Menopause support from peri-post menopause with symptom relief through nutrition, sleep strategies, relaxation, yoga & more... Yogi Explorerz is owned by Chrissie McNeill who is incredibly passionate about the benefits of teaching yoga to adults and children. I have been practicing Yoga for over 18 years and am a Certified Kids Yoga Teacher through Rainbow Yoga. I have also completed my 200hr Tea

cher Training (Yoga Alliance certified) at Kawai Purpura and Restorative Yoga & Yoga Nidra 150hrs at Anahata Yoga Retreat Centre. I have been teaching yoga for over 7 years. Registered Nurse for over 29 years and currently work with age 4- 13 year old children, their Whanau and schools. Work in collaboration to support/manage children’s health concerns benefiting their wellbeing. I have a Post Graduate Certificate in wellness and believe connection, gratitude and compassion are some key components to living a healthy, happy and balanced life. After having breast cancer at the age of 33 I realised how important my wellbeing was to live a happy, healthy and content life. This is when my yoga practice deepened, reducing my stress levels, nourishing my depleted body and slowing down my thoughts. Following my cancer treatment my marriage ended and I heavily relied on my breathing exercises (pranayama), meditation and asana's to get through this tough time. I fully endorse yoga as not only a practice but way of life. My knowledge and experience of yoga practices is rooted in Satyananda Yoga. It practices yoga in a traditional way, asanas (postures) to balance the body and mind through the physical body, pranayama (breathing practices) to work on the energy body (equated with Ki or Chi in other systems), and meditation to calm and focus the mind. My classes are gentle and suitable for those new to yoga, suffering from injuries and those who would like to relax and give their body a good stretch without exerting themselves too much. My students age between 30's up to 70's, there's no barriers to practicing yoga with me. Benefits of practicing yoga:
• Enhances strength and flexibility and improves co-ordination and
balance.
• Promotes better posture and joint mobility.
• Boosts self-esteem and improves mental health and sleep.
• Helps manage stress and anxiety through breathing, relaxation,
mindfulness and meditation.
• May reduce inflammation and boost immunity.
• Can both calm and energise your body.

Gemma will be having a pop up clinic this Friday 7th August 10am - 2pm.

30 minute Emotions & Metaphysical Kinesiology 'taster' sessions!!! In exchange for $20, food or other means accepted.

Here is a little about Gemma ...

"Kia Ora, Hi, my name is Gemma.

I practice Emotions and Metaphysical Kinesiology, a gentle approach to exploring emotions that may be stuck, suppressed, or out of balance.

I also incorporate Healing Touch techniques into my sessions as well as drawing on the breadth of knowledge and experience, I’ve gained through nursing, to support each individual holistically.
Life can be stressful—how we respond whether, learned or habitual, makes a significant impact on our overall wellbeing.

If you’re ready to make a change, I invite you to explore how energy therapy & talk therapy can support you."

If you are keen to book in for this, you may contact Gemma at Gem of Wellness otherwise, just call in and see what it's all about!

Gemma is looking to join us on Fridays here at The Zen Space - Holistic Hub so pop up and have a try!

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL DAY OF YOGA
Bihar School of Yoga (tradition I trained in) has released a program for the International Day of Yoga 2026. Bihar School of Yoga dedicates the year 2026 to the development of two qualities: dayaluta or kindness, and santosha or contentment. They mention that the world is in great need of kindness, of gentle expressions of kindness towards our fellow beings and our natural
environment. Along with kindness, santosha or contentment
develops a sense of calm acceptance and inner peace.
The complete program with these two themes is presented online on their website:
https://www.biharyoga.net/yoga-for-everyone-new

They hope that all will be inspired to adopt yoga as a lifestyle and lead healthy, happy, and harmonious lives.
