Sleeping Positions Research Summary (24 Studies) Warning. Most natural (and often medical) websites claim that the human body repairs itself during sleep. However, dozens of medical studies, as well as clinical observations, testify that sick people are most likely to die from 4 to 7 am due to heart attacks, strokes, seizures, exacerbations of asthma and COPD, and many other conditions (see the summary of these studies here: Sleep Heavy Breathing Effect).

Helping Kids Handle Worry Listen Helping Kids Conquer Worry To help your kids manage what's worrying them: Find out what's on their minds: Be available and take an interest in what's happening at school, on the team, and with your kids' friends. If your child seems to be worried about something, ask about it. Show you care and understand. Guide kids to solutions. In most situations, resist the urge to jump in and fix a problem for your child — instead, think it through and come up with possible solutions together. Keep things in perspective. So, for example, if your son is worried about whether he'll get the lead in the school play, remind him that there's a play every season — if he doesn't get the part he wants this time, he'll have other opportunities. Make a difference. Be aware that your own reaction to global events affects kids, too. So look for things you can do with your kids to help all of you feel like you're making a positive difference. Offer reassurance and comfort. Highlight the positive.
