Voices of Sacred Earth Festival 2015 (14 Mills Lane, Albany, Auckland)

(27 Feb to 1 March)

The 3rd annual Voices of Sacred Earth Festival focuses on natural health, environmental awareness, spiritual development and social responsibility. The Festival takes place at one of New Zealand’s most popular destinations for retreats, conferences and seminars, Kawai Purapura.

The Festival is at Albany on the North Shore, just 15 minutes from Auckland CBD. The underlying philosophy that guides Kawai Purapura’s development is one of harmonious living with the land, arising from an awareness of our oneness with all creation.

Voices of Sacred Earth Festival is a weekend of seminars, instructional workshops and performances which explore the many indigenous and cultural expressions and spiritualities that have evolved on our planet.

Local and international experts will present the seminars and workshops, while performers in the concerts will showcase the full flowering of these sacred arts.

Kawai Purapura is set in 19 acres of native NZ bush. Alongside the Festival events you can refresh your body and soul with bush walks, dips in the pool and healthy vegetarian feasts.

Workshops, seminars and displays will run from 9:00am until 5:30pm on Saturday and Sunday.

Examples include:

Indigenous shamanic healing practices

Rongoa — traditional Maori medicine

Performance, Dance, Poetry

Drumming and Jam Sessions

Taonga Puro — traditional Maori instruments

Kirtan, Sacred Chants and Gospel Music

Indigenous oral traditions

Music, Storytelling and Yoga for Children

PLUS: Friday and Saturday concerts: 7:00pm-your-energy-level

Our vision is to create a healing space wherein people can find their own potential for being well. This vision includes healing programmes for humans, animals, plants and all who live on mother earth.
