How to start the day to sleep better
A healthy breakfast is recommended by all doctors and is a natural way of life for everyone. However, did you know that its numerous advantages also include a good night's sleep? The necessity of a decent breakfast in the book 'Tired but Wired,' mentions the need of vital nutrients and, most significantly, a sense of well-being. For a good night's sleep, the book recommends eating eight almonds and two dates within 30 minutes of waking up.
These power packed foods are supposed to help produce the important hormone melatonin that helps you sleep better at night. A handful of nuts, followed by fruits, aids in metabolism and blood sugar stabilisation. Of course, the key to getting the best outcomes is to keep to a schedule and a routine as much as possible.
However, if you're having trouble getting a good night's sleep, our blog is highly recommended, since it contains some useful advice on how to sleep without feeling restless or worried.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
