4 Benefits of Sleeping Next To Your Partner

Jay from Beds4U Whangarei

1. Provides Comfort and Security: Sleeping next to your partner can make you feel comfortable, secure, and loved. Feeling the warmth of their body next to yours can create a sense of intimacy and closeness that can be hard to replicate in any other setting.

2. Reduces Stress and Anxiety: Sleeping next to someone you trust and care about can help you feel less stressed and anxious. The presence of your partner can help regulate your breathing and heart rate, leading to a more restful and peaceful sleep.

3. Encourages Better Sleep: When you sleep next to your partner, you may experience fewer disruptions during the night. Studies have shown that couples who sleep together often have more consistent sleep patterns, fall asleep faster, and sleep longer than those who sleep alone.

4. Promotes Emotional Bonding: Sleeping next to your partner can promote emotional bonding and help you feel more connected to one another. This can lead to a stronger, healthier relationship overall.


Sleeping next to your partner can be a positive and rewarding experience. It can bring you closer together, improve your sleep quality, and promote overall health and wellbeing.

Roading contractors have made a good start for the summer programme

The Team from Whangarei District Council

The District’s road repair season is off to a good start, with a third of summer’s rehabilitation projects completed.

Infrastructure Chairman Simon Reid says sections of Russell Road (Whakapara), Marua and Snooks roads have already been renewed.

“This year, we have been closing roads and detouring traffic around some worksites to reduce the overall time spent on the repairs, so teams can move onto new jobs faster. It has already paid off, cutting weeks from the timeframes so far.”

Over the next three months, Fulton Hogan will complete two sections of Pipiwai Road (central and north), Tatton Road and Roydon Drive, while Downer will rehabilitate sections of Three Mile Bush Road South, Raumanga Valley Road and Flyger Road.

Seal extensions are also scheduled for sections of McLean Road (south) and Gray Road (north).

“We are currently working on Pipiwai Road, next to the Northland Golf Club, and the job should be completed early in December. We will then start preparing Three Mile Bush Road and Pipiwai Road, by Matarau Road.”

Councillor Reid says design work for the rest of the sites is almost complete, and the whole programme should be complete by March 2025 if the weather holds.

“When overnight temperatures have risen enough, we will start repairs to sites where gravel stripped off the seal after a sudden cold snap during last year’s construction season. We will report back on that in coming weeks. The contractors will cover the cost of those repairs."
