But just now I walked in my room to get something and my boyfriend was sleeping. I walked over to him and softly kissed his lips. To my surprise, he kissed me right back. I know there’s no way he’s faking sleeping.. haha he’s snoring, and has to be up in 2hrs for work, and he’s hard as heck to wake up.

But him kissing me, can this just be natural? Does this come in sleep?

Are you worried that you are spending too much time thinking about things like this? Reading books could broaden your interests a little. the world is full of really interesting things to consider. certainly I wouldn’t waste much more time wondering how deeply your boyfriend was asleep. It doesn’t really matter much, and is certainly of very little interest to anyone reading through Yahoo Answers.

ii am 17 and ii often cannot sleep for a long time..

ii willl lay in bed and get comfy as can be and still cannot sleep =\

Don’t listen to the loser above me with the mononucleosis thing! Try drinking warm milk before sleeping it actually does help sometimes. Also maybe there’s something on your mind that’s not allowing you to sleep. I’ve had plenty of horrible nights because I was busy thinking about a problem try to release that by keeping a journal and letting that stress or whatever it is go. Listening to soft music might help. Someimes I literally have to concentrate on falling asleep because my mind is racing but when I focus on sleeping and don’t let my mind drift off I always get some zzzzzz’s! Hope this helps !

If you’ve ever admired women who seem to have abundant energy and wondered, “How do I get that?”

I have great news for you.

It’s easy for you to get all the extra energy you want and need-without strenuous exercise, time-consuming programs, artificial stimulants, or spikes or crashes. Impossible? It may have been in the past, but not now.

You see, no matter what you’ve heard from doctors or how frustrated you’ve felt, feeling tired is not natural, and you don’t have to be condemned to a life of exhaustion.

Because of the physical, mental and emotional grind in my life, I soon found myself stressed out, exhausted and increasingly sickly.

If you’re like most women I know, I don’t have to tell you what it’s like to be so worn out, you’re barely able to function. You know.it’s like trying to ride a bike uphill with flat tires or waking up so tired you have to drag yourself out of bed. You just can’t seem to get going.

Things got so bad that everything I enjoyed-painting lessons, playing with my daughter, and socializing-fell by the wayside. I had to give up what I loved doing to have enough energy for what I had to do, like going to work, reading cases at night, and caring for my husband and daughter-all while trying to run a busy household.

Life was less and less fun. I was barely eeking by, wondering when I’d finally collapse in a heap.

Do you often get dead tired? Feel like you’re always running on empty? Have trouble thinking clearly? Struggle with the blues? Look tired and slumped over? If that’s you, take heart. You’re not alone. And I can help.

Many of my clients tell me no matter what they do, they feel trapped in their fatigue due to circumstances and obligations.

In fact, when they come home from work or from being out, they’re so beat all they want to do is flop down in front of the TV. But they have an unending load of chores and family duties that somebody must do (guess who?).

For them-and for you-let me say IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY!

I have living proof. Today, My wife Kathy’ s 49, her energy and vitality are tremendous and it allows her to continue to work, tend to my family, and enjoy my favorite pastimes. Today, she is stronger and healthier, physically and mentally, than when she was in her 20’s.

How is this possible? And what did she discover that changed her life? In this special issue, I’ll tell you her energy secrets.

An energy breakthrough for women and men

In a moment, I’m going to introduce you to an amazing natural discovery called Tunguska Blast and Vital Heart. It’s one of the best energy formulations designed for women I’ve seen in over 40 years of practicing nutrition and Bio Chemistry. In fact, this natural supplement can.

help support higher energy levels
support short-term energy
promote energy you’ll enjoy all day long
help maintain your physical, mental and emotional energy at peak levels

But first, while you probably know most of the reasons why you feel tired, let me tell you about some of them you may not know. They’re problems that can leave you needlessly run down and flat out exhausted.

Let me start with.

A cause of tiredness and fatigue

I figured if anybody should know why she was so tired and beat down it should have been me. Yet for over three years, I suffered and nothing seemed to help me or her . Not more sleep. Not vitamins and herbs. Not exercise. Not eating the right kinds of foods. Nothing!

