What's on: Earthing Drawing Club - Saturday 14 March
Come home to that vast space within you in this afternoon retreat — with Tibetan Yoga, grounding meditations, nature immersion, sketching or journaling session with music + cacao, and a rejuvenating sound bath.
If you have a problem, project, business or creative endeavour you want solutions for, learn ways to tap into your inner wisdom and tune in to the creations, ideas & direction that wants to come through you at this time.
No experience in the arts or yoga necessary — this is about drawing out the whispers of your soul. You’ll be guided by holistic and creative facilitators to relax, ground, play and take away new daily supportive practices.
If you spin many plates all at once, you depend on your creative mind –– even if you don’t work in the arts. In our fast-paced world, coming home to our bodies, inner space and the Earth will help nourish us to overcome our challenges.

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.

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)
.
