Harmony Circle – Guest Presenter Sunday 26th July
Bev Monahan - Counselling Psychologist

Bev has worked in both Mental Health and Addiction Services for 20 years. During this time she has gained extensive experience working in both 1:1 and group therapy.
Bev developed the Managing Mood Group in 2011 as a result of seeing clients who often re-presented to services showing little improvement; on reflection it was clear that while many were motivated to make change they often lacked the skills to do so.
The Managing Mood group is a thirteen week open group that focuses on teaching skills in Stress and Anxiety Management, Emotional Regulation, Distress Tolerance, Interpersonal Effectiveness, Values and Goals. Over 500 people have attended and shown positive outcomes.
Bev is passionate about empowering others to make positive changes through the use of skills that will enable group members to make decisions that align with their values and manage their emotions more effectively, resulting in increased resilience, enhanced quality of life and healthier relationships.

Come along to hear more and learn how this may be of help to you or anyone you may know.

Bev will be offering a FREE Managing Mood Group Manual for the winner of the evening draw.

Everyone welcome, this is an open group, come along if you can, look forward to seeing you there!

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a travel story for Stuff about the things that have surprised returning Kiwis about New Zealand. If you have recently returned from overseas or know someone who has, it would be great to hear about the things that have stood out for you, for better or for worse. Whether it's to do with the weather, the cost of things, the public transport, the food, the housing, the people or something else entirely, we'd be keen to hear about it.

"My neighbour Ann, a retired special ed teacher, goes the extra mile for her community. On her neighbourhood walks she notices blocked drains, or dangerous pavements on school routes and spends time phoning the Council to get them fixed. She is part of a local group that petitioned for new school crossings on Takanini School Road. She volunteers at the local school for free maths tuition. She sets a really great example of looking out for her community and makes the world a better place."

K Road music festival 'The Others Way' will go ahead in September following coronavirus uncertainty, organisers have announced.
Now in its sixth year, the Auckland event will take place on Friday, September 11, with the line-up to be announced in the coming weeks.
The festival is organised by the record store Flying Out, which is located just off K Road.
“We had to think very seriously about whether to go ahead with the festival this year, but concluded that the very best way to support bands, our local venues and the hospitality community is to put on a show," said co-founder Matthew Davis.

Your dog might be older (in human years) than you realise

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

Think you know how old your dog is? Think again.

Multiplying by seven isn't accurate, a new study says. Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine and other leading health institutions across the country have now debunked that common belief.

Multiplying by seven isn't accurate, a new study says. Researchers at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine and other leading health institutions across the country have now debunked that common belief.

According to their findings, a one-year-old dog is similar to a 31-year-old human.
