FREE! Yoga for Periods Workshop

The team from Auckland Women's Centre

We are pleased to offer everyone this free yoga workshop next weekend! 😍 (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 😊

Mana (Authority, Power, and Prestige) - Day 15

Kiran Reddy from Mount Eden

Māui and the Sacred Fire

Māui, a legendary hero, sought to bring fire to the people from Mahuika, the Atua of fire. Māui approached Mahuika with respect for her mana, acknowledging her as the keeper of sacred power. Through wit and humility, he earned her trust, receiving the secret of fire to share with humankind. This act elevated Māui's mana and showed the importance of respecting authority while using power for the greater good.

Moral: Recognise and honour the mana of others while wielding authority with responsibility and integrity.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
