FREE Guided Walking Meditation to Connect with Your Senses
Free and starts next Wednesday for 4 weeks - informal, fun & social not to mention great for your mental, physical and emotional health.
More details are on the Facebook event fb.me...
Are you an office worker on the 'hamster wheel' of life? Or perhaps you're stuck inside all day and are struggling with lethargy and lack of focus.
Well now the weather is improving, you can now finish your Wednesday 'hump day' doing something enjoyable and good for your mental, physical, and emotional health.
Walking meditation is often used by people who sit for long periods.
It can...
Improve digestion
Reduce anxiety
Improves blood sugar levels and circulation
Alleviate depression
Improves well-being
Improve sleep quality
Make exercise enjoyable
It's amazing how different we feel when paying attention to what's going on around us rather than what's swirling in our head.
These 4 free sessions will entail an easy walk from the Arts Village and around the Government Gardens along with a guided outdoor meditation.
The best thing about these sessions is the sense of community and connection with like minded people which is a massive protective factor for mental health.
And this 4 week block is completely FREE!

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)
.
