FREE! Yoga for Periods Workshop
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 😊
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.

Georgina's Rhubarb Crumble
Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.
This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
