Rongoā Mauri Healing

Rongoā Mauri Healing ACC Registered - VBB958

www.rongoamauri.com Kia ora, I’m a Rongoā Māori healer based in West Auckland and the founder of Rongoā Mauri.

Healing ourselves is integral to the mauri of Papatūānuku.​

Through Rongoā Māori, we are able to heal & transform, embodying our spiritual connection with Papatūānuku. Our practice supports the healing of body, mind, and wairua by working in deep relationship with the native plants of Aotearoa. Rongoā Mauri is ACC Registered for Rongoā Māori services. We specialise in traditional plant medicine—harvesting, preparing, and sharing remedies passed down through generations. Each remedy carries the mauri (life force) of the ngahere and the wisdom of our tūpuna. We offer wānanga, workshops, and community learning spaces where people can reconnect with rongoā and restore balance. If you’re interested in bringing a Rongoā Mauri Trail or workshop to your workplace or community, we’d love to hear from you. You can also experience the healing power of Rongoā Māori through personalised online consultations. Guided by tikanga and the ancient intelligence of native plants, these sessions support holistic wellbeing—addressing stress, anxiety, trauma, and spiritual disconnection through therapeutic kōrero and intuitive guidance. Custom-made rongoā products, such as balms, teas, or tinctures, can also be created and shipped directly to you. Online sessions available globally. Joanne Hakaraia

If the whenua responds to those who live upon it, and the plants that grow abundantly are offering rongoā for balance, how might we understand this when our home is also a healing practice? Are the plants growing in response to my own whānau – or to the collective needs of all who pass through this space? He aha tou whakaaro? Id love to hear your thoughts in the comments xx

The trees, plants and the flowers are all expressions of Papatūānuku or Earth Mother. They carry her state of being. When they are vibrant and healthy, she is vibrant and healthy. And every time – without fail – when I am in the maara, weeding, tending the soil, I receive insights and ideas. She speaks. she shows us how to care for her – how to nourish the soil, what to leave in the ground, what to disturb and what to protect. When we slow down and place our hands in the Earth, we begin to listen differently. The land is not silent. It is always communicating.

We are in the light of Te takanga o te Rā (Solstice). This is a significant time as we observe Te Rā make his move from the Atua of Summer, Hineraumati, and begin his gradual return to the Atua of Winter, Hinetakurua. As the earth warms and becomes ready for our maara, we too are primed for growth. The preparation of your maara during the cooler seasons will be showing the results.

You may find yourself clearing and cleaning your whare with a bit more rigour. The feeling of spatial cleanliness to herald new frequencies of light. Are you preparing to create? Re-create? Design and colour?

And to observe the flowering of Pōhutukawa just adds another dimension. The energy is rising but on the inside. For me, I'm feeling it internally but have no desire to be outside except early mornings and early evenings. The birds know, I follow them.

Te Waka Rākau Charitable Trust

Te Waka Rākau is founded on the traditional practice of Rongoā Māori. Our kaupapa is to protect the mana of our natural resources, the mauri of the whenua and the well-being of wāhine and their whanau.​

Rongoā Māori (Traditional Māori Healing) is a powerful health system. It is a science of life and offers a body of wisdom designed to help people stay vibrant and healthy while realising their full potential.

Te Waka Rākau are dedicated to improving health and well-being, cultivating spiritual knowledge and expanding consciousness by sharing the beauty and magic of rākau (plants).

We offer wānanga and workshops on Rongoā Rākau. We teach the medicinal properties of plants but also guide you in understanding the wairua of rākau.
