The Best Winter Houseplants

10 plants to grow indoors in winter

Anthurium

The plant prefers medium sunlight and moist, well-drained soil. The waxy ‘flowers’ are in fact spathes, bright leaves to attract insects in the plant’s natural habitat. There are common varieties with white, pink, or red flowers, but many other shades too. The blooms can last up to three months and appear up to six times per year.

Succulents

Since they can be found on every continent, except Antarctica of course, succulents have been adapting to all sorts of environmental settings, ranging from dry climates or heavy

Make sure you know how to care and when to water your succulents. You will be able to enjoy these beauties all year round!

Aloe Vera

Chinese Evergreen

Part of the Arum family. The remarkable thing about this plant is its ability to absorb benzine, formaldehyde and carbon monoxide from the air. Watering every second week in winter and once a week in summer is ideal for this plant. Low light is very well tolerated. Darker rooms which don’t get much sunlight really are perfect for this guy.

Dracaena

Dracaena Marginata or Madagascar Dragon tree has thin upright leaves with pink edging on a green center. Dracaena like to dry out a tad; water when the soil is dry to the touch. At this point the soil needs to be thoroughly watered until it can be seen from the drainage holes. In strong light, watering will need to be more frequent. In lower light, water less often.

The gel that grows inside this littles guys leaves is used for everything, from skincare products to cleaning items, health drinks to supplements. These slow growing, stemless succulents have thick, fleshy, grey-green leaves with serrated edges.

Jade Plant

It’s happy to tolerate warm and colder conditions and can withstand low-light conditions easily enough. As long as you keep up with a monthly watering routine and give it a little bit of sunlight, it’ll last through to spring and summer.

Peace Lily

Their creamy-white flowers appear in spring and sporadically throughout the year, given enough light. It should be noted that this plant contains calcium oxalate and is toxic to pets, so it should be kept out of reach of the masters of the house! Brown leaves is an indicative of too dry soil, although Peace Lilies can go happily with barely moist soil, and will not tolerate too wet soil at all.

Orchids

Orchids are classic and seasonal choices to bring your indoor winterscape to life. They are also among the best bathroom plants and you can quickly get to grips with orchid care.

Tradescantia

Tradescantia is a species of spiderwort native to South America, also known as the wandering Dude, because it grows rapidly and will urban wild any space. This classic retro winter houseplants looks beautiful and is among the best plants for hanging baskets or for containers, and is stunning and easy-care for.

Snowdrops

If you are planning a winter garden, it’s likely you’re thinking of snowdrops. And guess what? They can be grown indoors too. They bring a welcome foretaste of spring and are guaranteed to lift the spirits on dreary winter days.

Wake up call: How too little sleep undermines your health and productivity

Not getting the right amount of shut-eye increases our risk of developing a host of physical and mental health disorders, not to mention the impact it has on our daily life and productivity.

Abdurahmaan Kenny, Neuroscience Product Manager for Pharma Dynamics says sleep deprivation is a growing problem.

“Insufficient sleep has been linked to 7 of the 15 leading causes of death in the US, including cardiovascular disease, cerebrovascular disease, accidents, diabetes, and hypertension. Those that sleep less than 6 hours a night also tend to struggle with weight issues, having a body-mass index (BMI) of 12% greater than those who sleep between 7 and 9 hours.”

He points out that over time chronic sleep deprivation may also lead to insomnia. When an individual consistently experiences insufficient sleep over a prolonged period, it can disrupt the body’s natural sleep-wake cycle and the regulation of sleep hormones such as melatonin. This disruption can result in difficulties falling asleep, staying asleep or getting restorative sleep, which are characteristics of insomnia.

“Long-term sleep deprivation can affect various bodily functions, impacting cognitive abilities, mood and overall health. It can lead to increased stress, irritability, difficulty concentrating, memory issues, depression and anxiety, as well as a weakened immune system. Over time, these effects can contribute to the development or exacerbation of insomnia.”

