And as I lean deeper into myself and the way that I show up in my life and the way I serve community, there is a change, a death and a rebirth and thus I close the doors of Waiotu and open the heart of Taatou Taatou Tradtional Māori Healing.

I have been practicing Romiromi for nearly 10 years now, and am grateful to say that I am now an acc registered practitioner, sharing in Waitakere, West Auckland, on the ancestral lands of Te Kawerau a Maki.

This is a sharing from my website that shows the direction that I am honoured and grateful to be moving with: We are rongoaa, we are medicine, it is in our bones, our blood, our body, and all around us. We are made up of the same wisdom as the sun, the moon, the stars, the forests, the rivers, and the dirt. There is a natural design that we are all a part of (sacred geometry) and we are meant to move with this rhythm, connected to the maramataka- cycles and patterns- of nature.

Our bodies carry this knowing and are waiting and ready for us to remember. We have fogotten, due to conditioning, due to life’s experiences, but it is time for us to remember. Mirimiri and Romiromi can help to bring to the surface and shift the “new” memories, that we may have been carrying for years, or even lifetimes, creating space for us to return to the natural design.

My new webiste is https://taatoutaatou.co.nz/ and you'll have to type this directly into the address bar (not google) as I learn more about SEO.

Ngā mihi to those who have walked with me on this journey, from near and afar, may we ignite each other's wisdom so that we may carry it with integrity and beauty.

This is from an interview with Atarangi Muru , Ngati Kuri Tohunga Romiromi

‘Mirimiri (Mi - to stimulate, Ri - to agitate the bone), where the intuitive skills of a practitioner are on high beam, as well as their ability to 'read' the dents, curves, lines, marks, and dimples of a body. During the process of mirimiri the practitioner explores the body to discern where healing is needed. Even though they have spoken to the person (client), the healers are looking for the unspoken, the unknown, or the forgotten.

In the process of one's session a multitude of informational exchanges are happening between one's body and the 'knowing and understanding' of the healer. These messages can be in the form of; a taste (bitter, sweet, salty, acidic), a smell, a feeling (hot, cold, warm, icy, wet, dry), a sense (goosebumps, chills, hair standing on the back of the neck) and the healer's intuition. So calling for the the wisdom within nga kete o te wananga (knowledge codes) stored within the body, the practitioner works with a client to activate the processes that miri (re-generate vibrant energy).

Where deep tissue bodywork is required romiromi is activated. To romi is to: Ro - to work, (internals: organs, blood, tissue, muscle etc), Mi - to stimulate the Ha (breath) within the body to move obstacles created. Both of these modalities are symbiotic, they live and play hand in hand.

Often people will breathe a lot deeper than normal, this is how we open the access ways to getting in deeper.

The healing modalities Atarangi and Manu use are beyond the tissue, they pe*****te the bone and pierce the cellular memory that has been stored, held, traumatised, depleted, under nourished.

Romiromi may involve the use of elbows, hands, knees, feet, sticks, stones and sea water. More than one practitioner at a time may also work on a client.

During a session deep held emotions may be brought to the surface. These emotional experiences are behind all physical, psychological or mental ailments. Activating the whatu-manawa (eye of the heart) helps the practitioner identify specific toxic issues that dis-able, dis-empower and keep dis-cord running.

As these issues surface the practitioner will whaka watea (clear space) to allow for whole healing and transformation.

"Healing is embedded deep within the self. All those who have been, who have come and are yet to be, are the reasons why we do what we do."- Atarangi Muru
