Alot ask how I look after myself in this mahi? 🌿

Truthfully… I think it helps that I absolutely love what I do. Not being a skite or anything, but some jobs I’ve had literally sucked the life outta me.

In this mahi I get to help people, learn every day, and witness some pretty beautiful moments.

But this mahi also takes alot energetically, physically and spiritually — so these are some of the things that keep me grounded:

• Karakia — before mahi, after mahi, when I wake, before sleep. Sometimes 10 times a day. It keeps me connected to Io, atua, tipuna and wairua. The more intentional you become with it, the more you notice your whole day shifts.

• Bath - If I'm not in the Moana, I'm usually in the bath with Magnesium. Keeps the nervous system, Muscles and Mind tau.

• Gratitude — sounds simple, but it changes everything. Giving love to the small things slows life down.

• Moana — my biggest healer. This is where I whakawātea. It clears energy that isn’t mine, eases physical pain and fills my cup back up when mauri feels low. The ocean has taught me more than most things in life.

• Qi Gong — honestly one of the biggest game changers for me. Sore back? Heavy head? Flat energy? 10 minutes and your whole body feels different.

• Bodywork — something I need to get more regularly 😂 but every time I do, it feels like I return back to myself. Lighter, freer, clearer.

• Kaupapa Māori supervision — a must in this mahi. Keeps me tika and gives me space to process the harder parts of the mahi. Very lucky to have an experienced wahine tautoko me.

• Hīkoi — walking clears my hinengaro. An active mind needs regular walks. Stress relief, processing and endorphins all in one.

• Mahi rākau — body stick work. Sounds painful… because sometimes it is 😂 but it teaches the body how to release. So good once you get used to it.

• Solitude — probably the biggest one. This mahi isn’t just physical. You’re working with people through wairua, hinengaro, tinana and whānau. So when I’m not working, I’m usually resting, creating, planning or just blobbing out.

Rongoā Māori isn’t really just a job to me.

It’s a way of living. 🌿

Good mahi on the feet can help the rest of the body.
Flow is everything.

The organs can receive mirimiri through the feet.
The ovaries.
The spine.
The nervous system.
Stored tension.
Grounding.

Think of it as looking after your stability and ability to move forward in life with mana.

Here’s what I do to look after my waewae:

👣 Stand and work my feet on a stick (mahirākau — even better if guided properly with Atarangi Muru)

👣 Balm + Bathe
The feet hold some of the biggest pores on the tinana. That’s why soaking or applying magnesium here can sometimes bring relief a huge amount of relief. Especially with Sleep and Nervous System!

👣 Walk barefoot on the beach
If it hurts… you probably need it more 😉

👣 Receive bodywork
Not to sell you something — but because we can’t always shift everything on our own. A second pair of hands, good intention and proper bodywork can support existing illness, tension and stress before it becomes something bigger.

Your feet carry your whole world.
Look after them. 💚

The cup is overflowing.

One of the most engaging, fun and informative trainings on bettering practice while still upholding the mana of our taonga — Rongoā Māori.

Donna Kerridge is a humble rangatira in this space. Straight up, hilarious, deeply knowledgeable — had us laughing one minute and reflecting the next. Her team were just as awesome.

Heard from MWDI, IRD Wāhine, Poutama Trust and sat alongside 40+ others all filling the kete.

Connections made.
Spaces opened.
Mātauranga to thrive forward.

Grateful for a very full belly of boil up, the BEST cheese scones 😮‍🔥 and one of the warmest pōwhiri — ataahua mana whenua.

Left humbled, inspired, and realising ACC and IRD can be our mates not neccessarily the enemy 🤣🙌

Arohanui to those paving the way for all of us comming through and protecting our taonga.

Grateful as 💚

Training to fill up the kete

Two trainings, one week.
One with Donna Kerridge — learning how to navigate business as a rongoā Māori practitioner.
The other — Mahi Wairua studies (Matakitetanga).

Noone ever tells you what the journey of learning rongoā Māori is like — Māori medicine. Maybe because there is no set path.

It’s vast. It’s a completely different way of looking at hauora — the whole of you.

One side I don’t speak on heaps is the wairuatanga side. The “spiritual” — I don’t really like that word, it’s been overused and misunderstood. Bastardised. But at its core, it’s actually simple and practical.

It’s awareness.
It’s how you show up.
It’s your intent.
It’s knowing when you’re off balance — and doing something about it.
It’s energy.

We call it matakitetanga — the ability to mahi within the unseen. But in real life, that can look like:

– reading the room, the body, and the person
– knowing what you’re feeling — is it mine or someone else’s?
– recognising when you’re absorbing vs when you’re able to shift and move it on

This mahi doesn’t switch off. You’ve got to manage yourself a lot to make sure you’re not coming from an imbalanced place.

It’s simple — but far from easy.
It might sound cool, but there’s been many times I’ve broken in this mahi.

Mana motuhake — self-determination — is constant work. You never “make it”. There’s always more to learn, ways to tighten yourself up, and deepen your practice.

For me, attending this rongoā practitioner business training is huge:

1. There are next to none offered in the South.

2. The common business model doesn’t fit rongoā Māori.

3. It means I can keep autonomy in how I practice.

Grateful for this — and excited to head over to Port Levy. Never been that way before.

After one wānanga, onto the next —
Mahi Wairua Wānanga 💚
