What is Rongoā Māori ?
Rongoā Māori is a taonga tuku iho -- a living body of mātauranga (knowledge) carried down through generations. Rooted in Te Ao Māori and the interconnected relationship we share with our Taiao (environment), Whenua (land), Whakapapa (geneaology), Whānau (Family) and Wairua (Spirituality). The core foundation of Rongoā Maori is Wairua
It acknowledges our interconnected nature with the world around us, reminding us that we are not seperate. Our tinana (physical body), hinengaro (mind), wairua (spirit) and relationships are woven together, and when balance is restored, we create the space for wellbeing to flourish.
Through the wisdom of wairua, karakia, mirimiri, romiromi, kōhatu, rongoa rākau, and whitiwhiti kōrero, Te Kahu Rongoā offers a safe, respectful and nurturing pathway back to connection- with ourselves, with our whakapapa, and with the world that holds us all.
At its heart, Rongoā Māori reminds us of who we are, where we come from and what helps us return to balance
