The Power Of Sleep

Sleep is perhaps one of the most underrated aspects of keeping healthy and feeling great. In our fast paced society people are sleeping less and less. People are losing touch of there body’s natural cycles and do not understand that a solid sleeping habit will increase vitality. Our ancestors from 50 thousand years ago slept on average 8-10 hours, going to bed well before midnight and waking at the crack of dawn to start off hunting. More recently in 1910 people slept on average 9 hours per night. Alarmingly in 2005 the average amount of sleep was a mere 7 hours, which can be attributed to the pace of life and items such as television and computers keeping us up later then ever before.

Binge Drinking In The Uk And Employers - A Lawsuit Time-bomb

Binge drinking is news now in the UK. What nobody seems to realize is that sooner or later, it will translate into a lawsuit against a firm that encourages ill health by alcohol.

Many firms give employees a so-called perk of client entertainment, where the employee is encouraged to drink alcohol.

Many firms encourage a Friday night get-together in the pub. Many others have a monthly get-together where much alcohol is consumed.

Perhaps you work in such a firm yourself.
