I was hoping someone here can point me in the right direction of some kind of good quality live development, motivational seminar? The ones I have seen are just way to expensive, so maybe you have some alternative suggestions. Thanks Flybeers Hi there,

A short exmple list would be: - Ground flax-seeds (plus coffee grinder) - Omega Juicer 8003/5 which can juice anything from soft fruits to wheatgrass and cleans up in less than 2 minutes. - Bee pollen (as a fantastic multivitamin) Another suggestion is to enter the realm of more involved treatment methods such as homeopathy and Chinese medicine, whose principles can be summarized in list form, even if direct advice is difficult to provide without personalized diagnosis.

Just wanted to let you know that I've been checking on this list and enjoying the suggestions, even if I haven't been responding to every one. I promise to get to as many of these topics as I can. Some of them are definitely beyond my experience and knowledge, but I know a couple of more "expert" bloggers who can chime in with their tips on those topics. Now the question is, which ones should I do first? :) So many good topics! Thanks so much for all the input, guys!

How to get back to sleep on the nights I wake up around 2 AM and can't go back to sleep. Usually happens when I'm really stressed out. What foods promote a good night's sleep; what to avoid? How to get through a day on 4-5 hrs. sleep without caffeine (which I know exacerbates the insomnia). To Chris Best -- My husband has apnea too. The doctor told him to lose weight and prescribed a CPAP. He hated the CPAP at first - until he found that he was better rested after 6 hours sleep with the CPAP than he was after 10 hours without. Hope this helps! SLEEP!! How to get back to sleep on the nights I wake up around 2 AM and can’t go back to sleep. Usually happens when I’m really stressed out.
