Worry is a habit you can unlearn -mindfulness helps!

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

Hi Neighbours, Jud Brewer is an associate professor of psychiatry at Brown University, known for his work on meditation and addiction. His book, “Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind,” addresses anxiety, which he understands as a kind of addiction. He has used meditation to help him and his and his clients understand and transform anxiety. Addictions are habits, and habits can be changed.

Come and soothe body and mind with a small group for a gentle mindfulness session of ease and peace next week. Session includes gentle movement and relaxing simple meditation.

Meadowbank Community Centre next week on Tue 1st of August 1 - 2.15pm. Bookings essential. Contact me

First session free, then Koha welcome. Ongoing first Tuesday of the month.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
