WHAT's ON: Meditation Month - Citywide FREE meditation classes/workshops
In response to growing urban problems of stress and declining mental health, Hour of Peace Meetup organisers and Auckland’s Sri Chinmoy Meditation Centre are offering a citywide free program throughout March which will share basic meditation skills with anyone keen to learn.
Meditation Month will introduce the key steps in getting started, and cover a variety of techniques in calming the mind and coping with the often complex challenges of living in today’s world.
Meditation Month is an admission-free initiative simply dedicated to a more peaceful world and to the quest for happiness that we all share.

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
