As the festive season approaches it’s easy to get wrapped up in gifts and gatherings. For most, it is a time of joy and celebration. However, for others it can be a lonely and isolated time.
Those who are affected with social isolation can be uncomfortable asking for help, so reaching out, whether through a text or dropping by can make a substantial difference to them.
If you or someone you know is struggling during this time please pop by and see me in clinic, there is a wealth of help out there.
Yawning, heavy eyes, fuzzy vision and day dreaming are all warning signs of tiredness. ⚠️
Dinking coffee, opening the windows or turning up the radio are all temporary fixes. If you’re on a long journey and you feel tired stop. Take a break. Sleep.
In 2022 we spent on average 2 hours on social media each day. Whilst this is a great platform for getting inspiration and communicating with loved ones, it’s also having a detrimental affect on our mental health.
Research has shown that social media can impact our self esteem, affect our sleep, change our human interaction and make us unhappy.
So next time you feel like checking Facebook, Instagram or Tinder, pause and take a look out the window, there’s a whole world out there to be discovered.
With the winter season coming to an end, winter jackets will soon be a fashion of the past. During the colder months we often pick up bad habits such as grazing on snacks, or limiting exercise due to the cold weather.
Now it’s time to ditch those habits and start afresh.
I’ll be the first by having a piece of fruit for an afternoon snack. What will you change?
Sometimes we get carried away with the hustle and bustle of life and make little time to reflect and think about our day. Whilst smashing goals is great, it’s also really important to look after your mindset.
So, will you spare 5 minutes of your time to take a breather?
