Why mindfulness?

Eve from Eve Rudkin Mindfulness

Maybe wanting a pragmatic way of learning to calm down and not be so reactive at home or at work. They might be bothered by anxious thoughts which they know are not rational, and have heard that mindfulness can help.
Maybe a particular physical challenge that they are grappling with – an illness or pain or sleep problems or want to reduce their blood pressure. Or just simply want to get to know themselves a bit more, and have heard that mindfulness can offer a useful map for this exploration.

If you are wanting to just have a taste of mindfulness to see if it can help, come and try some initial training and see if it makes sense to you.

I run a friendly little group. I teach gentle movement suitable for any body, & peaceful stillness.
The first session is free then it is by donation.
29 Saint Johns Road,
Meadowbank Community Centre Monday 21 July, 1.30 - 2.45pm
Ongoing 3rd Monday of the month.

Feel free to contact me: Eve Rudkin, registered teacher of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. 021 255 1485

Click Read More to find out more about what I do - I also offer one-on-one mental wellbeing sessions, courses for group bookings, and run a group for experienced meditators.

Artificial intelligence programs such as ChatGPT are here to stay - the question now is, how will they shape the future? Will the use of AI to complete daily tasks, particularly school work, impact cognitive abilities and creativity?

Recent work out of a MIT Media Lab suggests that people who used ChatGPT have lower brain engagement than those who did not when writing their essays. While the MIT Media Lab work has driven headlines recently, others have been quick to remind us that the fear of technology is nothing new.

We want to know: Is AI an addition to the technological toolbox, or should we be having bigger conversations about the impact of AI technology?
