While some individuals have no trouble going asleep at night, others find it difficult. Those who suffer from chronic insomnia or who have difficulty falling asleep sometimes may benefit from the following exercise.

Yoga Nidra
Most people already know that yoga and meditation promote serenity and awareness, but many are unaware that they can also encourage a healthy sleep pattern. Yoga nidra, also known as yogic sleep, is a type of guided meditation that is done while laying still in savasana or similar comfortable reclined position.

Revamp Your Bed
Research proves sleeping on a mattress that is too soft or too firm can lead to muscular discomfort, causing wakefulness during the night. Using an old pillow or one that is the wrong firmness or shape for your preferred sleep position can have a similar effect. If you find that you cannot get comfortable in your bed or wake up often throughout the night, replacing your pillow or mattress could help.

Clean Your Bedroom
Because there is a link between a crowded bedroom and a cluttered mind, it stands to reason that sleeping in a tidy bedroom can enhance sleep and minimize racing thoughts. Organizing and tidying your room can help you relax at the end of the day to snuggle into a beautifully made bed.

Kia ora, I have an outside gas heater for sale. We used it for my partner's last big birthday and never since. We're getting too old for big parties, hence the sale.

It runs on a 9kg gas bottle and from memory, put out really good heat. The party we used it for was in September, very cold and raining, miserable weather in fact. We were impressed.

Price: $120. Colour: gunmetal. Has 2 wheels to move it. Takes 9kg gas bottle (the common BBQ size). Condition: Used, good. # owners: 1, bought new. How stored: in garage, under cover. Sale terms: As is, where is. Payment methods: cash or direct credit to bank account. No: credit card, EFTPOS, instalments, layby, barter, buy now pay later, etc. No tyre kickers. Note, this sale DOES NOT INCLUDE GAS BOTTLE.

I can't remember what we paid for it new, but similar online today from Gasmate www.gasmate.co.nz..., called "area heater" is RRP $389.

I will deliver local only, or I will deliver into town at my convenience which means 1 trip/week only, to your work or to the Cobham Oval carpark.

Price: $120
