Reminder re tomorrow's seminar: Last call!

“LET’S TALK ABOUT WORDS: A Translinguistic Seminar on Word Anatomy, Etymology and Creativity” with Cristina Schumacher, MA

If you’re an author, teacher, researcher, creative or simply feel that there is a lot more to words than straightforward messages, then this 3-hour workshop is for you! Come explore the language mechanisms behind word formation and learn how to express yourself creatively through building your own, exclusive and unique words that anyone will understand. Learn about the fascinating field of etymology; how the seeds of words travel through time and different languages, creating strings of meaning that reveal how we think and see the world.

Our Term 4 workshop will be held on Saturday 12 November 2022 from 10:00am-1:00pm (NZ time).

Addictive Eaters Anonymous

The Team from Addictive Eaters Anonymous - Hamilton

What is Addictive Eaters Anonymous?

Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from addictive eating.

AEA has members who have suffered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Many have been underweight, overweight or obese; others were people of average weight yet suffered with an obsession with food. Members may have used exercise and other substances to try and control their weight. Before coming to AEA, members found that they were powerless over food, and unable to stop the food obsession.
