Adult Sleeping Problems
by Simon Bell
There are a wide range of sleeping problems that can affect many adults. Approximately 1 in 4 people suffer from some form of sleeping problem. Many people don't seek help when they can't sleep - but there's no need to suffer in silence.
Most people will develop some sort of sleeping problem at some stage in their lives. It can often be due to events that are occurring at the time such as marriage, divorce, job/career problems, moving house etc.
But some problems that affect sleep are chronic and may appear quickly or have been with you your entire life.
It can be very frustrating trying to get rid of a sleeping disorder. Sometimes diagnosing the problem itself can be challenging since it cannot simply be 'shown' to a doctor.
Determine the Root
One of the first steps you need to take when trying to cure your sleep problem is to determine the source of the problem itself.
Deterring the root of the problem isn't as simple as it sounds as there are so many factors to consider:
Are you under a lot of stress?
Are you going through a major event in your life?
Is your bedroom clear from distractions
Are you allowing your body enough time to wind-down before going to sleep?Some of the above points may seem really obvious. However, some cases of chronic sleeping disorders have been instantly resolved by assessing how the individual falls asleep.
For example: Let's say the individual lies in bed watching TV for an hour or two before going to bed. This doesn't allow the brain enough time to switch-off and wind down.
So when the individual attempts to go to bed, their mind is full of thoughts.
The result?
The individual spends hours tossing and turning in their bed before finally falling asleep.
If this sounds similar...
Take action!
Remove the distractions from your room!

Interview with Alvin Youngblood Hart (Part 1)
Last night Memphis, Tennessee based GRAMMY Award winner Alvin Youngblood Hart played the UpStage in Port Townsend. In July, the "musician's musician" will be at the Port Townsend Acoustic Blues Festival teaching, jamming and preforming.
Bio
The Cosmic American Love Child Of Howlin Wolf and Link Wray!!! Known as a "musician's musician", his praises have been sung by everyone from Bob Dylan to Brit guitar gods Eric Clapton & Mick Taylor. Since his 1996 debut recording, the all-acoustic BIG MAMA'S DOOR, Alvin Youngblood Hart has carried his musical message the world over. A devout follower of the 'no barriers' approach laid by veteran performers like Gatemouth Brown and the late great Doug Sahm, Alvin continues to defy the so- called purists.
After receiving the 1997 W.C Handy Award for Best New Artist, as well as 2 Living Blues Awards, Hart's 1998 release, TERRITORY, a rousing tribute to all forms of American music, received the Downbeat Magazine Critics Poll Award for Best Blues Album (and it wasn't even a Blues album). In the summer of '99 Hart teamed up with producer Jim Dickinson to begin recording START WITH THE SOUL.
This record would be hailed as a new breed Southern Rock classic & Alvin's return to the "sacred garage" .START WITH THE SOUL was chosen in the New York Times top 10 releases of 2000 as well as the BBC's Blues record of the year. He also shared Living Blues Magazine's best guitarist honors with fellow road dog Big Jack Johnson in 2001.
2003 was a busy year. Not only was there a GRAMMY nomination, Hart also toured the world as a member of Job Cain, a hard rocking side project he put together with Cry Of Love/Black Crowes guitarist Audley Freed. In August of '03 Alvin was invited to fill in for Taj Mahal for five nights in Tokyo as a member of Kip Hanrahan's Conjure, the worlds longest running jazz poetry ensemble. Assembled to lend musical support to the words of Bay Area poet Ishmael Reed, Conjure featured the talents of tenor sax giant David Murray and also Meters guitarist Leo Nocentelli. Alvin is still a member of the revolving cast and recorded with them on the BAD MOUTH CD.
In 2004 Mr. Hart received a Grammy for his contribution to BEAUTIFUL DREAMER :THE SONGS OF STEPHEN FOSTER. In the Summer of 2005 He released the self produced MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER,a rock guitar free for all, paying homage to fallen & missing rockers like Phil Lynott and Sly Stone. In 2006 Hart took time out to work on the film BLACK SNAKE MOAN .
He served as a guitar tutor to star Samuel L. Jackson and recorded a duet with the films female lead Christina Ricci for the soundtrack.In the fall of that year Hart joined Austin dynamo Ruthie Foster and rock n roll legend Bo Diddley for a 2 month coast to coast US tour.Recently Alvin has thrown his talent into the educational arena.In April 2007 he participated on a tour of Mississippi high schools as a member of the Thelonius Monk Institute Of Jazz.
