Well, i know exactly the right person to answer that question for you. Let me introduce you to mike lindell, inventor of my pillow. Hi, mike. Hello, terri. How you doing . Im doing great, and you . Good. Good. I must say, mike, i never thought i would be standing here, talking to you about a pillow. I guess i just assumed that a pillow was a pillow was a pillow. Terri, thats what everyone believes. Weve been lied to all our lives by the pillow industry i dont wear the same size shoe or tshirt as you, so why would we think onesizefitsall would work for anyone . I had memory foams, i had feather pillows, and id always wake up with neck pain. After sleeping on my pillow, i didnt wake up with the headaches, i was more aligned, everything felt good. Before my pillow, sleeping was a nightmare. I didnt look forward to it. Flipping the pillows over, bunching the pillows up. With the my pillow, i dont need to do that anymore. Well, terri, it goes back to when i was 16 years old. I actually spent my whole first paycheck on a pillow, and that didnt work, by the way. My pillows would go flat, id use my arm, id always flipflop. Id have all these problems sleeping. And throughout my life, i bought every pillow out there, and nothing worked. Then i started asking people, do you have the same problems . I thought it was weird. I thought i was the only one out there having these problems. I started asking people, do you have these problems . The problems were the pillow it wasnt the beds, it wasnt this, it wasnt that. It was pillows, and so i thought, im going to go invent the worlds most comfortable pillow and help everybody get the best sleep of their lives. I wasnt sleeping well, my neck would be stiff. I didnt realize the connection between the pillow and sleep. When i switched to my pillow, i got a better nights sleep and i love it. Before my pillow, i had difficulty sleeping through the night. Now with my pillow, i have a good nights sleep every night because it gave me a restful nights sleep, one that i had not had before. Well, mike, my pillow is really changing the way america is sleeping. 23 Million People have already discovered the revolutionary my pillow. Can you tell us what makes my pillow so different than any other pillow out there . Absolutely, terri. Were going to go through a little timeline of pillows here. This is, by the way, a down pillow just like the one i bought s on this, shell lay down, and were going to show you. Weve all went through this you lay on down, it feels comfortable right away, and what does it do . It goes down. Down is down, it becomes your neck is bent. And then what do we have a tendency to do . We stick our arm under there. And we prop ourselves up with our arm. Whats it going to do to her arm . Whatd it do to you when you had down . My arm fell asleep and my neck got sore. Yeah, and thats everybody. Down pillows are the worst things then they have a lot of pillows made out of fiberfill, and weve all slept on these. You lay on them, and its like a trampoline. You move them, and theyre not going to hold that position. You need something that keeps your neck straight at night for you, and this is not the job. Its like goldilocks and the three bears. Wed be better off stacking phone books, i always said, and putting a towel over it to get the right height for our neck. Then they came out with the memory foam. Remember this one . Oh, yeah. When this came out, we all , this is a great idea its going to match my neck perfect. And i got it and im going, well, like we said before, we all have different size shoes, we all have different size shirts, our necks are different. How dare the pillow industry tell us that this was going to work for all of us . Im going to take this for becca, and im going to push this down to get to her comfort level. Right there . Good, mmhmm. Shes good. Now if you sit up, becca. Right there, this would be too low for me, it might be too high for you, this is beccas exact height, would be too low. What if you were able to get a device that you could adjust it and get exactly what you need for an individual . It would be amazing. Yeah, it would. Guess what . Here it is whoa. Its my pillow. When i invented my pillow now you watch becca will lay on this, and you adjust it. She gets exactly what she needs for her. Whether youre a sidesleeper, a backsleeper, stomachsleeper, it doesnt matter. My pillow does two things that no other pillow does in the world. It doesnt go flat during the night and its supporting her exactly where she needs it the arch of her neck. If you looked inside her neck, if you could, its lined up perfect for her sleeping on her side. Now if she goes to her back, if becca goes to her back, she can take it and she adjusts it exactly for her back sleeping. Now look at this we talked about that curved pillow before. Thats her comfort level. Look at this, its amazing. Its exactly curved for becca. Terri, sleep is all about avoiding sleep interruptions. With my patented fill with my pillow, you can adjust my pillow to fit you instead of you trying to fit the pillow.

My pillow holds the shape that you put it in that you need for your sleep. Its the perfect thing every night. Its always the same.

