Te Puna Retreat March 2023
Te Hokinga Mai encompasses everything you could want in a hybrid transformation journey.
Our online wānanga provide the foundation—grounding you in your identity, challenging the beliefs, behaviours, and patterns that no longer serve you, and equipping you with practical tools to strengthen your emotional and relational intelligence.
Our retreats are an experience unlike any other. Through full immersion, we come together in person to deepen our learning, embody our insights, and explore a range of modalities that awaken more of our authentic expression.
This is where knowledge becomes lived experience & wisdom.
Te Hokinga Mai is a space of empowerment, healing, connection, and trust. More than a programme, it is a journey home to yourself—one that creates a ripple effect extending far beyond these six weeks and into every area of your life.
Te Hokinga Mai emphasises that our return to self is not only for the individual but for the whānau and community that each of us interacts with.
We know this space will powerfully impact the present time you are in and generations to come.
MY INTENTION
AS YOUR KAIWHAKARURUHAU
To guide and honour your journey and provide you with a space to learn, heal, grow and return to more of your true, authentic expression.
The space we create within Te Hokinga Mai, alongside the incredible humans who will support and facilitate our retreat, is designed to feel like coming home.
A space that is safe, warm, and held with deep intention. A space free from judgement, where you are invited to show up as your authentic self, be witnessed, and reconnect with the parts of you that are ready to be explored and expressed.
This is a space of connection, belonging, growth, and transformation — where you are reminded that you do not have to walk this path alone.
