Sleep Much Better

High-quality EMF protection mat for healthy sleep, anti-electrosmog bed cover, protection against electromagnetic radiation, practical EMF shielding for bedrooms, optimal protection against electrosmog.

Sleep is active; it's not just about lying down and closing your eyes: there's much more going on.

And everyone sleeps differently.

It already starts

with the position, whether back sleeper, stomach sleeper, side sleeper.
It continues with the pillow (yes with pillow, no without pillow, which pillow, which material, how old is the pillow?)
to the mattress (too hard, too soft, with springs, foam, with silver threads, anti-allergy)
and doesn't stop at the bed frame (wood, pine wood, metal, aluminium, pallets, etc.)
and takes into account the stresses such as water veins, the correct alignment of the bed, and of course, whether the bedroom is a place of well-being.
Additionally, an open or closed window can be important,
as well as the noise level in the room, the temperature, and the humidity.

Why is this so important?

A 60-year-old person has spent an average of 20 years (1/3 of their life) in bed. This important place, where we spend so much time, should ideally keep us healthy and not make us ill.

Sleep is episodic – always several phases. A maximum of 5 sleep phases per night.

Sleep always follows the sun! Never the clock on the smartphone or the time zone (time change)
Shift workers have an extreme shift in their sleep rhythm
Sleep requires a rhythm
In case of problems, there are always disturbances in all areas

What makes sleep deprivation so dangerous?

Sleep deprivation and its consequences: Sleep deprivation is dangerous because:

we eat more salty and/or sweet carbohydrates due to a shift in the ratio of ghrelin and leptin
- Ghrelin regulates the feeling of hunger
- Leptin regulates the feeling of satiety
muscle growth is inhibited by the suppression of testosterone and other anabolic hormones
our muscle breakdown is accelerated by an increase in cortisol and other catabolic hormones
it makes us stupid
- every sleep-deprived person is already "borderline idiotic" by Friday Source: Grimm 2016, p. 33
- whether one smokes a joint, uses cocaine, or goes to work with alcohol in the system is comparable to how one behaves when sleep-deprived
- performance decreases, but one's own perception does not

A study by the University of Pennsylvania involving 130,000 people found that even with only slight disturbances, the risks increase for

obesity by 35%
stroke by 50%
diabetes by 54%
cardiovascular diseases by 98%

If you lie diagonally in bed in the morning or the wrong way round (head at the foot end), you may be avoiding radiation and should change the sleep position or the position of the bed in the room.

Sleepwalking and talking in one's sleep are also points that may be attributed to earth radiation.

Basic improvements

a bed should ideally be positioned so that the head points north and the feet point south
if this is not possible, the head should point west and the feet east
this alignment is related to the different energies of the earth, the north-south alignment, for example, with the earth's magnetic field and the North and South Poles
a bed should preferably be made of light, untreated solid wood and be metal-free. Beds made of pine, sycamore, ash, silver fir, and spruce are very good
ideally, do not sleep on spring mattresses, as the metal springs act like antennas
negativ wirkende Dinge sollten aus dem Schlafzimmer entfernt werden, wie z. B. medizinische Unterlagen, Bücher über Krankheiten und Krimis o. ä. (sofern es aufregend ist), keine Versicherungsunterlagen oder Medizinbücher unter dem Bett haben, keine ablenkenden oder störenden Bilder, Schmuck, Mitbringsel o. ä.
Mirrors are generally not ideal in the bedroom either

Technical sources of disturbance

More and more people are reacting sensitively to the radiation from technology. Technology is increasingly present in our daily lives. Not only mobile phones and Wi-Fi but also SmartMeters, which are being increasingly installed. And electronic devices directly on the body, such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, etc., contribute their part and directly transmit radio signals into the body.

