Family / How Your Child Suffers From Lack Of Sleep by Y4all: 5:28pm On Jan 20, 2021
Interestingly, our children aren’t getting enough sleep. Unfortunately, family members bear much of the financial, emotional, psychological, social, burden when a child suffers from lack of sleep. Does your child get the recommended sleep duration for each day? Apparently, many children (age 0-12) are ignorant of the effects of sleep deprivation. So, you would have to get them on a sleep routine to ensure they get quality sleep.

The truth is that most children consider sleep, especially day-time naps, as a punishment. So many factors contribute to the tendency of our kids to stay awake rather than go to bed. These factors include: not being tired, too busy watching cartoons, playing games, playing with a new or old toy, etc., they are afraid of something, want to be with you or lack the motivation e.g. no enticing bedtime routine.

Recently, a father sought help in Nairaland on how to handle his child who is sleep deprived due to fondness for cartoons. In his own words `` My 3 year old son loves cartoons especially PJ Mask so much to the extent he could watch it from 7pm to 3:am in the morning.  If you take him to the bedroom he won’t sleep, he cries and if not this cartoon nobody watches any other program anymore. He used to be intelligent before now, it seems this PJ Mask has entered his head. Please help me, how can I stop him or distract him from this?

Fortunately, our article on “How to get your kids on a sleep routine” provides useful tips on how to ensure your child gets quality sleep and lives healthily. You have to become deliberate about your child’s sleep time and wake time.  This is amongst many advantages; sufficient sleep will boost your child's immune system and overall wellbeing. Does a child suffer from lack of sleep? Certainly.

HERE’S HOW YOUR CHILD SUFFERS FROM LACK OF SLEEP

Increase risk of health problems

Lack of  sleep can make your kid sick. This is because sleep and the immune system are strongly connected.  Having adequate sleep will boost your child’s immune system which in turns helps protect the body from bacteria and viruses that attack the body. However, sleep deficiency can distort the healthy functioning of the immune system, increasing vulnerability to illnesses. Children who don’t sleep well are exposed to illnesses such as obesity, high blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, diabetes and so forth.  Besides, not only will a child suffer from these illnesses due to lack of sleep, the entire family also shares in this suffering.

Reduced or slow cognitive processes

Research has shown that children with numerous learning disorders have an elevated prevalence of sleep problems.  For instance, 80% of children with intellectual disabilities suffer from sleep difficulties.  This is evident in the child who watched cartoons between the hours of 7am to 3am daily. Also, a study also revealed that between 25% and 50% of children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) experience problems with sleep. These stats prove that lack of sleep will affect your child’s ability to acquire knowledge and understand things through thought, experience and the senses.

Poor academic performance

Children who sleep little experience difficulty with learning and retention, this results in poor academic performance. Most times, sleep deprived kids doze off during classes and miss out on lessons. On the flip side, children who get quality sleep are more alert, creative, have better problem solving skills, better focus on task and responsibility, energetic, and able to learn and retain new knowledge and much more.

Emotional Problems

A child in sleep debt is prone to anxiety, negative moods, restless and easily stressed not only in childhood but also exhibit such behaviors as adults. A study of 2,706 children published in the April 7 issue of Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicines shows that children who get less sleep than their peers have a higher risk of anxiety, depression and aggressive behavior as adults. Notably, sleep loss can make your child easily angry, frustrated, irritated, sad and in some cases violent when relating with others. Meanwhile, a well rested child is always smiling, happy and full of life.

WHAT'S THE RECOMMENDED SLEEP DURATION FOR CHILDREN

We recommend the following sleep duration for your ward.

Newborns (0-3 months): Sleep duration between 14 and 17 hours each day

Infants (4-11 months): Sleep range is extended from 12 to 15 hours

Toddlers (1-2 years): Sleep range broadened from 11 to 14 hours

Preschoolers (3-5): Sleep range stretched by one hour from 10 to 13 hours

School age children (6-13): Sleep range widened by one hour, 9-11 hours

HOW TO GET YOUR KIDS ON A SLEEP ROUTINE

Having a sleep routine will help your child get quality sleep and live a more healthy life. Here are tips on how to get your child on a sleep routine.

Set a bedtime and wake-up time

Avoid certain meals before bedtime

Make the sleep environment more comfortable

Engage them

Help Alleviate Fears

Turn off screen

Look out for sleep disorder

CONCLUSION

Getting enough sleep will boost a child’s overall wellbeing.  A secret to ensuring your child get to sleep and stay asleep is in creating an enticing sleep schedule that lures your kid to sleep.  Unarguably, there are days your child may sleep earlier or later than the usual time. This may be due to special family outings or events or a new toy. Still, you must ensure not going to bed on time doesn’t become a habit.

Family / Does A Mattress Topper(s) Really Help? by Y4all: 11:22am On Jan 18, 2021
Sometimes, investing in a new mattress that suits our preference and lifestyle may just not be convenient. Most times, we seek an affordable yet effective solution to upgrade the comfort of our mattress and overall sleep quality. Thankfully,  mattress topper(s) is a quick yet durable solution. Interestingly, you don’t need to break the bank nor burden yourself or your budget to get one.

We’ve had customers question the value of a mattress topper, in fact some people think a mattress topper is just a bed cover that enhances the look of your mattress.  This is not surprising as most people are yet to explore and leverage on the advantages of a mattress topper.

Here’s a perfect scenario: A customer was about to purchase a new mattress because of the frequent shoulder and hip aches she experience. Also frustrated by the constant tossing and turning on bed in a bid to relieve pressure points which leaves her sleep deprived, she decided to invest in a new mattress although this was not financially convenient. Fortunately, our sales representative recommended the standard mattress topper that gives the ideal softness. This mattress topper upgraded the feel and standard of her old mattress and made it comfortable to sleep on and most remarkably on a low budget.

We get it, you really want to know if a mattress topper helps. Yes! A mattress topper(s) is valuable in a number of ways, let’s get to it:

Toppers enhance support and comfort

Imagine getting that ideal softness or firmness you desire. It only means better sleep and an improved wellbeing. A mattress topper would add extra cushioning and contouring to your body. You no longer have to wake up with aches and pains at pressure points because the ideal mattress topper would aid even distribution of your weight, spinal alignment and promote a healthy body posture.

