Kia ora all!

I am doing some market research as part of the launch of my Breathwork session wellness offerings: www.somethingaboutbreath.com...

We all need (&want!) to invest in self-care, yet prices are so expensive, cost of living is rising and 'extras' aren't always in budget. I get this.

I am curious to know what you spend per month/ year on things like: wellness activities, yoga, massage, skincare products, supplements, therapy etc.

I think it's important to 'read the room' & factor in scalable price points where possible.

If you could please give your thoughts/ feedback/ advice, that would be greatly appreciated!

PLEASE FILL OUT: forms.gle...

Kia ora and have a great holiday season everyone!

A report has shown that clinics around New Zealand are understaffed, with GP's being overworked and underpaid. And for everyday kiwis, healthcare and emergency healthcare is simply not accessible.

The General Practice Owners Association of Aotearoa's report titled ‘‘On The Brink’’ outlines the urgent need to address pay parity for GP nurses and doctors, beef up workforce numbers and improve funding allocations for practices with the hopes that this makes heatlhcare more accessible in the community.

Are you noticing delays in getting GP appointments or long waits at after-hours care?