But I was determined to show her how to regain her strength and energy and mine too. She had too much living to do to be put on the sidelines. So I began to do extensive research into why we were so tired, and why so many men and women are often tired and fatigued.

What I found is a surprise to most women and men

What I found out is her finely tuned body has the amazing ability to produce energy from the nutrients you consume. That’s the key-YOU produce the energy. But if your body chemistry is even slightly out of balance, this energy is often locked-up, unavailable to you.

The good news is, as you’ll see in a moment, it’s easy to increase the natural energy you want and need.

To do so, you must first understand three key areas of your unique body chemistry that often get out of balance, leaving you physically, mentally and emotionally drained. Let me start with.

ENERGY SECRET NO. 1:
By age 40, your body may produce less of the raw materials you need to sustain long-term energy.
As I told you earlier, your cells can produce all the abundant energy your body needs. But in order to tap into long-lasting energy, you need the right raw materials.

Let me explain.

Each of your cells has little built-in energy factories called the mitochondria. It’s here that the carbohydrates you’ve eaten (in the form of glucose) produce ATP, the energy “currency” your body uses.

ATP fuels all of your bodily functions-those performed by your cells, muscles, respiration, and more.

But in order to make enough body-energizing ATP, your system must have two natural substances, Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) and Acetyl L-carnitine.

Are your cells
energy-starved?

You’ve probably heard about CoQ10, and may even take it. But even so, you may not know why it’s so vital for your natural energy.

CoQ10 is a nutrient found in every one of your cells. It provides the “spark” each of your cells need to turn fuel into energy.

Just like you can’t start a barbecue grill without an initial spark, your body can’t start without CoQ10.

That’s why I’ve included CoQ10 in the Tunguska Blast and Vital Heart formula. Nothing I’ve found helps ignite your natural energy more powerfully than CoQ10.

As you age, your body’s natural supply of CoQ10 diminishes.

But when you eat right, do moderate exercise and supplement your body with CoQ10 and other nutrients, your body can maintain a healthy energy level.

And just as important.

Your body needs
energy “fuel” to feel its best

Acetyl L-carnitine is also vital for energy. This protein-like substance made in your liver and kidneys shuttles fuel from the foods you eat to your mitochondria to be burned as energy, just like a subway shuttles people to and from various locations.

Your body’s natural level of Acetyl L-carnitine declines as you age.

Not having enough Acetyl L-carnitine is like trying to turn on a gas stove with the gas line blocked. You have plenty of fuel, but no way to get it to the stove. Having enough energizing Acetyl L-carnitine is like being able to turn the stove on full blast.

Best yet, when you combine CoQ10 and Acetyl L-carnitine with a healthy lifestyle, you’ll get a stream of long-lasting energy like nothing you’ve ever experienced before! That’s something that no other pair of nutrients can give you!

Eating right, getting a moderate amount of exercise and taking Tunguska Blast and Vital Heart formula can help unleash the long-term energy you need to.

keep up with all that you have to do at work, at home, with your kids and more
start off every day with zest and enthusiasm
be in a better mood all day long
go traveling or visiting with friends like you used to do
go back to school and/or take those classes you’ve put on hold
read that book you’ve been meaning to finish
redecorate that room you’ve had your eye on
rekindle the passions in you life (your husband or partner will love this)
tackle a big remodeling job around your home you’ve been wanting to
have more fun and be happier!
But there’s even more to the unique Tunguska Blast and Vital Heart formula.

A natural breakthrough that balances your brain chemistry, and keeps your mind clear and your memory sharp

If you’re over 40, then you may have had a few moments like these: You forget somebody’s name (isn’t it embarrassing?). You lose your train of thought in mid-sentence. You forget appointments. You sometimes feel like your brain is in a fog. Or you feel sad and you don’t know why.

I know. We both used to have moments like these-and so have many of my Friends. It’s not uncommon, especially with.

ENERGY SECRET NO. 2:
When you’re under stress, your body produces chemicals that zap your mental energy and motivation.