Toppers prolong the lifespan of your mattress

Although a mattress topper doesn’t completely rule out the need to change your old mattress, it would prolong your mattress and give you extra time before you need to purchase a new mattress. Additionally, you can add extra comfort to your sleep experience with the right topper. Getting quality sleep should be your goal and going the extra miles, investing in a mattress topper doesn’t cost a fortune.

It keeps your mattress clean

Ideally, a mattress topper is placed on a mattress; this protects your mattress from dust, dirt and stains that can cause quick wear and tear. So, not only does a mattress topper provide support for your body, it also shields your mattress investment.

Its budget friendly

A topper helps you save more money by giving your mattress an upgraded feel.  Importantly, a mattress topper will relieve you of the stress and anxiety that comes from budgeting for a new mattress as a topper gives you extra time to invest in a new one while using the money saved on other important things.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT MATTRESS TOPPER(S)

Buying the wrong mattress topper is like adding salt to injury or petrol to fire as used in our local parlance to mean that you’ve made a bad situation worse.  So, it’s important to make the right choice of a mattress topper, the goal is to get the most comfortable mattress topper that enhances sleep and overall well being.  Here are factors to consider when making a choice of the right mattress topper.

Topper’s Thickness

There’s no one size fits-all topper, so you should consider the thickness of a topper before making a purchase.  An ideal topper should be at least 2inches; this can provide the needed support and comfort you desire. However, this depends on what your experience is. You can opt for a thicker topper.

Support/ Comfort

A mattress topper should change the feel of your mattress and provide an upgraded support for your body. If your mattress is too firm and causes aches and pains at pressure points, then you should get a mattress topper with a pillow-like softness, the Winco Foam Standard mattress topper is the best bet, to enhance the feel of your  and make you more comfortable. Sometimes, pains and aches can be a result of a too soft mattress, and then you will need a firm mattress topper such as the Winco Foam Orthopedic mattress topper to augment the comfort of your existing mattress rather than buy a new mattress. So, if it will not provide the needed support, then don’t invest.

Maintenance

Not all mattress toppers are washable; we recommend that you invest in a mattress topper that you can launder. This ensures you have a healthy sleep surface and reduces your vulnerability to allergies, rashes and other illnesses that can hamper your productivity.

Certified manufacturer/vendor

You do not want to be a victim of a substandard mattress topper. After all, your health is important to you. While there are quality toppers made by certified manufacturers and brands, there may also be fake toppers made with harmful chemical contents that can ruin your sleep and consequently your overall wellbeing.

HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A MATTRESS TOPPER
It is absolutely easy to maintain a mattress topper. Here are simple ways to take care of your topper(s)

Regularly air dry your topper

Place a mattress protector on your mattress topper before putting your bed sheets, this will help protect your mattress topper as well as your mattress and also elongate their life span

You can spray detergent on your mattress if it does not have any stain, dirt or odor. Simply mix a mild detergent in a bowl of warm water, turn it into a spray bottle or any alternative, and then lightly spray the entire topper. Ensure you lightly spray, not soak the topper.

Remove stains immediately with detergent, sponge and water so as not permanently stick to the topper. You can also use baking soda to clean stains, mix a handful of baking soda in a bowl of small water, using a towel, rub the solution on the stain. After a period of 45minutes to 1hour, you can soak the solution back and air your topper.

Launder your mattress topper regularly and ensure it’s completely dry before you return to its position.

You can also check the manufacturers guide on how to take care of your mattress topper.

 FINAL NOTE

Get a mattress topper today if you desire luxurious comfort and improved sleep.  It is an affordable solution to constant pains or aches in pressure points, an easy way to get comfortable sleep,  increases the durability of your mattress and most importantly a strategy to save more money.

 In conclusion, it’s not about getting a topper,  but you must get the right mattress topper from a reliable brand.  Also, taking care of your mattress topper would help you preserve your investment.

Family / 3 Secrets To Prevent So Many Diseases: Eat Right, Exercise And Get Quality Sleep by Y4all: 6:05pm On Jan 15, 2021
Many people struggle with one or more health conditions such as diabetes, stroke, cancer, hypertension, obesity, heart disease and other diseases that cost them lots of money in medical expenses every year. Interestingly, the proverbial saying "prevention is better than cure" reminds us that it's easier and better to stop these diseases from happening than to deal with it when it has happened. Yet some people are ignorant of “simple” lifestyle measures that could help them live healthfully whereas others consider it a huge task keeping up with “simple tips” that could help them prevent so many diseases and stay healthy.

Sometimes, we get so busy and carried away with  the hustle that eating right, exercising and getting quality sleep is considered trivial. Unfortunately, our bodies do not understand our  and so it fights us. To think that you need a balanced emotional, mental, physical wellbeing to function optimally, then practicing these 3 tips would be a priority for you.

That said; let’s look at the top 3 ways you can prevent so many diseases, stay healthy, increase your longevity and function optimally.

Eat Right
To maintain a good nutritional status, eating right is a good start. Undeniably, eating a well-balanced diet helps ward off many diseases and illnesses and can keep you away from constant medical trips. This is because your choice of food would either boost your immunity against diseases or attack your body immune systems, exposing you to harm today or in the future. It is important to feed on a diet with immune boosting properties such as citrus fruits, yogurts, garlic, ginger, spinach, almonds, papaya and so forth.

For instance, medically, it is advised that the best way to  prevent the  risk of type 2 diabetes, is to feed on low-fat, well- balanced diet, minimize or completely skip the intake of sugary foods and drinks, eat healthy fats, cut down on red meat, feed on foods rich in  protein such as beans, eggs, fish amongst others.  Additionally, you should consume these foods in the right proportion. Also, smoking cigarettes is a faster way of damaging your immune systems and increasing your vulnerability to a number of diseases. In fact, you are warned that “smokers are liable to die young” So, why take the risk in the first place? Similarly, the excessive intake of alcohol should be avoided, as moderation remains the key. Moreover, what you eat also affects the quality of sleep that you get. 

Exercise
Keeping fit through regular physical activity is a way to prevent diseases and enhance a healthy living. This is backed by a number of researches that proves the relationship between regular physical activity and a balanced wellbeing. One of the studies states that regular physical activity reduces the risk of heart disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, obesity and metabolic syndrome.

