Why Mindfulness?
People coming to my sessions are interested in mindfulness for all sorts of reasons. Maybe wanting a pragmatic way of learning to calm down and not be so reactive at home or at work. They might be tormented by anxious thoughts which they know are not rational, and have heard that mindfulness can help. Maybe a particular physical challenge that they are grappling with – an illness or pain or sleep problems or want to reduce their blood pressure. Or just simply want to get to know themselves a bit more, and have heard that mindfulness can offer a useful map for this exploration.
If you are wanting to just have a taste of mindfulness to see if it can help, come and try some initial training and see if it makes sense to you.
I run a friendly little group. I teach gentle movement suitable for any body & peaceful stillness.
The first session is free then it is by donation.

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
