SUMMER PARKLAND MEDITATIONS - Sundays in the Auckland Domain

Durba from Avondale

Whether you’re a newcomer to meditation or seeking the company of others and a group to practice with, you’re warmly invited to our drop-in, free weekend park meetings. We’re currently offering meditation courses in our peaceful Auckland parklands on Sunday mornings at 10am.

Informal and interesting, the sessions share a range of different meditation skills and guided exercises along with the ABC’s of meditation, helping you to establish your own ongoing practice. A popular aspect is the use of simple mantras along with harmonium accompaniment.

If you’re keen on joining in, call or text to: 0221887432, or leave your details on our contact page below and we’ll be in touch to confirm each Sunday’s upcoming session.

Weather permitting, we meet at the Auckland Domain at 10:00am by the band rotunda off Domain Drive. Bring a mat to sit on the grass, or a meditation stool. We usually have some refreshments afterwards. No charge, all welcome.

There’s a helpful online guide as well, taking you on a familiarization journey. Visit: nz.srichinmoycentre.org...

Poll: Should you ask before planting tall shrubs/trees near your property line?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It may be fine now but in a few years trees can block out light or views for neighbours.

Do you think neighbours should ask before they go ahead and plant these?
