Get Your Beauty Sleep

Dr. Michele Burklund April 2, 2013

It seems as though insomnia is a common occurrence in our culture with the constant stresses in our lives and the endless amounts of media at our fingers tips keeping us awake at night. Not getting enough sleep can lead to some serious health issues and impair our ability to learn, our memory, mood, decrease our immunity, and negatively affect our weight and metabolism.  Creating a proper sleep hygiene habit is the first step for a restful nights sleep.

Sleep hygiene tips:

  • Don't drink caffeine after lunch
  • Stop using your computer 1 hour before bedtime
  • Unclutter the bedroom
  • Avoid naps during the day
  • Try yoga or mediation in the evening
  • Take a warm bath (my favorite ritual)

Tea is always a great way to relax and I am a big fan of Yogi's bedtime tea.  It has the perfect combination of herbs which includes valerian, chamomile, St. johns wort, passion flower, licorice, cardamom and cinnamon.

Haris, the love of my life, has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.  Right now he needs your support to get him treatment!Most of you reading this have been touched in some way by the presence of Haris in your life, others will perhaps have this chance in the future. 
Right now, Haris needs your help (and money) to survive.  Haris is not done yet on this Earth and the world is a better place with his presence on it.  We have designed some amazing rewards for your contributions; from living in an authentic Greek village for one month to lighting a candle for you in the oldest church in Crete!

Haris has been battling Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma for many years and has failed every line of treatment available in his country (Greece). He has been on the edge of death many times and has been able to push beyond the pain and suffering and recover. Haris is not a typical patient by any means and refuses to listen to statistics.  No matter what stage he has been in, he's refused to give up and used his training in qigong and meditation to give him the energy to survive.

This time, the cancer has come on strong and fast!  After a month and a half of non-stop research and persistence, Haris was accepted in a T-Cell clinical trial in China!!! We are so excited that Haris has been given this opportunity, especially since only ten people were selected (click on this link to read about the trial) .  The cost of the T-Cell treatment will be covered by the clinical trial BUT all other expenses will be our responsibility including the 1-2 month hospital stay, doctors examinations, additional drugs that are used, along with the imaging and biopsies.  We were told that these additional costs were estimated  to be around $60,000.  For those of us in America, we know that this is a deal!  We spoke with several organizations in America including MD Anderson in Texas and Fred Hutch/Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and they both wanted between $500,000 to $850,000 as a deposit just to get started!!! We were notified December 28th that we were accepted into the trial and plan to leave January 8th, 2018.  This gives us a week and a half to put everything together. Link in bio.
