HEALTH & WELLBEING 

"Inspiring minds, connecting hearts, building community" 


​THE ART & SCIENCE OF ASTROLOGY


How can you possibly understand the other people in your life when you hardly understand yourself? This is a start-from-scratch introduction to Astrology for those who know nothing much as well as those who have some knowledge. We will explore how planetary positions and their cycles play out through the signs and houses of the horoscope. Astrology can be used as a tool for personal growth and healing. You will discover the aspects in your own chart in a way that explains much about your personality, your strengths and weak-nesses, and your response to events. Join our tutor Francis Evans, an experienced astrological counsellor and certified practitioner of NLP.

CHAKRADANCE 

I’m delighted to be offering a 7-week Chakradance ® series, beginning this May. Chakradance is a gentle, guided movement practice that helps you reconnect with yourself through music, movement, and creative reflection. There are no steps to learn and no dance experience needed — simply allow your body
to move in its own natural way. Each week we explore a different chakra using specially designed music that supports emotional release, insight, and inner balance. Sessions close with a short mandala drawing to help integrate the
experience. The space is thoughtfully prepared for a deeper inner journey. Lighting is soft and low, and the group is intentionally small to create a sense of intimacy, safety, and trust, allowing everyone to move at their own pace. No dance experience needed — just a willingness to explore. Spaces are limited. Facilitated by Julianne Rose – NZAC Counsellor and Meditation Coach.
