Chair Yoga

Health Promotion from Age Concern Hawke's Bay - Waipukurau

Chair yoga class is very different to what you might think of as yoga. This class is about supporting functional mobility, the kind of movement that helps you to continue to carry-out day to day tasks, to help you to continue to look after yourself and your wellbeing.

Chair yoga is also a way to practice yoga that will allow you to manage ageing and chronic conditions, as well as support pain management, insomnia, and your mindset. It will support you over time to become more resilient and learn to cope with the changes of your conditions.

Chair yoga will incorporate focus and coordination, which can support memory, body awareness and physical balance.

Age Concern Hawke's will be offering a FREE 8-week class. First session is October 27th at 9:30am. Location is the Waipawa Senior Citizens Hall at 55b Waverley Street, Waipawa.

Booking Essential as numbers are limited. Phone ☎ 06 858 9158 or email 📧 healthpromotion@ageconcernhb.co.nz

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Type 'Not For Print' if you wish your comments to be excluded from the Conversations column of your local paper.
