I am a light sleeper, I think I am actually in the category poor sleeper, I just wake up at the slightest sound or sometimes even Chris turning and touching me (not like that you in the cheap seats!!)
I am not alone and when Kalms asked me if I wanted to cover this subject ( no review products, just my opinion) I was happy to, I am though wanting to try their range as I need more sleep, at my worst I reckon I would pay £50 just to get back off and wake at lunchtime.
They have a map on their site so you can see the region where you live and see if you have any sleepless neighbours.
In East Anglia where I live I was pretty staggered as 66% of my neighbours get less than 7 hours sleep on average per night and one in ten would pay over £100 for a decent night's sleep!
The Real Value of Sleep
Brits kept up by money worries and willing to put hands in pockets for a decent night’s sleep
New research* released today has found that Britain value their sleep so much that that 40 per cent of us would pay to get a decent night’s sleep if the alternative was no or very little - that’s almost 20 million adults***. One in ten stated that given the alternative, they would happily pay over £50 for a night of uninterrupted sleep, those with three or more children in their household are the most likely to hand over more than £100.
Money worries (25%) and work-related stress (23%) were stated as the main disruptions of sleep, keeping a quarter of us awake. Other culprits were family worries, and partner’s snoring, which also keeps 28 per cent of women awake at night.
The research, carried out by Kalms Sleep - the traditional herbal remedy which helps promote natural refreshing sleep - also discovered that if they were getting no or little sleep more than a quarter of women (26%) would swap a month’s worth of sex for just one night of decent sleep – twice as many as men. Whilst a quarter of men and over a third (35%) of women would forgo booze for a whole month.

Both products contain herbs traditionally used for their sedative action which may be particularly helpful in the case of sleep disorders.
