Retirement is your time to do what you love. Maybe for you this doesn't mean stopping work altogether; instead, it can mean shifting gears to something more fulfilling or pursuing passions that you now have time for. This might mean volunteering, part-time work, or even starting your own business.

If so, it's time to start prioritising your sleep schedule.
The science behind a consistent sleep schedule is clear - it can profoundly impact your quality of life.
From improving cognitive function, mood, and physical health to reducing stress levels, here are the benefits of a regular sleep schedule.
What is a consistent sleep schedule?
It's no secret that a good night's sleep is essential for our physical and mental health. But did you know that consistent sleep schedules can also improve your quality of life?
According to the National Sleep Foundation, a consistent sleep schedule helps regulate our body's natural sleep-wake cycle, known as our circadian rhythm. This internal clock helps to control when we feel sleepy and when we feel awake.
When our sleep schedule is inconsistent, it can disrupt our circadian rhythm and make it harder for us to get a good night's sleep. This can lead to fatigue, poor concentration, and irritability.
Benefits of a regular sleep schedule
A regular sleep schedule can improve your quality of life in several ways. Here's a closer look at some of the most important effects of regular sleep schedules.
Regulates the body's circadian rhythms
The circadian rhythm is the body's internal clock, regulating hormone levels, body temperature, sleep-wake cycles, and other bodily functions.
A regular sleep schedule helps regulate the body's circadian rhythm, allowing it to run more smoothly and efficiently.
That's because our bodies are designed to operate on a 24-hour circadian rhythm cycle. This natural sleep pattern is controlled by our internal "biological clock. It regulates everything from when we feel sleepy to when we feel energetic.
Disrupting our circadian rhythm by sleeping at different times each night can lead to all sorts of problems, including insomnia, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.
Improves mood and cognitive function
Getting enough quality sleep is essential for good mental health.
A regular sleep schedule ensures that your body gets the rest it needs to function properly. This can help improve mood and cognitive function and reduce the risk of depression and anxiety.
Enhances the immune system and overall health
Getting enough sleep is important for overall health and wellness.
There are several reasons why sleep is so important for the immune system.
When you sleep, your body produces cytokines. These are proteins that help to fight off infection and inflammation.
In addition, sleep helps to reduce stress levels. Stress can impact the immune system, making it harder for the body to fight off illness.
Reduces risk of chronic health conditions
A regular sleep schedule can help to reduce the risk of chronic health conditions such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), chronic health conditions are "conditions that last one year or more and require ongoing medical attention or limit activities of daily living." Some examples of chronic health conditions include heart disease, stroke, sleep apnea, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and asthma.
Furthermore, research has shown that a lack of sleep can increase your risk of developing chronic health conditions. For example, one study found that individuals who slept less than six hours per night had a significantly increased risk of developing coronary artery disease.
Promotes a more restful and restorative sleep
A regular sleep schedule promotes more restful and restorative sleep. Having a consistent bedtime and wake time helps to set the body's internal clock, allowing you to fall asleep more easily and stay asleep longer. This can leave you feeling more refreshed and energised in the morning.
Tips for adopting a consistent sleep schedule
Fortunately, you can do a few simple things to help get your sleep cycle back on track. Here are some tips for adopting a consistent sleep schedule:
1. Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day, even on weekends.
2. Avoid caffeine and alcohol before bed. To get the most out of your sleep, avoid drinking coffee, tea, or other caffeinated beverages after 2 pm and abstain from alcohol at least 4 hours before bedtime.
3. Create a calming bedtime routine. A relaxing bedtime routine can help signal your body that it's time for sleep.
4. Avoid looking at screens for at least an hour before bed. The blue light emitted from TVs, computers, and phones can disrupt our natural melatonin production and make it harder to fall asleep.
5. It may take some time to adjust if you're not used to following a regular sleep schedule. But stick with it – your body will thank you!

They've done this before. They knew what they were after and knew when home would be empty.
On the off chance anyone saw anything, please let me know.

NZTA / Waka Kotahi scam:
- The scam is a text message saying it's from New Zealand Transport Agency Waka Kotahi, and it encourages the recipient to pay an overdue road toll by visiting a fake website, threatening to take the matter to court within 15 days if they don’t pay up.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- While it is not the first time toll payments have been utilised by scammers, the threat of court action could see more people fall victim.
- The sender will either be a unknown phone number or unknown email address.
Want to report one of these scams? Do so, on Netsafe
NZ Post scam:
- This scam arrives by test message and says it's from NZ Post.
- The premise is that delivery of your parcel was unsuccessful so in order to rearrange delivery. you must click on a link to give your correct address.
- The aim is to trick people into giving away their personal details or pay them money.
- NZ Post advises people not to click the link, but to report the message to the Department of Internal Affairs by forwarding it to 7726.
Think you may have fallen prey to a scam? Get in touch with Netsafe or contact your bank if it involved your bank details.
Remember, if you didn't expect the message and you are now asked to share personal details or money, then stop contact and seek advice elsewhere.
Feel free to share any below that you've encountered recently. This may help others across the country be aware.
