Worry is a habit you can unlearn -mindfulness helps!

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

Hi Neighbours, Jud Brewer is an associate professor of psychiatry at Brown University. His book, “Unwinding Anxiety: New Science Shows How to Break the Cycles of Worry and Fear to Heal Your Mind,” addresses anxiety, which he understands as a kind of addiction. He has used mindfulness to help him and his and his clients understand and transform anxiety. Addictions are habits, and habits can be changed.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.

Dazzling Paws Dog Grooming Orakei Bay Village Remuera

Cindy from Dazzling Paws Dog Grooming

🐶 This handsome boy is Shoyu. 🫧
Shoyu came in for a freshen-up groom, and what a difference it made. Before his groom he had a thick, fluffy coat — and after a good brush-out, tidy trim, and pamper, he’s looking soft, neat, and feeling great.
A little refresh can make a big difference 🐾💜 Please see Read more
