5 tips for healthy sleep

Restful sleep is vital to our health and well-being. A poor night’s sleep can lead to exhaustion, lack of concentration and mood swings. To ensure a healthy night’s sleep, there are some simple tips you can follow.

Tip 1: Establish a fixed sleep routine

A solid sleep routine helps your body get used to a regular sleep-wake cycle. Try to go to bed and get up at a certain time every night. Also, a relaxation exercise performed before bed, such as yoga or meditation, can help prepare the body and mind for sleep.

Tip 2: Choose a suitable mattress and pillows

An uncomfortable mattress or pillow can lead to painful tension and trouble falling asleep. Therefore, choose a mattress and pillows that meet your needs and ensure a comfortable sleeping position.

Tip 3: Create a comfortable sleeping environment

A comfortable sleeping environment is an important factor for healthy sleep. Make sure the bedroom is cool, dark and quiet. Also, avoid the use of electronic devices such as smartphones or laptops, as the blue light of these devices can disrupt the natural sleep rhythm.

Tip 4: Avoid caffeine and alcohol consumption

Caffeine and alcohol can disrupt sleep and cause trouble falling asleep. Therefore, avoid consuming these stimulants before bedtime.

Tip 5: Exercise and sport

Regular physical activity and exercise can help improve sleep. Try to incorporate at least 30 minutes of exercise daily to adequately relax the body and prepare it for sleep.

Alternative Travel Pharmacy

Natural solutions

Finally we can travel again and redeem the incentive from Nikken:
We love to discover the world and we were invited to a 14 day trip with our children. The joy is so great.

Our goal:

We chose the Costa Blanca and chose 3 wonderful 5 star resorts.
1. Destination: Asia Gardens Hotel & Thai Spa in Finestrat
2. Destination: SH Villa Gardens in Altea
3. Destination: Las Arenas Balneario Resort i n Valencia
For me as a mother, being on the road with children for 14 days also means taking precautions in case you don’t feel so well.
Our natural holiday pharmacy is manageable and above all an all-rounder = can be used for a wide variety of aches and pains. :-)

 

Water supply:

It starts with the fact that we have our Pimag bottles with us for our excursions and the flight. The water bottle has an integrated water filter and thus we can always drink clean water no matter where we are. We don’t need to buy water anywhere – most importantly, we can avoid plastic waste. This is really great and the replenishment starts right after the security check at the airport.

Back meets airplane:

In Valencia we rented a rental car ( Sixt was very easy to reach, price-performance was right and it was uncomplicated).
The route to the Costa Blanca is picturesque. On the right the mountains, on the left the sea and in between the path is decorated with the most lush orange and lemon trees.
That was a gift for my eyes – but the ride not for my back.
Sitting in really uncomfortable places on the plane for a long time and then continuing your journey in the car is usually not pleasant.
I use the magnetic back plate, the Magflex, right from the start and can arrive at the holiday resort completely carefree. Perfect.

Are we in Bali?

The Asia Gardens Hotel is pure balm for the soul. We are there for 4 days. Kids and parents have their own rooms :-) and we are spoiled from the first minute. Wow… that’s what a holiday feels like after such a long time.
From morning to evening we can relax at the beautiful pool landscapes, walk for hours in the green garden and eat absolutely great. There is something to discover everywhere. Kois, banana trees, squirrels… Yes, we are in Spain and not in Bali… however, here we are in a certain microclimate that simply attracts wonderful flora and fauna. I wouldn’t have been surprised if a monkey had jumped through the palm trees ;-)

Nutrition on holiday:

On the subject of food: even on holiday I try to stick to the routine: i.e. barley grass juice ( natural green ;-) ) is available for the whole family. I then take this with me in the finished portion bags. This is super convenient.
At the latest in the SPA it completely blew me away. This peace, this beauty – a place to BE. This is exactly the place I wanted.

Feet conquer the mountain:

Continue to Altea and there you can walk and hike.
The mountain that starts behind the hotel is very tempting. In the daypack, of course, comes the filled water bottle,a snack to eat, plasters, a magnetic thaler, the rest is there anyway: we all always have the insoles in the shoes = our energy booster for the day and wear either a chain (relaxation for my shoulder) or magnetic bracelet.

Here we go:

A small tour becomes a big mountain hike that ends in 21000 steps. Certainly it is exhausting but our feet are doing well all the time. No burning or stinging. Juhuuuu… That’s a great experience with the soles.
After 5 hours uphill, downhill and through (yes exactly “through”) crawling a hole in the mountain and empty water bottles, was actually at the end of the mountain a fresh water source where we could all fill cool water again :-) . Oh, paradise can always be like that.

Sore muscles, that was clear, wasn’t it?

I, as a completely inexperienced hiker :-), of course had an animal muscle soreness in my calves the very next day, our oldest in the thigh.
I now had the choice between lying down and doing nothing ( and whining at every step ;-) ) or doing good for myself to be fit again quickly to discover the area further. We really had some great spots on our wish list.
So what else does our first-aid kit have to provide: We have the Magduo for a magnetic massage. So we rolled ourselves off again and again for a few minutes and then the sore muscles quickly disappeared again.

Sleep in foreign beds:

The hotel in Altea is beautifully located on the beach, but for my taste the beds are expandable and I always miss my mattress very much – maybe it is also some peace, because this time we share a family room. So I use my plan B ;-): the Back plate and the sleep mask. So my body center and my head gets complete relaxation and I am the closest fit and in a good mood.
The sleeping glasses darken everything and bring me to rest very quickly, as others can still be awake in the room. In addition, it does my sinuses good.
There are constant air conditioners running in the hotels and neither my head nor my nose likes that… is that also the case with you? With the eye mask I get energetic support right on the head, because there are also magnets inside. This is a real blessing.

