Talk, KU HINA, The land's Adam and Eve... embracing the Paradox.
A refreshing ancient look at the who of you is not your rules. Why of you attract and repulse companions we create with. How are we to receive and provide at the same time. When is and where is NOW. All mana is Attention and Breath. Connect the two and Companionship from the outer world reflects companionship of the innerworld. A fun engaging safe discovery here. |

Tanya has been walking her medicine path in complete surrender to the healing vibrations and guidance of the Ancient Spirit of the Didjeridu.

Starting a new hive of honeybees is an exciting experience. On January 14th, Hawaiian Sanctuary, with the help of Jen Rasmussen, owner of Paradise Nectar Apiaries will be setting up two top bar hives. Once the hives settle in they need to be visited to make sure their needs are being met. During this Manafest workshop we will be visiting the bees to see how they are doing after about a week of growth. This is a great workshop for anyone who may be considering caring for bees or who desires to connect with a more gentle and loving way to relate to honeybees.
Paradise Nectar Apiaries was created in 2008 by Jen Rasmussen. What started as a desire to learn sustainable skills and produce food for her family has since blossomed into a sustainable business that offers pollination, pure hive products, honeybees, hives, education, and more. Jen is supported in her passion to care for honeybees and our future food supply by her partner John and their two children. Paradise Nectar is truly a family business. From the gardens to the apiary this family has a love to grow and live with nature.
Over the past 5 years Jen Rasmussen has offered educational workshops, apprenticeships, hive maintenance, and taught at HAAS & the University of Hilo. It is her passion to share her love for bees and show the kind & gentle side of caring for them. She teaches what she loves and loves to teach.

We are all indigenous to somewhere. Our ancestors surround us, awaiting our recognition, our sensing capacity. It’s the time of remembering, a simple homecoming. Our whakapapa (ancestry link) inform us, and all we do. When we act in a way that brings us alive, or offer our work and it’s easy, our tupuna/ kupuna/ ancestors are with us. It’s the returning of living ancestry (whakapapa). Whaka is to create, to become. Papa is earth, foundation. As we live consciously of the 7 generations to come, we set something alight so they will later feel our love and the line is alive and well.
Our ancestors include stone, water, wind, and people… This workshop shares key prompts through the Waitaha lore, Te Ao Māori, and te nehe o nekenoa the ancient grandmother patterns. To tune into this regardless where you stand as home. This is a journey of questions. To plant the seeds or join the stars, to delve into your own knowing and connections in the inner listening.
