Testimonials from Kauakea's clients
Kauakea's experience was the perfect start to our vacation, so calming and relaxing. Great energy and thoughtful host. We learned a lot about chakra and astrology. Kauakea is very knowledgeable, easy going, kind and patient in answering all of our questions. The session was well structured and personalized to our needs. My husband and I both felt lighter and more centered after the session. Highly recommend for busy professionals looking to de-stress or enjoy an unique experience!

Great explanations and materials to support learning, growth and healing. She makes sure you have the knowledge and materials to extend value beyond the initial session. She is clear, kind, intuitive and insightful! Would recommend without reservation.

This experience was unique and was very eye opening. Kauakea was open minded, knowledgeable and insightful. Her 20+ years of experience in healing arts aided me in understanding the basic levels of myself and my astrological chart. I gained knowledge on the complexities of my chart and the chakras and which were needing a little more work and what I can strive for in my journey. The space was tranquil as well. I recommend anyone to try this experience!

Kauakea has truly helped me to better understand who I am and why I made the choices I did. She has helped me to recognize my “traps” and also helped me to see and embrace my strengths. She also helped me (through her readings) to better understand my husband and two boys. ~ Marcie Ahana
I am in the midst of an astrology class with Kauakea and it's a wonderful journey! It's wonderful to be able to zoom home from work, make a cup of coffee, grab a snack, get in comfy clothes, grab my book and my computer, and enjoy class. She is explains astrology in a language that I can understand and it has already aided me in having a better understanding of the people around me. ~ Brandy Burrafato
Kauakea is one incredibly talented teacher. She has such a fantastic way of explaining astrology in a way so even the novice can understand. She is wise and always pushing herself to learn more in order to deepen her craft. I wouldn't ever pass up the opportunity to work with Kauakea for her breadth of knowledge is unlike anything I have ever experienced before in the world of astrology. ~ Sarah McCallum

We will be interpreting our own natal birth. Kauakea 's approach is using astrology as a compassion practice. Your chart if full of gifts and lessons, discover what you came here to do and learn kindness for self and others.
We had a very diverse group of women from quite young to let's just say "life experienced", the combination of age and where each of us were at in life brought creativity, youthful joy & wonderful wisdom. I felt and captured the beauty of the island in a profound perspective when seeing it through photography. I learned so much from Kauakea and Lisa, both accomplished photographers who shared their talents so generously. The accommodations and food were beyond my expectations. I bonded with each and every one of the beautifull women and it's a wonderful memory I will cherish forever. GPD, Payson, AZ.
I cannot thank Kauakea enough for my natal chart reading! Although I love astrology, I did not know anything past my sun sign is Scorpio with rising sign Cancer. Kauakea took the time to explain to me in depth what each symbol meant and their positive and negative aspects, in a way that was easy to understand. The reading with Kauakea revealed what astrological goodness makes up Emi in such a gentle, yet fun way. Things I've known about myself but questioned "why" were validated and explained with such compassion and understanding. Through the reading, Kauakea helped me to know my Soul on a deeper more intimate level and I cannot be more grateful. For all those on their path, I highly recommend a reading with Kauakea; she gives you all that you need to know astrologically to connect you to yourself and bring you closer to your true purpose.
Mahalo nui loa,

I am in the midst of an astrology class with Kauakea and it's a wonderful journey! Recently in class, I learned that I need to step out of the "mundane world" and I feel like this class is the helping me accomplish that. I have gone to a few classes at Kauakea's beautiful and relaxing healing hale while another classmate joins us electronically. Recently I have been so busy at work that I would have been late to, or missed class but I was also able to take advantage of joining the class electronically, from home! Kauakea has been accommodating and encouraging of my weekly, last minute decisions to embrace technology. It's wonderful to be able to zoom home from work, make a cup of coffee, grab a snack, get in comfy clothes, grab my book and my computer, and enjoy class. I'm learning by getting to know my own chart and also the charts of classmates. It's fascinating and fun! She is explains astrology in a language that I can understand and it has already aided me in having a better understanding of the people around me. ~ Brandy B.
Kauakea is an amazing energy healer and teacher. Her energy healing classes give a deeper understanding of the energies of the universe running through our bodies. She creates a safe compassionate container to explore our inner world, the defense patterns, whatever energies get stuck and want to be released. In that light she gives a deeper insight in the depths of our body, the energies running through and whatever happens in the invisible, which is very tangible and at the same time so hard to define. I love the way she uses playful, creative tools to makes the unseen tangible and bringing it into our conscious perception. I highly recommend her class. Mahalo nui loa! ~ Genevieve B.
The healings offered for nearly every life condition truly bring about repatterning of inner and outer life systems. I've recently been receiving Resonance Repatterning sessions covering patterns instilled in childhood to present day influences affecting my health and well being. Wow, very powerful and specific work. Instant and ongoing benefits have included strategies for dealing with over-independence, physical "asanas" for calming over stimulated nervous system, and affirmations for directing mind into new healthy patterns of thought and actions. Also have taken advantage of the many astrology offerings, birth charts, couples charts, now planning on getting cartography chart- where in the world is my love life most likely to flourish, inquiring minds will find out soon! Thank you Kauakea and the Healing Resourse Team! - Happily Healing Otter
For my birthday, I had a "progress" reading of my astrology chart by Kauakea Winston. This type of reading looks at the year ahead to provide a road map. When I started to go through a rough patch recently, I was comforted because I could turn to this recorded reading. It enabled me to get more perspective so that I did not panic. Kauakea is very insightful, articulate and skilled at astrology. Her way of explaining things, even if they don't seem evident at the moment, is particularly useful. I called to tell her what a great help her reading was! I am sure I will turn to it again as things continue to unfold throughout this pivotal year. Thank you, dear friend! Aloha, Susanne Sims
