"Death and dying are central to our culture."


Grand rising soul family! Woah, I'm so excited and proud to share this episode with y'all. Today, I'm speaking with Dr. Hinemoa Elder. Hinemoa is the mother of two, a fellow of the Royal Australia and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists and a consultant child and adolescent psychiatrist. She is the author of two best-selling books. “Aroha. Māori wisdom for a contented life lived in harmony with our planet” was published in 2020 and is included in the Oprah Winfrey Book club. Her new book “Wawata. Daily Māori wisdom guided by Hina, the Māori moon, was published in October 2022. She has a PhD (2012) and NZ Health Research Council Eru Pomare Post-Doctoral Fellowship (2014-18) researching traumatic brain injury and has developed Māori specific approaches for the whole whānau (extended families) affected by traumatic brain injuries. To be completely honest with you, I don't even know what was the first touchpoint between Hinemoa and myself but I remember being incredibly inspired by her natural, authentic, powerful yet tender way of being in the world. I admire Hinemoa's strength and clarity and find her mission of acting as a spokesperson for the Māori culture beyond inspiring and important. In this conversation, we explore the deep connections between Māori culture, spirituality, and mental health. We discuss the importance of intentional spaces, the lessons learned from nature, and the profound impact of personal journeys and legacies. Hinemoa shares insights into the Māori understanding of death and dying, emphasizing the significance of rituals and the spiritual journey of the wairua. The conversation also addresses men's health, emotional well-being, and the societal pressures that contribute to mental health struggles. I know you're gonna get somehting out of this. Move well out there, I love you!


👉 We explored a broad variety of topics such as: - Nature as a teacher of valuable lessons in humility and connection - The legacy of our ancestors and its influence on our present and future - Death and dying rituals as a central part of Māori culture - Spirituality as a foundational piece to mental health and well-being - Men's health in NZ
