It has been over a year since I’ve been able to go to sleep and stay a sleep. Generally to get to sleep I had to watch TV until I fell asleep, but then I’d wake up after just 2 or 3 hours. Then I’d turn the TV back on and start the process all over again. I was only getting about 4 to 5 hours of sleep a night. Since I had started working with my Palm Harbor personal trainer, Eric I told him about it and that I felt trapped in a vicious cycle.  I just did not have the energy that I used to have due to my lack of sleep.

After explain it to my personal trainer Eric I was shocked at his suggested solution.   But before giving me his suggestion he again asked if I was willing to do what it took to fix the problem.  I assured him that if he had the solution I would follow his suggestion, after all I was paying a personal trainer for his knowledge and I really am tired (no pun intended) of not sleeping.

First he asked if I was willing to read instead of watching the TV. No surprise there. Then he asked if I was willing to not watch TV to fall asleep.  I told him I doubted that I could fall asleep without it but that I would try. That is when he gave me the shocker. He told me to remove the TV from my bedroom.  Yikes!!  That felt like I was being sentenced to sleepless nights of staring at the ceiling.  But I had agreed to follow his suggestion so out would go the TV.  I went straight out and bought a book to read, I knew I would need it. My friend helped me remove the TV that day from my bedroom.

That has been a couple of weeks ago and I can tell you that I’m going to sleep and most nights I’m staying a sleep for most of the night. It is a big improvement.  Eric assures me that it will even get better.

Who would have ever guessed that their personal trainer would coach them on lifestyle habits?  I came here to lose
weight and get into shape but I’m getting way more than just that.  Exercise, nutrition, and now sleep, the quality of my life is getting better from working with Eric.  I tell all my friends about Eric and suggest that they make him their Palm Harbor personal trainer.
