Subscribe to the BlogHealth problems can cause your restless sleep. Pain and discomfort can keep you from falling asleep.
Sleep tips for what ails you.
Asthma - drink lots of water. Water will thin your mucus. This helps at night to lessen the build up of mucus. Also sleeping with your upper body elevated should help you get a good nights sleep.
Fibromyalgia - A sleep remedy for Fibromyalgia tender points. This sleep remedy is prefect for people with Fibromyalgia symptoms.
Arthritis can cause so much pain and discomfort that lead to difficultly sleeping. Try swaddling like you do a baby. Wrap your self tightly in a sleeping bag or a warm blanket.
With arthritis, it is important to sleep warm, put a wool blanket under your mattress pad and place a wool blanket over your cotton or synthetic blanket and then another blanket if need be.
Restless leg sleep or Restless Leg Syndrome has had a lot of attention because of a new drug out on the market. (A mind altering drug with side effects like gambling.) You will have huge success with taking magnesium and getting enough vitamin D. Restless leg sleep is very prevalent in people with anemia. Be sure to see your nutritionist, homeopath or Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor if you suffer from leg cramps and restless legs. (This works for kids "growing pains".)
Hope these help you with the restless sleep that can be caused by these health problems.
Sleep well,

I once suffered from restleg legs. That’s really not fun when trying to sleep. I should have known you then!

Hmmm… In the past, I’ve often had that restless leg thingy. When I saw those commercials, I thought they were really stupid, though. I’m glad I didn’t rush out and get any of the medication. Of course, unless I wanted an hallucinogenic voyage to Vegas!
