Jake and Helen - famous mindfulness attendees!
Hi Neighbours, Jake and Helen did a mindfulness course with me 18 months ago then wanted a regular "top up." I didn't expect them to be very committed but.....
I set up a regular relaxing mindfulness session at Meadowbank ... As you know, the last couple of years haven't been easy, with lockdowns, and illnesses and a few sessions went online. In all, I have done 16 sessions, often its just a very small group but Jake and Helen have come to EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.
So I thought it was time to celebrate it with a picture!
If you want to find out why they keep coming, contact me to get the details, and join us on Tuesday at 1pm at Meadowbank.
The session includes gentle movement and relaxing meditation for all levels. Meadowbank Community Centre- 1 - 2.15pm. Koha welcome (first session free). Social distancing, masked until seated. Ongoing first Tuesday of the month.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
