Free Seminar on Macular Degeneration in Waikanae next Saturday

Anna from Macular Degeneration NZ

Hi everyone, please don't take your vision for granted. Macular Degeneration is an age-related eye disease, affecting 1 in 7 people above the age of 50, and it is the leading cause of blindness in New Zealand!

There is a free talk next Saturday, 10th April from 10am - 11.30am at Waikanae Baptist Church (286 Te Moana Road) by ophthalmologist Dr. James Leong.

Please come and learn about the impact of Macular Degeneration, medical research, treatments and resources available. Register for the event at www.mdnz.org.nz... or email info@mdnz.org.nz. Call 0800 MACULA (0800 622852) for further information.

Remember: Early detection saves sight!

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Feeling overwhelmed?

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

Hi Neighbours - If you feel like you can easily get swamped or snowed under, that is something Mindfulness can help with. My clients report that practicing mindfulness helps them feel they can cope better with stressful situations, feeling less overwhelmed.
Mindfulness trains us to paying attention to the present moment, which creates space to observe your thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them.

I run sessions on the third Monday of each month at Meadowbank Community Centre, 1.30, 75 mins - Next one Monday 16th
The session includes gentle movement and relaxing simple meditation.
Contact me - the first session free, then Koha welcome. 021 255 1485
