Featuring Nā Hokua staff member Kahanu Walker, this session explores the meaning of pono - living in balance and right relationship - through the alignment of the piko, the sacred points that connect us to spirit, ancestors, and future generations. Grounded in ʻike Hawaiʻi, participants will reflect on how these connections influence personal well-being, identity, and purpose.