Nature, Nature, Nature

Highly recommended are also the waterfalls in Altea. The sound of running water, the clear air, this beautiful nature makes us ground again and again and breathe deeply. Again, pure balm for the soul and fresh water for our bottles ;-)
The day was just to be happy :-)

 

 

Holiday blues:

After a week we continue to Valencia.
The hotel is an absolute dream. In front of us is a wide, long sandy beach. We again have 2 fantastic rooms and a wonderful view of the sea.
What do you do in such a great place.. correct: run, discover … and yet I’m not doing so well on the first day.
My stomach is getting in touch, I have a headache and I just don’t feel well. My 3 men then went out to eat alone the first evening and I made myself comfortable in my bed.
The Magflex – the magnetic plate – now came on the stomach, the sleep mask on the eyes and the magnet taler on the middle of the chest ( KG17). On this point, it relaxes me within minutes and brings me back into balance.
The next day starts fresh and lively and we discover the Oceanogràfic, the largest aquarium in Europe. Even parents are amazed.
Visiting the City of Arts and Sciences is a must. In the middle of the city and yet in the green nature and surrounded by a lot of water. Again a place to take a deep breath and relax.

Conclusion: Power gift

The connection to nature gives us strength, energy, lets us relax at the same time. Or how is it with you?

Why aren’t we always in these places?

Simply because we just can’t. But what we can do is bring this nature home.

holistic solutions:

NIKKEN offers solutions for exactly this. And that’s absolutely brilliant. This has brought us so much relief and reduced our “classic” medicine chest to ZERO.
We have simply turned our home into a wellness home where we can live healthy for 24 hours.
Our holiday pharmacy offers a natural solution for all occasions and that is very, very important to me.
We can connect holistically with nature, even if we are not directly on site.
How exactly does that work?
What is good for us in nature is the connection to the earth ( Earth’s magnetic field), the sun ( far infrared) and the good air (negative ions).
We need this to relax and to recharge our batteries. Simple but unfortunately not always feasible.
And that’s exactly why NIKKEN has integrated these elements into all its products, so that we can always have the feeling of “vacation”, so that everyone can always live in the best environment. A place to regenerate, a place to recharge, a place that preventively takes good care of us and reconnects us with nature.

Be grounded – grounden

Grounding/Grounding is a practice that lasts all the time and modern new discovery at the same time… Earthing means nothing more than living in contact with the earth’s natural surface charge – that is, being grounded.

We all live and function in an electric way on an electric planet. Each of us is a sum of dynamic electrical circuits in which trillions of cells continuously transmit and receive energy as part of their programmed biochemical reactions. Your heart, brain, nervous system, muscles and immune system are prime examples of electrical subsystems working in your bioelectric body. The fact is that all your movements, behaviors and actions are only made possible by electricity. 1

Kenkoground - EarthMost people are not even aware of their bioelectric nature or the energetic connection between their body and the earth’s surface. Many of us don’t even realize that we’re now decoupled from Mother Nature. Our feet and the rest of our body rarely touch natural ground. We insulate ourselves with layers of clothing, rubber soles, mattresses, various chairs and other things.

Through science, we know that Earth’s electrons are inherently negatively charged. We need to stay in touch with The Earth so that our bodies can absorb these electrons naturally and charge with them. When we are “grounded,” we have absorbed these useful electrons that “reduce electrical imbalances in the body.” Since our body, like the earth, consists mainly of water and minerals, we are electrically conductive to each other.

If you are electrically grounded, you will most likely feel more centered, stronger, more balanced, more relaxed and less stressed.

The most effective way to ground yourself is to feel the connection between your soles and the earth by standing barefoot on the earth, in the sand, or even on the seabed. We are moving towards the winter half-year with its shorter, darker and colder days. Surely you too would like to stay more in your own warm and comfortable four warmths now. No problem, because you can also eat at home. 2

In order to help us stay in doors in contact with the Earth, Nikken has developed its KenkoGround®. The product must be plugged into a grounded socket and has a conductive fabric. When we place it on our bare skin, it reinforces the effect that direct contact with the Earth, our source of natural energies, has on us.

With the KenkoGround® you can ground yourself at any time of the day, but at night in sleep is the best time. By grounding in sleep, the body benefits from 6 to 8 hours of continuous grounding at a time when it experiences most of its healing and regeneration. When you sleep on kenkoGround®, tap a stream of useful electrons from the earth. For an optimal result, make sure that your bare skin is in contact with the KenkoGround®.

Does a waterbed really make sense?

Bedroom pool or magnetic mattress

Most people who are considering getting a waterbed often do so because of their well-being.
You want comfort for your back – better to fall asleep and sleep through. They promise more luxury – because a night’s sleep is unfortunately an unfulfilled dream for millions of people.

Why we think waterbeds aren’t the best choice:

  • very high acquisition costs and time, depending on the quality for this long durability
  • Maintenance costs
  • Daily electricity costs
  • Maintenance and care
  • heavy weight
  • not breathable
  • increased sweating
  • simple disadjusting not possible
  • difficult to get up from the water cave
  • turning around at night is harder
  • Environmental aspect: electricity / electrosmog
  • no support for the body

in detail, this means:

very high acquisition costs and time:

depending on the quality, the costs are very high, for this there is often a long shelf life as thanks (with proper care).