Also, engaging in physical activity improves other aspects of health and fitness, including aerobic capacity, muscle and bone, strength, flexibility, reduces stress, anxiety and depression. Fortunately, there is no magic to exercise and it doesn’t cost a fortune to keep fit. You can engage in exercises that help burn calories and strengthen your heart.  Examples of such exercises include:  walking, jogging, running, squats, push-ups etc. The rule of thumb is to deliberately engage in an exercise or activity that enhances blood circulation, and consequently aid your immune systems to work effectively.

Get Quality Sleep
Most adults do not get enough sleep. Expectantly, experts have associated a number of health issues to poor sleep quality. This is because of the health benefits of sleep to the body. Sleep is a vital but often neglected part of our lives.  It is as important as eating the right food and engaging in regular exercise. In our article “How your body suffers from lack of sleep” we have revealed the devastating effects of sleep deficiency and have also provided helpful tips on how to make up for lost sleep.

To stay healthy, you have to invest in anything that would help you get a better night rest, this includes purchasing a quality mattress and pillow.  The National Centre for chronic disease prevention and health promotion in its studies and findings has linked lack of sleep to several chronic diseases and conditions, such as Type2 diabetes, heart disease, obesity and depression and recommends 7hours+ of sleep for adults per night.

FINAL NOTE

While there are a number of ways to prevent so many diseases, we recommend that you practice eating healthily, have an exercise program, and ensure you sleep well. Remember, these factors are at the foundation of achieving a healthy lifestyle.

Family / Should Pets Share The Same Bed With Their Owners? by Y4all: 4:20pm On Jan 14, 2021
Can you sleep on the same bed with your four-legged friend? Unsurprisingly, most pet owners develop an unusual bond with these beautiful creatures that they do not consider sharing their slumber surface with their pet(s) a big deal. However, there are some people who frown at the idea of sleeping with their pets for some reasons.  But should pet lovers share the same bed with their pets?

We would look at two sides of the coin to determine what’s ideal for you. Let’s explore:

Negative Effects of sleeping with your pet(s)

It threatens the lifespan of your mattress
Co-sleeping with your pet could reduce the lifespan of your mattress especially if they are not well groomed. Your pet might accidently pee or even poo on your mattress, these stains could cause your sleep surface to emit a pungent smell or result in permanent stain. Additionally, your pet may leave dander, pollen and dust on your bed coverings; this can result in early wear and tear of not only your bed coverings but your mattress. We are sure you did not budget for getting a new mattress because of your pet do you? Besides, a pet bed would save you the hassle.

Interruption of sleep

Sleeping with your pet might affect the quality and quantity of your sleep, this is because your pets- cats, dogs and birds, do not share the same sleep cycle with humans. While humans are monophasic sleepers (have one segment of sleep especially during nighttime hours), pets are polyphasic sleepers (they sleep in shorter sessions throughout the day and night).  This explains why they stay alert, move around, kick, scratch and make unpleasant noise that may disrupt your sleep at night. Sleep disturbance and consequent sleep deficiency can influence your immune system and immensely affect your overall well being.  Although, some people snooze better with their pet in bed because of the feelings of warmth and security it provides.

 Pets don’t suffer from lack of sleep as you would; this is because they could easily make up for lost night time sleep during the day.

Vulnerability to allergies

Sharing a bed with your pet can trigger your risk of allergic symptoms for those who do not have pet allergies. Also, for those allergic to certain pets such as dogs, and a continuous exposure to this pet would trigger some health issues. Interestingly, while your pets go outside to potty or play with other pets, it is exposed to pollen, ticks, disease and dust that clings to its fur, and this can increase allergic reactions. Aside from the allergens, your pet can also transmit external parasites such as fleas and ticks to you.  Although, a daily routine of cleaning your pets with a moist towel, bathing them, washing your bed coverings and consistently sanitizing your mattress will reduce your exposure to pet allergens. But purchasing a pet bed for your friend is a safer way of protecting your health.

It may affect your relationship/ love life

What if your partner isn’t a pet freak, and frowns at the idea of co-sleeping with your pet. Letting your four- legged friend(s) slumber on your bed may affect your romantic relationship if you do not clearly define boundaries. So, it’s important to let your pet snooze in your bed often and not always. A result from an interesting survey carried out by mattress online indicates that 50% of pet lovers would rather cancel or post pone sex and let their four-legged friend interrupt an intimate evening if they couldn’t be left alone at night.  Also, pets can prevent you from cuddling with your partner.

The Pros of Co-sleeping with your Pet

Co-sleeping with your pet may not be entirely bad. The truth is that many experts and pet lovers have enthusiastically shared their beautiful experiences with pets and the benefits of having one. Here are some positives of snoozing with pets

Eases anxiety and stress

Interestingly, cuddling your furry friend releases cuddle hormone or love hormone known as oxytocin in your body. Studies have shown that oxytocin level increases during hugging. These hormones help to enhance your mood, learning ability, appetite, digestion, etc.

Provides a sense of safety

Co-sleeping with your pet for some people provides a sense of security. It will boost your confidence to know that while you drift to dreamland, your pet will alert you if they suspect any danger or even unusual event. However, this doesn’t erase the fact that your pet may disturb your sleep by jumping, dragging the blankets etc. Therefore the best workaround is to get a pet bed.

Reduces blood pressure

Studies indicate that having contact with your pet while sleeping can lower your blood level. Practically touching or petting your pet can lead to lower blood pressure readings.

CONCLUSION

Co-sleeping with pets has been an age-long practice in many cultures around the world. However, when considering the question co-sleeping with your pet, two important factors should guide your decision; they include your health and the health of your pet. If the risk associated with sleep loss, allergies, affected sex exceeds the benefits of snoozing with your furry friend, then we recommend investing in a quality pet bed for your four-legged friend.

WHAT DO YOU THINK? Should Pets Share the same bed with their owners?

Family / Oversleeping: What Happens When You Sleep Too Much? by Y4all: 4:49pm On Dec 23, 2020
You might be amongst the many people who are excited about the holiday period, because you finally got the time to rest. Unsurprisingly, you might be tempted to sleep long hours this period in a bid to make up for sleep lost during work days. Unfortunately, this article might just burst your bubble. This is because many industry experts have associated oversleeping with certain medical conditions which you don't want to experience. While we have continuously emphasized on the need for adequate sleep, still, oversleeping can be detrimental to your health.

