"HOW TO SLEEP WHEN YOUR WORK IS ON YOUR MIND" Excerpt from "How to sleep without pills" --------------------------------------------------- Mr. S. wasrepparttar account executive of a big advertising agency. His day consisted largely of a series of conferences, all of which both he andrepparttar 113809 agency considered at least as important as a convocation ofrepparttar 113810 United Nations. At night there was a client to entertain or a client's radio or television show to listen to and worry over. Byrepparttar 113811 time Mr. S. was in bed he was so tense that he tossed halfrepparttar 113812 night, rehashingrepparttar 113813 day's work, reconsidering his decisions, and in general, making himself as unfit as possible to do a good day's workrepparttar 113814 next day.

Thousands of business executives take their work to bed with them, believing that with a little midnignt mulling, difficult problems will suddenly solve themselves. Occasionally this may happen, but it can't happen if you make a habit of taking your work to bed with you, if you toss and turn, fruitlessly considering decisions in a state of tension, and finally become panicky and fail to get enough sleep.

SOLUTION

Worrying over your work night and day won't make you richer, but it may make you die sooner. It's even bad economics. For example, a $100,000-a-year executive who dies fifteen years prematurely has lost $1,500,000. Isn't it good business for such a man to ask himself whether his nightly wrestling with his work is going to net him an extra $1,500,000?

Mr. S. once believed that taking his work to bed was necessary to his career. Byrepparttar 113815 time he came to me he wanted to break this habit, but couldn't.

His first step was to learn that sleep really begins at 8:00 a.m. If you are tense all day, you will be tense at night and payrepparttar 113816 penalty of being unable to sleep. Mr. S. had to be taught to relax duringrepparttar 113817 day.

At first he protested that this was impossible. But he had been thinking in terms of free hours, when all he needed was free minutes. I taught himrepparttar 113818 ABC Round Robin, and laterrepparttar 113819 Sleep Exercise. It took him three weeks to masterrepparttar 113820 Round Robin torepparttar 113821 point where he could feel himself relaxing physically.

Choosing the Best Wheelchair Cushion

Written by Maricon Williams


The apt combination of chair and cushion will allow you to sit in a neutral and stable posture and to operaterepparttar chair safely. Cushions come in an assortment of depths and sizes which need to be accommodated byrepparttar 113808 size of wheelchair frame. Obviously, you need to make a decision which cushion is best for you before you can make a decision about which chair is best.

Cushion design is by no means an easy subject. There are many choices to make as you decide onrepparttar 113809 right one for you. To boot, let us be familiar with cushions. There are four basic types of cushions - foam, gel, air floatation, and urethane honeycomb. There are also designs and systems for more specialized needs.

Foam technology has come a long way. It now comes in a range of densities with varying degrees of memory, holding its shape as you sit, contributing to your stability. The new foams can adapt to any shape, and still provide even support, spreading pressure acrossrepparttar 113810 sitting surface. Onrepparttar 113811 downside, foam wears out faster than other materials and loses its shape, but because of its lower price, this might not worry you.

Gel cushion designs endeavor to substituterepparttar 113812 consistency of atrophied muscle tissue. Gel fluids are placed in pouches and usually attached to a foam base, so thatrepparttar 113813 cushion matches torepparttar 113814 pressures put on it. Unfortunately, gel cushions are much heavier than other types, which can cancel out some ofrepparttar 113815 benefits of your lightweight wheelchair. Gel leaking can also happen.

Air floatation cushions, onrepparttar 113816 other hand, supportrepparttar 113817 body entirely on air. Air cushions can be less stable for those who move around a lot in their chair, but recent designs offer either low profile or quadrant options that minimize this problem. The balloons used in air cushions can be pricked, of course, and leaks do occur, although a fairly heavy duty rubber is used. But patching them is easier than withrepparttar 113818 gel design. The biggest drawback to air cushions is that they require more maintenance.
