I know I do quite a bit of bragging about the positive feedback I consistently receive from clients concerning my programs. It’s gratifying to see positive results and know that lives are being changed.
Along with that, of course, are personal stories, telling me just how much one or more health issues can affect one’s well being. That means both physical and mental well being.
I recently came across an email from a woman telling me that she tried my Stop Snoring program as a last result before divorce. Eh? She had been suffering from sleep apnea with snoring as a side effect for years.
During sleep apnea, the airway is obstructed and one literally stops breathing several times per night. Some people with serious sleep apnea actually stop breathing over 100 times per night.
She had purchased several over the counter remedies, only to be disappointed. It wasn’t until a yearly physical that her high blood pressure, likely as a result of years of sleep apnea and snoring, was diagnosed.
Added to that was an unsympathetic husband who shared her bed and was routinely awoken by the sound of her either snoring loud enough to hear her from the next room or of her gasping for breath after not breathing for several seconds (another side effect of sleep apnea).
Of course one can be sympathetic to this husband who’s mental and physical health were likely affected, as he wasn’t getting a full night’s sleep each night.
His final solution was to tape her as she slept, snored and gasped and then to play the tape suddenly, unannounced while they were entertaining guests one night. Quite understandably, she was mortified. Quite understandably as well, she was depressed.
Of course the depression had started years before. Along with snoring and high blood pressure, weight gain was an added side effect. When one doesn’t get enough sleep, the body will get its energy anywhere it can, and that usually means food.
What this client didn’t realize is that along with snoring, high blood pressure, insomnia and weight gain, depression and personality changes are also side effects of sleep apnea.
So there were two people sharing a marriage and a bed who for different reasons, weren’t sleeping well at night and whos personalities and moods were definitely the result. My client with her depression and her husband with his passive aggressive disorder.
I suppose her obvious solution was to control the one thing she could – a bad marriage. Before she did this, however, she purchased my program and was pleasantly surprised to see immediate, positive results.
Eventually, her snoring, high blood pressure, weight gain and sleep apnea all disappeared. This, along with recent positive feedback and support from her husband helped her through her depression and spurred her to write to me.
I highly recommend that anyone suffering from mild sleep apnea or snoring try my Stop Snoring program. The program is all natural and best yet, it works!
