			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Retired people and couples sometimes spend all of their time traveling in an RV or travel trailer.  These people are considered &#8216;full time RV&#8217;ers.&#8217;  An RV is a usually described as a vehicle that doubles as a temporary travel home.  An RV is also sometimes called a motor home.</p>
<p>See what others are saying about Rocky Mountain Mattress:</p>
<blockquote><p>You recently shipped me a topper for our queen size home mattress that was reported to be cooler due to the cellular construction. It has more than met our expectations and my wife is ecstatic, as she now sleeps in cooler comfort. In addition, you <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/company/custom-mattress.php">made a short queen for our Airstream 25 foot trailer</a> that has similarly returned sleep to a child-like blissful state. I am amazed by your craftsmanship and timely delivery. Count me as a super satisfied customer that would and have <strong>already recommended you to others.</strong></p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Dr. Terry Kneisler</p></blockquote>

<p>RVs are perfect for short-time leisure.  RVs make the perfect home-away-from-home on vacations, camping or even full-time living.  At the least, an RV contains a bed, a table, a place for food-preparation and places for storage.  Larger and more luxurious RVs have full bathrooms, refrigerators, living area, a master bedroom, etc.  The most luxurious RVs can even have Internet access, satellite TV, awnings, etc.  RVs can cost anywhere from $10,000 to $1,500,000 or more.</p>
<p>A travel trailer is often used for the same purposes but are a bit different.  A travel trailer is simply a trailer that is pulled behind a vehicle.  Travel trailers provide a place to sleep and can be used as a temporary home.  Travel trailers that are used for full-time use are larger than those that are used for summer vacationing or shorter trips.  Large travel trailers can provide all of the comforts of a luxury condominium.  Many travel trailers are equipped with beds, a bathroom, a kitchen area, storage, a living area, etc.</p>
<p>What is the most important component for an RV or travel trailer to have if used full-time?  A mattress.  It is so important to have good quality mattresses in your RV or travel trailer, especially if you plan on living there.  RVs and travel trailers often come with cheap mattresses.  These mattresses won&#8217;t provide any support or comfort for a short period of time, so how can you expect it to give you the comfort and support you need on a full-time basis?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don&#8217;t you want to know the secret to improve your quality of sleep?  By improving the quality of sleep you get each night, you can increase your level of productivity.  As your productivity increases, your quality of life will also increase.  It&#8217;s simple.  Just follow these five easy tips.</p>
<p><center><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2673/3925121804_c92a7b910d.jpg" alt="sleep like a baby" /></center></p>
<p><strong>1.  Pay it out.</strong>  Don&#8217;t shortchange your body when it comes to sleep.  For every 30 minutes of sleep that you lose, your sleep debt increases.  As you accumulate more sleep debt, you will begin to see and feel the short term and long term effects.  Not getting enough sleep affects your mood, your heath and your overall performance.  The average person needs about 8 hours of sleep every night.  The ideal amount is anywhere from 7.5 hours to 8.5 hours.  It is important to get the same amount of sleep every night so that your body can get acclimated to a normal schedule.</p>
<p><strong>2.  Evaluation time.</strong>  Do you remember when you had to fill out performance evaluations for your professors when you were still in school?  Well, it&#8217;s time to go back to the performance evaluation basics.  Except, this time you won&#8217;t be evaluating your professors&#8230;you&#8217;ll be evaluating your performance.  Also, evaluate the performance of your mattress.  Although physical signs may not be evident, think about how it affects the quality of sleep that you get.  Is it as comfortable as when you bought it?  Does it still support your entire body?  The age of your mattress directly affects the quality of sleep you get.<br />
<strong><br />
3.  The bedroom. </strong> Your bedroom should be used for certain things, and certain things only.  Keep this room uncluttered and free of &#8220;knick-knacks.&#8221; Don&#8217;t use your bedroom for other purposes like folding the laundry, a second office, etc.  In order to provide the ideal atmosphere for sleeping, your bedroom should be a warm, inviting and relaxing space. </p>
<p><strong>4.  No more caffeine.</strong>  Studies show that caffeine directly interferes with &#8220;getting a restful night&#8217;s sleep and waking refreshed in the morning.&#8221;  As you begin getting ready for bed, stay away from anything with caffeine in it.  This includes chocolate, tea, coffee and soft drinks.</p>
<p><strong>5.  Invest.</strong>  One of the most important investments you will ever make will be your mattress.  The average person spends approximately 1/3 of his/her lifetime asleep.  Don&#8217;t scrimp when it comes to a good <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com">quality mattress</a>.  Choose a mattress that is completely comfortable and supportive for your individual body.  Spending more money on a good mattress will provide you with health, happiness and productivity.</p>
