Healing with Story Telling

Learnings from Te Ao Mori to manage grief
Sessions October, November
Mary Potter Hospice Porirua welcomes you to a series
of free sessions on healing grief.
Please come and listen to some very special Mori
storytellers share wisdom from te Ao Mori that
support all of us in times of sadness and loss.
The programme is facilitated by Vanessa Eldridge,
Mori Liaison (Ngti Kahungunu, Rongomaiwahine).
If somebody close to you has died, life has changed
for you. The grief of bereavement may bring strong,
unexpected and sometimes painful feelings.
Grief is a normal, natural process of healing.
Our October storyteller is Tau Huirama.
Tau was born in the Waikato. He is of Hapu Ngati Tamainupo and Ngati Manaipoto
heritage. Growing up and around the marae Tau was immersed in vibrant and
inspirational story telling with lessons on strength and resourcefulness.
He has held national leadership and chef executive roles with several non
government social sector organisations. He runs a consultancy Te Mauri Te Kore
specialsing in cultural advice, training, coaching and mentoring business.
Sessions will be held at Mary Potter Hospice, Porirua:
1a Prosser Street, Elsdon, Porirua.