HOW MUCH SLEEP IS TOO MUCH

The quantity of sleep you should get is largely determined by your age. Although, there are certain sleep conditions that might make you sleep longer than the recommended time. However the rule of thumb is to snooze within the recommended range for your age, and not to doze much more than( 9hours for adults) or far below(9 hours for adults)the recommended sleep range.
Below is the recommended sleep duration by the National Sleep Foundation:


Newborns (0-3 months): Sleep duration between 14 and 17 hours each day (Previously it was 12-18 hrs)

Infants (4-11 months): Sleep range is extended from 12 to 15 hours (Previously it was 14-15)

Toddlers (1-2 years): Sleep range broadened from 11 to 14 hours (Previously it was 12-14)

Preschoolers (3-5): Sleep range stretched by one hour from 10 to 13 hours (Previously it was 11-13)

School age children (6-13): Sleep range widened by one hour, 9-11 hours (previously it was 10-11)

Teenagers (14-17): Sleep range broadened by one hour, 8-10 hours (previously it was 8.5-9.5)

Younger adults (18-25): [/b]Sleep range is 7-9 hours (new age category)

[b] Adults (26-64)
: Sleep duration remains 7-9 hours (Previously also it was 7-9 hours)

Older adults (65 and older): Sleep range is 7-8 hours (new age category)

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU OVERSLEEP?

Of course, too much of everything is bad and this includes too much sleep. Here are the health effects of oversleeping:

Excess Weight Gain
Nobody wants to be out of shape, do you? The truth is that, You are more likely to be obese when you sleep continuously sleep beyond the appropriate time. A study has shown that long sleepers- people who slept over 9 hours are 21% more likely to become overweight  than people who slept within the recommended range. Therefore, we can rightly say that too much sleep can make you fat.

Stroke

A 2019 study published in the online issue of Neurology reports that those who sleep for more than 9 hours at night had a 23% higher risk of stroke than those sleeping less than eight hours each night. Additionally, it also found that people who nap for at least 90 minutes have a 25% stroke risk than those who nap for less than 30 minutes.

Headaches
Too much sleep can trigger headaches especially for people who are prone to headaches and back pains. We strongly discourage Snoozing longer than the usual time regularly, whether it's during the week, weekend or taking advantage of the holiday period to oversleep.  It’s safer to stick to a regular sleep schedule and not to oversleep. Notable amongst the many explanations on why oversleeping causes headaches is its effect on a neurotransmitter-serotonin.  Generally, serotonin helps induce sleep and keep you awake, and any interruption in the activities of the serotonin will result in headaches.

Heart Diseases

People who have excess amounts of sleep are prone to heart complications. Result from the Nurses’ Health study have shown that women who sleep more than 9 hours per night were 38% more likely to have coronary heart disease than women who slept eight hours.
Staying in bed longer than recommended can result in hormonal imbalance, making it difficult for your body to regulate stress. Example of such a hormone is the cortisol. The cortisol is a stress hormone released by the adrenal glands; it helps your body deal with stressful situations. However, if you do not stick to a normal sleep pattern, the activity of this hormone may be interrupted; affecting its ability to manage stress and consequently result in the buildup of anxiety and depression overtime.

Family / How To Go Back To Sleep After Waking Up At Night by Y4all: 3:15pm On Dec 17, 2020
Some nights are just different in so many ways. Some people are abruptly awoken by an unpleasant sound in the middle of the night. While for some it’s either a nightmare, the frequent tossing and turning, the need to use the toilet etc. that leaves their eyes wide open without the slightest knowledge of when to catch the next sleep flight. In our local parlance, we use the phrase “Sleep has disappeared from my eyes”, to describe this state.

However, this is a frustrating and exhausting experience, especially when you wish to catch some more Z's but sleep seems to be far away. Unfortunately, not only does this affect the quantity and quality of sleep you will get, it will also impact your productivity the next day.

Here are ways you can fall back asleep after waking up at night

Ignore the time
This seems like an impossible thing to do. It’s a common act to stare at the clock and watch the time slip away while we struggle to snooze off. However, this only makes it more difficult for you to fall asleep as it increases tension and anxiety. This is because your brain will be more active, making falling back asleep more difficult. Resist the temptation of checking the time, focus your mind on something else aside your desire to fall back asleep.

Try music
Do you remember how those lullabies lured you or your little baby to sleep? Ah ha! That’s the power of music. Beautifully, it works for people across or ages.  A beautiful soothing, slow music at night can get you back to dreamland easily. Interestingly, listening to music can help your body relax and prepare for sleep. This is because of its effect on the parasympathetic nervous system. Additionally, those pleasant sounds can penetrate your body, soul and spirit. It can slow your heart rate and breathing, reduce your blood pressure and calm your nervous system. Although, your music preference could also determine the effect of music on you.  Still, music enhances sleep and can work on just anyone.

Leave your phone
Some people quickly resort to checking their emails, chats, play games or see movies with their phones, once they have trouble getting back to sleep. Unsurprisingly, they find it even more difficult to snooze. This is because the brain becomes more alert, making sleep more difficult to achieve when we are exposed to the blue light from our phone. Literally, your brain is tricked into thinking its morning and therefore becomes alert and set for the day. In fact, sleep experts have recommended putting your phone away 2-3 hours before bedtime, so picking it up at the middle of the night is a complete NO.

Create a distraction
When you focus on getting back to sleep, your mind might be stressed out and you’d become too tense to sleep. You can doze off by visualizing a beautiful scene, recollect great memories, or repeat soothing lines, poems or songs till you go off. Also, try counting- repeat a circle of 1-10 or try counting backwards.

Use the meditation technique
Meditation increases your prospect of falling back asleep if you are struggling to. This is because meditating calms your mind. It helps lower your rate, foster slow breathing and activates the parasympathetic nervous system. These activities will help you drift to dreamland faster. You can do this by lying flat on your bed with your head stationed on a pillow. Begin with a few long slow breath-inhale and exhale slowly. Also, be sure your body is relaxed and close your eyes, so you would concentrate. This would help you snooze quickly.  You can also try the meditation techniques in this article: 8 sleep hacks to help you  fall asleep faster.

