Are you getting enough sleep?

If the answer is no, did you know that the surgery Health and Wellbeing Coach can support you to improve sleep with some simple behaviour changes.

💤Sleep is a basic human need like breathing, eating and drinking. It’s vital for good health and wellbeing.
It helps our brains work properly which helps us to learn and remember information.

✔️Amongst other things, the physical benefits are that it heals and repairs your heart and blood vessels, supports healthy growth, and improves your body’s ability to fight germs and sickness.

💜With all those benefits, it's important to try and get a good night sleep.

If you'd like to find out more, please contact your surgery and book a telephone consultation with the Health and wellbeing Coach.
