If you have problems sleeping, here's a hint: Sleep outside! From a study by the University of Colorado Boulder, the findings of which show that melatolin. which is used to make us sleepy and awake but is changed by the effects of screens, is restored by the wilderness. They sent five volunteers on a six day camping trip without ANY ELECTRONICS. The campers slept longer, their melatonin levels began to rise more then 2(1/2) hours earlier then before. A second group was sent and spit, one stayed home and the others went camping. Sleeping was more efficient in the camping group then for the homestayers.
