Could You Make A Four-Day Work Week Work?

Do You Think A Four-Day Work Would Actually Work?Seven in 10 workers feel they could be just as productive in a four-day work week, according to new research. Things That Make Insomnia WorseStaying in bed longer - Experts advise a sleep routine of getting up at the same time every morning and only getting into bed when you’re truly tired.Cutting out screens completely - Lying in bed without something to focus on can lead to overthinking, which is terrible for sleep. That’s when having something to distract your thoughts can be helpful, but stick with something calm, like a nature documentary or soothing podcast.Swearing off caffeine forever - Caffeine blocks adenosine, which makes you sleepy, so if an afternoon cup of tea keeps you awake at night, skip it. Trying too hard to sleep “right” - Trackers, gadgets and products to enhance sleep make it easy to obsess over snoozing, but that can backfire and give you anxiety. Your body knows how to rest and micromanaging it can add pressure, instead of helping.Expecting consistency - Thanks to things like age, stress, hormones and even the weather, some nights sleep will be easier than others, and that’s normal. You won’t get a solid eight hours every night, so don’t expect it or beat yourself up if the popular advice isn’t helping you.⠀House Noises You Shouldn't IgnoreRushing water noises - Do a quick check for pooling water in areas that are prone to leaking, like your sink or bathroom, and checking the water meter is also a good idea. Buzzing from lights - If you hear any sounds coming from your outlets or switches, call a licensed electrician.Whistling or hissing noises near gas-based appliances - This could be a “really serious indicator of a potential danger in your home that could lead to a house fire,” Dripping faucet sounds - It’s less of an immediate emergency, but it can cost you more the longer you ignore it.Gurgling toilets - If it gurgles after you flush, that would be indication that you either have a backup and the water can pass but it’s struggling. Second Date UpdateAmanda called us about Gabe.
