Interesting. It would be interesting to see if this gets tested in a sleep lab to see if it actually improves the overall quality of a snorer's sleep. It would be great if it did.

That's fine at home, but you can't really purchase a dozen of these and slip them into the bunk of all one's nearest neighbours in a dorm!,

Sometimes thinking outside the box results in elegant and wonderful ideas...I hope this one is hugely successful (and light enough to go in half the backpacks on the Camino)!

I have cut my snoring by using Pure Sleep mouth guards bought on-line. I will fit two of them for my walk in March. My soring no longer wakes me and the best is that I no longer wake my wife.

I need to get one of those! Sometimes I say, only half jokingly, that the real reason I go on real long pilgrimages is that my husband snores and that I want to have 8 hours uninterrupted sleep per night for a while ;-) Buen Camino! SY

I can't remember where I just read this but from now on I'm insisting that

I don't snore, but I do dream that I'm a motorbike

So funny, the snoring in the albergues was both comforting... and on nights where I was unsettled, discomfitting! It's all in the perspective - sometimes in the perspective of that particular day! Teresa.

Possibly. I know I was more interested in the content of the article than looking for grammar mistakes. That said, nothing leapt out at me as being egregious.

All they need are pillows woth some resistance, foam pillows of some sort so you can sleep on an angle. Bit with these flat, shapless pillows, all we can do is snore and increase our risk of having a stroke witj our sleeping apnea. I vote for "Lazy boy" sofas for all, just like in modern hospitals: more to a room amd more comfort
