😴 Australia, We Need to Talk About Sleep! 😴
Are you getting enough shut-eye? A recent report highlights that a surprising number of Aussies aren't, and it's having a big impact on our health and wellbeing. From chronic diseases to mental health issues, lack of sleep is a serious problem.
Our modern 24/7 lifestyle, stress, and screen time are major culprits.
What can we do? Prioritise sleep, create a sleep-friendly environment, and speak to your GP if you're having trouble.
Let's work together to make sleep a priority!
