I learnt something as I unpacked my bags recently.
I'd just returned from a 3-day trip to regional towns around New Zealand.
I pulled out some items I needed immediately and then caught myself thinking, 'I'll finish unpacking later.'
'No you won't.
You'll do it now!'
said the little voice on my shoulder.
With a brief flutter of resistance my procrastinating self crept back into her hole.
Within five minutes the job was done, the room was tidy, and I knew I could come back into the room later without that awful sinking feeling of 'Darn it, I've still got to put all this stuff away!'
I noticed something else.
It's easier to shift a moving object than a stationary one, it generates higher energy, and it's less time-consuming.
It's when we have to go back to something that we end up in a muddle, it slows us down, procrastination becomes a familiar...

Time for Sleep..A Guide for First Time Parents

Good bedtime habits will allow your child the comfort that he or she needs to fall asleep in their own room by themselves.
Good bedtime habits for your child are the gift that keeps giving because it pays off with better sleep and more comfort for you as parents.First time parents always have anxieties about putting their child to bed in their own bedroom for the first time.

Her weight has been a problem as well, spiraling upwards of 60 lbs within the past 20 years. Like most of us, her exercise and diet plans begin with enthusiasm but fizzle out within the first month. "Just too tired to keep them going" is her excuse.
It wasn't until her doctor referred her to the Sleep Specialist that things began to change. Within 6 months, she lost 25 lbs. She began exercising and now she feels much more optimistic about her future. "I'll get down to where I want to be," she said. "But the great thing is I can sleep like a baby at night."
Gail's situation points to a distinct connection between sleep and weight.
Recently, sleep deprivation has been identified as one of the major problems of our internet culture. Not coincidentally, obesity (despite the many...
