🌿 This taonga is a living body of mātauranga.
Rongoā Rākau – Native Healing Trees of Aotearoa is a deeply grounded, comprehensive guide to traditional Māori healing, bringing together generations of knowledge, lived practice, and contemporary understanding into one powerful resource.
Rooted in whakapapa, wairua, and connection to te taiao, this pukapuka offers an authentic and holistic pathway into the world of rongoā Māori.
Unlike many rongoā publications, this book does not isolate plants from practice. It weaves together the wider system of healing, providing not only detailed profiles of over 40 native rākau, but also the tikanga, processes, and deeper understanding required to work with them safely, respectfully, and intentionally.
Inside this pukapuka, you will find:
🌿 In-depth rongoā rākau profiles, including identification, uses, preparation methods, energetic qualities, and cautions
🌿 Guidance on tikanga and ethical harvesting practices, grounded in respect, reciprocity, and relationship with whenua
🌿 Practical maramataka insights to support timing, potency, and alignment with natural rhythms
🌿 Karakia for harvesting and working with rongoā, supporting intention and spiritual connection
🌿 Step-by-step preparation methods for wairākau, pani, tinctures, and other traditional applications
🌿 A comprehensive rongoā equipment guide to support safe, clean, and intentional preparation
🌿 Core plant groupings for internal and external healing applications
This pukapuka does not just tell you what rongoā is — it shows you how to engage with it.
What makes this pukapuka truly unique is its integration of wairua, tikanga, mātauranga and practical application. Many resources offer fragments of rongoā knowledge. This pukapuka brings these elements together in one place — from the ngahere to the whare, from harvesting to preparation, and from mātauranga to healing practice.
Grounded in over 20 years of lived rongoā practice and guided by whānau, kaumātua and whare wānanga teachings, this work reflects a lifelong commitment to the protection, practice and revitalisation of mātauranga Māori.
It carries not only information, but responsibility, integrity and aroha.
Whether you are just beginning your journey with rongoā Māori or seeking to deepen your existing practice, this pukapuka has been created as a resource you can return to again and again.
A beautiful addition to your kete mātauranga and a must-have for those seeking to reconnect with traditional healing, strengthen their understanding of rongoā Māori, and walk in greater alignment with the rhythms of te taiao.
This is more than a book.
This is a taonga to be carried forward.
