Yep. Right above “toothbrush” and “socks” and all other essentials on your travel list for this year’s holidays should be “sleep.” Or, of course, some other version of the term that makes sense to you. You want to be certain to include all sleep-related essentials, such as sleep apnea treatment, for your vacation. Otherwise, you may have a lot of exciting gatherings and activities planned but you might not have the energy and concentration to attend them and enjoy them.
About Your Travel List
Everything you need at home that’s part of your sleep apnea treatment experience should go into your suitcase! That might include an oral appliance. Maybe it includes a special pillow. Perhaps you are a fan of a relaxing room spray or linen spray that helps you fall asleep. Whatever the case, you don’t want to leave home without it! Before you chuckle at the idea of making a list and then swiftly dismiss it, give it a try this year. You’ll be pleased with the results.
About Your Plans
Don’t forget that you really need to continue your sleep apnea treatment when you’re at home and when you’re away from home. The quickest way to interrupt effective care is to simply skip a few nights and to let your schedule become erratic. While you will simply need to do your best with your schedule, so you can protect your sleep, wearing your appliance is something you can easily make happen every single night, whether at a relative’s home, a hotel room, etc. Remember to carry it along with you!
