🌿 Wellbeing Forecast – Mutuwhenua 🌿

We discuss how connecting with the land (whenua) can help reduce stress and inflammation by supporting the body to release natural antioxidants. During Mutuwhenua, the darkest and most settling phase of the Maramataka, grounding becomes especially powerful.

This is a time when your body naturally slows down, resets, and prepares for the new cycle ahead. Placing bare skin directly on the earth — soil, grass, sand, or stone — can help calm the nervous system, settle sensory overload, and restore emotional balance.

✨ Why grounding is powerful in Mutuwhenua:
• Helps release built-up stress from the body
• Supports emotional regulation during low-energy phases
• Reduces inflammation and tension
• Restores connection to self, whenua, and natural cycles
• Encourages deep rest and reset before the new moon

Tip: Keep it simple — sit, stand, or lie on the ground. Breathe slowly. Let the whenua hold you.

This is the phase for healing, emptying out, and returning to your centre before new beginnings arrive.
