Herbs and Herbaliser are not just cool bands, they are natural remedies you can grow in your own backyard – ranging from Aotearoa’s native rongoā to folk herbals. The plant world has been offering its support to benefit human health for centuries. Animals also eat their way to health through their native ecosystems; this is known as zoopharmacognosy.
There are more reasons than ever to think about ethical and environmentally conscious shopping as the impacts of climate change give us pause to think about the food we buy.
The concept of Eldership is implicit in many indigenous cultures. The word invokes images of age, wisdom and often a connection to the spirit world or some form of other reality.
Dive Zone Whitianga, situated in the magnificent Mercury Bay, is the hub of diving knowledge and offers a gateway to outstanding dive locations on the Coromandel Peninsula.
And that’s where good listening comes in. A good listener will firstly attend carefully to hear the information (or lack of it) at all three levels, then feed back or reflect what is and isn’t being heard. This can then help the talker to fill in the gaps and build a clearer picture of the situation or expand it for themselves. This is the great thing about good listening: you don’t have to solve the problem, but you can help the talker solve it for themselves.
