RISE & SHINE: START YOUR DAY RIGHT WITH THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE!

As we start the New Year, bright and hopeful that this one will be more productive than the last, we are urged to revisit our habits and make ‘resolutions’ for change.

And change can be positive too, especially when you have someone to share it with. Setting achievable goals and staying motivated is vital, and when you have a doting partner to encourage you and join you on your journey, it should be a cinch.

There’s one thing that is often overlooked and undermined, when it comes to measuring the success of your determinations, and that is the quality of your sleep. Did you know that sleep can boost your productivity levels? Inadequate and unrestful sleep, on the other hand, can increase stress and anxiety, while leaving you fatigued. Coping with the demands of the day becomes challenging and slowly we lose sight of our resolutions. In fact, in the case of couples, the resulting irritability can also lead to more squabbles.
