KO TAHI TE HĀ

EMPOWERED PREGNANCY,

BIRTH + EARLY PARENTING

We are born of the clay of the Earth

Descended from the cosmos

Conceived by the primordial parents: Father Sky/Ranginui + Earth Mother/Papatuanuku

Carved from the clay + sands at Kurawaka

The ‘UHA’ of life

The female primordial essence

Brought into balance + form with the sacred breath + primordial essence of Tāne, the Masculine

All is connected

Tihei Mauri Ora!

He wāhine tapu koe

When a woman is pregnant,
she is holding life within her womb.
She is connected directly to source.
She is housing a soul within her own body. Growing a human being within her own flesh + bones.
Pregnancy is nothing short of a miracle. When a woman is pregnant, she is Tapu. Sacred. Revered. She is a conduit of life-force, consciousness and creation.
