一、養成良好的睡眠習慣可減少失眠的機會。 1. Developing good sleep habits can reduce the chance of insomnia.
A 不過分擔心失眠問題:大多數人平時或多或少都有失眠的經驗,只要放鬆心情,不要過分憂慮,我們的身體自然會調節適應。越擔心失眠的人,失眠的狀況往往就會越嚴重。 A Don't worry too much about insomnia: Most people have more or less experience of insomnia. As long as you relax and don't worry too much, our body will naturally adjust and adapt. The more people who worry about insomnia, the more serious the insomnia will be.
B 維持規律的生理時鐘:養成定時就寢與起床的習慣,建立自己的生理時鐘。 B Maintain a regular biological clock: develop the habit of going to bed and waking up at regular intervals, and establish your own biological clock.
C 睡前放鬆心情:睡前半小時,避免從事勞心或勞力的工作,試著放空,想些正面的事情,或是聽聽輕柔的音樂,保持心情穩定。如果因為擔心某些事情、 心神不寧,不妨把它寫在紙上,告訴自己:第二天再想吧!當頭腦清楚時,也更容易處理問題。睡前半小時應該關掉電腦等3C產品,避免螢幕光線直射眼睛進而抑制褪黑激素,影響睡眠。 C. Relax before going to bed: Half an hour before going to bed, avoid laborious or laborious work, try to relax, think about positive things, or listen to soft music to keep your mood stable. If you are worried about something, If you are restless, you might as well write it down on paper and tell yourself: Think about it the next day! It is also easier to deal with problems when the mind is clear. Half an hour before going to bed, you should turn off 3C products such as computers to avoid direct light from the screen on your eyes, which can inhibit melatonin and affect sleep.
D 睡前洗個溫水澡:睡前一小時沖個溫水澡有助於肌肉放送,提高身體核心溫度,當我們離開浴室時,體溫會逐漸下降,因而感到疲倦,更容易入睡。 D Take a warm bath before going to bed: Taking a warm bath one hour before going to bed can help muscles release and increase the core temperature of the body. When we leave the bathroom, the body temperature will gradually drop, so we feel tired and fall asleep more easily.
E 保持適度運動:白天應維持半小時至一小時的運動,唯睡眠前一小時應盡量避免劇烈運動,以免身體過於亢奮而失眠。 E Maintain moderate exercise: Exercise for half an hour to an hour during the day, but try to avoid strenuous exercise one hour before going to bed to avoid insomnia due to excessive body excitement.
F 非睡眠時間不要待在床上或臥室。想睡的時候才上床。若躺床20分鐘還不能入睡,起床從事溫和的事情後再回去躺床,如此重複數次,直到入睡。 F Do not stay in bed or bedroom when not sleeping. Go to bed when you want to sleep. If you can't fall asleep after lying in bed for 20 minutes, get up and do something gentle and then go back to bed, repeat this several times until you fall asleep.
二、營造良好的睡眠環境以利入眠。 Second, create a good sleep environment to facilitate sleep.
A 不要在床上做睡眠以外的事情:把握「上床就是睡覺」的原則,不要在床上看書、打電話、看電視,否則交感神經容易遭受干擾,無法放鬆。 A Do not do anything other than sleep in bed: grasp the principle of "going to bed is sleep", do not read books, make phone calls, or watch TV in bed, otherwise the sympathetic nerves will be easily disturbed and you will not be able to relax.
B 營造安穩舒適的臥房:睡眠環境太吵、臥室的隔音太差,都會干擾睡眠,建議臥房內的窗簾、床單、枕頭罩等布置品盡量使用藍色系,這樣能使心情放鬆。 B Create a stable and comfortable bedroom: If the sleeping environment is too noisy and the sound insulation of the bedroom is too poor, it will interfere with sleep. It is recommended that the curtains, sheets, pillow covers and other decorations in the bedroom should be blue as much as possible, which can make you feel relaxed.
C 床和枕頭一定要舒服:床墊太軟或太硬都會導致睡姿不良、肌肉僵硬或背部痠痛的問題,通常一個舒適的床墊或枕頭,就可以大大的改善地改善睡眠品質。要注意的是,每一個人對舒適的床和枕頭的定義皆不相同,最昂貴的寢具不一定是最好、最適合自己的,所以購買之前一定要到現場親身感受床的硬度、高度選擇柔軟度最舒服的枕頭。此外,床墊一定要透氣,因為通常人體溫度必須維持於三十七度左右,如果體溫過高,就需要散熱,但不透氣的床墊無法幫助身體散熱,反而會影響睡眠。 C. The bed and pillows must be comfortable: too soft or too hard a mattress can lead to poor sleeping posture, muscle stiffness or back pain. Usually a comfortable mattress or pillow can greatly improve the quality of sleep. It should be noted that everyone has different definitions of comfortable beds and pillows. The most expensive bedding is not necessarily the best and most suitable for you, so you must go to the site to experience the hardness and height of the bed before buying. The softest pillow ever. In addition, the mattress must be breathable, because usually the human body temperature must be maintained at about 37 degrees. If the body temperature is too high, it needs to dissipate heat. However, an impermeable mattress cannot help the body dissipate heat, but will affect sleep.