The effort involved in setting up takes a lot of time.
A waterbed doesn’t even stand like that. 2-3 hours you should plan for at least the set-up and filling, plus the waiting time until the water is warm. That can take another 24 hours. It is important to note that the hoses are also cleaned during filling, so that no bacteria and dirt enter the water chamber. Otherwise it could start to mold.

– Daily electricity costs:since waterbeds are heated so as not to cool down, the bed needs electricity and permanently: energy and money. Depending on the installed heating system, there are also different daily costs

– Maintenance costs: Not only are electricity costs incurred, but the water inside also needs care – this is not unusual with the pool ;-)
Nobody wants the water in their bed to tip over and it starts to smell or algae start to form. .. Your bed or water needs care products on a regular basis. The shell in which the water is located should also be regularly maintained with special means. That takes time.

– heavy weight: up to 800 kg weighs a waterbed. When changing the water must be drained beforehand (pump or external company) and before such a bed is placed, one should check your insurance and know the load capacity of the floor.

– Non-breathable: Due to the lower bed, the moisture cannot escape down over the mattress, but upwards.

– increased sweating
If a bed is not breathing, it is almost pre-programmed to sweat. Sweating always causes restless sleep. You are taken out of your important sleep phases. So if you are already a nocturnal sweater one way or another, it is doubly worth considering how useful it is to buy a waterbed.

– simple disadjusting not possible; as with the weight ;-)

– difficult to get up from the water cave: the waterbed is held by a fixed frame. Water has the habit that if you want to sit down for example, the heaviest part,in this case, the buttocks, “down” hangs. The legs then hang on one side from the bed, the butt lies in the waterbed. Especially elderly people, people with a stressed back,who want one way or another little strain, have it not easy to get out of bed in the morning. The dressing in the bed or on the edge of the bed is also eliminated.

– turning around at night is harder : A waterbed does not support. Always the heaviest body parts are down. Turning around is much harder than in a bed with a supporting mattress. Many believe that turning at night is important and good for the body or spine. In the deep sleep phases, we don’t even get to know how often we actually turn. This natural turning is not to be confused with the nightly rolling back and forth due to poor sleep. This can be avoided by the right sleeping environment.

– Environmental aspect: electricity / electrosmog

With a waterbed? It makes the sum. People are consuming more and more energy, using more and more energy … In order for us to have these energies available in the form of electricity, huge quantities of fossil fuels are burned. This is detrimental to the environment.

no support of the body: the wonderful floating feeling deceives over time, because your body also wants to be supported. Even if you initially think that the spine is being relieved, the opposite is the case. The strong sinking can strain the spine and also hinder the important rotation.
Since as described above always the heaviest body parts sink down, one usually lies like in a hammock. In the long run, this is precisely the attitude that we are trying to avoid.

Due to heat:
If you want a waterbed because it freezes, there are great alternatives: warming bedding, dehumidified, warmed rooms, blankets that use the far infrared technologies (neither freezing nor sweating!) , warm nightwear and also hot water bottles.

What is the sensible alternative?

You want:

  • sleep through
  • recovering
  • Supporting the body
  • something breathable
  • high-qualitye-materials
  • long shelf life
  • Energetic support
  • Regenerate
  • be in balance
  • allergic friendly
  • stable yet easy to handle
  • without electricity
  • Easy

Our Naturest Kenkopad offers you all these advantages and more.

The magnetic mattress pads transform their current sleeping environment into a luxurious relaxation oasisin no time. Due to the balanced degree of hardness, a stabilizing “egg shell structure” layer and a precise support as well as technological (magnetic energy) on the state of the art,your body weight can be optimally distributed on the entire latex lying surface and your back as well as your general well-being weigh in balance. In addition, you can choose with the appropriate Pillow under the Duvet with long-range infrared technology.

You can find out more about our popular magnet mattress pads in our health guide and blog.
We are also happy to advise you personally on the topic of sleep.

A good day starts the night before.

We wish you a relaxing, quiet night!

Every crisis is an opportunity

It is our duty

While most fill their cars with toilet paper,
we focus on informing our fellow human beings.

In times of crisis as well as in these times, we have all the more the obligation to tell you what great possibilities the wellness home offers us.
The products and our business.

The current crisis presents us all with major challenges.
Many people are anxious and insecure at the moment. They don’t know what to do:
Health and professional.

In addition to the usual and well-known measures such as hygiene, fresh air and vitamin D, many people are also aware of finally taking responsibility for their own health again.
They want to PREVENT diseases and not treat them.

Enthusiasm

We want to inspire more people to take care of their immune system and their general life situation, so that we can be strengthened holistically. Not only today, but a lifetime.

What we do when there are challenges:
– First of all, live a healthy lifestyle. We have been doing this for many years. Living in a wellness home is a great advantage.
– Stay calm and destress: Anxiety is a stressor and stress exposes our immune system.
– Stay healthy:
Drink plenty of water, breathe clean air, sleep well and care for our immune system: Pimag water system/ Sportsbottle, Greenzymes (barley grass), lactoferrin and ciaga as well as our Kenkopad (sleeping in the magnetic cocoon) give us the necessary support. Meditations also help to relax.
– positive thoughts, dealing with loving people

Nikken offers us great products with state-of-the-art technology that can be easily integrated into any home and everyday life:
We would like to support you and offer our know-how. We are sitting right at the source.

In times like these, we are all the more grateful that we have the opportunity to work from home and be there for our children. Without stress, everything can be easily reconciled.

The economic consequences will be obvious.

