Creating Space
A Healing Place - Community Giving Day
Saturday 7th March 2026








A Healing Place came together to support the wider Whanganui community through a day of connection, generosity and shared presence.
Held at Te Ao Hou Marae, Creating Space Whanganui welcomed 500 people to gather, share kai,
stories and moments of stillness - all grounded in the kaupapa of self-sustainability, zero waste,
and giving without expectation.
Alongside, Claire of Artfelt and Luana of Healing Homies, I was honoured to offer wairua readings, healing space freely throughout the day.
Each guest who sat with us was welcomed with kindness, respect, care, openness and compassion.
There were moments where the energy of the space was deeply felt and held.
The presence of the Awa, of Papatūānuku, and of those who walk with us unseen, was strong.
It was a day of:
- heartfelt conversations
- quiet emotional release
- laughter and lightness
- plus, deep, grounded connection
I am incredibly grateful to have been a part of such a beautiful offering to the community.
Ko au te awa, ko te awa ko au.
The river and the people, forever connected.
Ngā mihi nui to all who came, shared, and received.
