16 Guidelines workshop

Written By Kim Manunui

The Youth In Transition crew along with some extras recently joined for a learning experience in the Coromandel at the beautiful Mahamudra centre. The stress and worries of Auckland felt a long way away and the friendly volunteers made for a beautiful weekend.

Ven. Khadro’s guided us through a condensed version of Buddhist philosophy. The 16 guidelines book provided our group with thought-provoking material for discussion and reflection. We had a rich group of thoughtful and creative people and as Khadro put it “there aren’t many people in the world talking about this stuff”.

We all took different things away with us “I have left this retreat with a deeper understanding of the values the 16 Guidelines teach us, a deeper connection to my spirituality and acceptance of myself and others” Youth mentor Sam Nairn commented. I don’t think anyone would disagree.

Youth in Transition is grateful for the opportunity to strengthen our understanding of the values we want to aspire to as taught in the 16 Guidelines.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