In crises like this, the economy suffers greatly and, unfortunately, many jobs are lost. This is an unpleasant truth that we must accept. But even this is not a cause for panic, but an incentive to overcome this crisis so quickly, calmly, effectively and above all TOGETHER.

We want to open the doors to you. A global wellness community is waiting to be discovered by you. With very little investment and an excellent support system, there is a good opportunity to survive these times of change.

It is a time to learn, grow and discover.
Every crisis is an opportunity. An opportunity for something new and for change.

Let us therefore be responsible and relaxed.

Take care of yourself and stay healthy.

Body and mind, which means the connection for our mental health

How can the development of mindfulness promote mental health?

Our mental health is influenced by many factors. We cannot control all aspects of our environment, but the development of mindfulness is a good step towards more happiness and positive awareness and positive well-being.

What is the case for eating healthy, high-frequency foods°?

As N. Tesla said, “If you want to understand the universe, think about the concepts of energy, frequency, and vibration.”

°high-frequency foods are the ones that have natural, living vital substances in them. They give humans vivid energy, light, chlorophyll,enzymes and antioxidants.

We are more than our bodies. From a scientific point of view, we are an energy source held together by an energy field. Energy has vibrations, and the greater the energy, the higher the frequency of these vibrations. High-frequency foods amplify our natural energy vibrations. This helps us to reconcile with ourselves and to shake off negative thoughts. Foods with high vibrational energy include fruits, herbs, vegetables and organic nuts. In contrast, excessive consumption of low-frequency foods such as meat, poultry, sugar and also ‘dead’ foods, as well as highly processed, chemically or genetically modified foods or chemical additives, can cause damage to health.

Why is it important to stay hydrated?

When we dehydrate we feel physically uncomfortable, and our mental health can also be affected quickly. About 75 of the human brain is made up of water. With insufficient fluid supply, the circulation and thus the blood and oxygen supply in the body slow down. Even minor dehydration affects how we feel. A loss of 2.5 means a drop in efficiency and energy by as much as 25. That’s 1/4!

If we can’t think clearly, it’s hard to be really mindful and to experience happiness consciously. So drink clean and lively water regularly.

Why is exercise so essential for mental health?

There is growing evidence that physical activity and exercise could alleviate symptoms associated with a negative state of mind. “Sport makes you happy” you say not without reason. Exercise can contribute to the improvement of self-image, social skills and cognitive functions as well as to the reduction of anxiety. Go out and take a walk in the fresh air, go swimming or ride a bike. You will quickly find that this makes your attitude more positive by itself.

  • how about going for the beginning every night before dinner or during your lunch break?

Why is sleep so important?

We all know that our brains don’t work 100 properly the day after a night out. Lack of sleep makes us feel mentally exhausted, overly emotional and simply not comfortable in our skin. Try to get eight hours of restful sleep every night. Introduce regular rest periods and go to bed at the same time every evening. Try to get up at the same time every morning (even on weekends!), and don’t look at your phone or other electronic devices before you fall asleep, as they keep your brain awake and prevent you from really relaxing. Sleep as dark as possible.

Why is positive thinking important?

The law of attraction says that we get back what we radiate. If you want to attract joy and happiness, you must make a targeted effort to spread these messages yourself. Focus not on what you don’t want in your life, but on what you want. Set meaningful goals and try to make every day the most wonderful.

  • Affirmations help you get motivating thoughts:
  • Every breath gives me new strength.
  • I am valuable.
  • I draw into my life the people who are good for me.

Why is selflessness beneficial for mental health?

Doing something good for othershelps not only others, but also yourself. When you build a relationship with others and invest your time to help them, a positive mood arises that strengthens your determination and well-being. By working for other people, stress can be reduced and both physical and mental health can be improved. This leads to a sense of balance and lightness and allows you to increase your confidence, happiness and optimism. By helping other people, you end up making your own life happier and more fulfilling.

  • offer your partner a massage
  • Help older people shop
  • support children with patience to learn new things.

The possibilities are endless.

 

In order to achieve mental and physical well-being, different aspects of our lifestyle should always play together.

Strengthening your immune system – now even more so!

A guide to how to gradually build and maintain their immune system.

A healthy immune system does not require much – but regularity.

Our support tips on how to strengthen and keep your immune system strong:

1: Drink water:

  • drink alkaline water
  • We need a body that is basic.
  • If your body is acidified, it has many, many effects psychologically as well as physically.

Effects if your body is acidified:

  • Insomnia
  • Overweight
  • Skin
  • Joint pain
  • Infection-prone
  • Hypertension
  • Hair loss may occur

alkaline water will flush your acidification out of your stomach and intestines and clean you from the inside.

Drink enough water. It is important that your body is well hydrated. Dehydration starts enormously fast and has a big impact on all parts of the body.

Our liver, for example, consists of 90 water. The liver is, among other things, our detoxifying organ. If our liver is insufficiently hydrated, we cannot detoxify and acidify. When we acidify, it acts like a metabolic brake.

2: Lactoferrin:

Lactoferrin gives us incredible protection inside. Especially your intestine sbenefits and thus your body and mind again, because a healthy intestine also has positive effects on your phsyche.

Lactoferrin can kill bacteria by removing the iron from you. Since bacteria are essential to iron, iron impoverishment has an antibacterial effect. In this way, support can be provided to the body in order to protect itself from infections and inflammation.

3. Greenzymes

Greenzymes is a barley grass powder.

Bio-Jade-GreenZymes offers a combination of vitamins and minerals, antioxidants, enzymes and more. It helps to balance the pH as it is extremely basic and supports and strengthens the immune system

4. Ciaga

Ciaga is Organic superfruit juice concentrate made exclusively from organic fruits.

