Journey of the spirit

Mai ka Pō ke Ao—from the Night is born the Day. From the inner world, the world of Spirit, comes the world of our daily reality, the world of light. The shamans and healers of our ancestors, from the most ancient times to the present day, have ventured within on journeys of discovery, and then, as kukui (guides of light), have led others on their own vision quests. By walking the pathways of Pō we discover authentic inspiration and remove the stones of darkness that come, over time, to fill the bowls of light we carry with us when we are born into this world.

Huaka‘i means “journey”.  Akakū resonates with ideas of vision, reflection, trance, and the living human spirit itself.

Huaka‘i Akakū is a journey filled with remarkable freedom, insight, and creativity. We travel through the hidden world of the subconscious (the body-mind) to a place of deep, nurturing relaxation where we can deepen our perceptions of ourselves and the world, replenish, renew, and increase our mana, clear blocks associated with past trauma, enhance our creativity and intuition, and clarify and strengthen our intentions.

Huaka‘i Akakū offers the opportunity to meet and communicate with spirit guides, ancestors, and guardians, and to reintegrate our modern minds with our ancient, ancestral, Earth-connected consciousness (sometimes called the “indigenous mind”).

The primal, universal, and holistic state discovered in Huaka‘i Akakū becomes a matrix for profound and wide-ranging healing, inspiration, and evolution.

Inspired talks, discussions, and counseling

‘Ōlelo A‘o Loko means “to speak from innermost inspiration”. It is a form of intuitive communication that calls upon the self-knowledge of the listener and the inspired observations of the teacher.

As we prepare for our journeys, ‘Ōlelo A‘o Loko clarifies our authentic wishes and aspirations. As our journeys continue, ‘Ōlelo A‘o Loko integrates the worlds of Pō and Ao, bringing our discoveries and insights back from the realm of Spirit to the world of daily existence.

Calling on Spirit for healing

Kāhea means “to call”. In Lā‘au Kāhea, the healer calls the spirits of the body—of the blood, the bone, the organs, the muscles, the nervous system—to return in their pure form and, with the help of the spirits of the ancestors and of nature, to restore ola.

In Western terms, we might say that Lā‘au Kāhea accesses the primal patterns of health and wholeness that exist as archetypal wisdom in the deep ancestral realms of our genetic structure.

Energetic healing breath

Mauli Ola (Breath of Life) is all. Your lifetime is defined by rhythm of your breathing.

Waihā applies the healing mana (spiritual energy or life-force) of breath, concentrated and amplified by the mākia (intention), ‘ike (perception), mana‘o (conception), and aloha (compassion) of the healer.

Song and chant

Woven throughout the healing process is mele (song or chant). In ancient Hawai‘i, all learning was safeguarded and passed down in the form of chants. Now, Pili uses his skills in traditional Hawaiian music to call upon the blessings of the ancestors and your own body’s healing wisdom, and to enhance and deepen your journeys into the inner realms.
