Good morning everyone. Great view through the ‘jungle’ out to the Hannah’s Laneway and the blue sky above. #AtaMārie #UrbanGarden

Hōkio garden. Great place for a meditative morning.

Have just finished my first virtual meditative “retreat” with the [Waking Up](https://www.wakingup.com) app & program. 6 hours of guided silent meditation; including (thankfully!) segments of walking meditation. I will be interested to see how this echos in days to come.

An oasis in the city. Gardens, seats, trees, and the Bucket Fountain. Cuba Street, Pōneke, Aotearoa. Well done, WCC.
