LAST CHANCE to book for tomorrow evenings Laughter Club in Orewa at 6pm.

Everyone wants health and happiness in their lives. But instead we are getting stressed out, depressed, getting less sleep, having more negative thoughts and feeling isolated. Does this sound like you? Are you someone who wants to move on and bring more laughter and joy into your life? You are in the right place. Laughter Yoga is the answer.
Laughter Yoga is a revolutionary idea – simple and profound. An exercise routine, it is sweeping the world and is a complete well-being workout. Developed by a medical doctor from India Dr. Madan Kataria and it has spread across 100 countries. And now on the Coast!

* You can laugh with special guided techniques: It’s easy. Anyone can laugh for no reason without relying on humor, jokes or comedy and one can feel the benefits on the very first session!

* Real and Contagious Laughter: We initiate laughter as a body exercise in a group and with eye contact and childlike playfulness. It soon turns into real and contagious laughter.

* Oxygenates Your Body and Brain: Laughter Yoga is combination of deep breathing exercises from yoga and laughter exercises, which oxygenates our body and brain, makes us feel more healthy and energetic.

Laughter yoga is NOT:

* like traditional yoga, we don't need mats, blocks or any specialist equipment.

* downward facing dogs, the tree pose and other traditional yoga positions.

Laughter Yoga IS:

* FUN, slightly crazy, great to enjoy with friends!

* an aerobic exercise, that focusses on laughter exercises, simple stretching and breathing techniques.

* just what this crazy world we live in needs right now to bring some happiness and joy back into our lives.

Want to see some laughter yoga in action? Check out this great video below.

We'd love you to come and join us at our Laughter Club tomorrow night - more details of the event here. Love & laughter, Jo 😂🤣 www.facebook.com...

With the closure of Alice Eaves Bush because of kauri dieback and limitations imposed by the Covid 19 pandemic, it has been difficult for the Friends of Alice Eaves members to accomplish much in the park over the last year.
However, last Saturday the group was able to clean up the area around the entrance to the park on Hillcrest Road. Weeds and rubbish were removed and a general tidy-up of the area was carried out.
The bridge at the entrance to the park off Old North Road was sprayed to remove mould and algae.
Once the new bridge at Kensington is completed the group hopes to carry out track clearing at the western end of the park along the Nukumea Stream.
Other activity in the park includes water testing and pest trapping.
Water quality testing of the Nukumea Stream is carried out each month. There was some concern over a blockage of the stream near the bridge on Hibiscus Highway.
Significant rain was needed to clear this blockage. Significant rainfall is something we have not had in this area for quite some time.
However, the limited rain that has fallen has been enough to clear the blockage and the stream is now running freely.
Scientists from Whitebait New Zealand regularly inspect the Nukumea stream for evidence of inanga and giant kokopu spawning but this just doesn't appear to be occurring.
Traplines are maintained in Eaves Bush and surrounding areas. A few possums have been caught and the limited disappearance of bait from bait stations suggests a fairly lengthy history of trapping has pest numbers reasonably under control.
