NO Sleep Aid Might Be The Best Sleep Aid
There is an epidemic in the sleep industry that is keeping everyone awake. It is an epidemic of ignorance and apathy. Insomnia is always a symptom of something else, it is NEVER the problem itself. That message, however, is not getting through.
Online, May 9, 2011 (Newswire.com) - "As soon as insomniacs have a bad night's sleep they want to pop some sort of sleeping pill, supplement, or one of a thousand natural sleep aids on the market - anything to mask the symptom" says Elizabeth Shannon, Australia's Natural Sleep Reporter.
"It's the same sort of logic as looking at a bite on your child's arm, and chopping off the arm to get rid of the bite, without having first established whether the bite is from a mosquito, a bee or a king brown snake" Shannon continues. "The solution is equally ridiculous."
Some of the reasons people can't sleep include them having eaten a takeaway meal in the last couple of days that contained monosodium glutamate, having anxiety and panic issues, sugar imbalances, depression, inhaled chemicals, stress, their huge mortgage, abusive relationships, unresolved issue from their childhood, snoring partners, restless legs syndrome, pain, the side effects of their prescription medication, drug and stimulant abuse - to name a few.
Yet "take a sleeping pill, natural sleep aid or dietary supplement" seem to be the only message that has been successfully advertised to them.
Following the success of her common sense approach in Australia, Shannon has recently overhauled her blog to be more focused on people establishing their insomnia type first, before matching an appropriate solution to their sleep disorder. And it is available to anyone who understands English.
"For example, one of the best natural solutions is exercise for many people. It is doable, reduces stress, works like a natural anti-depressant, makes you feel better, improves your general health, and it is free. Any activity you do that improves your general and mental health is going to improve your sleep."
It is not always that simple however, for some people it is complicated, and a combination of factors.
"It's most important that you understand your sleep disorder before masking the symptom otherwise the problem is not solved, it is just deferred" Shannon emphasized.
