A New Year, A Better Rest - Oxford House

A New Year, A Better Rest

A new year brings fresh energy and good intentions. But resolutions only matter when they turn into action. At Dorelan, we begin January by supporting your journey towards better rest and overall wellbeing through expert advice on sleep, lifestyle, nutrition, movement, and mindfulness, available in the blog section of our website.



Whatever you wish for in the New Year, good health remains the foundation of everything. True wellbeing comes from respecting the needs of both body and mind, starting with balanced nutrition, proper hydration, and daily self-care.

The Importance of Sleep Hygiene

Sleep hygiene refers to the habits and behaviours that protect and enhance sleep quality. Simple routines can make a powerful difference:
  • Maintain regular sleep and wake times to support your circadian rhythm.
  • Limit screen exposure at least one hour before bedtime.
  • Wind down with relaxing activities such as reading, meditation, or journalling.
  • Create a calm, clean, and well-ventilated bedroom environment.
  • Avoid heavy meals, stimulants, and intense exercise late in the evening.

Planning to Live Better

Well-being also means finding balance between work, rest, relationships, and personal growth. Social connections, hobbies, and learning nourish the mind, just as quality sleep restores the body. And sleep begins with the right foundation. Dorelan mattresses are designed to support the body’s natural needs during rest, promoting correct posture, pressure relief, and deeper, more restorative sleep. With the right planning, habits, and sleep system, every moment, active or at rest, becomes more meaningful. Living better starts with sleeping well.
