Free Yoga Nidra Sessions – Looking for Volunteers 🌸

Valentina from One Tree Hill

Hi Neighbours! 👋
I’ve recently completed my Yoga Nidra Teacher Training, and as part of my preparation for the final exam in mid-October, I need to practice guiding sessions once a week with a small group.
If you’ve ever been curious about Yoga Nidra, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience it for free!

Yoga Nidra is a deeply relaxing guided meditation that:
🌿 Helps with anxiety, stress, and insomnia
🌙 Releases tension from body and mind
💫 Supports positive changes in your life

Session Details:
📍 Starting next week
📍 Thursday evenings (7:00–7:30 PM) or Sunday afternoons (time to arrange together)
📍 The location will depend on group size:
  ✔ If small, we can meet at my home in One Tree Hill
  ✔ If larger, I will arrange the Scout Hall in Panmure

The session itself is 30 minutes, but please allow around one hour including setting up and time for any questions.

No experience is needed — just bring a mat, a couple of pillows, and a blanket.

If you’re interested, please message me and let me know which day you would prefer – Thursday evening or Sunday afternoon.

Your help would be greatly appreciated, and I’d love to share this beautiful practice with you! 🙏

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?

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.