  • High ORAC values: The ORAC value is a parameter for indicating its antioxidant ability. Antioxidants can render free radicals harmless. Sometimes there can be a chain reaction and a multiplication of free radicals in our body. This process is also known as “oxidative stress”. However, free radicals or oxidative stress in large quantities can significantly restrict the function of our body cells and weaken our immune system. That is why it is important to supply our body with so-called antioxidants.
  • Provides the body with vital nutrients and antioxidants.
  • Highly concentrated fruits with natural anti-inflammatory properties.

 

With these 3 dietary supplements you are well supplied. So that they can be processed correctly by the body and transported to the place where they belong, it is important that you provide them with a reliable means of transport.

Silent water!

Other factors for a good immune system are besides the dietary supplements:

  • No stress
  • balanced, healthy lifestyle
  • Movement
  • fresh air
  • good sleep
  • be in balance.

No stress:

this is easier said than implemented, but stress is the number one trigger when it comes to the development of diseases.

Through stress, we weaken our immune system and a weakened immune system inevitably leads to diseases.

If we have permanent stress, i.e. for months, recurrent diseases – such as increased susceptibility to respiratory infections – become more serious problems.

Those who are stressed need to water and supplements, especially a restful sleep.

Restful sleep is anything but comatose sleep: “somehow get the night around” and in the morning with coffee to some extent so that the day can start.

Restful sleep means it promotes your immune system and thus helps you stay healthy!

You need a sleep,

  • who takes you into the deep sleep phases and lets you linger there,
  • who gives you back the energy you used during the day
  • which makes you rest deeply, for only in deep sleep is learned and experienced processed processed.
  • Nikken offers you these energies. Nikken is aware of the enormous effects of healthy sleep on our health. Sleeping in a magnetic cocoon is an incredible soothing experience that you don’t want to miss when you learn the positive effects it has on you. Night for night.

The better you relax, the better you can provide for your immune system.

In summary, you can do the following for your immune system:

Night:sleep in the magnetic field cocoon

During the day, you’ll be using the water from the Pimag Waterfall at home and in the office, and on the go you’ll drink water from the sports bottle with a water filter – this even filters out microplastics.

In addition, in the morning or during the day and possibly in the evening, you take the dietary supplement: Lactoferrin,Greenzymes and Ciaga to optimally support your diet.

In order to be supplied with the important magnetic energies during the day, we recommend the insoles. The magnetic field is activated with each movement. Only the soles make a noticeable difference.

With these few products you are well supplied and can rebuild and stabilize your immune system step by step.

Your body is worth protecting and Nikken products offer us all the essential energies needed to do so.

Why do we recommend sleeping masks?

Total relaxation for a restful sleep

Your eyes say a lot about you – especially whether you have gotten enough sleep or not!

Sleeping masks can promote a relaxed and restful sleep – by creating an environment where your eyes are protected from light.

When we sleep, it should be as dark as possible – even if we have various aids for darkening windows, we often find ourselves surrounded by disturbing light sources.

Why should light sources be avoided at night?

Especially artificial light can disturb our sleep. This can be the light from the PC, mobile phone and also television.
If we are often surrounded by this light, it can even cause sleep disturbances.
Our sleep-wake-rhythm is interrupted and we prevent our body from staying in deep sleep for a long time.

By using sleep masks you are not dependent on external light influences and can enjoy your sleep in peace everywhere.

Who needs a sleep mask?

Basically everyone benefits from a sleep mask. Sleep can be improved in no time and we all need a healthy sleep.

But there are also people who benefit especially from sleep masks:Why do we recommend sleeping masks? 2

People who

  • much travel
  • work in shifts
  • work irregular hours
  • have trouble sleeping
  • sensitive to light
  • are prone to headaches or migraines
  • want to set a sign of calm; because whoever has a sleep mask on, shows clearly that he does not want to be disturbed now and needs time for himself.
  • have a partner at your side who likes to read in bed for longer periods of time or watch TV or be busy with other media that emit light sources. The melatonin hormone is extremely important for us, as it is partly responsible for our deep sleep. All night long.

 

A sleep mask makes it easier to sleep for several reasons

 

  • It supports your body to produce sufficient melatonin in a natural way.
  • it lets you sleep in and through undisturbed. You wake up more rested.
  • It protects you from light. Even the smallest light source can sometimes be disturbing. Sealing off light sources helps you to relax
  • your eyes can relax while you sleep
  • it is practical for traveling like in an airplane, train or car.

 

Why do we recommend sleeping masks? 3Melatonin and the sleep mask

The melatonin hormone is extremely important for us, as it is partly responsible for our deep sleep. All night long.

So if you produce enough melatonin, you sleep much better. Melatonin is secreted in our brain but only as long as it is dark at night. As soon as it perceives light, production stops, the day-night rhythm is disturbed and it can be very difficult to find your way back into deep sleep.

How does a sleep mask help with migraines or headaches?

Anyone who has ever had severe headaches or migraines will know it: you want to shield yourself from light, among other things. Light does not support well-being in this situation at all.
A good sleeping mask keeps the light sources away from the eye 100% and helps it in these unpleasant moments.

