What is Energy Healing?

Mahu Wairua – Energy Healing

“He oranga ngākau, he pikinga waiora.”
When the heart is at ease, wellbeing blossoms.

Mahu Wairua is a sacred and long-held tradition within Rongoā Māori. It is a practice that clears and restores energy across all layers of life – your whānau (family), whare (home), whenua (land), and wāhi mahi (workplace).

In today’s world, many of us are carrying too much. We juggle endless roles and responsibilities, leaving us feeling overloaded, exhausted, and disconnected. Mahu Wairua offers a way to restore flow and harmony, not only for the individual but for the collective.

This practice also works on a deeper level to release the effects of intergenerational trauma carried through whakapapa. It realigns the wairua (spirit) with the tinana (body) and hinengaro (mind), helping you return to a state of balance and connection.

Nature is our greatest ally. The ngahere (forest), awa (river), roto (lake), and moana (sea) all offer pathways to replenish your energy. Even the simple act of pausing to breathe can bring you back to calm and clarity.

When your usual tools are no longer enough, it may be time to seek Mahu Wairua Energy Healing — a gentle yet powerful way to release what no longer serves you and reawaken your inner strength.

Energy healing clears blockages and restores flow — allowing you to move forward in life with greater ease, balance, and strength.

 

Why do we seek out healing?

There are many reasons people are drawn to healing. Sometimes we notice repeating patterns in our lives — being bullied, attracting unhealthy relationships, or experiencing mistreatment within our own whānau.

At other times, it may manifest as struggles with confidence, ongoing health issues, financial pressures, or the constant demands of daily life. Fatigue, stress, restless sleep, or challenges with mental and emotional wellbeing are all signs that our energy is not flowing as it should.

Does any of this feel familiar?

How I would like to work with you

When you come to me for healing, I first look at your energy to see what is blocked or out of flow. Energy that is stuck affects not only your emotions, but also your physical health and the way you speak to yourself in your own thoughts. Over time, this can dim your wairua (spirit) and leave you feeling weighed down.

For me, healing is about releasing what no longer serves you. By unblocking the “dam” of stagnant energy, your natural vitality returns. This shift flows into every part of your being — uplifting your hinengaro (mind), tinana (body), and wairua (spirit) — helping you feel lighter, clearer, and more at peace.

Healing is not about becoming someone new — it is about returning to who you truly are, with clarity, resilience, and connection.

 
 

Atua Healing® shifts energy to give you strength

 

Understanding how Atua Healing® works

As human beings, we respond to life on many levels — physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Whether through a traumatic childhood experience, a stressful workplace, an unhealthy relationship, or a loss of confidence, these events leave imprints on our wellbeing.

Over time, these experiences can create blockages in your natural energy flow. Within Atua Healing®, this is known as your Energy Signature — the unique pattern formed by how you have reacted to the events of your life.

When your Energy Signature becomes blocked, it can lead to repetitive and limiting patterns of behaviour that hold you back from living fully. These patterns might appear as:

  • Low self-esteem or lack of self-belief

  • Difficulty finding courage or taking “me time”

  • Unhealthy habits or behaviours

  • Mental and emotional challenges such as PTSD, anxiety, or depression

Atua Healing® works by clearing these blockages, realigning your energy, and helping you reconnect with your authentic self — so you can live with greater freedom, balance, and strength.

What to expect in your Atua Healing®

For your first Atua Healing® session, we will begin with a gentle assessment to understand your healing priorities and goals. Together, we will discuss how many treatments may best support your pathway to wellness.

During the session, you will remain fully clothed, lying comfortably on your back. A cover will be placed over you to ensure you feel warm, safe, and supported. Throughout the healing, my hands will hover just above your body without direct contact. At times, I may gently rest my hands on your covered feet or shoulders to support the flow of energy.

Atua Healing® is a non-invasive form of energy healing. It works in harmony with any other medical or natural treatments you may be receiving and will not interfere with prescribed medications, supplements or any other healing modalities.
