NATURAL Permaculture (PC) BALANCING @ AinaOla

We respect Natures' is all powerful energy patterns here at AinaOla. It rains & sun daily in chaotic patterns we flow with. All our plants are alive, some need our attention & care, to grow their whole life cycle, or into food/compost/mulch etc. Our big old Mango & Ohia trees grow without our work. We especially love planting, weeding, harvesting & watering during dry spells. We have some animals: 3 cats, many wild birds, some mongooses, a zillion bugs & worms. The tropical insects like to bite sweet diet/blooded people, but you can adjust/acclimatize so they won't bother you.

The transition to outdoor bush-living & raw foods maybe intense if new to you, depending on your natural health, diet & deep sensitivities. Most raw foods can purify your body, triggering some release of toxins from junk & processed food, drugs, etc. We prefer to eat local homegrown fresh raw organic foods. We ask you to share this here, which may trigger reactions: emotions, elimination, energy to balance & heal, to use creatively. The more stress you have/bring here, the more challenging to process it clear & release naturally while staying here. We even do some deep emotional clearing heart work, massage, rebirthing, psychotropics, fasting, yoga, etc.

So we hope you'll prepare for visiting here, because of the radical differences in acclimatizing to simple tropical community & organic living. You need to be sensitive, open & flexible to enjoy life here, camping, eating raw, working, playing & relaxing in balance. We do variedwork-chores daily. So we may need to train you to learn the techniques to do simply, efficiently & safely. We can use most organic plant growing skills here. The easier you learn, the more enjoyable it is. In PC we learn natural patterns everyday, to grow more fertile & abundant in balance.
