SEA URCHIN / KINA - now that the holidays are over, this pounamu piece feels like the right one to start sharing for the year.

🟢 Do you have a tough exterior and a soft inside? The sea urchin will teach this balance of rough and tender. The kina’s spiky exterior can symbolize protection and resilience, reminding us of the strength found in facing life’s challenges. It can connect us to nature, giving the feeling of endurance. Its five-petal pattern can represent harmony.

In my interpretation, the urchin is also a symbol of fertility. It embodies virgin beauty, associated with flowers—the organs of the land. Sea Urchins are the organs of the sea. They are often associated with the ocean, symbolizing sustenance and the abundance of life it provides.

🖤 This piece was carved a few years ago as a commission piece to commemorate a dog called Kina.
Thanks, Eszter - Jade Pebble

Yaaas!! who wants to help me build it 🤣

That’s an Earthship.
It’s not just a house.
It’s a machine designed to set you free.
Built from recycled tires, bottles, and dirt, it catches its own water from the sky, grows food inside its walls year-round, treats its own waste, and keeps you warm with nothing but the sun’s energy and the planet’s thermal mass.
The magic isn’t the recycled materials.
The magic is that every system obeys nature’s principles:
Water falls from the sky → harvest it
The sun rises every day → use it
Plants clean water and air → integrate them
Earth stays a constant temperature → sink into it
When your home runs on the same rules the planet already uses, you stop fighting nature and start dancing with it.
An Earthship isn’t about “living off-grid.”
It’s about living ON-planet — the way life was always meant to.
Freedom isn’t owning less.
Freedom is depending on less that can be taken away.
Build one. Live in one. Feel what it’s like when your shelter no longer controls you… but liberates you instead.
🌍🏠💚

Look what stored trauma can do... A Romiromi will clear it and get things flowing again with ease 🌊 Call or PM me to book in whaanau. Leave this year where it is and step into 2026 fresh & G2G 🌻

Everyone is starting to realize how important fascia is when it comes to training the body, but most people still underestimate how deeply it influences movement.

Hydrated fascia behaves very differently, down to the cellular level. Not only does it participate in bioelectric signaling, it also plays a major role in how much range of motion your body can access during exercise. When this tissue is loaded correctly, it becomes elastic and responsive. Your muscles coordinate better, your posture improves, and energy becomes more stable because your body isn’t fighting itself to move.

When this tissue loses its elasticity and structural organization, your body begins moving in ways that increase tension, stiffness, and joint stress in the wrong areas. This is when people start experiencing the movement degradation that eventually leads to pain. Hydration in the body isn’t just about drinking more water. It depends on restoring the mechanical conditions that allow fluid to move through your tissue with minimal friction.

The visual on the left is exactly what we help you overcome through our training. This is what you see in the transformations we help people achieve, where their bodies begin to look more viscoelastic and full.

If you want to improve your movement, you not only need to strengthen the muscles that are weak, you also need to build the mechanics that distribute tension efficiently throughout your fascial system. The quality of your movement determines the quality of your tissue.
