Wake up with energy

Here are 5 ways to get better sleep & wake up with energy. (These work for me Amazingly)

  1. Get rid of all phones, computers and other digital devices 45 minutes before bed. When you look at a digital screen your eyes associate this with ‘‘day time’ which naturally wakes your brain and body up. I have found with myself and most of my clients, reading, foam rolling & stretching, meditating, visualising or something else relaxing will allow you to have a better sleep, get to sleep faster & therefore wake up feeling refreshed.
  2. Wake up at the same time every single day. This has been the biggest game changer when it comes to energy levels. Your body is a clock and you can train your body to wake up at whatever time you want naturally. Wake up Mon-Sun the same time daily and you will wake up with so much more energy!!
  3. Eat enough food but not too much food. If you try to eat at least 90 minutes before bed, it will give time for your body time to digest your food. When eating, listen to your body and when you are full and satisfied then make the decision to stop. It’s when you don’t eat enough you may not be able to get to sleep or if you eat too much your body has to work harder to digest the food while you sleep.
  4. Make sure the temperature of the room is comfortable. When your body is too hot or too cold we may find it hard to sleep. If it's too hot we wake up sweating and having weird dreams or if it's cold we shake ourselves to sleep and it's uncomfortable. Try to make sure your body (having hot showers before bed can make it hard for your body to cool down) and the room temperature is comfortable for you. 
  5. Relieve Stress-One of the most common factors when It comes to not having a good sleep is overthinking, stress & anxiety. I know I used to always grind my teeth when I was asleep and didn't even know I was doing it due to subconscious anxiety. In the same way, you might be having terrible sleep at the moment due to subconscious stress build up. I would suggest before you end your work day, do a brain dump. Dump down on a piece of paper everything that you are stressed about, have to do tomorrow or anything that comes to mind. Get it out of your subconscious mind or it will dwell in your mind all night causing you to have a restless sleep.

decouple carbon emissions from economic growth.

  It's refreshing to see wealthy countries finally learn how to   decouple carbon emissions from economic growth . This is especially significant for nations like Australia and New Zealand that historically have relied on coal. As it turns out, carbon emissions and GDP growth can be mutually exclusive. (Who knew!) The problem, of course, is that all of this is still ~30 years overdue. The climate will continue to warm, and that warming will continue to affect us. How does climate change affect the wine industry? Europe is wine's most important continent. Most of the world's wines come from Europe, and just 3 countries account for over half of all wine production: France, Italy and Spain. Global warming will eventually require pretty much every industry in the world to change the way they produce goods. But this is especially true for industries that  rely on the climate to survive , like wine. It's is one of the biggest topics in the industry today. From changing viticu

10 Steps to Financial Health in the New Year

  10 Steps to Financial Health in the New Year 1)   Take stock You can't make meaningful financial changes in the New Year unless you know where you are right now. A good place to start is with a snapshot of your overall wealth, otherwise known as your net worth. Add up your assets (what you own); then subtract your liabilities (what you owe). This will show you whether you're in the plus or the minus, help you plan and prioritize your spending, saving and investing, and provide a benchmark against which you can measure your progress over the years. This is also a good time to review your credit report to make sure your accounts and liabilities are listed accurately. Finally, look at your cash flow over the past year. What came in each month? What went out? If you regularly spent more than you earned, decide what changes you'll make to turn things around. 2)   Set goals and prioritize What’s at the top of your list of goals this year? Whether you want to save more, pay off
