It’s actually no laughing matter, and quite embarrassing for people who have loud snoring problems. It is also difficult for those people who are subjected to hearing the noise and disruption. In both cases, Sleep Apnea interferes with getting a good nights sleep.
Oddly enough, the person doing the snoring is in danger of all types of issues, which may result from this condition.
Some are listed below:
- Pauses in breathing while sleeping often followed by snoring or gasping for air
- High blood pressure
- Daytime Tiredness
- Nighttime sweats
- Difficulty concentrating
- Dry mouth or a sore throat in the morning
- Morning headaches
- Mood changes
- Depression or Anxiety
I had the fortunate experience to learn about using Yoga for pain from a public television station, and thought I would share that information with you along with some websites, which provide information on Yoga for seniors (not that you have to be one to benefit from reducing pain with Yoga methodologies).
24 years since I had open heart surgery. Yes
across a street by myself. At that point, I promised myself and the forces that guide us that if given the future opportunity to walk, I would make sure to honor that ability.
I recently had the benefit of attending a talk about dementia and how to plan and live with this challenging condition/disease.
As senior citizens, I think that we are often looking for ways to enhance our well-being: 1) by changing what we eat; 2) trying to exercise; and, 3) get enough sleep. And, of course, getting our regular checkups with doctors. By taking as many of these steps as we can, we hope that it will lead us to long and healthful lives, right?
One of my New Year’s resolutions is to focus more attention on what type of groceries I am purchasing. In addition, I want the recipes I make to be creative, tasty and healthful. My grandmother cooked what could be called ‘soul food’, which was always delicious and she was healthy all her life. She lived to be 94 years old. My grandmother was not the only person I know of who lived a long life and ate things like collard greens, macaroni & cheese, biscuits. I also remember her having a garden, where she grew all kinds of vegetables and from which she used to cook her dinner. I actually don’t recall her using a lot of fertilizer on the vegetables she grew.
Are you aware of the benefits that senior citizens (referred to as elderly people) can receive by eating yogurt? Are you aware that not all yogurt give you the same benefits, and why you might choose one type versus another type?
