Last one this week... at least as far as links to my ezine articles are concerned. This one was about the link between snoring and insomnia.
The obvious thought is on the poor snorers partner (terrible when your wife snores like that!!). However, things are a little deeper than that. Snorers suffer from a terrible quality of sleep and may not even realise it. What happens is that they are waking up every few minutes. Not by enough to be conscously aware - just enough to disturb their sleeping rhythms.
Once again the cures are more to do with lifestyle than anything else - with obesity a big contributing factor (though far from the only one).
Anyway - enjoy the article:

Herbal Cures For Insomnia
OK, I'll admit it, I'm anti-medication!
Well, in terms of insomnia at least... guess the discomfort comes from the number of people I have come across in life with some kind of drug dependence - whether it is to tranquilisers, smoking, alcohol, sleep medication or all manner of even worse substances.
Fortunately, drugs are far from being the only treatment available for insomnia - not only do lifestyle changes (especially to do with food / drink and exercise) help, but there are lots of herbal treatments available which are a 'low intensity' way of treating mild insomnia symptoms.
Here is the link to the article I put together for ezine on the subject... recommended reading for those who would like to distinguish their Camomile from their St John's Wort!

Another Insomnia Article At eZine
This week I will be linking to a few of the articles I penned for ezine articles. Now a platinum author as well as an 'expert author' (not actually sure how much one should read into that - it is all about the volume!).
So, stress and worry are two of the largest causes of short-term insomnia symptoms... and currently the biggest causes of stress and worry are the global credit crunch. With homes being foreclosed in record numbers and unemployment shooting up around the world, people are rightly nervous about their money... did you know that, while in the US you can hand back the keys to your home, in other countries such as the UK the bank will pursue you for the difference between what you owe and what the house was sold for... a sobering thought.
Anyway - here is that link, hope you enjoy the article.

First Batch Of Insomnia Treatments Articles Published At eZine
Was expecting things to take a little longer after reading reports - but I am pleased to say that my first batch of insomnia treatments articles have been published over at ezinearticles.
Thought I would do an overview of the first 3 here, and then do a couple more when time permits - there are actually some more in the pipline over there waiting for the 'quality control' approval step (which seems to take the longest)
So, without further ado (the titles will be the link to the original:
1) 10 Tips For Better Sleep At Night - Part #1
This is the first 5 tips on getting a better night's sleep and includes information on the effects of Caffeine, Alcohol, Naps, Food and Exercise! Hope I do not come across as too anti-drink in these, while alcohol should never be used soley for the purposes of inducing sleep - there is nothing wrong with the occasional glass!
2) 10 Tips For Better Sleep At Night - Part #2
The first one got a bit long... so I split into 2, here the insomnia-busting tips are carried on and include several factors concerning your sleeping environment, as well as a mention of worries and anxiety (a subject which is covered in a lot more depth in future articles)
3) Causes Of Insomnia
This one takes a bottom-up approach, looking at 5 of the most common causes of insomnia - and then suggesting treatments / remedies based on the root-cause. Since insomnia and disturbed sleep is caused by many different factors I think it is important to differentiate those causes before reading about the various remedies.
Of course - you can catch the best of my insomnia articles at my dedicated website: Best Insomnia Treatments