So where are the sources of disturbance when we have eliminated these obvious problems?

are there high-voltage lines visible in the vicinity? how close are they?
are there power plants nearby? This includes all types of energy generation – including balcony power plants.
are there wind turbines visible in the vicinity?
are there stations or railway tracks nearby?
are there transmission masts nearby? Nowadays, transmission facilities can also be hidden in church towers.
is there industry in the neighbourhood? What kind?
what devices do I have in the house? Just walk through all the rooms and list all the technical devices.
do I live in a block of flats, terraced house, or detached building?

As hints of possible burdens, one can also orient oneself by nature:

are there trees in the garden or nearby that have grown strangely or have growths?

Radiation can come from everywhere, and the more people live around me, the more I am "gifted" with the radiation from hundreds of devices.

Let's briefly compare the radiation to a simple mobile phone ringing: I can handle the ringing of a single mobile phone well, but I can't handle the simultaneous, constant ringing of 100 mobile phones as well.

It's the same with radiation: where a body might still cope with individual devices, the radiation from many flats and hundreds of devices eventually becomes too much.

Solutions for all types of technical aspects and radiation from the earth

Regardless of where the radiation comes from (water veins, grid lines, Wi-Fi, 5G, mobile phones, etc.), a combination of Geopat units, Plug Generator and stickers can bring about a change in almost all cases.

This then also saves the need to rearrange the bed or take other measures. Network disconnect switches also become unnecessary.

What does the New Germanic Medicine say about sleep disorders?

The New Germanic Medicine is occasionally viewed with some scepticism because one wonders:

a) why "New" Medicine?
b) why "Germanic" Medicine?

Anyone who uses a search engine to look up "New Germanic Medicine" will find adventurous warnings, including references to latent anti-Semitism of the founder.

Whether and what is real about these discussion points is not the subject here. I am interested in whether there are approaches here that can explain sleep problems for the individual and what solutions may be available.

To answer questions a) and b), we simply say: "new" because it deviates from the usual medical perspective and assumes mental or psychological problems as the cause of the physical development of a disease, and "Germanic" to clearly highlight the origin.

Possible causes of sleep disorders according to NGM

Stress prevents one from coming to rest. The idea behind it: the person is kept awake to resolve the source of stress.
one is in the healing phase of a resolved conflict.
- However, the body keeps one awake at night because one is not yet strong enough to defend against possible predators. In these cases, it helps to give in to a need for sleep during the day.
- Es kann auch sein, dass die Heilungsphase sehr stark ist und der Körper vor einer Überforderung durch zu starke Heilungssymptome geschützt werden soll. Paradox ist, dass in solchen Fällen Kaffee vor dem Schlafengehen für einen besseren Schlaf sorgen kann. Die Idee dahinter ist: der Körper wird überlistet und denkt, es sei Tag und gibt seine Schlaf-Hemmung auf.
Sleep apnoea, i.e., short pauses in breathing at night, can be related to a mini-right-heart myocardial infarction. Here, one must look at what to do with the heart and diaphragm. To summarise briefly: all conflicts that "tear one's heart apart" should be resolved.
some people with sleep disorders also have a fear of losing control and of death. In these cases, one should try to come to terms with death, and loss of control can be managed quite well.

General solutions for sleep disorders according to NGM

sufficient exercise
spend the evening without a computer, TV, or mobile phone
do not eat too late
always go to bed at the same time and not too late (before 10 pm)
meditation techniques, sleep rituals, praying, healing breathing
as Bach flowers: Hornbeam, Impatiens, Olive, Star of Bethlehem
ensure warm feet (hot water bottle, foot bath, warm socks)
soothing teas, e.g., valerian, lemon balm, lavender
place a lavender sachet near the head
according to Hildegard of Bingen: eat 2 teaspoons of poppy seeds daily
CBD oil

Please consult your doctor if there are any uncertainties. Even these harmless hints should not lead anyone to independently change, interrupt, or abandon therapy with a doctor or alternative practitioner.

Sleeping pills

Sleeping pills should only be used in consultation with a doctor, and the following information should be considered.

Study finds link between sleeping pills and higher risk of death

Researchers from the Scripps Clinic Viterbi Family Sleep Center in California and the Jackson Hole Center for Preventive Medicine in Wyoming estimate that in 2010 between 6% and 10% of adults in the United States took medications containing active ingredients such as eszopiclone, temazepam, zolpidem, and other barbiturates.

