Relax...Exhale...Sleep

June 05, 2023 Rhoanne Urlanda

Welcome to Heart to Heart with Honeydew! This week, I give you a trick to fall asleep quickly, share some new research, and tell you a bit about my painful journey.

I have a sleep trick for you.

The key is to relax your entire body, starting from the top of your head down to the tips of your toes.

Relax groups of muscles in each area of the body as you move down, one group at a time. Start with your face, then your shoulders, arms, etc. When you get to your torso, take a big exhale...

Then do the same thing down your legs until you get to your feet and toes...and a big exhale.

Apparently, this trick works so well that even the US military uses it in some of the toughest situations!

REM sleep is great, right?

Well, yes. However, it was recently found that those with a little-known REM sleep disorder may be at a higher risk for Parkinson's and dementia.

Patients with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) will actually act out their dreams during REM sleep. This often puts them and their loved ones at risk for injury.

Recently, it's been found that over 70% of those with RBD end up with Parkinson's and/or dementia, and this sleep disorder may be the first symptom noticed.

Unfortunately, there's not yet much we know about this condition - but that just means there's room for more research. If you feel that you or a loved one are suffering from this condition, it's recommended to discuss your symptoms with a neurologist.

💗Hello, beautiful💗

We've got a ton of new faces around here, and I wanted to make sure you've all heard the Honeydew story.

In my late teens, I developed a debilitating back condition, and I was told by multiple doctors that surgery was my only option. Have you heard that before?

After seeking yet another '2nd opinion', I had a doctor recommend a certain type of mattress. Within 90 days, I was back on my feet, and quickly continued to improve over time. Ultimately, I regained all of my mobility - from a simple mattress

switch, and a few other additional upgrades - like a more supportive pillow! I've still never had surgery on my back, and I definitely don't need it now.

So anyway, you probably can already tell that I was a little inspired by how life-changing this was.

I quickly developed a passion for helping people improve their lives through sleep, just as I had.

In fact, my husband's family has been in the mattress business for years, so it was a logical step to start our sleep company.

We now get to spend our days helping thousands of people like you find the rest that they deserve, allowing them to live more vibrant lives.

So let me ask you...Are you ready to switch out pain for comfort? That old, flat pillow for one that's truly extraordinary?

Thanks for reading - Reply back and let me know your best sleep trick!

Love,

Evita
