I don't know if you caught the story over the weekend - Ngāpuhi, the iwi of Northland, are calling for police to round up the drug dealers in Northland using the same strong tactics they used in drug raids on Ōpōtiki last year. You'll remember there was criticism of how the police dealt with some of the individuals in Ōpōtiki, mainly coming from the individuals and their families themselves. Now Ngāpuhi is saying bring it on. The leader of the country's largest iwi, Mane Tahere, said he asked the Police Minister for decisive action after recently seeing a group of youngsters smoking a meth pipe in broad daylight in the Main Street of Kaikohe, just down the road from the police station. As somebody who has been going to the Far North for the past eight or nine years, I've certainly seen a change for the worse in Kaihohe. There are tiny little fragile grass shoots of hope, but the meth is a huge problem there, an absolutely huge problem. Locals in Opononi stand outside the local dairy, the local shops on benefit day to try and stop the dealers from getting to the kids first. The community is trying to do what it can to stop the dealers getting a strong hold in the community, to try and thwart their attempts to get more young people hooked on the drug. But they are a tiny, tiny, tiny bastion against what is a multimillion-dollar business. The cold, harsh reality is that Northland has the highest consumption of methamphetamine in New Zealand. Nearly 2000milligrammes per day consumed per 1000 people. And Mane Tahere has said we are doing what we can as a community, as an iwi, as a people but we can't do it on our own and we need the police to step in. He said a crackdown isn't the solution to all problems in Northland but it's a major part. He knows he is calling down a whole heap of criticism on his head by asking the police to step in, but he says our hard, staunch kind of hate for the police is not the future. Compare his pragmatic, proactive hard line on drugs with the words of Green MP Tamatha Paul. You'll remember she criticised Wellington's beat patrols. She accused the police of rounding up the homeless, without providing any evidence other than the musings of a couple of street people themselves. She said some people felt less safe because of the police's presence. Right. This is a very bright young woman, Tamatha Paul has won numerous scholarships for academic excellence. She has graduated with the Masters in Resource and Environmental Planning. This is a very bright young woman talking to other very bright young people on a university campus, postulating and theorising and coming up with all sorts of grand plans about how a different world could look, and that's what you do at a university when you're young, when you're bright, when you've got all the answers, when you're at a peace action conference. You have the luxury of theorising. I would venture to suggest most of the young people there were just like Tamatha Paul. They may not have started in a world of privilege, but they've taken the opportunities offered to them, they've worked to realise a future for themselves. And that's a future that looks very, very different to the lives of the same young people in Kaikohe. The sort of people that Mane Tahere is trying to help every single day. He knows to combat the absolute evil of drugs, his people don't need to read another thesis on colonisation, Hauora and whenua in Aotearoa published in 2019, among many. He knows what they need are not the academics, but addiction and rehab specialists. They need to keep up that community involvement, that community fight against the drugs. And they desperately, desperately need police boots on the ground. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A recent report by the Education Review Office painted a grim picture of student behaviour - saying violent and disruptive behaviour in schools has reached critical levels. Half the teachers surveyed said the problem has become worse in the past two years, and half say they are spending nearly an hour a day dealing with bad behaviour. The Education Review Office says the trend is harming children's learning, and schools need to take a nationally consistent approach to addressing it. The approach it favours is called PB4L, which stands for Positive Behavior for Learning. But a group of teachers in Porirua East who work with students with high levels of dysregulated behaviour say ERO is promoting ineffective, outdated practices. They say teachers need to understand the neuroscience that underpins behavior and stress, and its programme 'Hauora' is working.

The CEO of a harm prevention services provider has slammed a food retailer caught selling alcohol for 67 cents a can. Pak 'n Save New Plymouth is under fire for marketing $3.99 six-packs, but Foodstuffs North Island say the beer was priced wrongly and it's since been corrected. Hapai Te Hauora CEO Selah Hart says mental health issues are a major problem, and this exploits families suffering at the hands of addiction. "You know who that's targeted to, it's not to those that can manage their drinking in a way that is helpful or sustainable. We're actually looking at those families who cannot control their drinking behaviours and therefore can not move past these really attractive signs."

There's a feeling of a mood shift in our country's approach to alcohol. A petition is being presented to Parliament this afternoon, backing Chlöe Swarbrick's Alcohol Harm Minimisation Bill looking to ban alcohol advertising and sponsorship in broadcast sport . More than 8,000 people have signed their name in support, from 115 organisations. Hapai Te Hauora Chief Executive Selah Hart told Mike Hosking they usually struggle for signatures on these issues due to the normalisation of alcohol in Aotearoa. She says it demonstrates a want and need for change, from communities who are picking up the mess from the harm of alcohol. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the first episode, Johnny talks to Billie Rogers. A bit of a local legend, as the kick-ass bass player in the New Zealand band Street Chant, Billie is one of a select few who has won the prestigious Taite Music Prize. This was awarded to the band in 2017 for their second album, Hauora. These days, Billie can be found at Auckland's glorious Hollywood Avondale, where she is the venue manager, dealing with all their many film screenings and also their music concerts. Our conversation was recorded at the Hollywood, in early August of 2022, and covers many subjects including Baz Luhrmann, Tom Cruise, Michael Keaton, Quentin Tarantino, John Hughes films, and of course I asked her about her band Street Chant, and opening for the Lemonheads among other things.

We need to create a culture that promotes teaming to navigate the ever-changing world and unpredicted challenges; 3 – Look back to understand where you're going. Note all the good in your buildup…it can help reveal your progress, to drive you on to new heights Thanks for listening and as always please rate, review, and share.

Pinky Promise is about making pinky promises with themselves and each other to make sure they self-care and look out for oneanother and their wellness, paying attention to the Māori philosophy of the four pou of Hau Ora, Hinengaro (Mentalwellbeing) Taha Wairua (spiritual wellbeing), Taha Tinana (Exercise & physical health), Taha whanau (Social wellbeing relationships and friendships). Taha hinengaro (mental and emotional wellbeing)Taha hinengaro is your mind, heart, conscience, thoughts and feelings. It's about how you feel, as well as how you communicate and think. Taking care of taha hinengaro is important for everyone, regardless of whether or not you've experienced mental illness or distress.   When taha hinengaro is strong, you can better cope with life's challenges. You can express your feelings and reach out for support from friends, whānau and hoamahi (colleagues) if you need to.   Some surprising lifestyle choices can get in the way of having healthy taha hinengaro. For example, what you eat affects your taha hinengaro. Eating some foods can improve your mood and mental wellbeing, while other foods can have a negative impact on how you feel. That means you can improve your taha hinengaro by making small changes to your diet. (And luckily, the same eating habits that keep you mentally well are those that support your taha tinana too.) Find out more about food and mood.   How much you move also affects your taha hinengaro. Physical activity not only appears to reduce the symptoms and frequency of depression but, better still, reduces the risk of becoming depressed at all! Read more about how physical activity affects mental health.   Drinking alcohol can lift your mood with the first glass, but too much alcohol too often can be a downer for taha hinengaro. Find out how alcohol affects your brain and mood.   Learning how to manage stress also supports taha hinengaro. Stress is your body's natural reaction to a threat or an excess demand. Some stress is good for you and helps motivate you to get something done. But when you are under too much stress for too long, it affects your taha hinengaro. Learning how to manage stress is a key life skill. Find out more about managing stress in your life generally and managing stress at work.   What small step would you like to take to improve your taha hinengaro?