My pillow hasnt done me wrong for 12 years. Im so sold on my pillow, and so are you. Mike, ive known you for a long time, and i think your story is amazing. Well, i actually came up with the logo first, before the pillow. I thought it was a great name my pillow. It is. Then i worked on it for about a year and a half. I tried all kinds of fills. I tried everything that you can imagine to go into a pillow. I knew what i wanted, and i was reverseengineering it. It was just trial and error, trial and error. Then when i finally came up with it finally worked, then i had to invent the machine that made the inside fill, the patented fill. So it was a year and a half of struggle. Where did you take it after that . Well, then i actually took the pillow and i went down to a im not going to name the box store. I said, i have the best pillow ever made. How many would you like . He goes, you cant see our buyer, and it was a shutout. I went everywhere. Id go, ive got the best pillow ever. Ive got the best pillow ever. I gave pillows out to my friends and family, and i knew it worked. I was getting amazing feedback, and somebody said, why dont you do a kiosk . I didnt know what a kiosk was. I said, here, im out of cards, and i wrote it on a piece of paper and gave it to him. Lo and behold, one of them called me in january and said, are you the guy that invented this pillow in minnesota . I said, yeah, and he goes, this thing created a miracle in my life. He said, i run a home and garden show. Would you like to be in it . Im going, sure. Wow. Im going, sure, ill try it. I actually sold out in four days. Then i got noticed by other shows. Then it set off a thing where for the next six years i did shows. Yeah. And when did the really big break hit . It was in january 3rd of 2011. One of the big papers in minnesota did an article about me in the business section. I had calls that day. I had told my friend, i said, i had my phone set. It would go beep, beep, and he goes, whats that . I said, thats an order coming in. I said, someday my phone, im going to have to turn it off its going to beep so much, and all of a sudden beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, that article launched that morning and im going, wow this is incredible. People just like whats real, and i thought, you know what . Im going to bring the pillow to the people. My friends and family, we got together in the spring of 2011, and i said, i want to make an infomercial thats real, right from the heart, a real audience. It launched on october 7th, 2011. I was living in my sisters basement. At 3 00 in the morning it came on. When that launched, we actually went from five or 10 employees it was just an explosion, and it was right before christmas that year. We became the number one infomercial in the world. All i wanted was to make sure everybody got their christmas presents in time. It was surreal. Well, i have a little surprise for you, mike. I asked our producers to dig into the archives and queue up some scenes from that very first infomercial. Lets take a look. Whats going on here . Weve all slept with this pillow here. This pillow here, it pushes back. You know when you sleep on your back . Yep, yep. You can feel that pillow. Its like a spring, its pushing your back. Right. Youre on your back, and youre like this, with a tilted neck. This is no good, okay . This pillow here, it becomes a hard surface. Weve all slept on that, with the curve. The problem is pillows give you support here and here, and you need support in your neck. This one here and also you need to be kept cool. This pillow here will heat up. Aughing what about this one . This one here is ruining america. Oh, my gosh. Weve all slept on this, theres no support. Absolutely. This has done more for bad sleep deprivation than anything anywhere. This pillow here, i cant say enough bad things about it. Its terrible. The best thing youre going to like about this pillow is i get the deep, healing sleep, the stuff that helps all your health, how you feel the next day. The stuff is warrantied 10 years it wont go flat, but the best thing it does wherever you set this, until you first get comfortable on your pillow and youre like this and you go like this. Connie, i want you to feel that. See how that holds. Oh, my gosh, its soft. That will not migrate. But supportive. Wherever you set that, you get exactly what you need for your individual neck support. You can turn this any way you want. You can make little balloon animals out of it if you want. Its going to hold. So wherever you set that, its amazing. It will change your life. Theres nothing like it on the planet. Its just amazing. Wow, those were funny parts from that infomercial. Everybody will call up and say, can you believe the guy did this . But it was so real. We had so much fun making it. We just left that in there because it was real. Well, mike, you havent changed a bit and neither has your personal promise and guarantee. Thats right, terri. I still have my 10year warranty and my 60day moneyback guarantee. For 10 years really helped sell me on it, to know that its a great product. It shows a lot of integrity with the company, to realize that they stand by their product and that they do believe highly in what the product is. In the general products that you buy nowadays, you dont get that kind of a warranty, but that also tells you they stand behind this product and that it really does what he says itll do. You know, you dont hear stories like yours very often, mike. And youve certainly come a long way. To now over a quarter million square feet and having over 1100 employees is just surreal. And were all very proud to be making all of it, still, in my home state of minnesota. I feel truly blessed, but at the end of the day, the most important thing to me has always been about helping every individual get a better nights sleep. I know that sleep is the most important thing to your health and my pillow is the most important thing to your sleep. Until i found my pillow, i did not have a solution, and now i do. I sleep better.

