Mindfulness Meditation 4 - Week Course

Liz from Silverdale

ABOUT MINDFULNESS
Whether you are dealing with chronic stress, illness, issues stemming from imbalance in your life - or simply wanting to incorporate a great wellness practice in your day - one of the things that can really help is to include the "reset" offered by mindfulness meditation.

Mindfulness is a very potent way to support yourself and to give both body and mind a break from living in the "Red zone" of stress and overwhelm.

It's an antidote of sorts to anxiety, difficulty concentrating, poor health or performance and more.

There are now over 4000 published research articles attesting to the therapeutic benefits of meditation for a wide range of physical and psychological conditions and it's compatibility and synergy with most forms of medical treatment.

THE COURSE
This 4 week course offers a thorough introductory grounding in the WHAT, WHY and HOW of Mindfulness-based Stillness Meditation (MBSM), a type of mindfulness developed at the Gawler Cancer Foundation in Australia and recognised internationally by leaders in the field. (Part 2 goes further into emotions, awareness and finding stillness).

Each 2 hour class involves a mix of learning, discussion and practice. Each week builds on the previous ones, so that by the end of the course, you have a well- established and robust basis for a satisfying ongoing home practice.

COURSE DATES AND TIMES: 7.15 -9.15pm, every Friday from 15 November to 6 December, 2019

VENUE: Stoney Homestead Community Hub, 12 Galbraith Greens, Silverdale, Auckland

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
