However, did you know that its numerous advantages also include a good night's sleep? The necessity of a decent breakfast in the book 'Tired but Wired,' mentions the need of vital nutrients and, most significantly, a sense of well-being. For a good night's sleep, the book recommends eating eight almonds and two dates within 30 minutes of waking up.
These power packed foods are supposed to help produce the important hormone melatonin that helps you sleep better at night. A handful of nuts, followed by fruits, aids in metabolism and blood sugar stabilisation. Of course, the key to getting the best outcomes is to keep to a schedule and a routine as much as possible.
However, if you're having trouble getting a good night's sleep, our blog is highly recommended, since it contains some useful advice on how to sleep without feeling restless or worried.

BAY OF PLENTY: Michaela Wellauer - Full Cycle Bikes

Their generosity sees local families receiving free bikes through the Whanaū on Wheels programme. Many events exist because of their sponsorship. They are good, kind people who do an awful lot that flies under the radar."
CANTERBURY: Rob Fenwick - Fenwicks Pharmacy
"I nominate Robert Fenwick from our local Fenwicks Pharmacy in Kaiapoi. Always a friendly face and always helpful. Robert and staff had to remain open right through the lockdown, really putting themselves on the line. He's been through earthquakes, power cuts, floods and bereavement and he still opens with friendly conversation and a smile."
HAWKE'S BAY-GISBORNE: Jack Van Chan - Bayon Cafe
"Bayon Cafe and Bakery at 18 Carlyle St, Napier. Lovely family-run business with great coffee and the best, large slices of carrot cake in Napier. They also collect for funds to supply educational reading materials for children in their home country, Cambodia."
MANAWATŪ-WHANGANUI: The Team - Aorangi Bulb Nurseries
"NZ Bulbs (Aorangi Nurseries) run by Paul and Len Hoek had a very positive impact during the Covid lockdowns...During the extended lockdowns, their operation kept many people employed and their direct to consumer flower sales brought a touch of colour and break from the monotony to many people. "
NELSON-MARLBOROUGH: Peter & Caroline Pomeroy - Victoria Gardens
"Caroline and Pete of Victoria Gardens, Motueka, are always helpful and cheerful, selling excellent spray-free fruit that they have grown themselves. They looked after their customers through all the lockdowns, even in the face of having to restore their greenhouses and gardens after the disastrous Boxing Day hailstorm of 2020."
NORTHLAND: Tracey Haika - Or Near Offer Village Boutique
"On the main street of Hikurangi, Or Near Offer Boutique offers all sorts of second-hand goods and clothing. The owner, Tracey, really enhances the community spirit of Hikurangi with her friendly and welcoming manner and her beautifully creative, artistic shop exterior shows a truly entrepreneurial spirit. She's very involved in the community and is an inspiration to many in Hikurangi."
OTAGO-SOUTHLAND: Grant Kennedy - Otautau Tractors & Machinery
"Otautau Tractors & Machinery play a big part in keeping the farming industry going in western Southland by being always on call for repairs. Quite often the doors are still open after closing time. The owner, Grant is a volunteer in the Otautau fire brigade, and he is always sponsoring and donating to local groups, even parking classic cars out front for locals to enjoy."
TARANAKI: Paul Gundy - Waitara Bin Inn
"Waitara Bin Inn go the extra mile for their customers,...On a couple of occasions that I know of, items were dropped off a couple of hours north of the shop to customers. Paul has delivered the compost and potting mix for customers so that they didn't have to lift it. All staff have the right attitude of wanting to help you."
WAIKATO: Roger Nicholson - The Backyard Gastro Pub
"The local pub at Whatawhata make great fish n chips with generous servings. They're lifesavers - always there when the power is out on the Raglan side of the Waipa River. We've just had two full days out of power thanks to 'Cyclone Dovi' and they have come through once again. Local saviours!"
WELLINGTON: Josh Coe - Page 42 Cafe
"Page 42 Cafe are great employers who grow the skills of local youth, with a fantastic culture set by the owner Josh. During the pandemic, they had free coffee for critical workers and "Pay what you can afford" days - people can get a meal for $1, or pay more than the menu price to "pay it forward". Constant community support!"

According to a recent study, people who make their beds are more adventurous, confident, gregarious, and high-maintenance.

Here are three reasons why and how making your bed can contribute towards a character.
1. A sense of achievement
It may appear to be a minor effort, but making your bed first thing in the morning provides you a sense of success. It only takes a few minutes of your time each morning to set a great tone for the rest of the day.
2. Creating Good Habits
When making your bed becomes a habit, you may notice that other positive habits will automatically follow. You now keep your clothing off the floor, and dusting has become a necessary habit that you like. Once you realize how quickly you can do these duties, you may begin to incorporate these habits into other areas of the house, such as the kitchen and living room. Before you realize it, your entire home will seem like a delightful, relaxing getaway.
3. Reduced levels of stress
A decluttered bed contributes to a decluttered environment. A clutter-free environment leads to a clutter-free mentality. A clutter-free mind leads to a clutter-free existence. You get the idea...
So can becoming a bed-maker actually change your life?
Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.