You’ve only won half the battle if your body feels energized, but your mind is in a fog. That’s particularly true for women who are under stress (who isn’t?) because stress triggers the overproduction of neurotransmitters (stress-managing chemicals) including epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol. With too much cortisol, you’ll find it difficult to think and your mood will be off.

It doesn’t have to be this way! When you support normal cortisol levels, your brain also functions more efficiently, and actually becomes more energized. That terrible mental fatigue will seem to dissolve.

Believe it or not, one of the best ways to promote normal cortisol levels and reduce stress is vitamin C. It helps in the production of several neurotransmitters such as serotonin and dopamine, which are necessary for optimal cognitive function.

But just reducing cortisol levels isn’t enough. To really restore mental energy, I recommend L-Theanine, a little known amino acid found almost exclusively in tea plants. It promotes a state of “alert relaxation”-so your mind will function at its peak but you’ll feel relaxed and less stress. So you can increase the energy that’s on tap in your brain, safely and naturally.

The most overlooked and misunderstood energy problem I see today

ENERGY SECRET NO. 3:
If your body chemistry gets too “acidic,” you’ll tire easily, have more difficulty thinking, and even become pessimistic.
Did you know that in a natural, healthy state, every major organ in your body works around the clock to buffer acids and keep your system slightly alkaline? In fact, virtually all of your cells and tissues contain significant amounts of buffering alkaline substances, such as minerals, oxygen and bicarbonate.

But over time, your body’s ability to buffer acids weakens. And if your cells and tissues are even slightly more acidic than alkaline, you tire easily and are often fatigued. Over-acidity causes your muscles to be fatigued and restricts your physical energy and stamina.

When friends and my wife were tested for acid/alkaline balance, I find many of them are too acidic-and thus, too tired. Why?

There are three main reasons: Diet, lifestyle and premature aging.

Let me explain. The standard American diet is highly acidic, with many foods such as red meat, vinegar, citrus fruits, alcohol, dairy products, refined sugar, soft drinks, and coffee containing large amounts of acidic materials such as sulfur and phosphorus.

To prove this point, the Economic Research Service of the USDA found that the average American eats nearly six times more acidic foods than alkaline foods per year.

Lifestyle can also cause your body to be too acidic. For example, if you’re under physical or mental stress (how many of us aren’t these days!), you use more nutrients and generate more acidic waste products than your body can process and dispose of rapidly.

Frequent airline travel (because of stale, recirculated air), vigorous exercise (which consumes oxygen and creates lactic acid), and over-the-counter medications (which are acidifying) also make your body more acidic-and more tired.

The aging process doesn’t help, either

In addition, as we reach our 40s and 50s and beyond, most of us experience a decline in our ability to balance our acid/alkaline ratio.

For example, oxygen is essential to keeping your body alkaline. Yet your lungs’ ability to take in oxygen declines one percent per year on average. It peaks for women at age 20, but by age 70, your oxygen intake is reduced by half.

What’s more, after midlife, the ability of your pancreas to secrete alkalizing biocarbonate starts to decline.

I know it’s tough to keep diet and lifestyle on balance. Because of your busy schedules, you may have to eat on the run like I sometimes do. When the kids are gone, it’s harder to cook for just one or two.

But the good news is.

You can reduce your acidity and revitalize your natural energy

So what can you do to better balance your acid/alkaline levels, reduce your acidity, and get more energy?

The answer is easier than you can imagine. Through my research and experience with my patients, I’ve discovered two simple ingredients that help maintain the body’s preferred alkaline state. Calcium carbonate and magnesium oxide naturally help to bring out pH levels back to where they need to be in order for us to feel and do our best. Without the right diet and sufficient intakes of these nutrients, our bodies will often rob it from where it can find it-most often our bones.

Most people I talk to have never heard about the over-acidity problem and how it can make them feel so tired. Believe me, they are very happy when they realize the problem can be easily solved.

As I’ve just explained, there are a number of ways for you to get more energy.

But the great news is that Vitalagy and Drink ACT combines them for the energizing results you want. Easy, too.

If it seems like you’re always on the go-and you end up each day dead on your feet, I know how you feel. Like you, I have a hectic schedule working, teaching, writing, and taking care of my family that makes it tough for me to always do the right things when it comes to eating, taking supplements and exercising.