Other critical factors that contribute to insomnia, include stressors like grief, chronic pain, substance abuse, medical comorbidities, impaired social relationships, lower socioeconomic status, old age and being female. Insomnia is more common in women because of hormonal fluctuations, a predisposition to depression, anxiety, and stress, as well as circadian rhythm disorders, and coexisting medical problems.

Insomnia affects an estimated 1 in 4 adults at some point in their lives with 10-15% experiencing chronic insomnia and a further 25-35% reporting occasional insomnia. Yet, despite the high incidence, insomnia is still largely underdiagnosed

and undertreated. Common factors that hinder the diagnosis of insomnia and the management thereof is the along with time-constrained doctor’s consultations, which often do not allow for enough questions about a patient’s overall well-being.

Kenny says addressing sleep deprivation early and adopting healthy sleep practices are crucial in preventing the development of chronic insomnia.

If you think you have insomnia, treating it typically involves a combination of lifestyle changes, behavioural strategies, and, in some cases, medical intervention.

Kenny suggests the following approaches to manage and treat the condition:

• Establish a consistent sleep schedule: Maintain a regular sleep routine by going to bed and waking up at the same time every day, even on weekends. This helps regulate your body’s internal clock.

• Create a relaxing bedtime routine: Develop pre-sleep rituals that signal to your body that it’s time to wind down. This might include drinking a cup of soothing herbal tea, like Rooibos, reading a book, taking a warm bath, practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation or listening to calming music.

• Optimise your sleep environment: Ensure your bedroom is conducive to sleep. Keep the room cool, dark, and quiet. Invest in a comfortable mattress and pillows. Minimise electronic devices and screen time before bedtime as the blue light can disrupt your sleep.

• Limit stimulants and alcohol: Reduce or eliminate caffeine and nicotine, especially in the hours leading up to bedtime. While alcohol might make you feel drowsy initially, it can disrupt your sleep later in the night.

• Regular exercise: Engage in regular physical activity, but try to avoid vigorous exercise close to bedtime as it can be stimulating. Exercise during the day can promote better sleep.

• Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT-I) CBT-I is a structured program me that targets behaviours and thoughts affecting sleep. It helps identify and replace negative thoughts and behaviours with positive ones to improve sleep.

• Mindfulness and relaxation techniques: Practices like mindfulness meditation, progressive muscle relaxation or guided imagery can calm the mind and body, making it easier to fall asleep.

• Limit daytime naps: If you must nap during the day, keep it short (20-30 minutes) and avoid late afternoon naps, as they can interfere with nighttime sleep.

• Seek professional help: In some cases, a doctor might prescribe short-term medication, such as a sedative-hypnotic. Hypnotics with a modified release (MR) formulation allows the active ingredient to be released at two different rates or time periods and works by slowing activity in the brain to help patients fall asleep and stay asleep. However, these medications should be used under medical supervision.

He says it’s important to remember that what works for one person might not work for another when it comes to treating a sleeping disorder like insomnia.

“Consistency and patience are crucial, as changes in sleep habits and improvements may take time. Consulting with a GP or sleep specialist can provide personalised guidance and treatment options suited to your specific needs.”

A Comprehensive Guide

for creating engaging short-form videos

For businesses ready to dive into the world of short-form videos, here’s a guide to creating content that resonates with potential customers:

1. First and most important, shoot in vertical format:

Maximise mobile engagementby adopting a vertical video format, ensuring your content is as immersive as possible for smartphone users.

2. Start Strong:

Capture your audience’s attention within the first 5 seconds with a compelling hook that encourages further viewing. A great approach is to position yourself outside your business, allowing potential clients to see its location, then walk through the front door. Have a staff member stand at the entrance, waving and welcoming viewers in as you film.

3. Showcase your product range:

Instead of filming all the products on display, rather send us high quality product images that can rotate in the video. This trend addresses the demand for quick information and aids in driving purchasing decisions.

Generate excitement and curiosity among your audience by showcasing sneak peeks of upcoming products through intriguing visuals and teasers. These short videos create a sense of anticipation, leaving viewers eager to learn more about what your brand has in store.

