Hey… Have You Heard of Havening?

Lao Tzu

Releasing trauma is the process to get us to embodying Te Ao Marama.

Born to shine, to find our innate gifts/ superpowers, and work doing the things that energise us.

“When I let go of what I am I become what I might be.”

Whanau “tribe”

connection, community, family & support
