HO'OPONOPONO

Foundation 1

Heal and Awaken

When there was conflict within the `Ohana, Hawaiians began the healing process with Ho`oponopono— a process that put things right. This process of “getting right with God” offered restitution, resolution, and forgiveness. It released the person from negative labels, pre-conceptions, and self-imposed limitations. The Makaha Learning Center's first foundation of learning, Ho`oponopono, is rooted in the philosophy and practice of ALOHA. Through intentional study and self-reflection, the Spirit is awakened and restored within. This realization of self and discovery of one's dreams, gifts, and talent serve as a foundation for personal and professional success.
