FREE! Yoga for Periods Workshop
We are pleased to offer everyone this free yoga workshop next weekend! š (Saturday the 29th of May, 10:30am - 11:30am).
Yoga is for all - but menstruating women need to adjust their practice over the month, from one menstruation to the next menstruation. In this class, Julia Vajda de Albuquerque will share a specific asana sequence for the period days. Participants will learn what asanas should be avoided during their period, what asanas may help to relieve cramps and abdominal pains, and how to establish a monthly practice to get rid of mood swings of the body and mind and maintain a hormonal balance, as thought by Dr Geeta S. Iyengar.
Email info@womenz.org.nz to register. We have a limited supply of yoga mats that can be used for free at the centre š

Aroha (Love and Compassion) - Day 14
TÄwhirimÄtea and the Rescued TÄ«tÄ« BirdsāØ
In a time of great storms, TÄwhirimÄtea, Atua of winds and weather, saw the little tÄ«tÄ« (muttonbirds) struggling against fierce gales that had scattered their flock. Though known for his ferocity, TÄwhirimÄtea felt aroha for the vulnerable birds. He calmed the winds and guided the tÄ«tÄ« to shelter, teaching the Atua of the forest, TÄne, how to protect them with his trees. The birds thrived, and in gratitude, they became a source of sustenance and companionship for the people.
Moral: True power lies in compassion, and by caring for others, we create harmony in our world.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
