from what the other person for a long time can not sleep. In addition, other sounds just interfere with normal sleep, wake them in the night, sometimes several times.

Most people tend to get rid of snoring, so as not to disturb others sleep, because they themselves like as he is not worried. But snoring can sometimes be a sign of more serious health deviation ... But let's get to the first.

Snoring Causes

Before we talk about how to get rid of, understand, how it is taken at all. These sounds arise from vibration narrowed walls of the pharynx. A hidden reason for their restriction that overly relaxed muscles that support them the soft palate and tongue. During sleep, these muscles, some people are so relaxed that sometimes interfere with normal breathing.

Most often snoring occurs with age, the aging muscles of the tongue and soft palate are weakened and can not as before to maintain the airway open. Although in some cases the cause of snoring can be congenital narrowness of the throat. The cause of shortness of breath, and as a consequence of snoring can be a deviated septum, polyps (tumors) in the nose or the same congenital narrowness of the nasal passages.

In addition, and an elongated uvula, and even malocclusion can lead to snoring. Who would have thought that everything is so interconnected. In fact, the health of our body as a single system. And the fact that someone has suddenly appeared snoring a reason - it is like a "signal" that there are some deviations.

Should I be concerned?

Not always. It is noted that it can make itself felt, and in people taking alcohol before going to bed. As is well known, under the influence of alcohol muscles relax, which causes the sleeper thereafter publishes snoring sounds. The same situation is very tired and a man with the body enough energy to keep the muscles (including the tongue and soft palate) in good shape. In such cases, when the snoring emerged once but not repeated, it is natural to worry about.

Another factor that affects the general health, can become obese. Mainly due to the fact that is deposited in the neck fat creates excessive pressure on the airways. First of all it is important to establish the cause, and then decide which treatment to choose for themselves.

Maybe treat snoring and do not need . if, for example, it does not affect the general state of health, and strangers he does not interfere. For clarification reasons, it is desirable to treat a sleep and otolaryngology, which conducted the necessary studies to recommend the most appropriate treatment.

Treatment How to get rid

Having analyzed the possible causes, you can talk about existing methods of its treatment. The most common cause of snoring is the weakening of the muscles of the soft palate and tongue. About surgical method will tell later. To begin MirSovetov share traditional methods of treatment. Firstly, you have to wean yourself to sleep on your back when the cause of snoring becomes a sink language.

On their own, of course, to retrain your body can not succeed. This is usually advised to proceed as follows: at night put on pajamas embroidered on the back tennis ball. Wait until your body is reconstructed, it will have about a month. Comfort during sleep, of course, will suffer. Still, if you care to get rid of snoring on their own without medication or surgery, it is one of the best solutions to the problem.

Unfortunately, sleeping on the side is not always a positive effect. The result can be such as to get rid not succeed, but only diminish its power. Then, in addition to the above method, you can use a set of exercises to strengthen the muscles of the tongue of the soft palate and tongue. Firstly, the movements of the tongue. First, try to stick his tongue forward, as it does, when to show the doctor a sore throat.

The more effort you put in, the better - you have to feel how tense the muscles at the base of the tongue. Repeat this exercise 30 times. Then, in contrast, the number of times try to do language movement back toward the throat. Second, you can work the jaw. Having about 30 movements of the lower jaw back and forth, you also posposobstvuete strengthen weak muscles.

How to get rid

Then take in the mouth of a subject and to hold power for 5 minutes. Do not expect quick results from these exercises. But if you repeat every day, morning and evening, will definitely become noticeable improvement. When in this way you get rid of snoring, then in the future it will be necessary only occasionally do these exercises in order to maintain the necessary muscle tone.

In order to get rid of him were also invented devices that are placed inside the mouth. Some of them are somewhat similar to the nipple for children. The effect of this method of treatment of snoring is based on the idea that language is constantly trying to touch a foreign object, located in the mouth, and thus remain in suspense. The second device is similar to the protective insert boxers.

But unlike her insertion is made for each individual so that the lower jaw has been continuously pushed forward. This is necessary in order to

Since ancient times, people are surrounded by an aura of mystery dreams, believing that they are sent to a higher power, and sought to interpret the dreams of the night the future. However, progress does not stand still, and many superstitions associated with dreams,

scientists could now be explained by brain research and methods of genetics. And with most of the conclusions they came to, according to Russian Orthodox Church.

