Whakawhetai Gratitude Cover

 

This book is about gratitude and is a bilingual guide to living a more grateful life. The author Hira Nathan utilises the Māori hauora (wellbeing) health model Te Whare Tapa Whā and whakataukī (Māori proverbs) to give you an opportunity to pause for a few minutes each day and invite gratitude into your life.

The author weaves Te Whare Tapa Whā and Māori hauora (wellbeing) health phrases throughout the journal, which provides a Te Ao Māori (Māori world view) perspective of health and wellbeing. 

This journal is perfect for Māori and non-Māori alike, no matter where your Te Reo level is at. Each page of this journal provides inspirational Māori quotes with Māori to English translations. 

Learning about the Māori world view of health and wellbeing will be of benefit to all readers.
