Go to Sleep and Stay Asleep
With shorter days and longer nights, many of us find ourselves battling the winter blues. Shorter daylight hours can disrupt our sleep patterns, leaving us feeling tired, sluggish, and even more susceptible to seasonal depression. At Wholeness Center, promoting healthy sleep habits is a cornerstone of good mental health, especially during the winter months.
Understanding the Impact of Winter on Sleep
Our bodies rely on a natural internal clock called the circadian rhythm. This 24-hour cycle regulates various bodily functions, including sleep-wake cycles. During the winter, with less natural sunlight, our circadian rhythm can become dysregulated. Which may cause difficulty falling asleep, waking up feeling unrested, and experiencing daytime fatigue.
It’s spring cleaning time again. While we commonly think about cleaning our closets, cupboards and homes, it’s also a great time to spring clean our minds – clearing out the clutter and negativity. Give your minds a fresh start for the season! Here are a few ideas to get you started:
Spring has sprung and allergies are kicking into full swing! Many people suffer this time of year with symptoms including sneezing, coughing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. While taking an over-the-counter pill can usually help to manage symptoms, there are other more natural home remedies that can also help. 
Summer is a great time to show-off your healthy skin, hair and nails! The condition of your skin, hair and nails is a reflection of your overall state of health. A variety of factors can affect their condition, including your exposure to tobacco smoke, sun damage, medications, drug use, and nutritional status.
