Are your ears constantly ringing? Mine were, and I always wondered "...why are my ears ringing anyway?"  Well I finally found a cure. I had been suffering with the annoying ringing for over 10 years! I thought it was one of those things I'd have to learn to live with but I'm happy to say my ears are no longer ringing!

When I was younger and noticed my ears ringing it was usually after a concert and I knew it would go away soon. As I got older it became more frequent and louder until I became aware of the fact that they were constantly ringing and it was not something that was temporary any longer.

I made a doctor appointment to talk to her about it and after my examination, she told me there was no infection therefore nothing she could do for me. She said that what I have is called tinnitis.  It is caused from too much loud noise either from my environment or day to day activities.

Whether you're at work or home listening to your headphones, or are repeatedly exposed to loud outside noises, my doctor said that all it takes is listening to a loud type of noise or sounds over and over again to cause permanent tinnitus. She also said another cause for Tinnitis is STRESS.

So If you are exposed to loud noise and you also have a lot of stress in your life, you are a good candidate for tinnitis. With stress added to the mix, it can be far worse than if it were simply the exposure to lots of noise.

But if you can stay away from the triggers that cause tinnitis, i.e. loud noises and stress, there is good news! No matter how long you have suffered from tinnitis, you can stop it within weeks!

If a doctor prescribes medicine, it is for treating the symptoms, but doesn't get to what's causing the ringing in the first place. More often than not, people who try medication, are not satisfied or cured because medication will treat the symptom, but not the causes of the symptoms, and so medications don't work.

So see if you can remove the noises surrounding you plus reduce the stress by doing daily exercises, yoga and/or meditation. I found the perfect exercise for me is my new Wii Fit. If you've read my other articles, the one about Getting a Great Body Fast, you'll know that I use my Wii Fit religiously.

The Wii Fit is the best thing I've ever found for exercising because I hate to exercise, but now I can actually do it every day and like it! By exercising and reducing the noise around me I have addressed the triggers and not the symptoms, and within weeks, I noticed the ringing in my ears was gone! Plus I lost pounds and inches! Bonus!
