Poor body image can lead to difficulties in social situations, as well as problems with eating which can ultimately have an impact on mental and physical health.

Many of us struggle to get a good night's rest. If you're looking for ways to sleep better, a few tools can help.

• A white noise machine can help to mask disruptive noises so that you can stay asleep through the night.
• A weighted blanket provides gentle pressure that has a soothing effect, much like a massage. The deep pressure stimulation provided by the blanket can help lower cortisol levels, the stress hormone.
• An eye mask can help to block out light and create a dark, peaceful environment that is conducive to sleep.

Using one or more of these tools, you can create an environment conducive to sleep and start getting the rest you need.
