Te Ao Marama: The Sacred Path of the Warrior
Paora Te Oti Takarangi
Embracing Hope and Fear – ‘Hope and Fear have no basis in an external reality; it is fabrication of the mind’. The last few years in particular have been very challenging for people globally, therefore the intention here is to create a workshop in a supportive and relaxed environment, to become grounded and refreshed going into 2024.
What will you come away with from attending the workshop?
1. A sense of confidence to be able to deal with hope and fear;
2. A sense of confidence to remain in connection and intimacy with others and the natural elemental world;
3. A sense of lightness and joy.
What to expect: The workshop is experiential and intended to provide a combination of knowledge, skills and sharing. There will be a focus on coordinating the breath with presence and understanding one’s relationship to the elemental world. In this regard, both Māori and Tibetan wisdom is combined to bring about a greater sense of connection and intimacy with the five elements and Ngā Kaitiaki (Guardians).
