7 Hawaiian principles
Hawaiian medicine guides us to our heart centre, fostering a life of freedom, love, connection, synchronicity, abundance, spiritual power, flow, and heightened consciousness awareness. It’s a transformative journey to holistic well-being. Each day we embody one of the following Hawaiian principles, through spritual and heart activating processes.
MANAWA – Now is the moment of power “I am here now”
IKE – The world is what you think it is “I am aware”
MAKIA – Energy flows where attention goes “I am focused”
ALOHA – To love is to be happy with “I am happy”
KALA – There are no limits “I am free”
MANA – All power comes from within “I am confident”
PONO – Effectiveness is the measure of truth “I am positive”
Your hosts
Meet Katharine Walton
While wellness has been my profession for over 21 years, it has also been my own path of healing and self-discovery.
Like many people, I have experienced seasons of challenge, uncertainty and transformation. Some of life’s biggest lessons arrived through unexpected experiences that invited me to slow down, heal deeply, listen more and reconnect with what truly mattered.
One of the most profound turning points in my life was navigating a breast cancer diagnosis. While it was one of the most challenging experiences I have faced, it also became a catalyst for deeper healing, greater self-awareness and a stronger connection to my intuition and heart.
It reminded me that life is precious. That our wellbeing matters. That joy, connection, adventure and following what lights us up are not things to put off for someday.
Through my own journey, I discovered the incredible gifts that can come from creating space to heal, spending time in nature, connecting with supportive people and learning to trust the wisdom within.
Today, these experiences continue to inspire everything I create through Island Heart Retreats.
My intention is that every retreat offers a space where people feel supported, nourished and free to be themselves.
A space to reconnect with their heart, embrace new adventures, create meaningful connections and remember the magic that already lives within them.
