Deep, Separative Sleep

The first building block For a Better Mind & Wellness Home is the use of an advanced sleep technology. Some sleep specialists estimate that fifty percent or more of the US population suffer from sleep deprivation. Sleep deprivation is more about lack of quality sleep than lack of hours of sleep. This distinction explains why some people wake rested and refreshed after six hours while others are still weary and bleary eyed after nine hours. The human body carries out many vital operations while sleeping. These include:

• Production of growth hormones and other chemicals.
• Assistance in brain development during growth stages.
• Regeneration and/or repair of damaged tissues.
• Recharging and strengthening the immune system.
• Helping the body fight illness.
• Preparing the body's energy stores for the next day.
• Removal of toxins in the body

To improve your MIND and sleep you can easily do this through the use of a Sleep System that employs Magnets, Far-Infrared , Negative Ions. You can put this sleep system on top of your current bed with out any hassles. By sleeping on this type of system you can rest assure that you are giving your body the best sleep possible and improving your bodies wellness.

• Magnets: Sleeping in a gentle magnetic field will reduce muscle tension, relax the body and decrease stress. However, magnets can help with more than just stress reduction. Magnetic health care products have been used to:

o Increase circulation
o Detoxify the body
o Accelerate the body's healing processes
o Stimulate the body's natural energy fields
o Relaxes body, lessen physical discomfort
o Balance body energies according to Eastern energy medicine practices

The benefits of these products are greatly increased when used during sleep which is the body's natural time to heal, recover and rejuvenate.

• Far-Infrared (FIR): FIR is a particular spectrum of light in the 5 to 15 micron range and between the visible and microwave spectrum's of light. FIR waves cannot be seen by the naked eye, but they can be felt. One of the unique properties of FIR waves is their ability to penetrate into body tissue. While normal heat waves heat by conduction (heating only the body's surface), FIR waves heat by actually penetrating one to two inches into the body. Deep penetrating FIR waves:

o Deliver soothing deep heat to sore and stressed tissues.
o Increases circulation & opens tissues (which in turn may reduce healing times for deep tissue injuries and help to remove toxins from the body).
o Reduce lactic acid buildup in muscles after exercise (and thereby speed the recovery process from strenuous exercise).
o Detoxification, neutralize other acidic compounds in the body (critically important for personal health owing to the serious implications of improper pH balance).

Fabrics with FIR ceramics embedded in the fibers of the fabric can absorb, reflect and emit FIR waves, which is felt as a gentle, soothing heat. Uniquely and importantly, however, once the storage capacity of the ceramics is reached, excess heat is allowed to pass away from the fabric and is vented. As a result, FIR fabrics can help you maintain a comfortable temperature without overheating. In fact, as long is there is space between them, two people under the same quilt can be comfortable at different temperature levels because the FIR ceramics react to the two heat sources individually.

• Negative Ions: Negative ions are found in their highest concentrations (up to 100,000 negative ions per cubic centimeter) near waterfalls or beaches, after rainfalls and in the mountains. Normal air contains 2,000 to 4,000 negative ions per cubic centimeter. The air in the middle of a busy city during rush hour may only contain 100 negative ions per cubic centimeter. Negative ions appear to benefit both physical and mental health.

o Some doctors feel negative ions decrease serotonin production by the brain and also reduce serotonin levels in the blood (this improves mood and overall sense of well being).
o Increase the body's ability to absorb and utilize oxygen.
o Negative ion therapy is used to in conjunction with light therapy to reduce the effects of seasonal affective disorder (SAD) in far northern and southern portions of the world.
o Negative ions may also improve appetite.
o There appears to be a correlation between an increase in negative ions and an increase in mental "alertness".

Pi Water

Do you suffer from: joint discomfort, obesity, digestive problems, headaches, stress, heartburn, depression, or sleep disorders. These are symptoms of inadequate water intake which has lead to chronic dehydration.

Water is the second most essential component of human life. Water makes up nearly 75% of our bodies and is vital for many of the complex chemical reactions that keep us alive. Only the best water will do. Pi Water was first identified in Japan over 30 years ago. Scientist found a remote area where a combination of geographical features produced water that had unusual properties. In this region, a narrow stream passes between two hills, one containing a material called magnetite, the other largely composed of calcium compounds. Japanese scientists discovered that the water had amazing results on the surrounding plants. Further research revealed that plants grown in the water grew faster and larger, animals who drank the water were healthier and grew to greater size and processed foods treated with the water stayed fresher longer and appeared to be in better condition than those not treated with the water. They named it Pi Water, "the water of life". Pi Water is an exceptional source of what your child's body needs. Pi Water behaves as an anti-oxidant in the human body due to its free-radical elimination properties. Pi Water also aids the body in oxygen absorption. Pi Water is less acidic than some tap water. Infusing water with Pi minerals often neutralizes the pH of water being treated, often bringing it to a pH of just above 7. Less acidic water is more in harmony with the body's natural fluids. SanTara Corporation believes that your best (and most economical) choice is to convert your own tap water in to pure, clean Pi Water through a process of advanced filtration and Pi mineralization that you control.

When your body thirsts it is indicating the need to replace water that has been expended in you alive. Ideally, you should drink at least eight 8 oz. glasses of water a day. Inadequate water intake can lead to "chronic dehydration" which can manifest itself in a myriad of ailments which may include:

joint discomfort
obesity
digestive problems
headaches
stress
heartburn
depression
sleep disorders.

Many people who practice whole health believe that ailments that are the result of "chronic dehydration" can be lessened and sometimes alleviated by drinking adequate amounts of water. It may be that you turn to sodas, bottled fruit juices, sports drinks, iced teas, powdered drink mixes or other "non-water" drinks to meet the water consumption needs of your body. Many of these drinks are diuretics and actually flush water from your body. In addition, many of these drinks are full of sugar, artificial colors and flavors, caffeine and other unhealthy substances. Through sweat, breathing and various excretory functions, the human body loses almost 3 liters of water each day. The fact of the matter is, turning to "non-water" drinks to replenish the lost water is impractical.

So, how about tap water? This may not be a smart choice. Most tap water comes from public utilities where the water may have been treated with chlorine, fluoride or even ammonia. Furthermore, this water may be contaminated with unhealthy metallic compounds such as lead, mercury, iron or ground contaminants such as PCBs, pesticides, herbicides or industrial waste runoff.

The state of affairs of tap water has led many to move to bottled water as the primary source of drinking water. Is this a better choice? Unfortunately, you're never sure what kind of water you're actually getting with bottled water. In some cases it's just bottled tap water. Furthermore, trusted bottled water is extremely expensive and can cost tens of thousands of dollars over just a five year period. For more information on bottled water.
