			<title>A Better Six?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<p>Remember the days of getting eight hours of sleep? Neither do we. Most
of us these days are getting a scant six hours of sleep. The equalizer?
The all-new Sealy Posturepedic.<sup>®</sup> Designed to eliminate the pressure points that cause tossing and turning. 
    </p>
<p>How
did we achieve such a miraculous feat? Well, the short version (there’s
a more technical version below) is that it used to be, we either had
push-back support or pressure relief. Never both. So, with some very
smart guys called the <a href="http://www.sealy.com/Posturepedic/OAB.aspx">Orthopedic Advisory Board</a>,
we made the push-back support/pressure relief dilemma history. And
voilà, the new Sealy Posturepedic was born. Mattresses that make the
six hours of sleep we do get, a better six.</p>

			<title>Good Night's Sleep?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[<h2> 
							Sleep on a comfortable mattress and pillows.</h2>
<p class="style10"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="style11">Be sure your mattress and 
							foundation meet your needs for both comfort and 
							support. If you sleep with a partner, your mattress 
							should also allow you both enough space to move 
							easily. A good mattress will help provide many years 
							of quality sleep.</span></span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Create a sleep-conducive environment that is dark, 
							quiet, comfortable and cool.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Light is one of the body's most powerful time cues. 
							The rising sun can wake up the brain long before the 
							alarm goes off. A dark room is the most conducive 
							for sleep – day or night. Sudden, loud noises from 
							inside or outside the home can disrupt sleep. 
							Steady, low sounds, such as the whir of a fan or air 
							conditioner, are soothing because they help block 
							out distracting noises. The ideal bedroom 
							temperature is 60 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit (16 to 18 
							degrees Celsius). A room that's too warm or too cool 
							can disrupt comfortable sleep.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule, 
							including weekends.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Establish a regular, relaxing bedtime routine such 
							as soaking in a hot bath or hot tub and then reading 
							a book or listening to soothing music. This will 
							help your body to “wind down”. Finish eating at 
							least two to three hours before your regular 
							bedtime. This will give your body time to digest 
							your food and lower your risk of indigestion.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Use your bedroom only for sleep and sex.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">It is best to take work materials, computers and 
							televisions out of the sleeping environment.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Exercise regularly.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">It is best to complete your workout at least a few 
							hours before bedtime or when you wake.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Avoid nicotine (e.g., cigarettes, tobacco products).</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Used close to bedtime, it can lead to poor sleep.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2> 
							Sleep on a comfortable mattress and pillows.</h2>
<p class="style10"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;"><span class="style11">Be sure your mattress and 
							foundation meet your needs for both comfort and 
							support. If you sleep with a partner, your mattress 
							should also allow you both enough space to move 
							easily. A good mattress will help provide many years 
							of quality sleep.</span></span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Create a sleep-conducive environment that is dark, 
							quiet, comfortable and cool.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Light is one of the body's most powerful time cues. 
							The rising sun can wake up the brain long before the 
							alarm goes off. A dark room is the most conducive 
							for sleep – day or night. Sudden, loud noises from 
							inside or outside the home can disrupt sleep. 
							Steady, low sounds, such as the whir of a fan or air 
							conditioner, are soothing because they help block 
							out distracting noises. The ideal bedroom 
							temperature is 60 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit (16 to 18 
							degrees Celsius). A room that's too warm or too cool 
							can disrupt comfortable sleep.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Maintain a regular bed and wake time schedule, 
							including weekends.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Establish a regular, relaxing bedtime routine such 
							as soaking in a hot bath or hot tub and then reading 
							a book or listening to soothing music. This will 
							help your body to “wind down”. Finish eating at 
							least two to three hours before your regular 
							bedtime. This will give your body time to digest 
							your food and lower your risk of indigestion.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Use your bedroom only for sleep and sex.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">It is best to take work materials, computers and 
							televisions out of the sleeping environment.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Exercise regularly.</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">It is best to complete your workout at least a few 
							hours before bedtime or when you wake.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
<h2> 
							Avoid nicotine (e.g., cigarettes, tobacco products).</h2>
<p class="style12"> 
							<span style="font-size: medium;">Used close to bedtime, it can lead to poor sleep.</span></p>
<p class="style10"> </p>
