My Journey towards becoming Plant Powered

When Carl Lewis bound his way to nine Olympic gold medals no one would have guessed he was running on fruit salad. Whether for philosophical reasons, environmental concerns, or improved health, more Kiwi’s are choosing a plant powered diet to help them enjoy better, more productive lives. As the science rolls in and public perception changes the idea of munching down on a big bowl of plant food seems increasingly appealing to many carnivorous salad doubters.

Ten new myths for humanity

Our world is built upon stories. Stories that tell us how we should live. How we should behave. Who should have power, and who does not. These collectively held narratives underpin our understanding of “how the world works”. And in many cases, they have taken us down a dangerous path where social inequality is increasing, our climate is rapidly changing, and we have destabilised the natural operating system of the entire planet.

Yoga , te ao Māori and climate change action

I see te ao Māori and te reo Māori starting to be incorporated into the Aotearoa ‘yoga scene’ – from a weekly theme of Whanaungatanga at my local studio SPACE in Te-Whanganui-a-Tara, to the ‘Te Reo Yoga Cards’ and movements to teach rangatahi yoga based on local purakau (see M3 Movement). Although from completely different origins, these two worlds appear to complement each other, acknowledging that we are all connected, and our actions have consequences. And no other consequential action is more evident now than climate change due to human greenhouse gas emissions.
