As a seasoned traveler, primary care provider, and yoga instructor, I can say that Waipi’o Valley has an undeniable energetic vibration that is healing to the cellular level like no other place I’ve experienced before. Meditating, swimming, running, stretching, and playing on Waipi’o’s black sandy beach with my dog renews my spirit. This energetic reset allows me to emerge restored and helps me to give to and hold space for others in my professional and personal life as well as my community. I believe we can find a middle way in which we can preserve this special aina.
