    I get that from time to time, it's not an anxiety attack, it's called sleep paralysis. Technically, it's when instead of your whole brain falling asleep at once, parts of it fall asleep before other parts. When it happens, just let it flow and let it take it's course. Breathe slowly, and the sensation will subside. When you can master it once, the next time will be easier until when you feel come on, you can control it. It is SO scary when it happens, but just do some on-line research on it and the next time it happens you will be ready.

    Depending on how old you are 4 times in a persons life to have a really bad night is pretty much nothing to worry about.

    I could only wish for that few times to be my case...

    But never the less if you are concerned enough to question it then you should be asking your doctor and not us.

    It's possible that there may be something else going on and a sleep study may be needed to find this out.

    Sleep apnea could be one of the things that could cause this to happen.

    Did you drink enough water everyday? Drink more water everyday may help you.

    Water and Digestive System

    The digestion of solid foods depends on the presence of copious amounts of water. Acids & enzymes in the stomach break the food down into a homogenized fluid state which can pass into the intestine for the next phase of digestion.

    An "acid stomach" will respond to hydration.

    Constipation is a frequent symptom of dehydration. Increased water, along with increased fiber, will usually totally eliminate a problem.

    Gastritis, duodenitis, pain from ulcers (as long as the ulcer is not perforated), & heartburn all decrease with increased water intake. Water eliminates toxins & waste from the body.

    Water, also known as the body's solvent, regulates all bodily functions including the activities of circulating and dissolving. Every enzymatic and chemical reaction of the body occurs in the presence of water. Water also transports hormones, nutrients, oxygen and antibodies through the blood stream and lymphatic system. In addition, our bodies' proteins and enzymes are more efficient in solutions of lower viscosity (i.e., diluted), thus drinking water a must

    Water helps to: Relieve/Prevent: lower back pain, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, headaches, migraines, asthma, allergies, colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, depression, hypertension, cholesterol, hangovers, neck pain, muscle pain, joint pain, bloating, constipation, ulcers, low energy levels, stomach pain, confusion and disorientation.

    Maintain: muscle tone, weight loss, clear and healthy skin.

    Regulate: body temperature, remove toxins and wastes, cushion and lubricate joints, decrease risk of kidney stones, protect tissues, organs and the spinal cord from shock and damage.

    Assist In: the digestion & absorption of food, and in transporting oxygen and nutrients to the cells.

    THE HEALING POWER OF WATER

    'Drink at least two litres a day and you will soon see the difference - glowing skin, weight loss, less cellulite, better immunity and a huge boost to your energy levels'

    Water is one of the most basic things on Earth and essential to good health, yet we thoughtlessly throw away gallons every day. Used properly, water can revolutionise our lives.

    We need the liquid for day-to-day survival, yet we often ignore our body's cries for more water, at a grave cost to health and well-being.

    It is estimated that 90 per cent of us are chronically dehydrated. Drink just five glasses of water per day and you will cut your risk of developing breast cancer by 79 per cent. The same amount of water will make you 45 per cent less likely to develop cancer of the colon.

    Many of the common complaints which plague most people's lives, such as tiredness, headaches, dry skin, low immunity, cellulite, indigestion and weight gain, are caused by day-to-day dehydration.

    The best drinking water is alkaline water. Did you heard about alkaline water?

    WHAT IS ALKALINE WATER?

    One of the longest-lived race of people in the world are called the Hunza. These people, located in the northern Pakistan, are found in several high-altitude mountain valleys. Many Hunza claim to be 150 years old; many others are documented centenarians (over age one hundred). For many years, scientists have pondered the mystery of what makes them so healthy, for they rarely suffer the diseases the rest of us know so well. Some researchers are beginning to believe that the Hunza miracle derives from the water that they drink. The mountain water that flows into the Hunza villages comes from the surrounding glaciers. Structured hexagonally, this water is filled with mineral solutes, and it tests out as highly alkaline

    As we have said before, the body uses the blood stream system to dispose of wastes; these are removed in liquid form, and are often deposited in the lungs and kidneys. If there are too many wastes to handle, they are deposited in various organ systems, like the heart, or the pancreas, or the liver, or the colon, or in other locations. Sometimes theses wastes are left on the walls of arteries, and over the years can spread throughout the body.

    The break-down of this disposal process, especially of acid wastes, is how we define the aging process. To slow down and reverse this direction, one must begin removing acid wastes from the body.

    The best way we have found to do this is to drink alkaline water. This water, having a pH of between of 9 and 11, will first neutralize harmful stored acid wastes, and if you consume it every day, will gently remove them from your body. Yet, since the water is ionized, it will not leach out valuable alkaline minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium.

    Japanese doctors have treated their patients for over four decades with alkaline water. They believe that the immune system looses its power to throw off disease when the body becomes too acidic. They advocate drinking alkaline water, eating alkaline foods.

    Asian medicine assigns two categories to human diseases: communicable and adult. Contagious or communicable diseases are caused by viruses and bacteria. Influenza, the common cold, aids, plagues, all fall into this category, and medical doctors are quite proficient at treating them. Adult diseases include heart disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, gout, arthritis, kidney diseases, hemorrhoids, asthma, hay fever, allergies, obesity, tooth and gum disease, skin disorders, and many others.

    They are caused by poor circulation, by deficient cellular activity, and by the accumulation of acid wastes in the body. Asian medicine says that many adult diseases can be treated by alkalizing the bloodstream.

    Medicine of America does not attempt to remove acid wastes from the physiological system; so today's modern medicine is rather deficient in treating adult diseases. Even if the medicine cures the disease, if acids are not removed from the body, the treatment's effectiveness will at best only be temporary.

    Uses of Alkaline Water:

    *Raises drinking water's pH to approximately 7.5

    *Binds heavy metals.

    *Removes chlorine.

    *Hinders growth of bacteria.

    *Adds ionic coral calcium and essential minerals to water.

    -Fact: If your body's pH is not balanced, you cannot effectively assimilate vitamins, minerals and food supplements.

    -Fact: There is more calcium in the body than any other mineral. 20% of an adults bone calcium is reabsorbed and replaced every year.

    *Maintain optimum alkalinity for optimum health

    *Provide you easily absorbed and usable calcium

    *Cleanse the kidneys, intestines and liver

    *Maintain stronger bones and healthier teeth

    *Alleviate insomnia

    *Keep your heart beating regularly

    *Help metabolize your body's iron

    *Aid your nervous system

    *Breakdown heavy metals and drug residues in your body

    *Neutralize harmful acids that lead to illness

    *Achieve a healthy alkaline level, neutralizing acid

    *Protect your body from free radical damage

    *Control digestive problems

    *Increase muscle and joint mobility

    *Combat arthritic conditions and heart disease

    *Regulate blood sugar levels and blood pressure

    I have some alternative medication (nutritional supplement, therapies & Alkaline Water) may help to prevention and maintaining good health. It's safe and natural. you can email or call me to know more.

    I can share with you more about alkaline water that i drink daily if you want to have better water for better health.
