Exploring the web of life through Dharma and Tiwaiwaka with Community and including Bonni Ross

We are all part of the connections and weaving that sustains all life. All living things exist like this from the tiniest of creatures to the largest of beings.

Focusing on our connection with whenua and our place within this web of life, this weekend will explore through the lens of dharma practice and Tiwaiwaka principles how to enable both whenua and tangata to be well.

Ka ora te whenua. Ka ora te tangata. When the land is well the people are well.

This weekend is a community based offering and will include teaching by Bonni Ross, exploration into Tiwaiwaka principles as well as meditation practice and time to be with the beautiful Wangapeka whenua.All welcome.
