subject: What Is The Zeo Personal Sleep Coach [print this page] It seems that Western Medicine's answer to sleep problems is medication. I have tried a handful of pills myself in trying to find ways to deal with insomnia. However, unless you have good insurance, medication can be pricey. And honestly, I question the safety of taking them long term. Therefore, I have stopped taking sleeping pills and begun researching natural remedies as well as sleep monitoring devices like the Zeo Personal Sleep Coach.
One day a few years ago, I got tired of dealing with the side effects of taking sleep medication, and decided to stop. That's when I turned to natural alternatives like Melatonin. The overall efficacy of natural pills were much lower than the sleeping pills I had taken in the past. I only had slightly better results using Valerian root, another option I turned to after trying Melatonin.
It soon occurred to me that popping a pill, while convenient, really does not address what might be the underlying cause of sleeplessness. At the very least, I wanted more information on precisely what was behind the sleep issues I was having. But I knew that to get more information, I would have to see expensive sleep specialists, and I didn't have the money for that.
Luckily, I found out there is a new machine out there called the Zeo Personal Sleep Coach. This product is actually a headband and accompanying unit that collects information while you sleep. Among the data monitored are such things as how long it takes you to fall asleep, the amount of REM sleep you get, and other information.
Along with the device, you have access to a website where you can upload your data and get feedback and analysis. When I learned about everything the Zeo device offers, I wanted to get one, but the high cost made me reluctant. Fortunately, I discovered that there is a 30-day trial of the device. Therefore, I will probably check out the device to see how it works for me. It's about time consumers had access to something that can give them information about their sleep patterns. .
