24.01.2022 Degrees are looking good up on the wall Thanks #framesandmirrorsonsmith the green matt looks

21.01.2022 What an amazing and eye opening evening at the @women_in_gippsland international womens day event last night! I cant lie, when I first arrived I felt a little like an awkward turtle because I was surrounded by so many courageous women however listening to the talks helped add a level of conscious awareness to some of social childhood conditioning I may have been witness to. Looking forward to modeling the type of change I want to see for our future generations. Thanks @women_in_gippsland for the amazing night #iwd2020 #womeningippsland #warragul #warragulnaturalhealth

19.01.2022 Sleep tips #1 Light One of the ways our bodys regulate sleep is via a part of the brain known as the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). This area of the brain is located behind the eyes , it takes information from the receptors in our eyes about how much and what wavelength of light is in our environment. In the evening natural light levels start to lower and the wavelength of light is a red/orange/yellow spectrum.... Our brain interprets this and releases chemicals that begin prepping our body for sleep. In contrast during the day natural light levels are generally high and the wavelength of light is a more blue/green/purple spectrum. Tip 1 Avoid watching tv , using handheld devices and laptops near bed time. These devices emit high levels of blue wavelength light which basically simulates daytime for your brain. Tip 2 Use a free app such a f.lux to limit the amount of blue wavelength light your device emits. You can set your own personal times and f.lux will slowly shift from blue light to a more yellow tone in the background as afternoon shifts into evening (most of the time I dont even notice it happening) Tip 3 Swap out higher wavelength bulbs for lower wavelength bulbsin bedrooms. For example a cool white bulb will usually be around 5000k (closer to daylight ) and a warm white bulb will be around 3000k (closer to sunset ). Personally I have found using a salt lamp has been a great option as it only emits low amounts of light of an orange wavelength. Tip 4 Make sure to avoid having electronics in your bedroom that has any L.E.D lights and if unavoidable simply cover the light with some tape to block out unwanted light. These lights can play havoc with your sleep / wake cycles

15.01.2022 Getting my daily dose of nature and family time with @drlucychiro and the Tripper It blows me away how much of a difference moving for enjoyment impacts me vs moving for work. I will easily do 15,000 steps a day at work and generally by the weekend I feel exhausted, the last thing you would think I want to do is go for a walk but context is everything. #drouin #goodhabits #dogsofgippsland #gippsland #visitgippsland #visitbawbaw #bawbawshire #warragul

15.01.2022 Sleep tips #2 Oxygen One of the leading sleep disorders in Australia and worldwide is sleep apnea. Apnea just means a temporary stop in breathing and so sleep apnea is when you temporarily stop breathing whilst you are asleep. Most cases of sleep apnea are classed as mild however statistics suggest that even mild sleep apnea can cause a 2.5% increase in mortality rate so if like me you are planning to live to you want to be getting on top of any possible sle...ep apnea ASAP! Sleep apnea contributes to various other health problems such as: Obesity due to poor motivation, tiredness and depression Cardiovascular disease largely due to impacts onblood pressure Diabetes and insulin resistance Insomnia as sleep apnea often wakes people from their sleep Cognitive function which has been linked to higher incidence of motor vehicle accidents Penile erectile dysfunction Tip 1 Weight loss has been continually shown to have the biggest impact on sleep apnea. If you are in a position to make changes and lose weight thats amazing however when I read this in the literature all I thought of was Fat Bastard from Austin Powers saying I eat because Im unhappy and Im unhappy because I eat. Most people with sleep apnea dont have the extra energy required to make healthy lifestyle changes, so if you are reading this and a certain friend or family member comes to mind why not think of ways you can help I.e. cook a healthy meal , get them into a routine of regular walks, etc. Tip 2 Reduce the amount of alcohol you drink before bed . Alcohol has been shown to negatively impact sleep in various sleep related disorders. So although we always thought alcohol helps you get to sleep it definitely doesnt do you any good once you are asleep. Tip 3 Clear your airways. Personally I find when I have a blocked nose using the buteyko breathing technique (you should google it) helps me clear my nostrils, which helps me breathe through my nose rather than my mouth while I sleep. Breathing through the nose has been shown to be more beneficial for regulating oxygen levels while you sleep

14.01.2022 Fresh morning walks to warm the body and invigorate the mind with @drlucychiro and Trippy #warragul #rokeby #dogsofinstagram #dogsofgippsland @ Rokeby rail Trail

13.01.2022 If you're stuck in quarantine with a toxic or abusive partner, message me about MY MAKE UP RANGE (I don't have one) and I will know to continually check in on you. If you ask me about PLACING AN ORDER AND INCLUDE YOUR ADDRESS, I will know to contact the police. There has been a 40% increase in domestic violence cases since this quarantine. Please don't be afraid to reach out.... If you're willing, put something similar on your wall. Strength in numbers.

05.01.2022 1. When this quote is the last 2 sentences in the introduction of your book #thenocturnalbrain you know you are about to read some interesting stories. When sleep accounts for around 1/3rd of our day, or at least it should, it makes you wonder what impact good/bad sleep has on the other 2/3rds of your day #bonemechanicsleepseries
