According to studies, taking a warm shower every night will help you fall asleep faster.
Showering often re-regulates our bodies' flowing motion and aids in the stabilization of our body temperature. It allows us to cool down and relax after a long and exhausting day. Showering or bathing before bedtime has several important sleep-promoting benefits:

Showers help you relax both physically and emotionally. A warm bath or shower always makes you feel better. It's easier to sleep when you're less anxious.

Showers are cleansing. When you go into bed clean, you will not only feel less stressed, but you will also avoid carrying any dirt, oils, or allergies into the bed with you. This is beneficial to both your skin and your mattress.

Showers require you to unplug. You can't watch TV or check Facebook on your phone while showering (unless you want to harm your technology). Even if just for a few minutes, your mind needs to disconnect. Including a shower in your evening regimen helps you move from your active daytime mode to relaxation and sleep mode.

New accessible bathroom in Takapuna gives 'freedom' for those with disabilities

Kia ora neighbours. The opening of a fully accessible bathroom in Takapuna will create inclusion for those who typically feel left out, the mother of a disabled teen says.

The bathroom and changing room opened at Gould Reserve, near Takapuna Beach Reserve and playground, on Monday.

Features of the facility include a height-adjustable adult changing table and sink, a ceiling track hoist, a shower, handrails and a toilet with space on both sides for two carers to assist its user.

Devonport resident Kimberly Graham​, whose 17-year-old son Finlay Butcher​ has athetoid cerebral palsy, previously said a lack of fully accessible bathrooms in New Zealand made it hard for her family to get out and enjoy activities together.

The new bathroom in Takapuna meant the family could catch a bus or ride their bikes to the beach and playground and spend more time there, without worrying about what they would do when Finlay needed to use the toilet, she said.

“The freedom a toilet like this gives is immense," she said.
