Backup for what I have experienced - that meditation supports overall health

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

Hi Neighbours, I know when I am meditating regularly I feel better. I was really interested to read that researchers have found evidence that frequent meditation over several years may help alter the human gut – boosting the body’s immune system and reducing the risk of anxiety, depression and heart disease.

In a small study of Buddhist monks, researchers found deep meditation could help regulate the gut microbiome, and lower the risk of physical and mental ill health. The findings feature in the journal General Psychiatry, which is published by the British Medical Journal.

🐾 Adopt Shasha🐾

Pinal from Remuera

Hello neighbours

Meet Shasha, our beloved 11-year-old family dog! Currently living with my in-laws, Shasha is a perfectly healthy and good-spirited pup who brings joy to everyone she meets.

Shasha loves short walks and playing outdoors, but she also enjoys her downtime, often resting peacefully while keeping you company. She thrives on companionship and doesn’t like being alone, making her an ideal addition to a family that can offer her the love and attention she craves.

Due to my in-laws’ upcoming travels, they’ve made the difficult decision to find Shasha a new home where she will feel secure and cherished.

We’re not asking for any money—just a caring family that will give Shasha the affectionate home she deserves.
If you’re ready to welcome this sweet girl into your life and provide her with the love she needs, please reach out. Let’s make Shasha a part of your family! 🐶❤️
