The Certificate in NZ Wine runs over 4 sessions and is followed by an Advanced programme of another 4 sessions.

This week we have enjoyed tasting and learning about innovative estates such as Burn Cottage from Central Otago, Heron’s Flight who make an exceptional Sangiovese in Matakana. Always a pleasure to taste the wines of Hans and Therese Herzog and we savoured the Mistral, a blend of 60% Viognier, 20% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne.

Te Mata’s Cape Crest showcases Hawkes Bay barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc and is interesting to compare with Sancerre from Henri Bourgeois also the owner of Clos Henri. Pegasus Bay’s Finale is New Zealand best example of a Sauternes style with deliciously ripe Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc.

Learning about New Zealand’s wine geography and tasting some special wines along the way is always rewarding.

The wines that were tasted were -
- Hans Herzog Estate, Mistral 2016
- Burn Cottage Vineyard, Pinot Noir 2016
- Te Mata Estate Winery, Caupe Crest Sauvignon Blanc 2017
- Heron's Flight Vineyard - Matakana, Amphora Sangiovese 2016
- Pegasus Bay Winery, Finale 2017
- Henri Bourgeois Sancerre, 2018 (Clos Henri Vineyard)

When life is unpredictable anxiety, stress and tension are natural responses, unless we know how to create inner safety and inner calm

About this Event
Mindfulness is a very potent way to support yourself and 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. They also show that it works to complement most forms of medical treatment.

The Course:

This 8 week course offers a thorough grounding in the what, why and how of Mindfulness Based Stillness Meditation (MBSM), an internationally - recognised method developed by leaders in the mindfulness and meditation field. Each 2 hour class involved a mix of learning, discussion and practice. And each week builds on the previous one, so that by the end of the course, you have a robust basis for a beneficial personal practice.
Course dates: 7 - 9pm, Wednessdays, beginning 29 July
Venue: Stoney Homestead Community Hub, 12 Galbraith Greens, Silverdale
Limit 12 participants
Cost $150
Enquiries to liz@beinspired.co.nz or 021 988 468

Book here: www.eventbrite.co.nz...

About the facilitator:
Liz Weatherly is a Mindfulness Meditation Instructor trained through the Gawler Foundation. As well as teaching Mindfulness, Liz also teaches self awareness, self compassion and self respect to a wide range of individuals with a wide range of life challenges.

Testimonials from past Attendees:

"I had heard of meditation before but never practiced it and these tools will now be very useful." TB

"I had some idea of mindfulness, but the course has really deepened my knowledge and clarified things me. I gained a lot more than I expected to and was able to reflect a lot on myself and my relationships." MF

"The feeling of calmness after meditating was very unexpected" ES

"This was a more accessible, practical way to meditate that I can incorporate into my life more easily than other techniques I have used." JR
