Notice some changes around here?

Kia ora New Zealand. Our April issue is all about supporting sleep and overwhelm. For some of us in the North Island who have faced unprecedented weather events, it's been an extremely tense time. From preparation to recovery and clean-up, words cannot really describe the challenges we are facing.

I know Kiwis rally together in times of need, and we're thankful for all the community and emergency services, as well as roading contractors, who worked tirelessly to clear debris and make things safe in all affected areas. Also, to all the unsung heroes who checked on neighbors, shared resources, or even kept community spirits up.

The good news is that there are many natural products that can offer support in times of extreme stress or restless nights.

I'm a fan of using aromatherapy to relax, and I have a diffuser going on my desk during the day. At night, I'll sprinkle my favorite essential oil blend on my pillow.

Dolphin Clinic has some amazing new passive diffusers that don't need heat or electricity to work. I also have my eye on The Herb Farm Mood Mists - see both on page 4. With low sunshine hours during the autumn season, you can top up on vitamin D3 with GO Healthy (see page 9), which also has you covered with zinc and vitamin C. Pop into your local Health 2000 store (see page 15) for friendly advice and remember to take the time to carve out a moment of calm for yourself when it's all a bit too much.
