Lomi Lomi Temple Style Massage
Temple style is a form of full body massage that is unlike any other massage modality. One of the most blissful massages you can receive. A Hawaiian Temple Bodywork session begins, ends, and is infused with ritual and prayer, setting the space as sacred. As a client receiving a Lomi Lomi massage the main difference from other massage styles is that the massage is performed on the whole body at once. The massage is given in fluid, rhythmic motion using the forearms as well as the hands. Some people have described this as feeling like gentle waves moving over the body. Lomi Lomi can be a spiritual vehicle for transformation within one’s self.

A SMALL INTRODUCTION
The famous Aunty Margaret Machado, one of the great elders of Lomi Lomi said our work is about “the loving touch, a connection with the heart, hands and soul with the source of life”.
I have been a bodyworker for a long time and from the very first moment Hawaiian bodywork came into my life it has empowered me, given my life more depth and meaning. I am convinced it will enhance your life, as well as those around you.

HAWAIIAN HEALING ARTS INTRODUCTION
Ancient Hawaiian Healing Techniques
The ancient Hawaiian Kahuna (shaman) guarded the secrets of esoteric knowledge concerning the Universe.
In this one day workshop you will learn and experience the Aloha philosophy of love and Huna techniques for personal transformation and empowerment. You will be taught techniques and tools for putting this philosophy into practice. During this day you will be able to clear from your lifepath fears, beliefs and limiting decisions that no longer serve you or that are no longer useful for your personal growth.
Techniques you will learn include:
· Ha Breathing – the secret energy power generation mechanism of the Kahuna.
Ha breathing was practiced by Kahunas for the purpose of healing, both self-healing and for the healing of others. It was also used for meditation and manifestation work.
· Ho’o pono pono – an ancient and powerful process for aligning yourself and your relationships past and present, and for truly letting go.
· The Huna model of the 3 minds or selves: The Huna teaches that we as humans are comprised of 3 selves, or 3 minds. An English translation of these would be to name them: subconscious; conscious; and the superconscious minds. Each of the three levels of self has its role to play in our lives and the best result is of course is an integration of the three, allowing for harmony and balance.
4. Kalana Hula energy dance and blessing ceremony:based on elements of the sacred hula and the Hawaiian martial art of lua, these movements are designed to harmonize your personal energy as well as the energy of your environment.
