| What gets you up in the morning? It’s a question that doesn’t often get asked, but asking yourself might just improve your sleep, mental health, and cognitive function for the better.
It’s well understood that knowing your values and purpose leads to improved health and longevity. A study into "Blue Zones" – communities where people are more likely to live past 100 – revealed that one of the main factors shared amongst centenarians is having a strong sense of purpose. This makes sense, as people who bring meaning to their lives are more likely to make a conscious effort to look after their health and wellbeing.
