"Canada’s Baby Boomers are Lacking in the Bedroom" CNW Group
Obviously the topic is sex, right? Wrong! Get your mind out of the gutter, would you? We’re talking middle-aged people here. Some are close to elderly status (Not me or you, of course, but those other people over there. Yeah, you guys!)
OK, I thought it was about sex, too. Why else would I be reading a Canadian press release?
However, the real topic is sleep. According to a survey conducted by The Better Sleep Council Canada, Canadian Boomers aren’t getting enough sleep. One reason may be their moldy old mattress.
At least, the BSCC would like us to think so; it helps sell new mattresses.
The release recommends replacing your mattress every ten years. This seems reasonable to me. My wife and I replaced our mattress last week, retiring one that we’d slept on for at least 12 years. It was time. The new mattress is more comfortable. Nevertheless, new mattress or not, I find myself sleeping less on an average night than in years past. This is apparently a common trend among Boomers. According to the release, some of the common causes are stress, lack of exercise, and a spouse who snores.
Check, check and check.
