Building 101: So you want to build a sleep out...

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

When I heard there would be changes to the consent rules around building sleep outs, I was excited. I've always wanted a tea house in my back yard... a garden room where I can do a bit of potting, maybe read a book, or just cool off in the shade.
Turns out it's not quite as simple as a … View more

Turns out it's not quite as simple as a trip to the hardware store to burn a hole in your credit card. If you're thinking of putting something up on your property, check in here first:

Keeping Well Post Lockdown

Health Solutions

As we move into level one and life and socialising returns to normal, plus with winter well on its way it’s vitally important that we build up our immune system.

Being exposed to more people means exposure to more bugs. Along with hygiene practices that help prevent infections, it’s good to do what you can to keep your immune defences in top shape to avoid those winter ills and chills.
How?
• Eating lots of good nutritious food – especially antioxidant rich vegetables and fruits – remember your 5 plus a day.
• Less of the fast junk foods (the ones we missed in level 4!) and more of the fresh home-cooked and nutrient-packed foods (that you enjoyed making in level 4!) and add in those green smoothies and nourishing herbal teas.
• Keep well hydrated. Warming drinks such as lemon ginger and honey are soothing on a winter’s day
• Sunshine – for vitamin D which greatly increases immunity.
• Exercise – regular 20 to 30 minutes a day.
• Sleep – so important for immune maintenance, studies show sleep deprivation drastically alters immune function.
• Good gut health – keeping regular with fibre and maintaining the good bacteria in your gut with probiotics.
Add nutrient and herbal supplements to really pep up your immunity – zinc, vitamin C, vitamin D, garlic, ginger, echinacea, olive leaf, and others. These nutrients and herbs are widely available in a number of immune–enhancing formulas.
There is a lot you can do to improve your immunity and keep well post lockdown. For healthful advice or if you’d like to know more, give me a call today.