Overall, its just a better nights sleep. You know, hardly a day goes by where i dont hear someone complain about being tired, mike. Terri, its true. So many people out there are using sleep aids to get to sleep at night. And the first thing they do in the morning, even if theyve slept eight hours, is get up and look for coffee or energy drinks. Sleep affects everything we do. How we interact with other people. Road rage. Road rage, there you go. With my pillow, thats my passion, is to help everyone in this world get the best sleep of their life. It affects your whole day, when you cant sleep. I just really wanted to have one pillow that i could trust every single night for a good nights sleep, and my pillow was it. Because of the type of job that i do, i need my rest and i need to be awake. My pillow helps me get a good nights sleep my pillow is great because i feel like my entire body is more in line. Sleeping on a my pillow i do believe ensures a good nights sleep. Mike, can we get a closer look at what makes my pillow different and unique . Terri, weve got to start from the beginning with pillows and showing the problem. We all start out this is the one, actually, i was 16 years old when i bought one like this, spent my whole paycheck on a down pillow thinking, more money, better pillow. Yeah. You lay on this, and it just goes flat. So what do we do . We start scrunching it up. You flipflop all night long on this pillow. Youre always refluffing and then its just going flat as soon as you lay on it. But if you take the concept of a down pillow. What if there was something we could move it and it would hold . Hold that thought. All right, will do. That ones horrible. Then you have the fiber fill. This pillow here is like a sponge and a spring. So if you dont match that exactly, youre doomed. This pillow is going to be your head is up in the air. Your heads up in the air, or if its too low, youre folding, and then its its like a spring, so its just the opposite. And then we have the memory foam pillow. When this came out, this curve, i thought, this is so cool. Its going to match my neck perfectly, and its going to work. First of all, when i tried this pillow, it didnt match me. As too low. So im going, what if there was such a device that you could make your own curve exactly for you as an individual, whether you were a side, back, stomach, it wouldnt matter. Thats what i did with my pillow. The number one reason i invented my pillow was to get you the best sleep of your life. The way you get that is keeping your support exactly for you at night. And with my patented fill this one took the longest. I spent over a year and a half developing this one. Theres three different sizes. They said, mike, youre never going to get a patent on a pillow. I had half the people laughing at me, and the other half are going, if you ever come up with it, let me know. I have the same problems. Ones the size of a quarter. Ones the size of a dime. And ones the size of down. All three sizes are mixed together, a proportional amount of each in the pillow, so wherever i move the pillow, wherever i set it. If you put your hand there, you see how that holds. Yeah, absolutely. That holds exactly. So if im laying on my side, i take it and i mold it and i get exactly what i need for my side sleeping. The difference between my pillow and every other pillow out there its going to stay there. Its going to hold that in position. The weight of my head holds that in position. Its soft, but yet i get the exact support for me. If i got to my back, im taking the pillow, im tucking it behind my back. I get the exact curve for me. Wow instead of trying to fit the pillow, i make the pillow fit me. Its just amazing. Not only that, you can wash and dry my pillow every time. Yeah, it didnt make sense if i made a pillow that lasts 10 years, i had to make it that you can wash and dry it so it stays healthy for that whole 10 years. Id say that your 60day moneyback guarantee and 10year warranty on my pillow certainly says loud and clear that youre willing to stand behind the product that you make. Yes, terri, its very important to me that everyone who buys my pillow is completely confident, after i got my pillow, they had a couple little directions, and i thought, boy, that seems like a really simple way to do it, but i slept, i closed my eyes and two minutes later i was out. I tried a couple other more expensive pillows that were the foam pillows or memory foam, and it just didnt really work. As soon as i tried the my pillow, it worked out great. I think that it is the most comfortable pillow ive ever had. It basically conforms to whatever your body requires you know, mike, i think the reason why so Many Americans relate to you is that you built your company from the ground up. Yes, terri. And you know, i do all my own manufacturing. I have over 1100 employees in my home state of minnesota. Everyone gets a pillow when they come to work for me, and they know then that every pillow that goes off that line, they have the same passion i do that i just made the best pillow ever, is i wanted also the best Customer Service ever, so my Customer Service center is right outside my office and every call that comes in, i want them treated just how i would want to be treated. What an amazing journey youve had, from a little garage in minnesota to now having sold over 23 million pillows . And not only that, my pillow is the official pillow of the National Sleep foundation. Yeah, it has been amazing, terri. I feel so blessed even to be a part of it. And id like to thank each and every one of you out there for making this possible. Announcer do you wake up feeling tired, toss and turn all night, or have trouble falling asleep . You are not alone. People all across america arent getting good rest. Its not only the amount of sleep you get thats important its the quality of sleep. Other pillows simply dont work. A restful nights sleep, one that i had not had before. As soon as i tried the my pillow, it worked out great. I stopped tossing and turning as much. I sleep better. I wake up, i feel refreshed, i feel healthy. Hello, im mike lindell, inventor of my pillow. Just like you, i had problems sleeping. I tried every pillow out there and nothing worked, so thats why i invented my pillow. It took me almost two years to develop because i wanted to have everything youd ever want in a pillow. I made sure my patented fill would adjust to your exact, and it holds that position all night long to take the pressure off your shoulders and keep your neck aligned so you get the best sleep of your life.

