It’s no secret that snoring is one of the most common sleep disturbances. It can be difficult to find a snoring partner, but when you do it will often be in your bed! You may have tried many snoring remedies over the years with varying degrees of success. But what if there was an easy-to-use remedy that would help snorers and their partners? Well, there are devices on the market today that are designed specifically for this problem. This blog post discusses how these tools work and why they are effective solutions to snoring problems.
1. Buy a white noise machine
The snoring may be so loud that it is keeping you from getting a good night’s sleep. You have tried several things to try and get your partner to stop snoring, but none of them seem to work. There are some other options available for you if this continues to be an issue- most notably buying a white noise machine. Snoring can often keep both partners in bed awake at night or cause one person not to get any sleep whatsoever due to the snorer’s already limited capacity for sleeping soundly with their snores being amplified by the lack of background noise in the bedroom.
2. Invest in earplugs and keep them on your nightstand
If snoring is a problem in your bedroom, one thing you can do to try and combat the snorer’s noise pollution for both of you is investing in earplugs. You can buy many different kinds of earplugs that are designed specifically to not only block out snores but also other sounds from outside the room so that it is easier for everyone sleeping in there to get some much-needed rest without having their sleep disrupted by loud snoring nearby.
You may want to keep them on hand even if they have not been used yet- especially when traveling or staying at someone else’s home overnight because snorers tend to be unpredictable about when they will start snoring loudly enough that it wakes up everyone who happens to be trying (and failing) to sleep in the same room.
One way that you can combat snoring is by investing in earplugs and keeping them on your nightstand, so they are accessible if needed for either yourself or a snorer who may be sleeping next to you (or both of you).
3. Make sure that the bed is not too soft or too hard, which can cause snoring
Another thing you can do to make snoring less likely or stop snoring if it is already happening in your bedroom is by making sure that the bed itself is not too soft or too hard. This will help prevent snoring because snorers often tend to snore when they are on their backs and sleeping on something like a very plush mattress (or even just one where there happens to be an extra spring poking up).
On the other hand, some people who sleep on beds that feel too firm for them may also start snoring due to trying different positions while asleep- including lying flat with arms extended above their heads which causes tension in the jaw joints and neck muscles, both of which contribute significantly towards causing loud snores.
4. Consider sleeping on an incline to make breathing easier while asleep
One snorer who is already in bed might be able to help the other snoring person by suggesting that they try out sleeping on an incline. Not only does this make breathing easier when asleep but it also makes snoring less likely- and if snoring has started, adjusting pillows so one partner is at a higher angle than the other can sometimes stop snores from disrupting everyone’s sleep for good (or at least until you leave home or go back to your own house!).
It may take some trial and error before either of you find what works best with regards to how high each side should be elevated in order to minimize snores while still allowing both partners their preferred amount of comfort throughout the night. However, taking these steps can make snoring less likely to disturb your sleep- which is optimal for everyone in bed!
