Holiday season can throw your family’s sleep routines off course. All the excitement can heighten your kids’ energy and that big to do list can leave you feeling drained and exhausted. Try to maintain a normal sleep pattern for all in the family and you may beat the holiday blues - you know those horrible blues you get when you return to the new year. To all of South Africa, we wish you a Happy Holiday Season and a fabulous New Year.

Sleep is a vital indicator of overall health and well-being. We spend up to one-third of our lives asleep, and the overall state of our "sleep health" remains an essential question throughout our lifespan.

It comes as no surprise that so many poets have explored sleep in their work. A lullaby by Thomas Dekker

" And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
Care is heavy, therefore sleep you,
You are care, and care must keep you ;
Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby. "

Easter Holidays

It’s that time of year again where we all pack our bags, take a break and go on holiday. Driving to your destination can be taxing even if you are only in the car for three hours, so make sure you are well rested the evening before.

Even the best driver is not aware of the pull of sleep and rolling down the window and turning the radio volume higher will certainly not help. Driving is actually a complex task with decisions being made every second. Keeping you, your passengers and others on the road safe, should be a top priority when travelling even for a short distance.

A few tips to keep you safe on the road:

• Avoid driving between midnight and 6am ( sleepiness is at its most intense)
• Don’t drink alcohol – we think no explanation is needed here
• Enjoy the drive – rushing makes for bad judgement
• Have a nap before you drive, this clams the mind and allows it to focus on the upcoming drive
• Take a break every 2 hours (at least 15 minutes) – if you have another licenced driver in the car, let them take over whilst you rest.
• Caffeine can help with sleepiness but remember that the effects will hit you later.
• Keep some healthy snacks with you and munch on those when you need some energy
• If you driving on the toll roads, try making sure that all toll money is ready so you don’t get distracted looking for it whilst approaching the toll.
• Turn your phone off – it is there for your convenience

We wish you a safe journey on your travels and happy holidays this Easter Season.
