He met his teacher in Molokai and had a commitment ceremony to become the 51st generation of a cultural practitioner. · His Hawaiian spiritual background has around 4000 deities and has numerous pillars of focus including love “Aloha”, “Pono” – alignment about things being in the rightful place and how it relates to your “Ohana” – your family/community. · Kumu says that people come to seek happiness and Kumu teaches the wisdom from his ancestry to help people find the change in order to create and maintain happiness. · Understanding that breaking the confines of how to get out of the things that make people feel stuck is what Kumu helps people with and creating the change that is required. · If we find ourselves unhappy, we have to create change. Look to the source. That source is in our ancestry, our wellbeing to our higher power is a way of nurturing that special relationship. This includes communicating through prayer, chanting, meditation etc and requires discipline. · The wind, trees, land, the moon are all examples of the ancestry we can source for our wellbeing. · The light and warmth of the Sun are one of the most healing and growing energy powers and plays an important role in the duality with the cooling, feminine energy of the moon. · Kumu’s definition of happiness is stillness in silence and being in complete and total alignment with what you are born with and what you aspire to be in the future. It is all the time and is a state of being. · Kumu’s morning routine is giving thanks and prayers to his family and ancestors. · The top things that make Kumu’s heart sing is singing, spending time with his family, making space/design for how things look/make him feel around him · Kumu’s fantasy meal is tacos · Stories from Molokai and Darkness of Night are amongst Kumu’s favourite books. · Forgiveness and surrendering are one of the best things we can do for our health · The things that make Kumu laugh are comedy jokes, flatulence, the stuff we tend to hide as humans that when it occurs it’s a relief to acknowledge its presence. · Kumu’s gratitude practice includes chanting and shares a chant with Carla   I have a 20% off code to share with you guys,  you can go to magicmind.co slash  and enter the code HH20 at checkout.
