Anxiety is natural for all creatures, so don't beat yourself up for it!
Hi Neighbours, you will have noticed that anxiety is natural for all creatures, and it is very important as a signal to help us navigate the world. But sometimes this signal can become like a smoke alarm that is stuck on.
How to turn the alarm button off? Come and soothe body and mind with a small group for a gentle mindfulness session of ease and peace. The sessions develop the skill to meet our anxiety with care and compassion to loosen it up and find more courage in the face of our challenges.
Session includes gentle movement and relaxing simple meditation. Meadowbank Community Centre on Tuesday 2 May 1 - 2.15pm. Bookings essential. Contact me.
First session free, then Koha welcome.
Ongoing first Tuesday of the month.

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.