D 注意睡眠環境的溫度:當臥室溫度維持在24~25度,被窩裡為27~30度睡眠品質最好。 D Pay attention to the temperature of the sleeping environment: when the temperature in the bedroom is maintained at 24-25 degrees, the quality of sleep is best when the temperature in the bed is 27-30 degrees.
E 睡眠環境的燈光宜柔和:燈光具有調節生理時鐘的作用,太亮的話會導致大腦中的褪黑激素分泌減少、難以入眠,所以入睡之前,最好選擇較暗的柔和燈光,並且在入睡之際關閉所有光源。 E The light in the sleeping environment should be soft: the light can regulate the biological clock, if it is too bright, it will reduce the secretion of melatonin in the brain and make it difficult to fall asleep. Turn off all light sources.
三、吃出良好的睡眠品質。 Third, eat a good quality of sleep.
A 減少攝取含咖啡因的飲料:咖啡因在體內的作用可維持八小時以上,如果有入睡困難問題,大約下午兩點之後,最好不要再攝取含咖啡因的食物或飲料。 五十歲後由於新陳代謝變慢,咖啡因在體內滯留時間甚至可以達到十小時,因此對咖啡因較敏感者,午餐後最好不要再碰含咖啡因的食物或飲料。 A Reduce the intake of caffeinated beverages: The effect of caffeine in the body can last for more than eight hours. If you have difficulty falling asleep, it is best not to consume caffeinated food or beverages after about two o'clock in the afternoon. After the age of fifty, due to the slowing of metabolism, caffeine can stay in the body for up to ten hours, so those who are more sensitive to caffeine, it is best not to touch caffeine-containing food or drinks after lunch.
B 晚餐不宜吃過飽:晚餐是距離睡前最近的一餐,不能吃得過飽,否則容易導致胃酸逆流,影響到睡眠品質。晚餐也不宜吃過於刺激性的食物,例如咖哩、泰式酸辣料理、油炸物或燒烤物,以免刺激神經興奮。 B Don’t eat too much for dinner: Dinner is the closest meal before going to bed. Don’t overeat, otherwise it will easily lead to acid reflux and affect the quality of sleep. It is not advisable to eat too irritating food for dinner, such as curry, Thai hot and sour food, fried food or barbecue food, so as not to stimulate the nerves.
C 睡前吃對食物,有助好眠:牛奶裡面含有色胺酸,它會使大腦裡產生五羥色胺,具有幫助睡眠的作用。睡前喝100~200毫升的牛奶可助眠,但喝多了,消化吸收的時間就會較長,反而影響睡眠。 C Eating the right food before going to bed can help you sleep well: milk contains tryptophan, which can produce serotonin in the brain, which can help sleep. Drinking 100-200 ml of milk before going to bed can help sleep, but if you drink too much, it will take longer to digest and absorb, which will affect sleep.
參閱圖1、7、8,該控制單元6於執行該評量程序時,該控制單元6控制使該虛擬影像依序顯示複數用於評估失眠狀況的失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71,每一失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71具有複數自評選項711,並可透過改變該眼罩22的方向後改變所選擇的自評選項711,並於透過該操作按鈕23的確認後產生對應所選擇的該自評選項711的一失眠與睡眠品質自評分數進行儲存,並於全部的失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71皆作答完畢後加總所有的失眠與睡眠品質自評分數後產生一失眠與睡眠品質結果分數進行儲存。於本
實施例中,該眼罩22是一次顯示一組失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71,並於對應的自評選項711選擇完畢後,再進行下一組失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71,但並不以此為限,在其他的實施態樣中,也可以同時顯示多組失眠與睡眠品質自評題目71,而該等失眠與睡眠自評題目71的來源,可以是來自如圖8的現有的睡眠品質量表,但並不以此為限。
Referring to Figures 1, 7, and 8, when the
該控制單元6於該目前時間處於上午八點至下午五點執行該日間輔助程序時,該控制單元6控制使該虛擬影像顯示包括日間的山、海或湖泊等自然場景,並以該等耳機21播放音效讓該使用者沉浸在自然場景的體驗中,例如,當使用者選擇海灘時,該虛擬影像顯示大海和海浪,音效則播送海浪聲,並可隨該虛擬實境單元2改變方向而產生對應變化。

申請人以十位受試者進行實驗,經睡眠多項生理監測(Polysomnography,PSG)檢查,藉由標準腦波判讀後,得出如圖12的實驗結果,可以得知所有受試者的躺床入睡時間都得以縮短,以最右方的受試者為例,在振動床振動前需要113分鐘(見橫軸)後才能入睡,而在振動床振動後則僅需要35分鐘(見縱軸)後就能入睡,經過配對t檢定後,於統計學上的p值為0.000122,顯示其統計值有意義,即代表經過振動床振動後,能夠有效改善失眠狀況。 The applicant conducted an experiment with ten subjects. After polysomnography (PSG) examination and standard electroencephalogram interpretation, the experimental results shown in Figure 12 were obtained, and the bed rest of all subjects could be known. The time to fall asleep was shortened. Taking the subject on the far right as an example, it took 113 minutes (see the horizontal axis) before the vibrating bed to fall asleep, but only 35 minutes after the vibrating bed (see the vertical axis) After that, you can fall asleep. After the paired t-test, the statistical p-value is 0.000122, which shows that the statistical value is meaningful, which means that the insomnia can be effectively improved after the vibrating bed vibrates.