What advantages should a good sleep mask have:Why do we recommend sleeping masks? 4

  • it should not leave pressure marks on the face
  • soft, pleasant on the skin, so that they can be worn for hours
  • Be breathable
  • be ergonomically shaped so that it adapts well to the contours of your face: it
    be easily adjustable in width
  • complete, reliable shielding of light sources
  • the recess on the nose should be large enough so as not to obstruct breathing
  • Easy to clean: contact with the skin should make it possible to clean the mask for hygienic reasons.
  • Small, compact and light – with a practical protective bag for on the way
  • Magnets / magnetic field

The advantages of a sleep mask with magnetic technology:Why do we recommend sleeping masks? 5

  • the magnet technology has an improved depth effect
  • increases the effectiveness of a natural energy field

Even though it is known today that insufficient and especially “bad” sleep can cause physical and mental problems, it is still a problem.

The Kenko PowerSleep™ sleep mask can help you to improve the quality of your sleep and to rest well during your travels.

Our sleep mask conclusion:

Unfortunately, the number of sleep problems is increasing. Sleep disorders have a strong influence on our well-being.
Among other things, technological development is also involved:
We ourselves are bringing more and more light sources into the bedroom. Apart from the television, many people still spend their evenings with their computer or mobile phone and if not us, then perhaps their partner.
That is why we should protect ourselves from the light sources.
An absolutely dark bedroom would be best. A room of peace with a very good mattress or pad, a supporting pillow and a temperature regulating quilt.
Disturbing light is prevented by the use of an eye mask and a restful sleep is no longer in the way.

Self test:Why do we recommend sleeping masks? 6

Do the test once and put your warm hands (rubbing together beforehand) on your eye sockets and be quiet for a moment and enjoy the peace and quiet. Do you think you could find peace and quiet with a sleep mask?

Sleep problems: Stop your thought carousel and find your relaxation

Sleep problems, thought carousel, you are awake and still somehow completely exhausted?
Why don’t you sleep and how can you solve it? Lack of sleep has become one of the biggest health challenges.

We’ll give you tips on how to solve your challenges.

The benefits of your good sleep:

– You better digest information and memories. Our mental and physical well-being improves noticeably. Stress and everything caused by stress is relieved.
– by sufficient and good sleep, your immune system can be strengthened. The sleep hormone melatonin is a natural anti-aging agent.
– our pituitary gland produces a growth hormone especially at night. This is responsible for activating our muscle repair and tissue growth.
– by sufficient sleep we reduce eye rings and our skin looks fresh and rested

Who is responsible for your relaxing slumber?

Our “inner clock” is a pea-sized gland that produces our hormones. The pineal gland. She conducts many processes and is responsible for our biorhythm. Especially involved in our sleep is the hormone melatonin. Melatonin is controlled by light. So if it is always bright in the evening, your retina transmits to your, the small but very important gland, the information that not much melatonin has yet to be released. The result is that your body does not come to rest.

What are sleep killers and how to replace them to get into sleep:

  • Often heard and so much true: laptop, mobile phone or TV have nothing to look for in bed and bedroom. Also, if you just want to send an email or check the weather app for tomorrow very briefly: Spend this activity outside the bed and end it so that you can do something relaxing before going to bed.

  • Watch your favorite series every night?

    Possible through Netflix or Amazon prime. But that has a high price. You pay with valuable hours of sleep that you miss the next day. Series always have the habit of ending in such a way that you absolutely want to keep looking. They tempt you to want to see more. Often you think about what will happen next and have no thoughts. Try to reduce your TV consumption in the evening and set conscious times for it.

  • facebook, Instagram and other social channels

    are all too tempting to scroll through. An endless loop. Advertisements that are supposed to tempt us to go back to other sites to discover them. It chases you one time-eater after another…. These channels come like “see and be seen” and not recommended for your thoughts and for your recovery. Consider whether this really fills you and makes you happy. How about social media fasting on some days or even a longer period of time? Use the time to read, play with family, or share. Your real life can be so much more colorful and fulfilling if you want it.

  • You lie in bed and your thought carousel doesn’t want to end? Sometimes they turn your thoughts so fast that you lose track of them. You can’t concentrate anymore. You feel full in your head and empty at the same time. And actually you would have to sleep. Take a piece of paper and pen, take a deep breath and write down your thoughts. On the note out of mind. Write about your plans the next day, write down your thoughts from the previous day. Always write down something that was especially pleasing to you that day. Even if it’s “little things” like the friendly “Good Morning” from the newspaper seller or the blooming flowers in the garden. After that you will be able to sink into your pillows with relief and no longer need to worry. Everything is on your note.

  • Relaxing is only possible with time. Time for you! You don’t think you have time?

    Then create space for yourself: Of course you are indispensable for your family and you can also do many things best. Honestly, no one wants to make you mad. That’s why you do everything. But is that really the point? It’s ok if others don’t do the things you need to do as fast as you or otherwise. Try to give up to have more time for you. What can you give? Dog walk, dishwasher and clearing, laundry on – and hanging up, covering the table, bringing out garbage and you can certainly think of so much more. Think about it together. Your family will be happy if you trust them and take responsibility. For you, this is a huge gift of time. Time to put your feet up, time to have a cup of tea in peace, time to do nothing.

  • Next keyword “do nothing”. Doing nothing is hard for you?

    What do you do when you have “time”? If you’re on your phone and check the latest posts, make phone calls and scour the kitchen at the same time On. The phone call goes longer and you sweep the house by the way? Pour the flowers, start cooking or put the laundry together. In addition, the next day is planned. Wow. We can’t congratulate you on your “I can-everything-on-once-and-then-still-fast”. Without breaks, you will sooner or later break yourself. And you certainly know that. It’s important to think about yourself and try not to do anything. Yes, it’s hard when it’s part of everyday life and yes, you’ll make it. I know this all too well. Let go, give up and take care of yourself. I had to learn hard again “do nothing” and enjoy the nothing thing again without having a bad conscience. To rest relax and will let you sleep again at night.

