The word Manawa represents the fourth Huna principle: Now is the moment of power. The seeds of the future are planted now. Your energy, your decisions happen now. It is little wonder that the word Manawa in Maori also refers to the heart; the essence from which we all proceed into the world. With Manawa Moment I invite you to take part in the ancient temple ritual Lomi Lomi called Lomi Ke Ala Hoku
. The unique form of spiritual bodywork which included movement, chanting and prayer to experience flow and alignment with your intensions. Lomi Ke Ala Hoku literally translates as “the pathway to the stars.” This form of bodywork provides a perfect way to approach a moment of transition, transformation or cleansing. The massage is both vigorous and relaxing, inviting you to relax your mind and let go of the thoughts or feelings holding you back. Each person brings their own “script” to the table so you should plan between one and a half and two hours. Using long body forearm and hand strokes, you will feel transported to a deep level of relaxation. Connecting with your core energy and proceeding from your centre. I have been giving massages from the age of four. In the old tradition I started in the family (being the youngest) and have grown my knowledge and insight over the years through travel and formal training. The specific style I practice comes from the house of Kahu Abraham and is influenced with the ayurvedic practices of Andreas Schwarz and the Thai massage training of Chiang Mai. Feel free to give me a call and we can discuss what you should expect and how best to prepare for your sessions.
