When things get overwhelming, what do you do to reset?

It’s been a little full-on at the office lately, and the Neighbourly team found ourselves chatting about something we all experience: stress.

We got talking about the power of nature — green spaces like parks, bush walks, or even just sitting under a tree, and blue spaces like the ocean, lakes, or rivers. Research agrees: being in nature really does help calm the mind. We’re lucky here in Aotearoa to have such beautiful spots right on our doorstep!

But sometimes, getting out for a walk or escaping to the beach isn’t an option. So we’re curious...

We want to know: What do you do to find a moment of calm when life gets a bit too much?
A hot cuppa? A good playlist? Staring out the window?

Let us know ... your go-to might help someone else breathe a little easier, too.

The Hilux is in good working order - it starts without issue and runs well. Has a brand-new clutch, and hands-free parrot system. It does have some small chips and a slight dent in the rear bumper. Also, the Air conditioner lever not catching properly but does not affect use.

I've kept up with maintenance to ensure its reliability and only selling due to upgrading. These Utes are well-known for their strength and longevity.

The only mainland Royal Albatross breeding colony in the world can be found at Dunedin's Taiaroa Head. The Albatross are largest (and arguably the prettiest) seabird and is a taonga species to Māori.

Keen to see a fluffy royal albatross live? Head to the Royal Cam - a 24-hour live stream of an albatross nest.

Why the live feed? Well, the royal albatross are slow-breeding birds, and lay only one egg every two years.
Currently the chick in the feed is in its post-guard period, and is left alone. The parents are only returning with food every few days. This little chick will be hitting a milestone really soon - it will finally take their first flight in September! Keep an eye on our little celebrity here.

We hope this link brings a smile!

Cambridge St Villa

Paul from Levin

A Cambridge St villa built in 1896. I understand that it was Levin's first vicarage and that the church owned a very large area of land surrounding the house. I photographed the villa in 2014.