That’s exactly why I want to share the breakthrough Vitalagy and Drink ACT formula with women like you.

As I’ve mentioned, it’s a unique combination of nutrients-based on the very latest research-and specifically formulated for us women. All working to help give you maximum natural energy helps.

Even better, it gives you all of these benefits safely, naturally, and easily!

I stand behind this unique formula and know it works because I take it every day myself. There’s nothing better that I’ve ever seen that gives you all the extra energy you want and need-in a natural, balanced, non-jittery way-than Vitalagy and Drink ACT.

Best yet.

What are your experiences? When did your baby outgrow this and how? Was it overnight or did you notice subtle changes?

No cry it out solutions please.

I also bf my daughter to sleep. After 7 months, I weaned her from the breast to a bottle. She still fell asleep with the bottle. By the time she was 10-11 months old, she would just be very drowsy by the time she was done with her bottle and I would quickly take the bottle from her mouth and give her a pacifier and put her in her bed while she was still slightly awake. Once she started putting herself to sleep after having a bottle, I started to wean her from the bottle. Now, at 14 months, she takes no bottles. I just give her a pacifier while she’s fully awake and tell her "sleepy, night, night" and lay her down in her crib and walk out and she puts herself to sleep. As I said, I started this process at 7 months and she’s now 14 months. It was a long 7 month process, but it worked for my baby in a natural way without any drastic changes. She has a lot of trust in me and is a very secure baby because of this. Good luck!

EDIT: I want to add that I used breastmilk in her bottles. I wanted to start weaning from the breast early because I felt that the older she got, the harder it would be and I was afraid of attachment issues…lol

Are you looking for ways to stop snoring?

Snoring is present in almost half of the adult population of the world. It is the most common cause of sleep disorder that affects people. However; doctors say most snoring is harmless and there are many ways available to stop it and these include losing weight, avoiding sleeping pills, tranquilizers, and avoiding alcohol.

Snoring is noisy breathing during sleep , it is a sound made in the upper airway of your throat as you sleep. It is a sign that air is not freely flowing through the throat passageway. Usually there is some type of blockage, such as swollen tissue, in one or more of the passages from the mouth or nose to the lungs. The noise of snoring is caused by parts of the nose and throat, in particular the soft palate, vibrating as you breathe in and out.

Most of the time snoring is considered not dangerous, but if serious it can become a life threatening sickness called sleep apnea.When loud snoring is interrupted by frequent episodes of totally obstructed breathing, it is known as obstructive sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is sometimes called the snoring disease because snoring is one of the symptoms. However , snoring is not sleep apnea, and sleep apnea is not snoring.You may have your doctor to check up for you to determine which is which.

Snoring , in my point of view , is perhaps more of a social problem than a medical problem. Why do i said that ? Because it hurts relationship , and it is disruptive to family life. Do you know that snoring is one of the main causes of marital disharmony ? That’s why there are so many people looking for ways to stop snoring.

There is a way with no surgery, no aids, no medication and no strips to stop snoring , it is something as simple as exercise .As we had already known that snoring is always caused by some kind of block in the breathing passage .Now ,no matter what blocks the breathing passage, the cure to stop snoring is always opening up the throat and getting rid of the blockage .So how do we do that?

There are exercises that designed to help a person to stop snoring. The Stop Snoring Exercise Program Will Cure Snoring Naturally by exercising the muscles in the throat ,tongue and doing breathing exercises can completely cure your snoring as having a weak tongue, throat, or jaw all block your airways.

Here is a simple exercise that opens up your throat… and removes one of the most common blocks that cause snoring: That is a tense jaw.

Let’s begin by putting your upper and lower molars together , then open your mouth pressing the molars as wide a part as you can, without stretching. You need to repeat this ten to twenty times…only focus on your molars. Putting the molars together and then lowering your jaw… like hinges on a door, for about 20 times in a row.

After about 5 to 10 times you will feel your jaw muscles strengthening and the back of your mouth opening up. This is the weak tissue that you are contracting, which you feel opening up your airways after the exercise .