According to the researchers, between 320,000 and 507,000 additional deaths in the United States alone in that year could be linked to the use of sleeping pills. Their data also shows that the percentages could be higher in some parts of Europe.

Those who took between 18 and 132 tablets per year had a fourfold increased risk of death. That's less than 2 tablets a month.

Those who took more than 132 tablets per year had a fivefold increased risk (taking them every second or third day).

"Perhaps the most striking finding was that an increased risk of death also exists in the lowest third of sleeping pill consumption. This is associated with a 3.6-fold increased risk of death for patients who take fewer than 18 sleeping pills per year," the authors of the study write.

Source: CORDIA research findings of the EU
https://cordis.europa.eu/article/id/34350-study-finds-link-between-sleeping-pills-and-higher-death-risk/de

This also means: anyone who occasionally flies intercontinentally and knows about time zone shifts or resorts to sleeping pills due to other difficulties already falls into this risk area very early with a 3.6-fold increased risk of death.

Sleeping pill as a solution? Rather not.

TÜV Rheinland (PMVA 1994) has shown the impairments of various groups of medications:

Sleeping pills (barbiturate type) – 3.6
Tranquillisers (benzodiazepines Valium Librium) – 3.5
Allergy medications – 2.6
Stimulants – 2.5
Painkillers (normal) – 2.2

1 = none, 2 = slight, 3 = significant, 4 = serious impairment

Painkillers are not as strong, but sleeping pills per se can be quite addictive.

How do sleeping pills work?

Many sleeping pills lead to reduced or shortened REM sleep. In the REM sleep phase, the brain processes all the information of a day. Learning processes take place.

This means: although we have more deep sleep phases due to the sleeping pill, we have fewer or shorter REM phases, which are so important. Thus, sleep is not as restful.

Sleeping pills make it easier to fall asleep or allow for uninterrupted sleep.

Over-the-counter sleeping pills are generally the less recommended preparations; it is more sensible to have something specifically prescribed by a doctor.

Prescription sleeping pills

Numerous benzodiazepines with different durations of action are available on the market. After taking a benzodiazepine, the reaction to external stimuli such as noise or light is reduced.

They have an anxiolytic effect, relax the muscles, and promote falling asleep or staying asleep. Short-acting benzodiazepines are prescribed for sleep-onset disorders, long-acting ones for sleep-maintenance disorders. In addition to their sleep-promoting property, they also cause:

Anxiety and cramp relief
Calming and muscle relaxation

This also explains their wide application in various medical fields (psychiatry, internal medicine, etc.).

Melatonin receptor agonists
Melatonin receptor agonists represent a new class of sleeping pills.

Barbiturates
Are now only used as anaesthetic medication or for epilepsy.

Chloral hydrate and clomethiazole
Chloral hydrate and clomethiazole are reserve sleeping pills used for intolerance to benzodiazepines. Their use should be limited to 1 to 2 weeks.

Findings from the sleep laboratory

What contributes to a good night's sleep:

Sleep needs regular! MOVEMENT (when do I exercise?)
SOCIAL CONTACTS (presence of people, lockdown, single) – for men, having a shared bedroom is better for sleep quality, while for women, separate bedrooms are better
regular SIGNALS and MEAL TIMES (can be variably adjusted by external signals) – wake up, go to sleep, eat, etc., at the same time as much as possible
GUT BACTERIA (own rhythm, serotonin, gut rehabilitation), gut flora, serotonin is produced 95% in the gut, so it must be in order
SECONDARY METABOLITES are sleep quality, sleep quantity (4 hours of sleep, 8 hours of sleep, etc.), neurotransmitter (possible formation?)

The best "sleeping pill" is basil:

extends sleep time more effectively than the sleeping pill diazepam (study: Askari 2016)
can reduce the subjective feeling of anxiety
beneficial for memory
no side effects!

e.g., as basil oil or simply as a salad in the evening (preferably with sunflower seeds, etc.)