I will tell you right now, also, thats a nice spicy lovely rub on there. Whatever that is. Thats quite tasty. A little hot sauce. It has a little bit of sauce.

How do you make it . I use lighter blue cheese bleu cheese and butter milk. You will cut 311 calories and 38 grams of fat. You are also cutting 800 milligrams of sodium off the traditl, sugar. I am seeing chicken skewers. This is chicken patte, and peanut dipping sauce. And a lot of times you know how its globbed on, and you want the flavor across the entire chicken w. That, i add a bit of low Sodium Chicken broth to it, making it thinner and you could have more on there. And then my marinade has a lot less oil. And not too sweet. And not too sweet. Exactly. Again, natural ingredients. Dr. Travis the garlic, i love it. And last but not least, a good dip is key, right . This is a mediterranean layer dip. I created this. To make something so much fresher. Hummus, with greek yogurt, tomatoes, cucumber and onions and reduced fat feta, and olives, seasoning like lime juice, the hummus is garlic. Cheese with refryed beans that have lard in them, and salsa instead doing it fresh. On whole wheat or so you dot the do the wholewheat pita triangles.

Dr. Travis heres whats breaking in todays news in two announcer tomorrows president ial will be a nail biter. . . [ applause ] dr. Travis did you know approximately 264 billion cigarettes were sold just last year here in the u. S. . Thats a lot enough to fill up the entire Empire State Building two andahalf times [ audience oohs ] audience wow. Dr. Travis adults with a Mental Illness smoke one third of all of those cigarettes and back to help us with this subject lewishall, chief medical officer of pfizer. Welcome back. This is such an important issue. Here in the United States, smoking is one of the reasons that people with chronic Mental Illnesses die up to 25 years earlier than the general population. They have a smoking rate that is 65 higher than those without Mental Illnesses, and as a result, their smoke suggest triggers life threatening illnesses like . Even diabetes. Dr. Travis well, one in 5 people in the u. S. Here live with chronic Mental Illness, bipolar, schizophrenia, panic attackings and anxiety, and post Traumatic Stress syndrome, these are all types of Mental Illness. Misconceptions about Mental Illness may be a barrier to getting effective treatment to stop smoking. Dr. Travis so, lets talk a little bit about some of the myths that surround heres a big one. Myth 1, smokers with Mental Illness may not want to quit smoking. How many of you think thats true . This is a common myth. But it is a myth. Research tells us that people with Mental Illnesses who smoke are just as interested in quitting as all other smokers. The problem is, smoking cessization is often cessation is not part of the treatment plan. They are not asked if they smoke or if they are dr. Travis myth 2 smokers are Mental Illness cant quit smoking. Absolutely a myth. Research tells us with a treatment plan thats developed aligned with the willingness to quit, and continued follow up care for treatment, that people with Mental Illnesses who smoke, are able to successfully quit. Dr. Travis treating tobacco dependence is challenging for all smokers, no matter who you are, nico a ready to give it a try. I have been smoking off and on for about, i would say, 10 years. About 6 months ago i was diagnosed with anxiety , and of course, i am smoking to help ease that. But its not helping. And i want a healthier life. I need to know what to do. . . Dr. Travis and this is important. Whether or not you live with way Mental Illness, quitting smoking, one of the best things you can do for when you stop smoking your bodys physiology immediately starts improving. Heart rate and Blood Pressure may start to normalize, Carbon Monoxide levels level, and you have improvements. People with Mental Illnesses report positive changes after quitting smoking, as well.
