I went to the ocean for a month and slept better and felt better than I have for a while.
I did a little research and it looks like negative ions (found in nature where there are electrons being forced from atoms) have a positive effect on health and well-being.
Negative ions are plentiful around ocean waves, in radiation from the sun, waterfalls, forests, fire, basically anywhere there is "action" in nature.
Also, that positive ions (from electronics, heating/ac systems, basically any machines) have a negative effect on health and well-being.
Do any of you work to increase negative ions in the home? If so, what do you do?
I am working on being on the computer less, using candles instead of electric lights when I can, keeping windows open, sitting outside every day.

A biomat does that very well, and if you also want to use it as a sauna, it's a two-fer...

lpkayak - the biomat has FIR in it, so you lie on it, covered up by something, like a blanket - in my case, I lay in a sleeping bag on it.
It takes longer to sweat on than being in a tent, but it still works. I listened to a CD during the time.
