Here's Tip 3 from the Integrated Healthcare Collaborative (IHC) Sustainable Healthcare campaign:

Sleep well. Two simple words. How often have you said that to a friend or loved one? Unfortunately, surveys consistently show that around a third of people don’t get a good night’s sleep. The amount of sleep that people are getting is dropping too, in both adults and children. That’s a worry, as getting a good night’s sleep is crucial for physical and mental wellbeing. In fact, sleep is as important for good health as diet and exercise.

Sleep is an essential function. It allows your body and mind to recharge and restore energy levels. Good sleep improves your brain performance, mood, and health. It helps the body stave off diseases, process information, and undergo a number of maintenance processes amongst other things. Without enough sleep, the brain cannot function properly. It’s importance can’t be stressed enough.

Take this opportunity to think about your sleep. Do you get enough sleep? How is the quality of your sleep? Start by creating a relaxing sleep environment and establish a routine, as poor sleep hygiene can often be a cause of sleep problems. Things like going to bed and getting up at the same time can help with this, as can avoiding caffeine and tech before bedtime. There can of course be underlying issues which are making it hard for you to sleep, so don’t be afraid to seek professional help to talk through these issues and look for natural, sustainable ways to support you in getting better sleep.

Good quality sleep lays the foundations for good health and wellbeing, so start to prioritise and protect your sleep today.

As part of the campaign for Sustainable Healthcare Day that took place on 6 April, the Integrated Healthcare Collaborative (IHC) - which includes CNHC as an Associate Member - want to give you some tools that could help. In fact, they’re going to give you one tip a week to try for a year.

This is tip number 2:
How much water and other fluids do you drink each day? If you’re one of those people who goes through the day and gets so wrapped up doing things that you forget to drink, then take this opportunity to make keeping hydrated an integral part of your day. Whilst the NHS recommends you drink around 6-8 240ml glasses a day, or about 2 litres, other experts say that it’s better to trust your own thirst mechanism, and don’t ignore it when it tells you that you are thirsty. After all, we’re all individuals with different lifestyles and needs, which vary depending on factors like activity level, climate, and overall health. What is sure is that water in the body is essential to ensure that all bodily functions are able to take place as normal - regulating body temperature; keeping joints lubricated and skin healthy; preventing infections; delivering nutrients to cells and keeping organs functioning properly, and so much more. Studies have also shown that being well-hydrated improves sleep quality, cognition and mood.

Why not start by keeping a water diary, and see how much fluid you actually drink during the day. Then you can start to build keeping yourself hydrated into your everyday routine. There’s no excuses with this one, it’s easy to do, and vital to help your body function properly.

Follow the IHC campaign over the coming year to help you sustain your health and wellbeing,. We’d love you to share your own tips too. Tell us what you do in the comments below, and maybe it’ll help someone else to improve their health and wellbeing.
