Don’t worry – you’re not the only one. Many people report not being able to fall asleep, or having their sleep interrupted due to hearing loud and incessant snoring.
Most people will snore at some point in their lives. A common cold or allergies may interfere with the nasal passage. Even too many drinks too close to bedtime can relax the tongue, palate, and throat muscles and make us unconsciously force air past those soft tissues, causing vibrations that result in a snore.
Your sleep health is not only linked to how long you live, but how well you live. Sleep intersects all areas of our health, mind and body. Yet, we so often overlook it as part of overall wellness.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has altered every aspect of American life, including health, employment, and education. The American Psychological Association warns that the negative mental health effects of the coronavirus will be serious and long-lasting.
Snoring can be costly in many ways. Relationships are the first to be impacted. According to a Better Sleep Council survey, 26 percent of people say they sleep better when alone than with a partner.
