Getting Sound Sleep With Memory Foam Mattress

By Bradamate Chnadonnet


Sleep is a necessary facet of life but in this fast paced world you live in, the tendency is to not get as much sleep as needed. Too bad for people with busy lives then, but it's much worse for those of you experiencing sleepless nights brought about by insomnia. This type of sleeping disorder is fairly common and can target anyone it chooses to. Over the decades, there have been various attempts to find ways to cure insomnia. One result of these attempts is through sound therapy. This article explores how you can go about curing your insomnia naturally with sound.

The main and unique feature of memory foam mattress is that it can be molded easily with the shape of body which offers great support while sleeping by side, front or back. Even people who are having the habit of shifting their position, this mattress is recommended because it also shifts its position with the person using it, making him or her feel comfortable. This feature of the mattress is very good for two individuals sleeping in the same bed, especially if one is having a habit of shifting position but that won't disturb the other one.A memory foam mattress queen is normally produced from totally natural materials so it is always good for those people suffering from allergy. Moreover, these are also totally resistant to those pests which are having the habit of living in clean environment. This mattress is also capable of becoming cool in summer season and warm in winter season.

The White Type of Noise.Yes, noise is one of the leading factors of insomnia. Unwanted noise can disrupt your sleep and may mean one restless night for you. However, studies have shown that a certain noise type is actually a way of curing your insomnia naturally with sound. This is none other than white noise. This is a type of sound that merges the differing frequency sounds that a human ear can well, hear. Simply put, it is a random sound in the background that you usually don't pay that much attention to. These noises can prevent your brain from resisting sleep and stimulate your state of slumber to dominate. Examples include the whirring of your fan, rain drops on your roof, the hum of a waterfall, among others. Several companies have manufactured machines to imitate these sounds and act as sleep machines. If this option is more expensive than you can manage, you could always try out audio cassettes, CDs, or MP3s that will do just the trick. Some sleep generating sound clips are easily available online for your trial.

Nothing to Lose to Sleep Soundly.Though some of the above mentioned suggestions might not appeal to you, there is no harm in actually trying it out. You might have tried out several cures in the past without success but this may prove to be different. Curing your insomnia naturally with sound is not that radical an approach and may actually benefit you. For the most part it's less of a hassle than other form of treatments such as oral medication. Another advantage of this therapy is that it is non-invasive and will not result in negative side effects. So go ahead, choose the sound that's right for you and sleep the night away.

The term "sound machines" is a general term that refers to a class of appliances that include white noise machines, sleep machines, noise makers and white sound generators among many other permutations of these words. These devices are usually employed to block out or mask annoying sounds in our environment such as that created by neighbors arguing or playing their TV at too high a volume or just the general bustle of activity in a city that can create distracting noises. This noise in your environment can sometimes be blocked out by using a sound machine to overwhelm the offending noise with a more pleasant white noise sound of your own choosing. The white noise sound generated these machines usually consists of all sound frequencies occurring at the same time. This white noise will sound kind of like wind, rain, ocean or a mechanical sound like that produced by a motor or fan. The effect of this jumble of sound waves is that some sound waves get canceled and others get obscured, making the offending sound indistinct and therefore less obtrusive.

Avoid doing stimulating things just before bedtime. If you have been then relax, meditate, deep breathe or pray for around 10 minutes before getting into bed.If you are not asleep within 15 minutes don't lie there tossing and turning - get up and do some light exercise, walk or meditate - then go back to bed.Listen to soothing sleep sounds. Natural sleep sounds - like rain on the roof, breaking waves, running streams or forest sounds - playing quietly in the background allow the mind to switch off and not think about your problems from the day nor concentrate on how to get to sleep. Natural sleep sounds are better than playing your favourite music songs because the natural sounds are random and you are not tempted to sing along with them in your head.

Our recommendations of sound machines usually starts with the Dohm DS made by Marpac in the USA. The Dohm is a mechanical noise machine that produces a "real" fan like sound by using an actual motor. The limitation of the Dohm is that since the sound is not played through a speaker, it can't be amplified and therefore can only produce a fairly low volume. If you are wanting to produce louder sounds or want more variety of sounds produced by your machine, then we recommend looking at the Sound Oasis electronic machines. In particular we like the Sound Oasis S-650 since it comes with a better speaker than competing brands and has so many high fidelity sounds available at a reasonable price.
