Here are some tips and suggestions involving light exercises to help you achieve a better night's sleep.
Walking
A good walk outside might be the solution to your sleep deprivation. Walking at any pace is a nice method to unwind after a long day. The combined advantages of exercise and exposure to nature enhance restfulness.
Flexibility training
Aches and pain may cause problems on a good night's sleep. If your body hurts and you can't sleep, consider including yoga exercises into your night regimen. Stretching at night can mobilise any stiff joints and relax any stiff muscles. Using a latex mattress might also be beneficial depending on one's comfort.
Strength training
Some believe that undertaking intensive activities at night, such as weightlifting, affects sleep, yet studies show otherwise. Keep in mind that you don't have to go overboard during a nighttime strength training workout. If you're worried about having difficulties sleeping, do a shorter or less intensive strength training exercise before bed.
Kindly let us know by commenting if you found these suggestions beneficial in your everyday routines.

"Denis Bourke Paintings" covers areas of interest that have been at work concurrently over several decades in Denis Bourke’s long-standing practice. Bourke has travelled widely across Aotearoa New Zealand, and is a longtime illustrator and recorder of land features.
Bobbie Gray's "Insignificant Other" brings everyday life into art through magnifying borer ‘galleries’ found in the native timber floors of the artist’s home. The works read as abstract paintings, yet the mark making delves beneath the surface, revealing physical depth. The lines left are evidence of life lived, in parallel with our own.

This is one of our most popular projects as the students must design a three-course menu, cost it in a spreadsheet to meet a specific budget, create a menu card and timeplan to help them execute the tasks. They must serve the menu to a guest who arrives at 12.30. Everything is done on the day. The students also get to sit with their guest to savour and enjoy their creations.
Along with our cookery students, the Food & Beverage, Level 4 students showcased excellent wine and food service to the guests.
Some of the dishes prepared were -
- Pan seared fish with salsa and mesclun salad
- Fettuccine Al Burro with handmade pasta
- Semolina cake soaked in orange blossom syrup, rosewater sorbet, pistachio crumb & candied orange peel

Although the number of in-person services and ceremonies across the region is reduced as a result of the red-light setting during planning, there are still many ways to commemorate at home or in the community.
The dawn service at the Auckland War Memorial Museum is limited to veterans and invited guests only. The public are encouraged to view the service at home on Māori Television.
Visit ourauckland.nz/anzacday for ways to commemorate Anzac Day.
Serving up to 300 meals at each of 8 locations across Auckland every week, LIFE Community Kitchens does more than provide free hot nutritious meals, it brings hope to families in need.
Donate now to ensure that the most vulnerable in our communities don’t go hungry.
