There are, fortunately, many alternative and even natural methods to sleep aids, and aromatherapy may well be one of them.

Specific odors are known to draw certain emotions out of the body, or to stimulate the body’s resources in such a way that treating or even curing certain ailments — like insomnia — is possible.

You must remember, however, that aromatherapy will not behave as an aid for sleep; it will not actually make you go to sleep. It may, however, help your subconscious to deal with the issues or stress factors keeping you awake.

A study was presented before the meeting of the American Academy of Otalaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Foundation held in San Diego recently. The research concludes that riding with the windows down for exposes people to high noise levels which may damage hearing in the long run.

A British doctor who is himself a fan of convertibles tested some top down rides for their noise levels while cruising at 50 to 70 miles. The average noise level was recorded at 88-90 decibels which is about 4 to 5 decibels above the safe range for the human ears.

Slowing down to try and decrease the level of noise will also not work since the noise is coming from the road traffic which includes the engines, tires, and other cars and trucks on the road. Driving slower will expose you to the noise of the overtaking vehicles and subject you to higher noise levels.

Convertible owners can roll up the window a bit so the noise from the wind which makes most of the 85 decibels can be decreased.

More studies are being suggested to look into the noise levels before and after driving. A follow up study for those who are driving enclosed vehicles with rolled down windows will also be conducted.
