Meditation: Toolkit For Calm
Inner peace, simplicity and happiness have always been there inside us, qualities of our heart and soul that are often hidden and lost beneath the busy
complexities of our mind. This free six-evening course covers the essential techniques in learning and mastering meditation, rediscovering the inner life and restoring clarity and calm.
Our presenter is Jogyata Dallas, who has taught workshops on meditation in many countries and authored several books about the subject and his own personal experiences.
Each evening introduces new material and meditation exercises that encourage stillness in the mind, body and breath, mantras and chants, the principle branches of yoga and examines the seven essential steps in developing a more spiritual lifestyle. It is recommended that you start on the first or second evening rather than joining after this.
Admission is free, registration is encouraged to ensure seating.

Even Australians get it - so why not Kiwis???
“Ten years ago, if a heatwave as intense as last week’s record-breaker had hit the east coast, Australia’s power supply may well have buckled. But this time, the system largely operated as we needed, despite some outages.
On Australia’s main grid last quarter, renewables and energy storage contributed more than 50% of supplied electricity for the first time, while wholesale power prices were more than 40% lower than a year earlier.
[…] shifting demand from gas and coal for power and petrol for cars is likely to deliver significantly lower energy bills for households.
Last quarter, wind generation was up almost 30%, grid solar 15% and grid-scale batteries almost tripled their output. Gas generation fell 27% to its lowest level for a quarter century, while coal fell 4.6% to its lowest quarterly level ever.
Gas has long been the most expensive way to produce power. Gas peaking plants tend to fire up only when supply struggles to meet demand and power prices soar. Less demand for gas has flowed through to lower wholesale prices.”

If even Australians see the benefit of solar - then why is NZ actively boycotting solar uptake? The increased line rental for electricity was done to make solar less competitive and prevent cost per kWh to rise even more than it did - and electricity costs are expected to rise even more. Especially as National favours gas - which is the most expensive form of generating electricity. Which in turn will accelerate Climate Change, as if New Zealand didn’t have enough problems with droughts, floods, slips, etc. already.
