Enjoying meeting local people interested in meditation
Hi Neighbours, I had a lovely session in Meadowbank this week meeting some local people interested in meditation.
I run courses for people new to meditation, and sessions for experienced meditators to refresh their practice and connect with others. It was lovely to meet some locals from Kohimarama, Meadowbank and Remuera keen to start or further their meditation path.
Living locally myself, it feels like we are growing a community.
Contact me if you are interested to find out more. Here is a pic of me at my favourite local place: Orakei Basin

In October, the fine for parking in a designated mobility car park without a permit has jumped from $150 to $750—a 400% increase!
The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.
-
89.1% Yes, it's fair
-
10.3% No, it's unreasonable

0.7% Other - I'll share below
Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
