Keeping a Routine


I remember reading this somewhere many years ago and it is something I have always believed and advice that I have always followed....
 
'Keep your horse or pony on a regular schedule.  Your horse will not understand if you sleep in and 
miss its morning feeding or exercise.  If you do want to change your horse's feeding or exercise 
routine, do it gradually to allow the horse time to get used to the new pattern'


In fact the Sleep Foundation offers the following advice for us too ...

Stick to a sleep schedule of the same bedtime and wake up time, even on the 
weekends. This helps to regulate your body's clock and could help you fall asleep 
and stay asleep for the night.

I even try to change things gradually when we change the clocks here in the UK and change mine by half an hour on Friday/Saturday and half an hour on Saturday/Sunday night!!


You can also follow me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for updates on Basil, Tommy and Daisy.

Until next time!