<p>Getting a good night&#8217;s sleep isn&#8217;t hard anymore.  Simply follow these easy tips to improve your sleep and your productivity.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the most part, women feel that it is very important to stay healthy.  A survey conducted by the Better Sleep Council says that more and more women are having an increased interest in the quality of sleep they get.  These women feel that several things are central to overall health and well-being including: a proper diet, exercise and a good night&#8217;s sleep. </p>
<p>Although many woman are taking more of an interest in sleep, most women are failing to get the amount and quality of sleep that they need.  Studies show that women are more sleep deprived than men.  In general, women have a more difficult time falling asleep and staying asleep.  Women also experience more daytime sleepiness than men. </p>
<p><center><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/141/361565965_5510f2c866.jpg" alt="surprising facts about women and sleep" /> <br /> <a href="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/141/361565965_5510f2c866.jpg">Image via Flickr</a></center></p>
<p><strong>Here are some surprising facts about women and sleep.</strong></p>
<p>-68% of American women say that they sleep less than the recommended average (8 hours)<br />
-Three factors affect women the most and cause the most sleeplessness.  These factors are:<br />
        -Work and/or family stress<br />
        -Health ailments (i.e. allergies or a cold)<br />
        -Uncomfortable mattresses or pillows<br />
-66.7% of women admit that a &#8220;balanced lifestyle requires a proper diet, regular exercise, and a good night&#8217;s sleep.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Studies also show which women are the worst sleepers.</strong> </p>
<p><strong>Divorced and Separated Women</strong><br />
The Better Sleep Council says, &#8220;Women who are divorced or separated were 9-points more likely than single women, and 6-points more likely than married women to say they get, at most, 5 hours of sleep a night.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Northeast and West Coast Women</strong><br />
Did you ever think that where you live affects the amount of sleep you get?  The Better Sleep Council has found that women who live in the Northeast and West Coast regions of the United States have more trouble sleeping than those people who live in other regions.</p>
<p><strong>Non-Professional Women</strong><br />
Professional woman actually sleep better than women who work inside the home.  In fact, women who work inside the home are 8-points more likely to get less sleep than they need.  Professional women are actually the most likely to get a good night&#8217;s sleep.</p>
<p><strong>Minorities</strong><br />
Women who are in the minority have more trouble sleeping.  Hispanic women were 5-points more likely than White women to report not getting enough sleep.  African-American women were 14-points more likely than White women to report not getting enough sleep.</p>
<p>As a woman, it is so important that we get the quality of sleep that we need.  Our lives, productivity and relationships depend on maintaining a balanced lifestyle.  A balanced lifestyle does include: a balanced diet, exercise and getting a good night&#8217;s sleep.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Latex mattresses have been around for quite some time.  However, these mattresses are gaining popularity among the general public.  Top quality latex mattresses are more comfortable and longer-lasting than traditional mattresses.  There are two kinds of latex mattresses: Talalay mattresses and Dunlop mattresses.  Let&#8217;s take a closer look at how Talalay mattresses are made.</p>
<p>Talalay latex mattresses use the Talalay process to manufacture and produce the latex.  This process uses the finest materials and produces the finest latex. </p>
<p><center><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3060/3250651577_095cfb1e26.jpg" alt="how is latex made" /></center></p>
<p>The Talalay process is as follows:<br />
<strong>1.  Rubber is taken from the natural rubber tree.<br />
2.  Liquid rubber is then whipped so that it becomes a foam-material.  It is then poured into a mold.<br />
3.  The mold is closed and rods are inserts through the foamed rubber.<br />
4.  A vacuum is placed on top of the mold.  This vaccum removes all air bubbles and pockets.  It also distributes the rubber (in its liquid form) evenly throughout the mold.<br />
5.  The rods are turned on; they contain CO2 which freezes the rubber.  This step is critical because it locks in the consistency.<br />
6.  Next, heat is sent through the rods.  Heat provides an even temperature and delivers a consistent latex core that does not contain air bubbles, air pockets or uneven firmness.</strong></p>
<p>The Talalay process does not use any chemical fillers or extenders in its products.  There are a few products that are added to the rubber to convert it from a liquid to a solid material.  These products are: soap, ammonia, zinc oxide and sulfur.  There is a very small amount of these products in Talalay latex mattress, so these mattresses are still considered natural.  Plus, the ammonia evaporates out of the finished product.  The soap and the zinc oxide are washed out. </p>
<p>There are two main forms of Talalay latex:  Blended Talalay latex and <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/-p-89.html">Natural Talalay Latex</a>.  Blended Talalay latex products contain 30 percent natural rubber and 70 percent synthetic rubber.  Natural Talalay latex products do not use any fillers.  These products use 100 percent latex rubber from the rubber tree.

