Free talk tomorrow lunchtime - How Dreams Can Help the Grieving Process

Siobhan McPherson from The Grief Centre

Come and join us during Grief and Loss Awareness Week at Mt Eden Village Centre on Thursday 26th July at 12.30pm.

HOW DREAMS CAN HELP US IN THE GRIEF PROCESS

The Grief Centre has organised for Margaret Bowater to present a talk on dreams and grieving. This talk may be useful for those who are experiencing loss and grief, or for those working with others going through this.

"It is normal for us to dream about our loved ones after they have left us, enabling us to continue our relationship at a spiritual level, and even to sort out any “unfinished business” that remains on our minds. Different kinds of dream images show us how we progress through a range of emotions as we come to terms with the loss."

Margaret will summarise some recent research and present examples of grief dreams contributed by clients. She will also discuss some of the visionary dreams that may occur to those who are on the edge of dying.

Date: Thursday 26th July 2018
Time: 12.30pm – 1.30pm
Location: The Lounge at Mt Eden Village Centre, 449 Mount Eden Rd, Mount Eden, Auckland 1024
Cost: Koha

Registration: You can just turn up on the day, but if you want to secure your place then email office@griefcentre.org.nz

We look forward to seeing you there!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
