While retirement is typically a happy, relaxing time of life, Age Concern says it can be very difficult for some as they experience a sense of loss, self worth and a lack of purpose.
We understand this is a sensitive topic, but we want to chat with a retiree who has initially struggled with retirement and may have felt these, or similar emotions.

Most Christchurch people care about our waterways… but most also believe they’re not in good shape. Why aren’t we taking better care of them? What could we do together to improve water quality? If you’ve got ideas, we want to hear from you!

Re Bal A Vis X trainings,
If you have or you know children wanting/needing help to address reading/writing/attention challenges(commonly referred to as "
", "ADD", "dyslexia", "dyspraxia", "aspergers" , "autism" and many other such names used to describe different behaviours and learning styles), please feel free to inquire about the Bal A Vis X training schedules. I am a NZ registered teacher and I trained with Bill Hubert in this fun and very effective method of working towards coherence and optimal natural development in youngsters .
These exercises are highly effective in increasing all children's holistic development with emphasise on the visual, auditive, rhythmic and balance aspects.
Trainings are held in small groups, initially one on one and gradually up to groups of 4 children. Can be done at student's home if there is an absolutely flat hard levelled smooth floor area available or at my practice situated on Dovedale Av.
