Eileen Burns

With the explosion of modern technology has came a saturation of technology and media that is stressing us out, affecting our health and wellbeing, particularly our sleep.

We now have generations of children and adults glued to their mobile phones, laptops. ipads or xbox…late in the wee evenings, when we should be tucked up in bed having sweet dreams.

Instead many of us are  glued to social media, tv or online games such as facebook, candycrush … A generation over stimulated with not enough quality sleep are falling asleep to electromagentic radiation with kindles, mobile phones…

Other than the obvious DNA dangers of radiation from all the gadgets now plugged in or homes that aren’t turned off at night, the health risks are extremely concerning.

Generations no longer know how to SWITCH off, relax and go to bed feeling RELAXED. Instead they fall asleep often over stimulated, exhausted, irritable, to often the over stimulation of what they have been viewing.

Sleep Cycles are so easily affected especially in children and teens who need adequate sleep for repair and growth. So easily knocked off with the glare of a computer or ipad screen, especially children and teens who require enough sleep for necessary repair and growth.

So many of us are dropping off to sleep with graphic, violent or heart racing images from late night tv, instead of the nice, quiet, soothing, natural nightime environment that helps us get the GOOD QUALITY sleep we deserve and that is required to restore and repair the body, to face the day happy, healthy and refreshed.
