are looking for snoring solutions, it is important to make sure your snoring is not a sign of a more serious health problem.  Snoring is one of the key symptoms of sleep apnea.  Because of this it is important to not let your snoring go untreated.

What are the signs of sleep apnea?

Symptoms of sleep apnea include:

Daytime drowsiness

Many people with sleep apnea describe a feeling of constant fatigue.  No matter how much sleep you get you are still feeling tired throughout the day.  If you feel like you can not get through your day without taking a nap, or you are even having problems staying awake at work this is a sign of daytime drowsiness.  This is not about feeling tired after not getting much sleep.  It is best described as just always feeling tired.

Irritability

Feeling like your tiredness leads to you feeling irritable on a consistent basis.

Morning headaches

A tendency to wake after a long amount of sleep, with a headache.

Severe snoring

Many people may snore from time to time.  Severe snoring is consistent and can even affect the sleep of those around you.

Mouth dryness after sleeping

Waking from sleep with a feeling of constant mouth dryness.  This can be more severe in colder climates during the winter, when home heating systems tend to dry the air.

Allergies.

  • Tongue falling to the throat.
  • Mispositioned jaw caused by tense muscles.
  • Throat weakness causing throat to close during sleep.
  • Fat gathering in and around the throat.
  • Another form is to focus on something external. This method can be good for beginners as it feels like you are doing something. It’s hard for a mind that is so used to continuous thought to grasp the concept of doing “nothing”, so listening to calming music, being guided by a soothing voice, or both can really help. A further technique is the use of binaural sounds as a form of guided meditation. In this technique the practitioner used a selection of sounds to achieve an intense state of relaxation. This method is also great for the beginner. Yet another form can be using a chant or mantra to help focus the mind. This method is often used in Buddhist meditation and is also found in the western world as chants such as those used by Gregorian monks.

    Having said this, you may ask, “so how did you resolve your problem?’ Well, after trying just about every and any imaginable so called cure, solution, and remedy presented to us, including an exhausting three day exam that my husband was talked into taking, our solution turned out to be quite simple. Earplugs, yes after all the doctor visits an sleepless nights, I found my relief in a pair of  latex free foam earplugs that help me sleep better naturally
