If you or your partner snores, it could ruin your relationship. Everyone needs sleep, and a disturbance in the middle of the night can spoil the other person's sleep. At some point, you may decide to sleep separately. While this doesn't seem particularly romantic, many people do it, and their relationship doesn't suffer at all.

 

Stick to a regular bedtime, and practice good sleep habits in general to reduce the incidence of snoring. If you go to bed overtired, sleep erratic hours, or have other bad sleep habits, you may sleep very deeply which relaxes the muscles in the back of your throat more than usual. This can contribute to snoring.

 

Drinking alcohol too close to bedtime can result in snoring. This happens because alcohol tends to relax the throat muscles, which leads to tightened airways. As a result, snoring is more likely to occur. The best way to avoid snoring due to alcohol consumption is to stop drinking spirits at least 5 to 6 hours before bedtime.

 

People who suffer from congestion because of allergies or other causes are likely to snore. Congestion causes the nasal cavities to contract, which may block the air resulting in snoring. One method to avoid the congestion is to take a decongestant before going to bed.

 

You may want to look into magnetic therapy in order to end snoring. With this method, a plastic ring with two magnetic ends attach to your nose when you go to sleep. The ring helps to stimulate the sensors that open the nasal passages, thus, preventing a person from snoring.

 

In order to reduce snoring at night, work to clear your nasal passages before going to bed. You can take a nasal decongestant (pill or spray), or sleep with a neti pot next to your bed for a more organic solution. Getting the mucus out of your passages will make it less likely that you will snore.

 

Always choose a pillow that is firm and elevated several inches off of your bed. This will help tremendously to reduce the strain on your airways so that you do not feel constricted when you breathe. Implementing this technique will result in a much more comfortable night of rest and minimal snoring.

 

If you are a woman and you have recently started snoring, get your thyroid checked. Sometimes this can be an indication of an underactive thyroid, or hypothyroidism. This hormone imbalance can greatly affect your sleep patterns, because sleep is governed in part by a complex interplay of several different hormones.

 

As noted above, snoring affects a great many people. Snoring can make it hard for you to sleep, and probably affects the people who sleep in your house as well. You may be able to make nighttime in your house quiet and tranquil again by making use of the information and advice you've just read through.
