Sleep Disorder -- Need Help!!!!

I work for an advertising firm. I have worked very hard to get where I am today. Possibly, striving and struggling for years has made me very complacent and my health has suffered. I seem to have become a chronic sufferer of minor ailments like headaches, sleep disorders, digestive problems and other stomach infections. Over the years, my health has declined and my passion for work has declined. Visits to doctors have not helped much. I guess I need to take a break and seek some inner healing. Can someone help?

Re: Sleep disorders and diges

I guess you have pushed yourself too far to achieve the milestones in your career. In the process, you have neglected your physical self and denied yourself the care and good health. It is never too late. Take heart. You can always bounce back with great health all over again. http://www.lonstein.com/ is a site I came across. It is all about changing your mind through a method of Chiropractic programming. It aims at changing your old out dated beliefs for better living. I am sure you will find it helpful.

Lifestyle Change

Stress is a killer! I have been there. I was having terrible digestion problems, sleep issues, just felt bad and rundown all the time. I was only in my 20s it wasn't right. Doctors were useless - they could do nothing to help. They prescribed a few pills that just made me feel worse. I required a total lifestyle change, diet, stress management, regular exercise. I found a doctor that practiced naturopathic medicine and holistic healing -- a professional who treated my whole body and took my lifestyle into account. She did wonders for me. She spend hours with me, listening to my complaints and making practical suggestions, she didn't just give me a pill. I had to change my diet and learn how to stress less. I feel so much better. I never get sick anymore. I sleep so well. Healthy eating has made a huge difference in my life. It takes work to take good care of yourself. But it is soooo worth it.

Here are some good articles from the ADDitude website that might help:

I hope this helps, Dena