  • Nicotine, coffee and alcohol:

    This sounds like a normal stock of your everyday life – at least in part? There is the morning coffee, the interlude coffee, the break cigarettes, the afternoon coffee, the visit coffee, the “oh-what-shoulds-I-am-tired-and-must-wake-coffee” and in the evening there is the evening beer, the “I-must-relax-beer”, the visiting wine, the Friday evening wine and the weekend alcohol, the “today-was-a-shit-day drink” and the “today-was-a-mega-day drink”, as well as “it-shines-the-sun-cocktail” and also the “today-is-it-cold-mulled wine”. Is nitdifficult to have to live without alcohol for years ;-) Alcohol, coffee and often cigarettes (because you are so stressed) run through our everyday life. Over weeks, months and years. Alcohol promotes falling asleep – but strongly prevents sleep. It confuses your sleep rhythm and you wake up the next day. You don’t even have to drink a lot of alcohol to notice it the next day in any form. Coffee consumption won’t let you relax in the long run, nor will nicotine. Our solution: Try not to drink coffee too late and not excessively. Everyone can cope with coffee differently. Replace it partly with tea or decaffeinated coffee. Alcohol fasting acts like true miracles for your body and lets you see things more clearly and leads to a more conscious consumption. How about a challenge with your partner or friends. Enjoy the next month alcohol-free… There are wonderful non-alcoholic cocktails and great drinks. We have recipes for this on our blog. Well, and the dear nicotine.. that this is unhealthy, you know. You just put your worries away for a short time – you can’t get real relaxation with it.

  • Sometimes you’re stressed in the evening and don’t know why?

    Reflect your day. What happened to you, what got you off the rails, what bothered you? If it helps, write down your thoughts.

  • You crunch with teeth at night

    and otherwise feel as if you have a complete Body tension. Tension simply does not allow you to sleep well. Ask your partner to pamper you with a massage. This relaxes, brings peace and at the same time couple time :-) Warm relaxation baths with essential oils are also supportive. How about then cuddled up in bed with an audiobook for muscle relaxation. Conscious on and relax helps to let go of your body.

  • And what if you’re actually in a good mood, weren’t special incidents and you just can’t sleep like that? The good thing is completely normal and happens. Sometimes not being tired is fine. Here we advise you to do concentration exercises in bed: Lie down, take your hands on your belly and breathe in and out quite calmly. The light is of course switched off. We want to get tired ;-) Your job is to focus only on breathing. Not on the ticking of the clock, the creaking from the stairs or any other noises. Try it out. At first it is not so easy to stay with oneself and not to let his thoughts digress. Over time you get better and better, you come to rest and you will fall asleep blessedly.

  • What does your bedroom look like?

    Make your bedroom comfortable. Spaces on, unnecessary Crimean scramble disappears in the cupboards, dirty laundry is not lying around on the floor, it is ventilated, a relaxed scent floats in the room (e.g.: lavender: it relaxes and also helps additionally against moths ;-) ), candles for a cozy atmosphere and gentle light … even if you think that you are “just sleeping” in the room, this room should get a lot of attention from you. The bedroom is the space where we spend most of our life and he deserves to get a cozy, warm look so you can look forward to this space. Every day and every night. This feeling will be transmitted to you and you will be much more relaxed in your bedroom and sleep.

  • The temperature makes a lot of impact.

    Do you know this: to fall asleep, the feet are cold, under the ceiling you start to sweat, after some time it is without a blanket but again too frosty. A constant to-and-uncover begins. You don’t come to rest. In the worst case, you’re even awake again. Tip: Look at your ambient temperature: How warm is the room? 16-19 Celsius are optimal. Do you have enough fresh air, what material is your duvet cover, duvet and pillow? What is your mattress like? All very important factors that contribute to a restful, good sleep. Products made of breathable cotton and other natural materials such as latex or bamboo regulate the temperature. Mattresses with bumps allow the air to circulate, massage and at the same time have less room for mites.

  • Allergies:

    are you allergic to dust or dust mites? Make an extra look at a clean bedroom, plenty of fresh air and equip yourself with allergy-friendly sleeping systems. This gives you and your body the necessary rest to sleep.

  • Are you the classic candidate with the cold feet?

    Almost all year round? Sometimes the hands or the tip of the nose are also affected? Welcome to the club. It is not only women who are concerned and it can have many different causes. Let’s exclude the too short duvet and also any illnesses is usually the reason that you have low blood pressure and/or not as much muscles that can warm you. Heat bottles and socks have proven themselves. Please make sure that they sit looseandly and do not lace up anything and that they are made of natural material. You sweat in plastic. And that leads to you freezing again.

  • make your bed in the morning:

    1. Have you already completed a task and 2. You will be happy to go into a made bed every evening.

  • all well and good and what do people who work at different times and therefore simply cannot get regularity in their sleep and meal times? Shiftwork is a special challenge for your organism. All the more important that you find and use relaxation rituals for you as well as fixed rituals in relation to sleeping. You should try to put the sequence of shift work well: from early over noon to late, in between it is best to take a few days off to adjust to the early time.

  • Rituals, rituals, rituals:

    Rituals help us for a lifetime. They give us security. They give us inner peace because we know what to expect. Rituals can be re-instilled at any time. Find out what time is good for you to go to sleep and be fitter in the morning, pick some of the suggested tips and try to integrate them. Read, paint or listen to an audiobook? 9 or 8 hours of sleep? Tea or hot milk? Walk or sport? Massage or hot bath? Look at what appeals to you and try out and be patient with you. Try to relax and trust you and your body.