The muscles you now feel contracting in the back of your throat… are one of the main problem areas in your snoring. So if you felt them opening up, it’s mean the exercise works . When the airways are blocked, the air has trouble getting into the lungs… and as it passes the narrow tissue, it starts “flapping” back and forth, which causes the loud snoring sound.

But strengthening the jaw alone won’t cure your snoring , because there are few causes for snoring , and often that combination of “air-blocks” makes your snoring not easy to cure.

If you are looking for ways to stop snoring , the stop snoring exercise program will be able to help you because they are directly aimed at your “weaker muscles”, which are blocking your airways… instead of removing them (like in surgery) or pushing them aside (like those incredibly uncomfortable devices they make you wear in your mouth).

There are almost unlimited numbers of things to do when bored. However, there are those who might not realize that. So here is a short list of some ideas to do to combat boredom.

Sometimes you are stuck while waiting. You can’t go anywhere or risk not making the connection, so you need to entertain yourself on site. Online games are a good alternative. The variety is staggering, and there are a great many free options available. Puzzle games, shooters, role-playing games and many others. Simply use your preferred search engine to look for whatever types of games you like to play. I was surprised to learn there are even paper dolls available for play online. I submit that there is almost certainly something out there for everyone.

Naturally, reading is always a good option. A good book can be enjoyed more than once, and even the most devoted bookworm will have classics they’ve not yet gotten around to reading. Books can teach, illuminate, distract, entertain, inspire, enlighten, compare and contrast. You can discover things that go together you’d never have thought of, like the way New Orleans links Zombies and Pirates.

Another option for in-place boredom defenses is the radio. There is a variety of music and news available. You can simply veg out while listening to whatever music is out there, listen to the news and commentary channels for enlightenment or to find out what the other side is thinking, and you can find a show on some subject you care about like cooking, investing, car care or almost anything else.

There are puzzles available. For those who can’t keep a jigsaw puzzle handy, or a puzzle toy, there are books of logic puzzles, crossword puzzles and various similar tasks. There are classic puzzles from the past and contemporary puzzles steeped in pop culture.

One that is surprisingly addictive is writing. This can be fiction, or speeches you may or may not ever give or even technical writing about something you either understand or wish to understand. You can write letters to old friends that you intend to send or that you can’t. Another option is to write a letter to an historical figure, attempting to explain something and everything he or she would need to know to understand the topic. This is a fine way to discover whether you really understand something on which you have an opinion.

A similar idea is to do a contingency plan. This can be something like planning a vacation you intend to take later, or a plan to implement in an emergency, like what would I do if my car tire blew twenty miles away from anyone else? This is a fine habit to develop, as these plans seem to make the issues you are worrying about less likely to happen, and when something does occur, it isn’t unusual to have a plan ready that can be adapted.

Many people don’t like the drudgery of cleaning. Yet it is needed, and life can be pretty miserable if it isn’t done. When bored, you can use this as an opportunity to go clean something you’ve been putting off. This also applies to home improvements and maintenance.

In this modern day and age, there are vast resources available at the touch of a button. You can look up something you’ve been curious about. Such as the world’s biggest ant bed or the tallest mountain in Antarctica. Much like children can enjoy browsing through an encyclopedia, the internet has free books, encyclopedias, magazines, comics and obsessive nerds who have no life, but who want to make their knowledge of their obsession available to anyone who reads it. We should take advantage of this wealth.

One of my friends knits, and insists that this is the perfect thing to do while bored, as it is both entertaining and productive. It requires dexterity and concentration, as it is annoying to find you’ve made a mistake that requires undoing a sleeve to repair, and yet, when you’ve completed a task, you have a physical result that you or someone else can use.

Another option is to simply give up and take a nap. Some of us simply don’t get enough sleep, and should take the opportunity when it is available. Sleep rarely does any harm, though you shouldn’t sleep so much that you knock your regular sleep schedule out of whack.

Finally, if you are having issues with lack of enough things to do, get out. Go somewhere and there are other alternatives available. Make a picnic, take a hike, go to the mall, or visit the beach. There are essentially unlimited possibilities out there, requiring only that you go in search of them.
