Nighttime can often be when our minds go into overdrive. This can lead to insomnia and/or nightmares which throw out our sleep pattern often creating a toxic cycle of poor sleep, tiredness and even further increased anxiety. Take steps to create a good evironment to set you up with a healthy sleep pattern.

At this time of year particularly we may be under excess amounts of stress and sometimes we don't even recognise the symptoms and instead make excuses like tiredness, the weather etc. This often leads to us getting physically ill with colds and viruses. Pause for thought and recognise when you are operating under extra stress and seek to alleviate it before the illness strikes!
