disorders.</h3>
<p>Mobile phones, computers, Fitbits,
social media ... in our modern, technology-fuelled world it can be hard
to escape the endless pressure to go, go go. For some of us nightfall
does not even offer a reprieve. We reach for our phones or computers to
answer emails, check Twitter or Facebook and this keeps us awake long
into the night.</p>
<p>As creatures that evolved to stare
into the distance for predators, sleep with the dusk and rise with the
dawn, we should not be surprised to find that the fast pace of our lives
takes a toll on our health</p>
<p>Research suggests that we are more
stressed and anxious than ever before and this seems to affect all age
groups from children and teens to pensioners. </p>
<p>The impact of prolonged stress on our
bodies is significant. It can cause long-term changes in our hormone
levels, as well as in our immune, heart and digestive systems. This
means our health begins to suffer. We come down with flu and colds more
often; we develop high blood pressure, become anxious or have difficulty
sleeping; we feel pain and fatigue, struggle with fertility or develop
digestive issues. Prolonged exposure to blue- light from electronic
screens can also do harm to our bodies as it interferes with natural
sleep patterns and melatonin production.</p>
<p>So how can we protect ourselves from
stress in our busy 21st Century lives? Some of the changes we can make
are straightforward and we can put them into practice straight away.
</p>
<p> Tech hygiene can help. This means
avoiding electronic devices in the hours before sleep, installing
something like f.lux on your computer, or enabling Night Shift mode on
your phone.</p>
<p> Being outside is also beneficial and
nothing beats a walk in nature for invigorating your body, reducing
stress and helping you to sleep. You don’t have to record it with your
Fitbit either for it to be any good for you. </p>
<p> What we eat and drink is also very
important. Making sure half of our plate at every meal is composed of
vegetables, ideally with at least half of them raw, perhaps in the form
of fruit or salad, will promote our bodies resistance to stress. Cutting
down on coffee, tea, alcohol and sugary foods is also a very good idea.</p>
<p> Nature can help in other ways. A
particular group of plants called “adaptogens” contain compounds that
help our hypothalamus and adrenal glands withstand all sorts of stress,
from work and emotional strain to the impact of illness and old age.
Medicines are made from these plants all over the world: ashwagandha and
holy basil in India; liquorice and asparagus in England; ginseng in
Asia; rhodiola in China and reishi in Japan.</p>
<p>We can also take comfort in the fact that unlike our new technologies, these medicines have been in use for thousands of years.</p>

Many companies offer employees the chance to boost their fundraising efforts by 'matching' the money they raise at an event or through an activity, such as our big raffle.
The list of companies that fund match is too long for us to list here – most high street banks, building societies, supermarkets and large companies offer match funding, but these schemes are not exclusive to the big corporates. If you work for a small or independent company, they may be interested in charitable giving through match funding too.
Please ask your HR department or check your company’s intranet or employee website. If they offer match funding, we can provide the information you need and help you complete any paperwork to process the contribution easily. If you are able to help in this way please do get in touch at info@friendsofwbgs.org as this is a really simple way to make a big difference.

<h4>Technological problems and natural solutions</h4><h3>Medicine from wild lettuce,
Californian poppy and passion
flower can help with sleep
disorders.</h3>
<p>Mobile phones, computers, Fitbits,
social media ... in our modern, technology-fuelled world it can be hard
to escape the endless pressure to go, go go. For some of us nightfall
does not even offer a reprieve. We reach for our phones or computers to
answer emails, check Twitter or Facebook and this keeps us awake long
into the night.</p>
<p>As creatures that evolved to stare
into the distance for predators, sleep with the dusk and rise with the
dawn, we should not be surprised to find that the fast pace of our lives
takes a toll on our health</p>
<p>Research suggests that we are more
stressed and anxious than ever before and this seems to affect all age
groups from children and teens to pensioners. </p>
<p>The impact of prolonged stress on our
bodies is significant. It can cause long-term changes in our hormone
levels, as well as in our immune, heart and digestive systems. This
means our health begins to suffer. We come down with flu and colds more
often; we develop high blood pressure, become anxious or have difficulty
sleeping; we feel pain and fatigue, struggle with fertility or develop
digestive issues. Prolonged exposure to blue- light from electronic
screens can also do harm to our bodies as it interferes with natural
sleep patterns and melatonin production.</p>
<p>So how can we protect ourselves from
stress in our busy 21st Century lives? Some of the changes we can make
are straightforward and we can put them into practice straight away.
</p>
<p> Tech hygiene can help. This means
avoiding electronic devices in the hours before sleep, installing
something like f.lux on your computer, or enabling Night Shift mode on
your phone.</p>
<p> Being outside is also beneficial and
nothing beats a walk in nature for invigorating your body, reducing
stress and helping you to sleep. You don’t have to record it with your
Fitbit either for it to be any good for you. </p>
<p> What we eat and drink is also very
important. Making sure half of our plate at every meal is composed of
vegetables, ideally with at least half of them raw, perhaps in the form
of fruit or salad, will promote our bodies resistance to stress. Cutting
down on coffee, tea, alcohol and sugary foods is also a very good idea.</p>
<p> Nature can help in other ways. A
particular group of plants called “adaptogens” contain compounds that
help our hypothalamus and adrenal glands withstand all sorts of stress,
from work and emotional strain to the impact of illness and old age.
Medicines are made from these plants all over the world: ashwagandha and
holy basil in India; liquorice and asparagus in England; ginseng in
Asia; rhodiola in China and reishi in Japan.</p>
<p>We can also take comfort in the fact that unlike our new technologies, these medicines have been in use for thousands of years.</p>
