    Cultivating home, as a state of being

    A reframing of the idea that we “come back home to ourselves” when we embark on doing the work, on unbecoming what we’re not and releasing beliefs (our own, from others) we've simply outgrown. What if we were always home - always in a safe, loving, nurturing warm place? What if we cultivated that in ourselves so that as we explore and express and release emotions, behaviours, beliefs, expectations etc. we know we are safe. Free of judgement, condemnation, timeframes and 'shoulda woulda couldas.' ?

Whakarongo mai!

    Pūrākau Principles Monthly Q&A - Apr'22

    Look at us, publishing on time and when we said we would! Ha. This month’s Q&A is another ‘one take wonder’ with just a couple of comfortable silences.. the questions I attempt to answer in this wānanga are around alternative interpretations for the “he aha te mea nui o te ao..” whakatauāki, changes to my philosophies or ideas since becoming a māmā, empowering wāhine and creating content in te reo Māori. Whakarongo mai!