Get off your bed
Ok, you’ve been struggling to catch some Z’s for over 10-20 minutes yet it seems like an impossible feat. It’s time to get up. Lying on your bed doesn’t not guarantee a doze off, in-fact you only get frustrated and exhausted trying to sleep.  Because, your brain would adjust to sleeplessness on your bed. So, you’ve got to do something different: change your sleep surface, move into another room, read an interesting but not horrific novel with a dim light, and listen to music. Again, you can try a warm or cold shower depending on the temperature of your bedroom.

FINAL THOUGHT

Sleep is a fundamental part of life; therefore anything that robs you of quality sleep should be treated as urgent and important. While staying asleep is very important, falling asleep easily should also be very easy. For some people, the trouble to get back to sleep is a daily experience which may be due to insomnia. For such people, we recommend a visit to your doctor.  More so, you can get a sleep App to help you go back to sleep based on a doctor’s recommendation. We have also discussed in other articles how a mattress can affect your sleep. You can get a new mattress if your mattress is the culprit.

Family / Pillow(s): 5 Signs You Need To Get New One by Y4all: 5:15pm On Dec 14, 2020
How long have you been using your pillow(s)? Surprisingly, most people do not consider replacing their pillows a priority. But the truth is, in addition with your mattress, your pillow plays a vital role in the quality of sleep you get each night, and so, should be given the needed attention.

Pillows are designed for several purposes. Common place amongst its numerous functions is that it serves as a head rest. This means that every night, your pillow bears the weight of your head, this would eventually lead to sagging and discomfort. Also, while you snooze on your pillow, your pillow absorbs saliva, sweat, skin and hair, even body oil. Unfortunately, these materials will make your pillow smell, think of the offensive odour your pillow emits that makes you toss and turn all through the night. Although you can prevent this pungent smell by regularly washing your pillows.

Again, dust mites thrive on these materials-sweats, saliva and so forth and would result in allergies that could disrupt our sleep and also productivity. More so, your pillow like every other item has a lifespan, so, you would have to replace your pillow regardless, to enjoy a peaceful slumber each night.

Here are signs you need to replace your pillow(s)

Dust mite Allergies
Pillows are oftentimes reservoirs for dust mites, which causes allergies like sneezing, runny nose, itchy or red eyes, etc. When you constantly experience one or more of these allergies each time you wake up, then it’s time to get new pillow(s). These allergies can destabilize your day and also disrupt your sleep. Also, if you have allergies, replacing your pillow regularly should be a habit.

Aches and Pains
The right pillow will help position your head and neck properly, providing the needed alignment for your entire body. However, if you wake up with aches and pains in your neck and shoulder, then your pillow might just be the culprit. You should replace your pillow ASAP.

Uneven Spots
You most likely have noticed that your once beautiful and comfortable pillow is having lumps. Pillows get lumpy when they collect moistures, dust mites and dirt.  This is common with leather or foam pillows. Although you can remove the lumps through online DIY’s tips-pillow fluffing, this may not provide a satisfactory result. We recommend simply buying a new pillow(s). Moreover, there are high quality bed pillows that would save you from the stress and discomfort of a lumpy pillow.

Flat surface
Most persons do not realize the harm a flat pillow poses to their health until they begin to feel pains and aches in their neck or shoulder. A depressed pillow surface is a sign that your pillow has served its purpose and therefore you need a new pillow. Also, if your pillow does not stretch back to its original shape after you fold it, then you should get a new one. Also Read:https://www.wincofoam.com/things-to-consider-when-buying-pillows/

Tough or Permanent Stains
You don’t have to be stuck with a pillow with noticeable permanent stain, especially when a new pillow won’t cost an arm. We do not refer to stubborn stains on your pillow case but on the pillow itself. This can be an unpleasant yellow stain caused by a saliva or fluid which will eventually cause your pillow to smell due to decay.


Regular washing your pillows will prolong its life span but the truth is that your pillow won’t last forever. Ideally, you should replace your pillow every 2-3 years. Most importantly, you should replace your pillow if it no longer provides the needed support to your neck, head and spine.

Family / How Your Body Suffers When You Don’t Get Enough Sleep by Y4all: 11:31am On Dec 12, 2020
Sleep is one of the most valuable asset in the world. Many people strategize on how to achieve every other thing- think: professional certifications, career goal, business etc. but plan less to enjoy quality sleep.  Unsurprisingly, nature has a way of penalizing the culprits of sleep debt- daytime drowsiness, lack of concentration, low productivity etc. However, these are just a tip of the iceberg.

While you are likely familiar with the ‘common’ consequences of sleep deprivation, there are other surprising things that happen to your body when you are sleep deficient. This is because your sleep habit has a premium impact on everything you need to function in life-immune systems, cognition and what have you.  So, it will be right to say that your body suffers, when your sleep suffers.

If you still think having quality sleep- a recommended 7- 9hours sleep for adults according to sleep foundation, isn’t a necessity, here are surprising ways your poor snoozing habit affects your body.

Increase vulnerability to diseases and illness
Not having enough sleep would not only make you sick when exposed to a virus but will also affect your ability to recover from sickness easily. Industry experts have reiterated the correlation between insufficient sleep and decreased immune response to diseases and illness. This is because while you sleep your body repairs it’s cells, and infection-fighting antibodies also increase, consequently improving your immunity to illness and disease. Sleep deficiency will severely hurt your immune system and expose you to more harm.

Reduced Sex drive
Getting far below the recommended amount of sleep can negatively affect your sex life. This proves a strong link between sleep deprivation and sex. Most people unknowingly experience sexual dysfunction due to stress caused by sleep loss. The truth is that, when you are stressed, sex hormones such as oxytocin and testosterone is lowered or suppressed. This could result in lack of interest in sex and other sexual disorder. Additionally, not only does short sleep make you stressed out, you can also be too tired and consequently lack the energy for sex. However, as couples you can improve your sex life by improving on your sleep duration. Studies have shown that when you sleep longer-between 7-9 hours of sleep, your sex drive will be boosted.

It can lead to Diabetes

An estimated 463 million people have diabetes in the world and more than 19million people live with diabetes in Africa. There is a relationship between short sleep and diabetes. While lack of sleep doesn’t directly cause diabetes, not getting the right amount of sleep can affect the production of insulin. This in turn raises your blood sugar level, because of the lack of insulin that helps your body turn blood sugar into energy, thereby resulting in diabetes.  Getting enough sleep will help regulate your sugar level and prevent the risk of a type 2 diabetes

It can increase your risk of heart disease
Poor sleep can adversely affect your heart health. On the other hand, when you enjoy a quality sleep time, your blood pressure is properly regulated, this will reduce the risk for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, heart failure, coronary artery disease and so forth.

