Here's a few tips to help try and maintain good sleep at this tricky time.

[Oxford VR @Oxford_VR_Ltd]

The current situation is stressful for a host of reasons. #Stress and #sleep are not good bed partners. Poor sleep can exacerbate stress and stress can affect our sleep.
@Oxford_VR_Ltd #CBT Therapist, @polly_cbt offers advice on things that you can do to help you sleep better.

I feel lucky to be in a role where I am able to WFH, and use technology to keep in touch with my colleagues, friends and family. Today I'm also feeling grateful for my lovely fresh flowers. #gratitudejournal #mentalwellbeing

[Oxford VR @Oxford_VR_Ltd]

While we may not be at our offices it’s still #businessasusual @OxfordVR. All of our colleagues are working from home and are contactable via call, email & video. The need for improving access to high-quality #mentalhealthcare has never been more important.

[James Mitchinson @JayMitchinson]

The Prime Minister and Chief Medical Officer have issued new #CoronavirusOutbreak advice whilst warning we are entering an enormously difficult period. The root of the message: think of others. The #NHS needs our help to save lives and that means taking responsibility. 🙏🏻

Today marks 3 years since I joined @Oxford_VR_Ltd and what a 3 years it has been.
I've seen the company grow from 1 to 40 employees, and we've achieved great things along the way, with hopefully much more to come. Bring on the next 3. #StartuptoScaleup #VirtualReality

We had a great day yesterday at London Underground Cookery School celebrating the end of a successful year. I can't believe how long our team table has got!

Your mental health is not something to be ashamed of. Anyone can experience a mental health problem, so being able to talk about it is important to us all. See advice here: https://t.co/TwZnMmWant

Two years ago this week on a night out I came across a guy sitting on the ground outside, his head down looking sad. I stopped and asked him if he was ok. He said no, that he had a fight with his girlfriend and he was feeling really low.
