Following the Maramataka, the Māori lunar calendar, is an important part of my practice when gathering the native plants to make my Kawakawa balms. Heeni's workshops and resources have played an huge role in my learning and understanding of Maramataka. It's incredibly sad to hear she is yet again having to go in to battle with cancer and she desperately needs funds to help her in this fight. Head to her GiveALittle page for more info - any contribution will be welcomed 🌿

To help raise funds for unfunded treatment, Keytruda, an immunotherapy drug

🌿 Kawakawa Skin Balm 🌿 Kawakawa Baby Balm 🌿 Lip Balm 🌿

🌿 The Kawakawa Skin Balm is 100% Natural, using gentle oils (Sunflower & Coconut) infused with Kawakawa leaves. A drop of Mānuka essential oil is added, to super-boost the healing properties, and then beeswax, to form a balm ideal for topical skin issues... From cuts and grazes to tattoo/ta moko aftercare, old wounds & scarring, this balm has also also been effective in easing skin conditions such as eczema & psoriasis. (Please patch test - every 'body' is different!)
🌿 The Kawakawa Baby Balm is recommended for children under 12 months old and for anyone with more sensitive skin...it is a gentler mix that leaves out the essential oil and adding in some Koromiko leaves with the Kawakawa...Koromiko has lovely fluffy flower spikes and was used traditionally for baby's skin healing. This balm is useful to ease and prevent nappy rash, cradle cap, baby eczema etc and for use in baby massage, or even a face cream for Mum 🌿

Two jar sizes 60ml $20 and 120ml $35

🌿 Kawakawa Lip Balm comes in a 10ml cardboard tube for just $5
Based on the Baby Balm, a lovely moisturising mix of oils infused with the healing properties of Kawakawa and Koromiko, with beeswax 🌿

• Rapid repair of fractures and broken bones • Sprains and strains • Bruising • Deep bone and muscular pain • Tendon and nerve pain • Pulled muscles and ligaments • Arthritic & rheumatic joint pain & swelling • Gout • Varicose and swollen veins etc 🌿

Tūpākihi is a New Zealand native plant, traditionally used by Māori to ease pain, and to heal broken or fractured bones. It has potent anti-inflammatory properties, helps to improve blood circulation and is an effective analgesic (pain reliever).

Awaken Therapies combines the healing properties of these two amazing plants by infusing them into gentle oils (great for massage or mirimiri) and then adding some NZ beeswax to create an easily absorbed balm.
