Our national women’s rugby team took out the Rugby World Cup on Saturday in a tense finale at Eden Park. The Black Ferns won the match by just three points taking home their sixth world title.

With public celebrations taking place following the All Blacks (men's) Rugby World Cup wins (2011 & 2015) as well as parades for the America's cup team, do you think similar celebration plans are needed for our winning Black Ferns women?

Should there be a parade for the Black Ferns?

Sleep is one of the most important aspects of human health. Without quality sleep, our bodies are not able to heal and rejuvenate themselves, and our brains struggle to process emotions and store memories.
One of the biggest factors in getting a good night’s sleep is the comfort of your mattress. If you regularly wake up with muscle or joint stiffness, interrupted sleep, or your mattress is making more noise than usual then it's time to replace and refresh.

Experts recommend a change of mattress every 8-10 years, so if you haven't changed your mattress within those years then now is a good time to do so.

Investing in your dream sleep can pay a huge factor for your health, and once you’ve found the right mattress the thought of replacing it will be the last thing on your mind.
A mattress is a long-term hold, not a life-long hold.
