WINTER WELLNESS GUIDE - Pick-me-ups for when the Mercury Drops - Leisa Harford
The icy fingers of Jack Frost may soon be leaving their ornamental designs on many a window pane, but this is no reason to let the advent of winter send a chill down your spine ... we’ve put together a winter wellness guide to ensure you make it through the cooler season with a warm glow in your heart, a healthy smile on your face and a cheery spring in your step ...

8 WAYS TO A HEALTHIER, HAPPIER LIFE - Follow your Intuition - Nicola Kimpton
How often have you had a gut feeling or sudden flash of insight that turned out to be right? Now, research published in the British Journal of Psychology has discovered what we’ve long suspected: these feelings (or intuition) are real and we should take our hunches seriously . . .

May 2010 Issue:

MANA RETREAT - A Multilayered Gift - Karin de la Rey.
The coastal road from Thames to Mana Retreat on the Coromandel Peninsula is a windy, but scenic route. The scenery invites sneaky peeks at the clear blue water of the Hauraki Golf that contrasts deliciously with the roughness of the Pohutukawa tree trunks that frame parts of SH 25. The slowing down at corners happens with expected
repetitiveness, a subtle way to prepare me for my own slowing down process – a ritual of letting go, of embracing a time of relaxation, a time to discover myself yet again.

ALLERGY ALERT! - Don’t Be So Sensitive - Leisa Harford - Remember the ‘old’ days? Gender roles were clearly defined; women kept the kitchen and kids in line, while the men brought home the figurative bacon ... A Sunday roast was the mainstay of most families, with everyone routinely eating what they were served with no complaints or fuss ... However, these days we are bombarded with the complexities of one or more ‘fussy’ eating stipulations from one or more of the family or guests at our dinner table. Sensitivities, intolerances (we are not talking about personality differences here) and allergies, commonly dictate the menus at many a dinner party, cafe, restaurant or day
care centre, with an estimated one in fi ve New Zealanders being affected to some degree. While for many people this causes mild to moderate discomfort from symptoms, for some people the effects are potentially life-threatening.

April 2010 Issue:

HYPNOTHERAPY - Tools to Kickstart a Smoke-free Lifestyle - a Success Story - Meredith McCarthy. I was ten, trying to fit in and was starting to become interested in boys. My best friend Clare was about a year older than me. She seemed to have a handle on how to
impress the opposite sex. I remember Clare and I taking my family dog Rosie for numerous walks. Clare would talk about lots of things. I
would look up to her, she seemed to know so much, she taught me what swear words were and all sorts of other things. One day she pulled out a packet of cigarettes and asked me if I would like to try one.

KOMBUCHA - Harbinger and Safety Net - HellaD. Kombucha is a fermented tea created by a mysterious symbiotic colony of yeasts and bacteria. It looks and feels like a rubbery pancake, and fl oats on the top of strong black tea and sugar for seven to ten days. The resulting liquid is similar to fizzy iced tea and is very good for cleaning out toxins, supporting the liver and digestive system.
