Posture and Breathing - a Sunday afternoon workshop

Sue from Brooklyn

Hi neighbours
I'm running another Sunday afternoon workshop soon:

"Posture and Breathing (Improve both at once !)"
Sunday Afternoon 7th May 1.30pm - 4.30pm

Are you sitting for long hours ?
Would you like to improve your posture (but not sure how ) ?
Do you breathe freely, without tension ?

An easy, natural upright posture enables you to breathe better. Conversely, freeing your breathing will help to improve your posture.

Learn to free habitual patterns of posture and breathing with
Awareness through Movement lessons® (Feldenkrais Method® ).
Are you curious about the Feldenkrais Method ? This would be a great introduction.

Enquiries and Registration: Sue 0274667123

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
