Mindful Mover was born after the Christchurch earthquake, the anxiety and stress caused by the continuous rattling. From there it's grown to help young people dealing with bullying, troubles at home, and learning difficulties.
University of Canterbury's Professor David Schiel is looking at how biological habitats are responding and recovering along the approximately 130km of coastline effected by November's magnitude 7.8 earthquakes. He wants people who are riding quad bikes over the newly uplifted land to be mindful of the possible consequences on the bird and sea life living there.
