What Micheal Jackson wanted most – sleep!

Monday, September 21st, 2009

What would you do to get a good night’s sleep? If you were Micheal Jackson, Anna Nicole Smith and Heath Ledger, your answer would be “Anything and everything! Addictive! Dangerous! Bring it On!”

Micheal Jackson was like millions of others who experience sleep problems because of the stress and the demands of their work. And like the millions of others, he was desperate to get the sleep that was eluding him.

But unlike others, Micheal’s status and position allowed him to access strategies that go far and above anything that would normally be considered safe. Even Anna Nicole Smith and Heath Ledger didn’t go to the lengths Micheal Jackson did, but they were still consuming multiple drugs in hopes of a good night’s sleep.

Micheal Jackson, Anna Nicole Smith  and heath Ledger may be extreme examples, but they are only three of the millions of people all over the world who are desperate to get a good night’s sleep. Any doctor can attest to the number of daily office visits which centre on  ’sleep’ or ‘insomnia’. Anyone who has ever compiled workplace health data can attest to the high number of respondents indicating that they are tired and would like to sleep better.

Are you desperately seeking sleep? To what lengths would you go to get some sleep?