Comfort.</strong>  When was the last time you <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/blog/2009/03/10/top-5-reasons-to-replace-your-old-stinky-mattress/">replaced your mattress</a>?  Have you been sleeping on the same mattress for more than 8 years?  10 years?  15 years?  20 years?  If so, it is definitely time to replace your mattress.  It is important to choose a mattress that is comfortable.  Common sense tells us that a comfortable mattress equals a good night&#8217;s sleep and that an uncomfortable mattress equals a sleepless night.  Choose a mattress that provides comfort to your individual body. </p>
<p><strong>2.  Support. </strong> All too often, people sleep on a mattress that does provide the correct quality of support.  It is so important that your entire body is properly supported while you sleep.  Much of the fatigue people feel when they wake up in the morning is attributed to incorrect support.  Remember that everyone needs different support.  Choose a mattress that will also keep your spine properly aligned.  This is another important element for a good night&#8217;s sleep.</p>
<p><strong>3.  The right mattress</strong>.  Do you use an innerspring mattress?  Do you think that that is the only type of mattress out there?  Well, think again.  There are many kinds of mattresses.  If you have been sleeping on an innerspring mattress your entire life and aren&#8217;t getting the rest you need, it is probably time to invest in another kind of mattress.  You can choose from air mattresses, water beds, <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com">memory foam mattresses</a> and latex foam mattresses.  Each of these mattresses come with its own list of pros and cons.  Customers seem to be more satisfied with the latex foam mattresses, but these are pricey.  Carefully consider a new kind of mattress to overcome sleepless nights.</p>
<p>A good bed may be just what you need to overcome sleepless nights.  Try these suggestions to make sure you choose the right bed and the right mattress.  Kiss those sleepless nights goodbye.

<p>More and more people are becoming aware of <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/green-c-29.html">latex mattresses</a>.  These mattresses are extremely popular because of their comfort and support.  Many people around the world admit that latex mattresses are the most comfortable mattress on the market today.</p>
<p>Latex mattresses are made naturally from the sap of rubber trees.  The rubber is usually whipped to create a foam-like substance.  The foam is then poured into a mold to cure.  The Talalay process uses a vacuum and rods to remove all of the air bubbles, distribute the material evenly throughout the mold and to lock in the consistency.  The Dunlop process does not use the vacuum or freezing processes but does steam the mold to cure the material.  Either way, latex mattresses are durable, natural, comfortable and supportive. </p>
<p>Latex mattresses are probably the best option for heavier individuals.  Innerspring mattresses wear down quickly with heavier weight, which leads to coils and springs poking the individual all night long.  Memory foam mattresses could be a better option.  However, the more weight that is added, the faster memory foam will break down as well.  Memory foam loses its characteristics and benefits once it is broken down.  Instead of being supportive and long-lasting, memory foam can sag once it is broken down.</p>
<p>Latex mattresses are the best option for heavier individuals because of many reasons.  Latex mattresses come with a stronger core than traditional mattresses.  They are also much more durable than other mattresses.  The typical life of a traditional mattress is between 5-7 years.  The typical life of a latex mattress is 20+ years.  Latex mattresses incorporate all of the benefits of memory foam mattresses, without any of the cons.  Latex mattresses are more breathable and do not come with a disturbing odor the way memory foam mattresses do.</p>
<p>If you need a more durable mattress or want one that will support the entire weight of your body, you need to try a <a href="http://www.rockymountainmattress.com/green-c-29.html">latex mattress</a>.  Latex mattresses are the only good option for heavier individuals.
