Ok. Admittedly this post has little to do with Pilates per se, but anyone who has tried exercising (or doing anything important) after a sleepless night caused by too much noise (your partner snoring, the cat yowling, the trash pick-up, the ungodly sound of the lawn blower at the crack of dawn…you get the picture) will really appreciate this post.
I have recently been turned on to the best earplugs ever! You can get them anywhere and they aren’t expensive. They are called Mack’s Earplugs. Don’t be cheap and get the generic version; go for the real deal.
Some tips about Mack's Earplugs:
- take one plug and split it in 2. place ½ plug in each ear. DO NOT be tempted to cut corners and put ¼ in each ear; you will be sorry. Your ear will suck down that little earplug and then you will have to go to the ear doctor and have a big bill.
- you can use the earplugs more than once, but only if you wrap it in something like saran-wrap, otherwise it will collect dust and dirt and your ear will get messed up….another ear doctor visit will blight your calender.
These earplugs are made of silicone, are super comfortable, and nestle into my ear. They allow me to sleep while my cat screams outside my door for no reason. I am now feeling well rested and my body is happy.
Plus, for those of you who want to loose weight…aren’t they always saying that getting a good nights rest is key?
Check out Mack"s Earplugs.
an alternative to saran wrap is to neatly place them back in the original packaging.
