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

Animal Abuser

Lois from Red Beach

🚨 URGENT WARNING TO ALL LOST & FOUND / PET REHOMING PAGES 🚨 and people rehoming pets or reporting lost animals.
ZHENYA THORNTON SMITH, Pukekohe
It has come to our attention that a long-term, repeat animal abuser is still actively obtaining animals through Facebook groups.

The type of animal does not matter — birds, livestock, dogs, small pets — anything he can access.

He monitors rehoming pages. He approaches people offering “help.” He presents as reasonable. He will say the right things.

Do not give this person any animals under any circumstances.

If you are an admin of a lost & found page, a community group, or a pet rehoming group:

• Please stay vigilant
• Check profiles carefully
• Share this warning across your networks

Animals have already paid the price for people not knowing.

We cannot rely on authorities to protect them. That leaves us.

If you are unsure about someone requesting an animal, reach out privately before proceeding.

Let’s close the loopholes. Let’s protect the vulnerable.
Do not give this person any animals under any circumstances.
