Sleep is very important for humans.

Sleep has a direct impact on our overall health, waistline, mood, energy level and ability to manage everyday stress. It also influences learning and memory retention, focus and willpower. 

Most people struggle with logging enough sleep because of life's demands.

Any opportunity to make sleep more of a priority helps. Do you have time Sunday morning to sleep in a bit? Can you catch a lazy weekend nap? 

Research things that may improve your quality of sleep and/or commit to a gradually earlier bedtime. 

"According to researchers at Eastern Washington University, people who experience the most gratitude tend to:

1. Feel a sense of abundance in their lives
   
2. Appreciate the contributions of others to their well-being
   
3. Recognize and enjoy life's small pleasures
   
4. Acknowledge the importance of experiencing and expressing gratitude.

Whether or not these attitudes come to you naturally, paying attention to life's positives can train you to see more and more of them, which will help you learn to be more grateful. 


Acknowledging [things you are grateful for] —on paper, with words, or even in your thoughts—will help you cultivate an attitude of gratitude—and with it, a boost in happiness that will last year-round."

We all have our own specific relationship and mental constructs related to money. Do yours leave you feeling secure and in control, or reactive, worrisome and frazzled? If you are like most people, the answer is probably a little of both. 

“Financial health is having a conscious and purposeful relationship with money that is satisfying and isn’t overly stressful,” said Brad Klontz, PsyD, a financial psychologist and director of research at H&R Block Dollars & Sense.

Working with a coach to define your financial values, and planning spending based on that foundation, can help in developing a greater sense of control and peacefulness concerning your fiscal future.
