Last week I walked along a beautiful pathway to take my mokoboy to his waka ama practice. All these beautiful plants popped out of the scenery everywhere ❣️❣️

I thought to myself, we live in the most beautiful place on earth here in little old Aotearoa NZ💯💯

My beautiful mokogirls photo taken 6 years ago today. They loved helping Nana with our Kawakawa infusions.

Each of our Kawakawa creations are named after all my now 6 mokopuna, my kuia, my nanny, my mum and myself. I'm still experimenting with my children's infusions🥰🥰

On Anzac day I was privileged to present at our 28 Māori Battalion hall in Papaioea. The story of my 4 koro( dad's dad & mum's side) who fought in WWII ( Koro Joseph Nepata is buried overseas) and throughout the presentation I spoke about their whare tapawha overseas and when they returned to alcohol, racism, lost land, no support, PTSD 😭😭.

One thing I love about this model is its simplicity to help people reflect, identify and plan their health and wellness no matter what age ❣️❣️❣️

How's your whare tapawha ?

****UPDATE**** Great turnout after Easter weekend. About 15+ tamariki & a few caregivers enjoyed experimenting & taking home Kōwhai and Takoha oils for coughs and colds, and stings and bites ❣️❣️

See you all on Tuesday 22nd April at Waipukurau Library. There are limited spaces so please come before 10.30am to avoid disappointment.

Ps if your tāmariki or mokopuna have already made an oil infusion at our previous workshops, please get them to bring these along so we can turn them into beautiful body oils for the whole whānau. Mauriaroha xx
