Rongo Ora

I heard something that resonates.

‘Don’t think of the relationship as over, think of it as complete’

Relationships, friendships, whanau whatever it is. Some things just run its course

Pure 🌊

I found something I wrote after a Pure I had in the ocean one time.

It was going on dark, it was freezing and it was a full moon. Pure is something I’ve been doing the past few years 1-2 times per year. It’s usually not something I plan but it’s naturally become a regular thing within the mahi I do and powerful when done with a collective.

‘ Under the light of the glowing moon,
The Tohora called,
Papatuanuku vibrated below,
The push and pull of Hine Moana,
Stillness in the hinengaro

Whanaungatanga- Wairua- Waatea

Tuku, Tuku, Tuku the Puumanawa’

Pure is a hearty cleanse, a way to tuku, to let go, let go of the weight of everything you’re holding and let go of the materialism.

A good kōrero I’m grateful to have heard was that it was a practise to cleanse, to clear some of our organs that had picked up trauma. Much kōrero going back to the womb space and back to IO ✨

The Taiao 🌿✨
Rongoā Māori 🌱💚
The natural world

So many people think Rongoā Māori is all Romiromi/ Mirimiri and those pretty packaged rongoā you buy.

…….. For me it starts back in the Taiao. On the whenua. Home. The Moana. The Awa. The Ngahere. The silence. The connection back to nature is the Rongoā in finding who you really are. It’s where the healing begins.

I couldnt do the mahi I do without the connection back to the whenua.

I was in the Ocean and the River today.

Bliss.

What a way to settle the wairua ✨🌿