Even better if everything has been previously in the Energy Bowl or on the Vital Pad been!

SCENTS

Lavender increases the proportion of deep sleep
increases drowsiness (good essential oils)
a few drops on the pillow
or lavender soap under the mattress/bed (scent anchor, physical anchor)
Women prefer lavender, men: you have to try it out

Vitamins

Vitamin B and its importance:

contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system: B1, B2, B3, B6, B12
contributes to normal psychological function: B1, B6, B9, B12
contributes to normal mental performance: B5
contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue: B2, B3, B5, B9
contributes to normal energy metabolism: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12

Our internal clock

How often does a healthy and normal person wake up during sleep? 28 times every night.
(Source: University of Regensburg, J. Zulley, sleep medicine specialist)

But we usually don't notice it. We are in a rhythm. Some people remember waking up briefly a few times during the night but falling back asleep immediately.

Our internal clock is incorrect because it is rather slow – a complete cycle of the internal clock takes about 24 hours, for some of us almost 25 hours.

It synchronises with sunlight – EVERY day. Hormones are the messengers of the internal clock.

Melatonin
Cortisol
Serotonin

Anyone with sleep problems who also works in an open-plan office will notice that the sunlight there is insufficient.

Cortisol – the stress hormone makes you age, gain weight, and reduces muscle mass.

Our brain and its frequencies

Brain waves in the electroencephalogram, frequency range (in Hertz)

1-4 = Delta band range = brain activity, mental state deep sleep
4-8 = Theta = drowsiness
8-12 = Alpha = alertness, relaxation, meditation
15-25 = Beta = voluntary actions, concentration
25-100 = Gamma = cognitive peak performance, extreme alertness, very practised meditation

In the brain, there are the SCN – Suprachiasmatic Nuclei. Two of them.
They absorb sunlight and then control our hormones.

Scans and regulates the following processes within us:

Body temperature
Hunger & thirst
Sex drive
Movement
Sleep

University of Michigan study: "...those who spend time in sunlight during the day go to bed earlier and sleep longer."

A sleep cycle usually lasts 90 minutes.
We wake up most frequently during the REM phase.
In the deep sleep phases, we have our rest.
The brain is in different phases Theta, Beta, Alpha during sleep.

From 3 a.m., cortisol begins to slowly wake us up.

Don't drink black coffee in the morning, better to delay it. If we take away the body's task of waking up with caffeine, we also condition the body in that way.

If we drink coffee about 30 minutes after waking up, it works much better.

To fall asleep, humans need melatonin, and to wake up, cortisol comes into play.

To fall asleep well, one must eat well beforehand.

Tryptophan is metabolised in the gut along with B3, B6, B9, B12, and Vitamin C into serotonin, and if magnesium, iron, manganese, and L-methionine are present, melatonin is formed.

Antibiotics damage the gut and cause imbalance.

The melatonin produced in the evening is related to the light-dark phase, whether we had sun, whether we spent a lot of time in front of the TV in the evening (not good), etc.

Sleep depends on many factors that can influence and change it.

Important brain messengers

To sleep through well, one needs GABA.

Glutamine (muscles consist of almost 60% of the essential amino acid glutamine, Vitamin B6 necessary) and glutamate (manganese necessary, zinc necessary) lead to:

GABA (calming effect as a neurotransmitter, essentially inhibits the signals triggered by stress reactions).

GABA is a semi-essential amino acid that works 30% in the brain.
GABA is a little wonder, it can be used in sports for muscle building and body fat burning.
During addiction withdrawal (warm withdrawal), there are high doses of GABA, GABA minimises the storm of thoughts at night and ensures concentration and performance during the day.

Effect:

most important calming neurotransmitter
stress reduction and sleep-promoting
mood balancing and pain-relieving
blood pressure lowering
regulation of muscle tension
relief of PMS symptoms
fat burning and muscle mass building
regulation of the immune and hormone systems, appetite and metabolism