Increase risk of obesity
When you sleep less, you gain more weight. Studies have proved that people who sleep for four hours at night are prone to hunger and increase appetite for foods high in calories compared to those who snooze for 8 hours or more. Another reason for obesity weight gain due to short sleep can result in fatigue which will make you less likely to engage in any exercise that aids weight loss. Also, insufficient sleep will decrease the production of leptin and increase ghrelin, consequently resulting in increased appetite and more weight.

Family / How To Clean Your Bedroom Thoroughly And Efficiently: A Quick & Easy Guide by Y4all: 4:44pm On Dec 04, 2020
The hardest part for most people when cleaning the room is figuring out where to start. Weekends are usually dedicated to clean ups, and we could easily start with our laundry. However, after you toss your dirty clothes in the machine, crank up the timer and go back to your bedroom, you get stuck with so many frustrating questions such as: Where do I start, what do I clean first or when will I finish?
We understand how tiring it is to be stuck in the middle of nowhere, especially at weekends when you need to rest and get rejuvenated for the coming week through a good sleep. Therefore, we have developed a system that works perfectly and guarantees a cozy bedroom at the end. Let’s explore;

Pick up clutter
First, pick up clothes, shoes and other items that you might leave hanging around during the week while hurrying off to work or business. Clearing these clutters either on your cushion, bed or even on the floor will give your bedroom a refreshing feel. Also, clear up the table or night stand surfaces.
Get rid of the cobwebs
Cobwebs can find their way into anything in your room: curtains, fabrics, furniture’s, ceiling and corners. So, you would need to carefully get rid of these webs to be sure of a clean abode. You can use your local broom with a long handle, a long yardstick with a cleaning cloth attached to its end, or a vacuum cleaner to eliminate the webs.

Clean your fan blade/air conditioner
This is best done using a clean piece of cloth. These devices attract dust easily which can affect the air we inhale. You can use a dry cloth to wipe off the dust crust and a wet rag to clean it completely, whether it is a ceiling fan or a standing fan, this technique is quite efficient. It is important to note that the same technique may not apply when cleaning your air conditioner.
Dust all surface
Dust all surfaces; tables, nightstand and ottoman. Also clean every device in sight, TV, remote, gadgets and anything that attracts dust.
Wipe the window and mirror
Using clean water and clean rags, go to work at the mirrors and windows until every dust and stain is gone completely.

Wipe/dust the blinds and curtains
This can be achieved using a vacuum or rag, if you do not have a vacuum; you can use a broom to gently dust the curtain. Again, for the blind you can use a wet piece, rinse the piece after every wipe, to keep the piece clean and to prevent dust dirts.

Vacuum/sweep the floor
After the exercises above, you must have piled quite a huge amount of dirt on the floor, now you have to gently vacuum the floor, not neglecting those corners were your hand cannot reach. Do not forget to vacuum under your bed as a lot of people tend to neglect it since it is out of sight and end up accumulating a large amount of dirt. If your mattress is on the floor, clean all its edges, raise it up and dust its bottom.
This part is particularly difficult for people who clean their rooms using a broom; this is because sweeping in itself raises dust, which means you will have dust particles resting on surfaces you have already cleaned! So you might want to sweep first before you do steps 3 to 5. You might want sweep a second time after you finish cleaning surfaces just to be thorough.
Remake the bed
Take the time to try something new, so your room looks not only clean but new and fresh!

Reorganize
You might want to reorganize the contents on your nightstand and table; you might also want to change the position of the furniture in the room or the placements of clothes in your wardrobe.

Check your laundry
In all that time, your laundry must have finished washing, so all you have to do now is rinse.

Family / How To Know Original Winco Foam by Y4all: 4:47pm On Dec 02, 2020
Simply walking into a branded Winco foam store, or purchasing a mattress online because it is tagged Winco foam isn’t a guarantee that you invested in an original Winco foam mattress. A detailed knowledge of the product will help you differentiate between an original mattress and a fake mattress. However, most people do not realize that just as its important to ascertain the authenticity of a food item or medication before consumption, so it is  with a mattress. This is because a fake mattress is as life threatening as a fake medication or food.

Here's how to identify original Winco foam Mattress

So many people have been misled into buying a fake mattress because of the branding of the mattress. Ideally, a brand name on a mattress should help you make an informed decision as to the authenticity of the mattress. Unfortunately, the influx of fake mattresses into the market, branded with popular names, proves that a brand name or tag on a mattress isn’t enough proof of the originality of the mattress.

So, to be sure of a quality mattress that would improve your health significantly, you must look beyond the mattress tag. Here are tips to identify original Winco Foam mattress

Branded authentication label
A basic way to confirm the originality of a Winco foam mattress is through the branded authentication label sewn on it. Embedded in the label is a barcode that you can scan to access the authenticity of the mattress. Once you scan the barcode on any of the mattresses, you would get a prompt from the manufacturers confirming the originality of the mattress. This is much easier to scan if you are buying directly from a dealer or retailer, compared to an online purchase. However, the branded label still provides a level of assurance for an online buyer.

Branded edge tapes

Winco foam mattresses come with a branded edge tape that differentiates it from the fake ones out there. A tape edge refers to the fabric used to decorate or furnish the top and bottom edges of a mattress. So, as part of safety measures towards buying an original Winco mattress, you should check the tape edges to be sure it has the brand name on it.

Seal of approval
The Winco Foam luxury mattresses- Exclusive, Dianne, Supreme mattresses has a seal of approval to authenticate its originality. The seal of approval supports the brand identity and helps customers make the right investment. It also has a barcode to further boost your confidence in your decision.

Branded center label
This is an easy way of identifying an original Winco Foam mattress. It is wrapped around the quilted mattresses such as Elegant, Porch, Grandeur, Merit T&L and Orthopedic mattresses. The center label serves as both a decoration and a brand messenger.

