About your facilitators:
Brian Berneman is the co-founder of Conscious Action and You Being You as well as working as a wellness and spiritual coach and facilitator.
From an early age he was introduced to different teachings and traditions that opened up endless possibilities. After learning multiple healing techniques, Brian immersed himself in studies of Tibetan Buddhism and Tibetan Yoga and Meditation practice for a few years at Ratna Ling Retreat Center in California. This direct experience of living in a way that's more aligned with community, self-responsibility, respect, and compassion has inspired Brian to be a leader for new ways of being, through connecting to Self and others.
He is a master of healing techniques like Reiki and Del Arca, and runs Tibetan yoga classes and sound journeys in various studios in Auckland. Brian aims to help people find ways to connect with their inner resources, grow, develop, change and lead a more balanced and meaningful life.

She creates to mirror oneness, healing, serenity and play amidst the chaos and fragmentation of this modern world.
She has been a meditation and mindfulness practitioner since she was 15 and in 2012 had her first kundalini experience. She has been studying the yogic and intuitive arts ever since, drawing from paths and lineages such as Ashtanga and Karma Yoga, chakra balancing, light sourcing work and universal shamanism. Her private work has been said to be activating, transmuting and expansive. She studied under spiritual change agents Belinda Davidson and Rebecca Campbell and she firmly believes in creating experiences to allow people to find the healer and teacher within themselves.
Aside from this soul-based path, Meghan also enjoyed a career as an art director and copywriter in the advertising world, helping conscious and social change organisations find their authentic voice. She enjoys balancing the left and the right hemispheres of the brain, the horizontal and the vertical -- to find the middle point of every seeming contradiction to transcend limitations.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
