Why we use the Kupu Māori Loan Words in our planners
Do you know where the names of the days of the week and months of the year come from? We share in this blog why we use the Kupu Māori Loan Words for the days and months in all of the resources we use - so we can distinguish between Western measures of the Gregorian Calendar, and our own Māori measures of time.
Maramataka 101
We cant summarise the maramataka into a 2 minute korero - but heres hoping in 2 minutes you get an appreciation for the vast body of knowledge it is, how amazing our tūpuna were, and ways you can connect to this korero and practice it in your daily life.
Korekore Nights of the maramataka ahead
While the Korekore nights of the maramataka are often associated with low energy and productivity, there are other activities that are good to do during these days.
Be kind to yourself, be patient, and use this time to rest, reconnect and prepare for productive days ahead.
