So here we are at part 2 of the menopause series and I thought I would focus on the trouble with sleep women with menopause suffer. From doing promotions for Mindful Beauty products all over the country we can tell you lots of woman start sleep problems when the menopause hits. They tell us about waking up too early and also not being able to go back to sleep since the menopause started.Plus the added effect of hot flushes. Loads of women have been helped by our Lavender Pillow Mist which is made with real extract of lavender essential oils and also German Chamomile. This spray is available throughout the country from health stores and pharmacies. Ours is 9.99 Euros compared to imports of 25.99 and ours is made in Ireland.  Insomnia - The Silent EpidemicWomen are more likely to suffer from sleepless nights than men. Some psychologists believe the main reasons why so many people lie awake at night are health concerns and relationship difficulties. A recent survey, which polled people in five European countries, found severe insomniacs had often experienced marital breakdowns or were single parents. The study also showed that in Britain and Sweden home to severe sufferers - those with difficulty going to sleep and waking frequently during the night - were more likely to be in the 25 to 34 age bracket. Fifty percent of insomnia has been attributed to depression, grief or anxiety. Menopausal sleep trouble is connected to causing depression and anxiety in menopausal women. So having what is called good 'sleep hygiene' is really important. According to this study Germany had the lowest number of insomniacs – only 45% of the population were affected. Adults on average sleep for between 7-8 hours. Insomnia is among the most common health complaint presented to GPs, often leading to psychological distress, impaired functioning, and increased accidents, sick time, doctor visits, and risk of major depression. Termed “a silent epidemic of staggering proportions”, insomnia is undiagnosed and untreated in an estimated 95% of cases, in part because health care professionals receive little or no training in its management. Insomnia is also known to be a condition that can have many causes.  Benzo SleepOne of the main treatments from orthodox medicine to manage insomnia is the use of prescription drugs called benzodiazepines. Some research has shown that the use of sleeping pills can make the insomnia worse in 50% of cases. Benzodiazepines are the most commonly prescribed insomnia treatment. While studies support their short-term use, they are a controversial long-term remedy because of potential side effects including dependence, tolerance, disruption of sleep stages, daytime residual effects, and rebound insomnia. Some can create an addiction. When taken with alcohol the combination doubles the effect of both causing potential damage to your liver. Mindful Beauty Sweet Dreams Box

Holistic Treatment of Insomnia Lack of sleep can cause immediate signs of stress, the mood drops as well as levels of magnesium and zinc in the body. Sleep isn’t just good for the mind it is also good for the body. The body repairs itself every night during the first three hours of sleep. The best way to get your sleep back on track is to cut out caffeine - a stimulant found in coffee and tea. Not many people know it but chocolate has much higher levels of caffeine than coffee. Eating your main meal in the day has also been found to help the biorhythm that normally manages your sleep to return to normal. Timetable a routine for yourself and try not to sleep during the day. Only use the bedroom for sex and sleep, not for work, or watching television and eating. Get up at the same time every morning even if you have not slept well. Detoxify your mind by writing down your thoughts and worries last thing at night and try not to think of them again until the morning. Visualising yourself asleep may trigger the subconscious mind to effect that state into being. Focusing on the insomnia only creates more of it. Instead, try to visualise yourself as being relaxed and sleepy this may change your psychological condition and invite sleep. Only use our Lavender Pillow Mist in the bedroom. When your nose and brain smells the scent it triggers the emotional centres of your brain to relax and start to get you ready for sleep.

€24.99
100% NATURAL, VEGAN and CRUELTY-FREE Our Eau de Cologne is made with 100% pure essential oils from herbs & spices. We developed this unisex Cologne with spring in mind & wanted to return to the use of high quality natural ingredients which is what our brand is known for. Many perfume houses in France only used essential oils to create colognes & perfume up to the 1930’s. Like any work of art our formula is secret but nourishes the body, mind & soul. With top notes of Bergamot, Lemon, Grapefruit & Orange; heart notes of Ylang ylang, Neroli & French Lavender & with base notes of Cedarwood, Vetivert & Frankincense. Ralph Quinlan Forde the founder of Mindful Beauty has formulated this Cologne with his knowledge of perfumery he gained from studying in Grasse, France - the epicentre of international perfume craft. In 1708, Giovanni Farina wrote to his brother Jean Baptiste: "I have found a fragrance that reminds me of an Italian spring morning, of mountain daffodils & orange blossoms after the rain". He named his fragrance Eau de Cologne, in honour of his new hometown in Germany as he was missing Italy. The Mindful Beauty Eau de Cologne is just that: citrus floral spring mornings - crisp, fresh & awakening.