Divination Joseph

About the interpretation of dreams there are many references in the Old Testament. In the history of the brothers sold into Egyptian slavery of Joseph prophetic dreams in general play a special role, and he is both a "dreamer" and as an interpreter of dreams.

The dreams of the biblical righteous in plant images (sheaves associated brothers bow sheaf associated Joseph), the astral (sun, moon and 11 stars - symbol of the father, mother and brothers - worship Joseph) transparently drawn forthcoming championship Joseph in the family . In the prison where Joseph gets slandered, his "inmates" are two notable prisoner - butler and baker of Pharaoh, and he interprets their dreams.

The butlers, who saw in a dream a vine with three branches, of which he squeezed the juice into the cup of Pharaoh, Joseph predicts that in three days he would be restored to his office, and asked him to tell Pharaoh about his innocence. Baker, who dreamed that on his head three baskets of bread dishes for Pharaoh, but the birds of their torn to pieces, Joseph predicts that in three days he would be executed, and the flesh of his rasklyuyut birds. Both predictions come true, but rehabilitated butler forgot Joseph's transfer request.

Two years later Pharaoh had a dream about seven fat cows devoured seven skinny cows, and dream about the seven good spikelets that devoured seven blasted with spikelets. The priests and soothsayers of Egypt can not interpret them. Then finally, the cupbearer remembers Joseph prisoner. Getting divination, he stresses: "It is not mine; God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace. "(Gen. 41, 16).

After hearing the two dreams, he argues that the next seven years will be particularly fertile for Egypt, and to be followed by seven years of severe crop failure. Auspex Joseph completely fulfilled, and the Pharaoh gave him extraordinary powers, putting "over all the land of Egypt." (Gen. 41, 41) - so great was in the old belief in prophetic dreams and their interpreters.

Blending dreams and waking

The first attempts to explore the dreams from a scientific point of view have been taken at the beginning of the XX century. The largest contribution to this, no doubt, belong to the German philosopher and psychiatrist Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud. Last I try to interpret dreams, guided by his famous theory of sexual desire.

According to him, most dreams can be explained by the secret sexual desires, complexes, human attempts to suppress its illicit public morality erotic fantasies. However, most scientists considered Freud's one-sided approach, pointing out that the dream does not only sexual desire but also many other factors. To them, it is quite obvious are the physical and mental state of sleep.

The veil over the nature of dreams opened a crack, when the opportunity to do an electroencephalogram - in other words, to record the natural electrical activity of the brain with the help of the head placed on the surface of the electrode.

Experts know that the dream of man is not uniform: it is divided into two phases - rapid eye movement sleep and slow. Dreaming visit asleep in REM sleep, which, as it is divided into parts and alternates with the phase of REM sleep. Thus, the dream is interrupted the process, it consists of small passages interspersed complete oblivion. And only after waking human brain collects dreamed pictures together.

Almost all researchers agree that we are not able to accurately reproduce the content of their dreams. The fact is that in the moment of awakening the human brain through the organs of hearing and vision begins to perceive the world around us - and the result is a dream mixes with reality. Working in another room TV, talk, noise coming from the street, may interfere with intricately into the fabric of a dream.

Man sometimes thinks with absolute certainty that he had a dream, but in fact some parts already in reality he conjectures. Another, no less important fact is that in the dream quite differently perceived time and space broken the causal relationships.

The man is awake, aims to build on the content of the laws of the real world. He instinctively nonsense smoothes and corrects inconsistencies, urging dreamed pictures under the laws of formal logic and distorting thus the plot of sleep. Finally, we must bear in mind the tendency of people to self-suggestion.

For example, a person survives the death of a loved one, dreams of an obscure way, to hear his voice and inspires himself that it was just late. During the study, more than 60 percent of those surveyed, after a detailed analysis of their dreams were forced to admit that many fragments of dreams they have become clear only after careful consideration and, therefore, guessing.

Thus, the researchers concluded that the interpretation of dreams can not be considered accurate because the person clearly does not remember what he had seen.

Recent studies have shown that the human sleep adversely affects the radiation coming from computers and cell phones.

Many people today have got a habit to put a mobile phone next to the bed or under the pillow, using it as an alarm clock. However, the phone is constantly connected to the transmitter and the radiation coming from him even when it does not say. Experiments have shown that radiation of cellular telephones, computers and other precision devices affect REM sleep.

It can not only make it distorted, but does deprive a person of the need for rest phase, which often leads to neuropsychiatric disorders. The most categorical researchers generally advised to remove the cell phones of the room where you sleep.