  • Are you noise and or light sensitive?

    Then earplugs and a sleep mask could help you. They shield you from disturbing noises or light sources. Your visual muscles can relax. When the brain perceives total darkness, it increases, as already mentioned, the production of melatonin, the hormone responsible for sleep. Often the eye area is affected by stress and tension, which can lead to early skin aging and wrinkles as well as headaches. Sleep masks help to calm the mind and thus provide a deeper feeling of relaxation. You don’t have to become a yoga guru, just drink herbal tea or read poetry books or become an athlete to sleep relaxed. There are good alternatives for all these points. So does a walk in the fresh air, audiobooks, relaxed, quiet music and a glass of water.

  • Does this mean no more stress until your lifetime, just so that you can sleep well?

    Well, we can’t choose that, and sometimes we can’t influence that. On top of that, each of us is stressing other things. Your body tolerates stress. There is also positive stress. Stress can drive and motivate you. Times, but not permanently. If you have too many stress factors in the long run, your sleep, your everyday life, your life will suffer at some point. All alarm bells should be raised and your personal everyday life should be very critically eyed and things changed. Changes are possible every day. Here and now.

  • Your body doesn’t relax immediately?

    You’ve read so much about it and learned how to rest so that you have the option to sleep well again and it doesn’t want to work out right away? Give your body time. You’ve been feeding him with stress for years, ignoring the signs and probably running over many stop signs. Your body needs to understand that you are serious and really want to relax. He needs to change and learn to relax again. Your body is a complex system that deserves to rest “in peace”. Be patient with you, breathe and trust yourself. You will be able to relax again.

A magnetic field …. NO: Our magnetic field

Our biological processes in the body are controlled by magnetic fields. People, animals and our earth have a magnetic field. Also the cells, molecules and atoms. Almost everything.

So why do we know so little about “our” magnetic field?

Who works with magnetic fields?

In many cultures, magnetic field therapy is widespread and ubiquitous. In India, Japan, China and also in the USA. Many, many case studies and testimonials show that treatment with magnetic fields takes many complaints and is very effective, even without side effects. As a matter of course, magnets are used as an alternative.

In Europe, the method of treatment is becoming more and more widespread, but it is still a rarity and often still a foreign word – after all, one is used to “healthy” or suppress the symptoms only by means of medicationand and to regard it as “healthy”. Magnetic field therapy is one of the alternative medical methods that does not belong to the classical training of a conventional physician.

There are too few meaningful clinical trials for European standards that “definitely” demonstrate a success in treatment.

What are the findings of the consumer in the antibiotic? Yes, the bacteria are killed, and all of them are killed. In the moment wanted and successfully achieved. The many good and the bad are destroyed. But there is no explanation of the doctors, which are the serious consequences, if one dissolves bacterial richness in the intestine and does not replenish with important good bacteria. Antibiotics are often prescribed far too lightly. And there are countless of such medical examples.

Chronic discomfort is on the rise. What solution does conventional medicine offer us? More medicines?

In the field of sport, however, the Image result for kenkotouchuse of magnets is also increasing in the Western world. Athletes cannot and do not want to treat themselves with medication for many reasons, as long as they have a good alternative. Among other things, it is extremely important for an athlete that he and his body regenerate in the shortest possible time, from competitions and injuries, in order to be ready for use again as quickly as possible. Your body should be able to retrieve 100 power again. All this offers him the magnetic field arpaie – side-effect-free.

Athletes know their bodies and immediately feel what is good for them. They are good ambassadors for the power of magnets.

Magnetic treatments for acupuncture, acupressure or massage

Magnets or magnetic patches,are preferably glued to certain acupuncture points, as these have been shown to influence the energy flow in the meridians (conductive or energy pathways) in the body.

In the area of the magnetic fields, ions (small electrically charged particles) are set in motion. As a result, the energy flow which then spreads further through the meridians or other tissue structures. Due to the increased energy flow, energy blockages can be dissolved.

Scientifically tested effects of magnetic field therapy

Magnets increase oxygen in the blood. This is health-promoting and vitalizing. This in turn has an effect on the stimulation of the Circuit. They support our immune system, help the body regenerate and help the cells to regenerate. The magnet has a relaxing effect, this has an effect on digestion, (binding) skin, muscles and sleep as well as a balancing effect on blood pressure.


Magnets or magnetic fields can be helpful in reducing stress. Far more than 60 of all illnesses are due to stress.

Chronic stress is the trigger for inflammation in the body. Therefore, magnetic field therapies can reduce chronic inflammatory processes in the body. Chronic inflammation always has a detrimental effect on the body and is the beginning of many diseases such as autoimmune diseases, thyroid problems, ulcers, etc.

Many people have helped magnets,where our classical medicine only had a permanent solution with medicationors or operations were the way out.

Why do magnets have a positive effect on our cells?


Magnetic fields set ions (more) in motion. The movement also has an effect on our electrolytes (substances such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium, etc.) that are in tissues or body fluids. The increased movements stimulate many small chemical processes. Electromagnetic activities take place in and between cells.

Due to the more intensive movement of the ions, the cell membranes become more permeable and important (nutrient) substances can thus be better absorbed by the cells and consumed substances can be transported better. These processes are not only good for our cells, but also have the effect on our entire body and organs!

What are magnets used for today?

  • Blood circulation promotion
  • Pain (e.g. back, head, etc.)
  • Wound healing
  • (Muscle) Relaxation
  • Stress