Why a fake mattress is bad for you

You don’t have to be a culprit of a fake mattress before you take necessary precaution. Sleep is very crucial to your health, and the mattress you snooze on will determine the quality of  sleep you get. One of the glaring features of a fake mattress is the firmness level and weight. Authentic mattress brands tailor their mattress to meet the sleep needs of their customers, hence they fabricate the mattress with the right level of firmness and weight regardless of cost. However a fake mattress is made from a low quality materials in a bid to minimize cost and maximize profit.

Here are some reasons you should never settle for a fake mattress:

It disrupts Sleep

The idiomatic expression: sleep like a baby, is only achieved on a original quality mattress not a fake mattress. You’re most likely to toss and turn all through the night on a fake mattress, thereby disrupting your sleep quality. Moreover, you would wake up feeling exhausted and groggy due to insufficient sleep.  

Increase vulnerability to illness

We have in several articles discussed the importance of sleep to the body and the need to have a healthy slumber surface. Purchasing an unhealthy sleep surface will increase your chances of suffering from lower back pains, neck sprain and joint aches. Again, in a long-run, continuous use of a fake mattress will cause you other health problems such as: stroke, diabetes, heart attack and even body cancer due to the adulterated polyurethane and TDI used in the production.

Financial loss and stress

A fake mattress will cause you money and time. You may have to discard this mattress for a brand new authentic one, which will require an extra cost, time and effort. Understandably, identifying an authentic mattress will require much time and effort on your part, but shortchanging yourself is a greater loss. 

The best place to buy a mattress

To determine the best place to buy a mattress, we must first recommend buying a mattress from a reliable brand. It is worthy to note that your choice of a mattress should never be influenced by the popularity of a brand. The reputation of the brand should be a determining factor. While you may not be able to buy directly from the manufacturer or its depots, it is important to buy your mattress from an accredited distributor to avoid purchasing a fake mattress. 

You can use the store locator on the brands website to find a list of its accredited distributors. Also, if you desire a stress-free but reliable way to buy a mattress, you can order a mattress online. However, be sure the online store is reputable. We also suggest that you buy from a mattress brand that offers a free-sleep trial period to allow you test the mattress.

Unsurprisingly, daytime sleepiness is a common place amongst students due to poor sleep quality. Sleep plays a very vital role in learning and memory. For optimum academic performance, you need to sleep very well. A study on the correlation between sleep deprivation and academic performances amongst students shows that most students with lower average GPA reported very bad subjective sleep quality, had a sleep latency of 16-30min, sleep duration of <5-7 h>, sleep efficiency of 75%-84%, and experienced daytime dysfunction almost every day. These are number of ways sleep deprivation affects your grades:

Inability to Concentrate
Poor night sleep and consequent daytime drowsiness can affect your ability to concentrate during learning, resulting in low academic performance. Although there are other factors that can affect concentration such as poor nutrition, yet, lack of sleep can grossly affect concentration during learning. A sleep deprived person cannot learn efficiently.  To excel academically, you have to pay keen attention to every verbal and non verbal cue in your learning environment.  However, if you struggle to keep your eyes open, you will miss out on key points that will aid learning.

Poor memory retention

Adequate sleep will boost your cognitive skills, particularly ability to recall. The use of stimulants to stay awake in preparation for a quiz or examination result in poor retention due to lack of sleep. Sleep facilitates memory retention, and the quality of sleep you get will determine your ability to recall information. If you experience difficulty recalling information consciously or unconsciously, chances are you are sleep deprived.

Agitation and Stress
A low quality of sleep can oftentimes exacerbate tension and irritability.  You would increasingly get stressed out by the minutest activity around you. This will make you less receptive to new information, unable to recall information, and result in decline in academic performance. To perform optimally, your body needs adequate sleep- which is both restorative and refreshing. Most students reports an inability to recall information  after an all-night study in preparation for an examination or quiz.  They are oftentimes so tense that they forget almost everything they have studied, resulting in poor grades. This is because of the lack of sleep.

Increase risk to sickness

To function efficiently academically and otherwise, you need to be healthy. Sleep is crucial for overall wellbeing and reduces the risk of certain illnesses that can disrupt your academics.  This includes missed school days which can contribute to low grades. A lack of sleep will decrease the ability of the immune systems to fight against diseases that leaves you vulnerable to sickness.

Reasons Students Experience Sleep Deprivation
Today,  students are plagued with a number of distractions-cultural and social factors that steal into their sleep time, causing them to stay up late. The late night gist with peers, social gatherings-parties, all night study, homework’s and projects , part time jobs which most times are night jobs are activities that can limit your time for sleep.

Another cause of sleep deficiency is the prevalence of technology and social media, research has revealed that many students spend their sleep time surfing the web, playing games, listening to music, seeing movies and chatting an hour before they go to sleep. Consequently, the exposure to the blue lights from these devices also delay the release of sleep inducing melatonin, increase alertness and reset the body’s internal clock to a later schedule. Again, some students are in the habit of leaving their phones on while sleeping, with a tendency to reply calls, text or emails that disrupts their sleep.

Also, you may think that taking stimulants such as caffeinated drinks, caffeine, and drugs does the magic of keeping you awake to cram for the next day’s quiz. Unfortunately, studies have shown that this stimulant ruins your sleep and could affect your grades.

Family / 5 Selfish Sleep Positions Couples Must Avoid by Y4all: 4:32pm On Nov 27, 2020
Interestingly, while your sleep position reveals the state of your relationship, your preferred sleep position could also affect the quality of your relationship.  A study carried out by Professor Richard Wiseman of the University of Hertfordshire, revealed the most popular sleep positions for couples, with 42% sleeping back to back, 31% sleeping facing the same direction and just 4% spending the night facing one another. Additionally, 12% of couples spend the night less than an inch apart whilst 2% sleep over 30 inches apart. The wrong sleeping positions can ruin your relationship as they do not foster bond between couples.

For instance, 86% of couples who sleep less than an inch apart are reported to be happy with their relationship, compared to partners who spent the night further apart.  This is because the closer the couples during slumber, the easier it is to connect emotionally. Again, research has shown that being physically close to someone at any point of the day is likely to make you feel better, while touching someone releases happy hormones. Also, we can infer that couples who cuddle through the night are more liable to be happy in their relationships.

