We {live in|reside in} a time where the laws of Darwinism no longer {apply|use} to the {human race|mankind}. We have the {technology|innovation} and health {benefits|advantages} to keep our {children|kids} alive, no matter what the {cost|expense}. {Humans|People|Human beings} are wired to feel {compassion|empathy} for those who {need|require} it, and it is for this {reason|factor} that forty {three|3} million {disabled|handicapped} {people|individuals} {are alive|live} in the United States. This {is about|has to do with} 17 percent of 250 million {people|individuals}; {almost|practically|nearly} 1 out of every 5 American is {disabled|handicapped}. This can {cause|trigger} {stress|tension} to their {caregivers|caretakers} and to their {families|households}, {but|however} there are {always|constantly} {ways|methods} to {ease|relieve|alleviate|reduce} that {stress|tension}. {Children|Kids} with {disabilities|impairments|specials needs} {commonly|typically|frequently} experience {trouble|difficulty|problem} sleeping, and this {is one of|is among} the most {stressful|difficult|demanding} {aspects|elements} of caring or such {a child|a kid}. {However|Nevertheless}, {research|research study} {has|has actually} {shown|revealed} that weighted blankets can be the {solution|service|option} to this {insomnia|sleeping disorders}.

A weighted blanket is not {designed|developed|created} to {restrain|limit}, {but|however} rather, to {stimulate|promote} {specific|particular} {hormones|hormonal agents} and {relax|unwind} the {mind and body|body and mind}. The deep pressure of the blanket on the body {causes|triggers} the release of endorphins and serotonin. Endorphins are the body's natural opiate and {painkiller|pain reliever}. They {calm|soothe|relax} the mind, {reduce|decrease|minimize|lower} {pain|discomfort}, and {cause|trigger} a sense of {happiness|joy} and relaxation. Serotonin has {a similar|a comparable} {effect|impact|result} and is {often|frequently|typically} {used|utilized} as a treatment for {various|different|numerous} {disorders|conditions} {including|consisting of} OCD, {depression|anxiety}, and {anxiety|stress and anxiety}. Serotonin can even {help reduce|help in reducing} the likeliness of {childhood|youth} {obesity|weight problems}, as it can {help|assist} {regulate|control|manage} {appetite|hunger|cravings} and keep {children|kids} from {participating in|taking part in} the overconsumption of food, which {has|has actually} {become|ended up being} {a very|an extremely|a really} {prevalent|common|widespread} {problem|issue} in America. Not {only|just} do weighted blankets {provide|offer|supply} this {heavenly|incredible|divine}, {relaxed|unwinded} {sensation|feeling|experience}, {but|however} {provide|offer|supply} the {feeling|sensation} of being {tucked in|embeded} {tightly|firmly|securely}. A weighted blanket is anything {but|however} {uncomfortable|unpleasant|uneasy}, and {stimulates|promotes} the human desire for {a sense of security|a complacency} by {providing|offering|supplying} {an almost|a practically|a nearly} hug-like feel. While this {seems|appears} to be {a product|an item} {used|utilized} {specifically|particularly} for sleep, that is not {necessarily|always} {true|real}. Whether awake or {asleep|sleeping}, the blanket will have the {same|exact same|very same} {effect|impact|result}, so {simply|just|merely} {draping|curtaining} the blanket over {a child|a kid}'s lap will still produce serotonin that can {later|later on} be {transformed|changed} into melatonin for {a better|a much better} night's rest. Even {placing|putting|positioning} the blanket on a kid's back while they {watch|view|enjoy|see} {television|tv} can produce {a happier|a better} {state of mind|mindset|frame of mind} and {instill|impart} optimism and {calmness|peace}.

This {type of|kind of} blanket is {perfect|ideal|best} for {anybody|anyone|any person} with {a mental|a psychological} {disability|impairment|special needs} or {symptoms|signs} of {insomnia|sleeping disorders}. Weighted blankets can {immensely|tremendously|exceptionally|profoundly} {improve|enhance} the quality of sleep of any {individual|person}. A weighted blanket can even be {used|utilized} for {adults|grownups} experiencing {insomnia|sleeping disorders} or {anxiety|stress and anxiety}.
