Tomorrow is National Beach Day, with the aim being to raise awareness about the importance of protecting and preserving these natural resources that do so much for our mental wellbeing and wildlife. Beaches face many threats, including pollution, erosion, and climate change, making conservation efforts more crucial than ever. Popular activities you could get involved in include organising beach clean-ups, hosting educational workshops about marine life and ecosystems, and participating in water sports and beach games.

Let's take a look at some sleep stats: Recent research has found 46% of people with below-average sleep quality rated their mental health as poor or very poor and were three times as likely to rate it as such over those with average or above-average mental health. People who said their mental health was poor or very poor (25%) slept nearly an hour less (6.3 hours vs. 7.2 hours) than those with above-average mental health (41%). This is a stark reminder to us that sleep and mood walk hand in hand. In fact, research suggests that when both a mood disorder and sleep problem are present, effort should be made to improve sleep, as it benefits both.

Did you know we spend approximately a third of our lives asleep? 💤 Sleep is an essential and involuntary process, without which we cannot function effectively. It is as essential to our bodies as eating, drinking and breathing, and is vital for maintaining good mental and physical health. Sleeping helps to repair and restore our brains, not just our bodies. In our latest blog we explore just how much sleep impacts our wellbeing. Click here to read: https://heyor.ca/IiAtv1 #SleepHealth #Wellbeing #MentalHealth #PhysicalHealth #SleepAwareness

Understanding finances and effectively managing money are crucial aspects that impact everyone's life and wellbeing. Financial literacy influences the prosperity of individuals and their families, as well as the overall health of society and the country as a whole. Economic data shows that the wealthiest and most prosperous countries, mainly in the West, have higher rates of financial literacy compared to poorer or developing regions. Yet, on a global average, only one in three people are financially literate, and about half of the European population lacks basic knowledge regarding finances and its components.

Play is not just essential for kids; it can be an important source of relaxation and stimulation for adults as well. For instance, did you know playing helps stimulate the mind and boosts creativity? You’ll learn a new task better when it’s fun and you’re in a relaxed and playful mood. Play can also stimulate your imagination, helping you adapt and solve problems! Play is fun and can trigger the release of endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.