4. Behind the Scenes:

Share insights into your company’s inner workings, company culture, work processes from product creation to team dynamics, to humanise your brand and foster transparency.

5. Showcase Value:

Don’t just list benefits—demonstrate the tangible value your product or service brings to customers’ lives.

6. Quality Matters:

Despite their brief nature, prioritise high video and audio quality to enhance professionalism and build trust with your viewers.

7. Educate Your Audience:

Offer quick tutorials or how-to guides that not only inform, but also entertain, establishing your brand as a go-to resource.

8. Repurpose Content:

Efficiently extend your video content’s reach by repurposing existing material into new short-form pieces or ads.

9. Emphasise Authenticity:

Focus on creating content that highlights the uniqueness of your business and connects with your audience on a personal level.

10. Music and Sound Integration:

Enhance your videos with trending sounds or music to create a more engaging and memorable viewing experience. Keep in mind that royalty free music isn’t free to download so please make sure you read the license on each site for proper usage.

There’s nothing that beats watching a blockbuster movie in the cinema!

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

This latest entry in the Monsterverse franchise follows up on the explosive showdown of Godzilla vs. Kong with an all-new cinematic adventure, pitting the almighty Kong and the fearsome Godzilla against a colossal undiscovered threat hidden within our world that challenges their very existence – and our own.

The epic new film delves further into the histories of these Titans, their origins, and the mysteries of Skull Island and beyond, while uncovering the mythic battle that helped forge these extraordinary beings and tied them to humankind forever.

The film’s director, Adam Wingard, chose to shoot Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire with IMAX-certified digital cameras and it features over 45-minutes of IMAX exclusive Expanded Aspect Ratio (EAR) throughout the film. Moviegoers will find themselves totally immersed in the enlarged 1.901 aspect ratio, visually expanding to fill the IMAX screen with up to 26% more picture under the specific design of the director, and drawing fans right into the heart of the action: IMAX takes the audience beyond the edge of their seats and into a world they’ve never imagined.

The EAR provides audiences with an even greater canvas of spectacular images captured specifically for the IMAX large screen format which, combined with next generation IMAX precision sound, creates a truly immersive cinema experience.

Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga

Snatched from the Green Place of Many Mothers, young Furiosa falls into the hands of a great biker horde led by the warlord Dementus. Sweeping through the Wasteland, they come across the Citadel, presided over by the Immortan Joe. As the two tyrants fight for dominance, Furiosa soon finds herself in a nonstop battle to make her way home. The film stars Chris Hemsworth, Anya Taylor-Joy and Charlee Fraser, and is directed by George Miller.

Ghostbusters

Frozen Empire has to call on Ghostbusters new and old to join forces to protect their home and save the world from a second ice age, when the discovery of an ancient artifact unleashes an evil force.

Civil War

In an all-star cast of actors including Kirsten Dunst, Wagner Moura, and Cailee Spaeny, they are on a different mission altogether. In Civil War, the heroes, a team of military-embedded journalists, find themselves in a dystopian future America, and racing against time on an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride to reach Washington, D.C., before rebel factions descend upon the White House.

The Fall Guy

Ryan Gosling takes on the adrenalin-pumping role of The Fall Guy. Colt Seavers is a stuntman who left the business a year earlier to focus on both his physical and mental health. He’s drafted back into service when the star of a mega-budget studio movie, which is being directed by his ex, goes missing. This action-packed comedy drama also stars Emily Blunt as Colt’s ex-girlfriend, Jody Moreno, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Hannah Waddingham.

Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes

Director Wes Ball breathes new life into the global, epic franchise set several generations into the future following Caesar’s reign, in which apes are the dominant species living harmoniously together, while humans have been reduced to living in the shadows. As a new tyrannical ape leader builds his empire, one young ape undertakes a harrowing journey that will lead him to question all that he has known about the past, and to make choices that will define a future for both apes and humans alike.
