Maori Ora: Your Guide to Using Traditional Maori Knowledge to Live a More Intentional Life - Hardcover

by Hira Nathan (Author)

An inspirational guided journal based on mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge), designed to help you build simple daily habits and live a more balanced, intentional life.

Ma te matau ka ora te iwi -- Through knowledge, the people will thrive.

Engage with key aspects of mātauranga--manaakitanga (kindness and care), kaitiakitanga (connection with the land), mauri (life force), rangatiratanga (leadership and self-determination), tikanga/kawa (customs and behavior), and whanaungatanga (relationships).

This journal helps you connect the wisdom of the past with the challenges of the present, using guided prompts and reflections to inspire positive change and personal growth. Whether you spend a few minutes a day or a longer moment of reflection, kei a koe te tikanga--it's up to you.

Build a bridge between mātauranga and modern life to cultivate wellbeing, purpose, and harmony.

Ko te manu e kai ana i te miro, nōna te ngahere. Ko te manu e kai ana i te mātauranga, nōna te ao.The bird that partakes of the miro berry owns the forest. The bird that partakes of knowledge owns the world.
