Marlborough moves into red
The change in traffic light level has affected some upcoming events. The South Island Cheese Festival set for February 5 has been postponed, as has the Omaka Aviation Heritage Centre's Mosquito Day that was set for February 12. The Crusaders versus Hurricanes game at Lansdowne Park will instead happen 'behind closed doors' in Christchurch, and the Waihopai Spy Base Protest has been cancelled for the first time since 1988. Elsewhere in the south, cancellations include Christchurch's Great Kiwi Beer Festival, Warbirds over Wānaka, and the New Zealand Masters Games in Dunedin. How are you coping with the move to red?

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
