It can also make us unhappy as there’s so much societal pressure to eat AND so much societal pressure to be slim.

So how can we sort this out in a holistic way – addressing the whole person including our physical, mental, emotional and social health and well being?

In this workshop, we’ll debunk some of the damaging information around weight and weight loss and we'll look at holistic practices for reducing and maintaining a healthy weight. We’ll learn about the part our genetics, sex, hormones, life-stage, macronutrient and micronutrient choices, lifestyle choices and support networks plays and how important our psychological toolbox is. (1/2 day)

Jane is a naturopath, medical herbalist, nutritionist and counsellor.


Dates: Saturday 14 September, 2019

Times: 1.00pm - 4.00pm

Location: Auckland Women's Centre, 4 Warnock St, Grey Lynn

Duration: 1/2 day

Cost: $30 - $60 sliding scale

In a serene Sunday afternoon concert with Turkish classical guitarist Barkin Sertkaya the two musicians will play music from their homelands.

They will also debut a new piece composed by Paine, commemorating the victims and heroes of Christchurch mosque shootings. The piece starts with tragedy and sadness, transforming gently into a sense of hope and an uplifting of the heart, infusing Middle Eastern harmonies and rhythms with Western. This will certainly be something special and a highlight of the peformance.

Tickets include entry to explore the house and refreshments before the show.

Sunday 15 September, 4pm. Tickets $30. To book contact concert919@brucepaine.co.nz A limited number of tickets are still available!
