Ka 'Ike O Pili'uhane

Editor: Jennifer Scarlett Meyers

Let’s take a step back from the usual tourist visiting sights of Hawai‘i and take in a more spiritually exhilarating experience.  It was hard for me at first to see what other places Hawai‘i has to show me, but after attending Marist College in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., where the winters were cold and unforgiving and where I spent most of my days wishing I was laying out on the beach, my eyes have widened to the treasures that Hawai‘i has to offer.

We constantly take for granted the beautiful weather, tropical scenery and clear ocean blue beaches.  But if we don’t take the time to research what other valuable experiences Hawai‘i may have to offer, we could be missing out on a world that not a lot of people get to experience for themselves.  That is where I come in.

As a journalist, I am eager to see what is hidden in the depths of the island and it is my job to seek out those places and share them with you, the reader.  There are many things we oversee in our daily lives and most of the island’s beauties are right in plain sight.  But with the island’s natural beauty come those individuals who help to uncover the vast amount of hidden magnificence through their own eyes.

I hope to recognize those who practice spiritual living and help to sustain the islands resources.  I will tell stories of small businesses, extraordinary farms, delectable dining experiences, health retreats and a life of a psychic that will hopefully help you find your path of spiritual living if you’re looking for a new understanding of the ‘Aina.

Let me enhance your vision of Hawai‘i and help you to become a true Kama‘aina.  There are many hidden riches on the islands and I hope that through my words, you will find inspiration, vision, clarity and possibly a new path to spirituality.  There are many things that we must learn about the places we live and not take it for granted.  It is easy to look at the bad things in life, but the good things will often come after an inspirational story or a spiritual place.

I hope that you will find an understanding of these individuals that make Hawai‘i a more beautiful and unique place to live.  I hope you will find a vision of the ‘Aina that you may not have had before.  I hope you will find clarity to something that you may have been blind to before.  And I hope you find a path that will inspire you to live a more spiritual life because not only will it help you get through difficult times, it may well change your life.  Spirituality is a lifestyle.

Here is Ka ‘Ike O Pili‘uhane: a journey of the vision of spirituality.

Enjoy your venture into a new world.