Let's explore the sleep positions that could affect your relationship:

Back- to- Back Sleep Pose
A survey by Doxy owl reveals that the back-to-back sleep position without touching contributed to divorce for 78% for couples. This sleep position is also known as the argument pose. Most couples after a disagreement or argument tend to sleep in opposite direction in unresolved anger. Laughably, no one wants to sleep on the sofa or on a spare slumber surface, so, they back themselves. You may feel comfortable with this position, however a back-to-back sleep position will eventually strain your relationship. Nonetheless, if your bottoms touch while sleeping back-to-back, it shows a sexual connection and a comfortable state.

Female spoon sleep Position
According to the survey by Doxy Owl, this is the most divorceable sleep position.  Still, spooning generally, is one of the most common sleep positions amongst couples, this is because it is believe to bring couples closer, indicates trust and a fair sexual position. Yet, only 18% of couples prefer this snoozing position. There are lots of spooning position, however, most men complain of being suffocated by their partners in the female spoon sleep position. This will consequently result  in arguments in the long run. So, while you may feel very comfortable in this position, it may just be a selfish way of enjoying your sleep if your partner isn’t comfortable.

Leg hugger pose
Sharing a slumber space with a leg hugger can be really annoying. Although this position calls for intimacy, as it is both enchanting and cute if  both couples legs are interwoven or are in contact most often, however,  this sleep position can strain your relationship if you are the only one doing it as the other couple may consider it stressful and disrupting.

Soldier pose
Ever slept in this position before with your spouse? than more than ever you adopt this pose when you are fighting with your spouse. Most couples who separated confessed to have adopted this sleep position before their divorce. This is a rigid position and does not give room for resolution.

Star Fish position
Star fish sleepers  spray their leg so wide in a bid to be comfortable to the detriment of their bed partners. They take all the space with only a small part left for their partner. While there are health benefits of dozing in this position, it is ideal for people who sleep alone. If you share a mattress with your partner, then this would be considered as a very selfish position. Interestingly, 73% of those who got divorced had a partner who space hog.

What is the Best Sleeping Positions for Couples?

Most people ask of the ideal sleep position for couples. The truth is, there’s no one size fit all when it comes to sleep positions for couples. Still, practice a sleep position that is comfortable and healthy for your relationship. Whether it is spooning, face-to-face or intertwined sleep position, the question should be: Does your sleep position strengthen the bond in the relationship?

Family / Tips To Rescue Your Sleep From A Snoring Partner by Y4all: 2:20pm On Nov 20, 2020
What’s more annoying than having your sleep disrupted by a sleep partner who snores? To think they are obviously having a “beauty sleep” while you are tossing and turning on your mattress unable to catch some sleep is even more frustrating. Truly, snoring is a common health condition that affects everyone, if linked to sleep apnea, the snorer experiences stroke, headaches, heart diseases and so forth, while the sleep partner or families of the snorer is often sleep deprived- this might result in low concentration at work or school during the day, anxiety, depression and fatigue.

Sometimes, as a solution, you may resort to covering your ears with a pillow but sadly, that’s not an effective solution. The fact is that, sleep is a very important exercise that helps restore our bodies and promotes optimal functioning the next day. However, being sleep deficient for whatever reason will not only have a toll on your health but on your relationship too.

So, you don’t have to endure or tolerate this sleep disrupting noise as this may ruin your relationship with your partner especially for couples. We have put together tips to help you rescue your sleep from a snoring partner. Let’s dive in

Sleep before your partner
Sounds simple right? The trick is to go to bed before your snoring bed partner does, this will allow you to catch some more sleep than usual. So, rather than struggling to sleep because of the unpleasant noise, you would have been long asleep. So what happens when they join you? Oops!!! Then you might be too busy having a beauty sleep in a 'far away dreamland' to be distracted by the noise or at least have few wake ups.  Nonetheless, you have a more quality night rest compared to other days.

Sleep in separate bedrooms

This is common amongst many couples and families; most couples sleep in separate rooms as a way to rescue their sleep from their snoring partner.  Again, some families create a separate bedroom for the snorer. However, this could strain your relationship in the long run. The snorer may feel isolated and inadequate which could affect your relationship. Notwithstanding, this could be a short-term solution, while you sleep in separate rooms you can also try other helpful tips.

Use ear plugs
Wearing earplugs is one of the most effective ways to protect your sleep from a snoring partner. Buy a high quality ear plug that can help you snooze comfortably all through the night. Ensure they are tight-fitting earplugs that won’t fall off in the middle of the night.

Get a white noise machine

Sometimes, you just need to drown out your snoring partner completely to have a peaceful slumber. Interesting the white noise machine will do the magic.  White noise machines produce continuous relaxing noises that can both drown out other environmental sounds and prevent a room from being completely silent. After all, sleep should be enjoyed and not managed.

Invest in an anti snore pillow for them or Place extra pillows under their head

After all, you are the victim and being sleep deprived would do you more harm than good. An anti snore pillow will provide elevated support for the snorers head and neck hence reducing snoring.  Most people who snore sometimes are unaware they snore and therefore do not make an effort to stop snoring while some snorers acknowledged they do snore but are unwilling to seek help, You can exchange their regular pillow with an anti-snore pillow, or place [url]=https://www.wincofoam.com/product/memory-pillow/[/url] under their head to provide elevated support for their head this will allow a flow of air, so you can have snooze comfortably.

Use humor and playfulness

Knowing that snoring is not a deliberate act, and can be very embarrassing when you are mocked.  You can help your partner stop snoring by deliberately playing around it rather than being hard on them.  In this way, you can record your partner snoring to help them acknowledge they have a problem if they are in denial, then, you can introduce helpful tips that can help them stop snoring.

I want to mention something over here and that is. While looking for a good mattress mattress also you should be aware of the fact that every one cannot sleep in too soft or too hard mattress and when they don't get their ideal sleeping configuration they end up having bad back pain issues. so for those people the best mattress for back pain are the ones which is medium firm. Going for a good medium firm mattress will help you to get the most comfort while sleeping. Most of the time a medium firmness level mattress comes with memory foam in it which is really important for a mattress that is dedicated for back pain patients only.

When you will lie down on a memory foam mattress it will automatically take the shape of your body keeping your spine aligned in a straight line. This memory foam will make sure that the ergonomic of your body is maintained or not while sleeping. Also while choosing a good mattress for your backpain go for the one that comes with breathability fabric because it will help to keep the air circulating easily which will eventually keep the mattress cool.
