I have a sleep disorder and have been diagnosed with both insomnia and sleep apnea. The result is that I am very often both tired and irritable during the day. I know that I always look tired, and I tend to turn to caffeine for help. One time on my way home from work I fell asleep while driving. OK, actually that has happened more times than I would like to admit.

On a whim I decided to go get another kind of opinion. I went to a homeopathic practitioner to see what they might suggest. She suggested several remedies, all of which were completely natural. They were all herbal things designed to get my body and mind back into balance. She said that I was not sleeping because of the whole balance thing and that was what needed to be worked on.

Another thing she highly recommended was a whole house air filter system. That wasn’t cheap, and neither are the IQAir Healthpro replacement filters. But supposedly these things will filter out almost all of the impurities in the air inside my house where I sleep which could help get things back in balance. I have to say that something is working though. I have been getting a lot more sleep than ever before. I still toss and turn and have trouble getting to sleep, but I am well over the hump.
