Commune with friendly, wild dolphins

We teach dolphin etiquette that respects their space. We obey the "rules" by never swimming in their direction when they are 50 yards away, and we always observe from a great distance during their quiet time. When the dolphins are active, we invite them to swim with us - if that is their wish. We always try to keep calm in their presence (even though it is a peak experience). We think of the bay as their sanctuary. We are grateful when dolphins bless us with their presence and pray that they are aware of our gratitude for their healing energy. They are masters of Aloha (reciprocal loving). Communing from the shore can be a consciousness raising experience.

Lomilomi Rejuvenation Treatments

aunty margaret
Licensed massage therapists are available on call to give a variety of massages - including lomilomi, shiatsu and swedish. Barbara had the good fortune to study lomilomi (ancient Hawaiian massage) with Aunty Margaret Machado 25 years ago. She enjoys teaching people how to work on one another in the way this ancient Hawaiian art was traditionally practiced within the family to stay healthy and emotionally connected. more info

Flower Essence Therapy

Experience personal growth through the use of flower essences (mainly California flower essences and Bach Remedies). The flower essences are made by placing the flowers in a crystal bowl in the sunshine and the message of these various flowers is "embued" in the water. The essence works on the etheric body, gently allowing you to address a variety of issues relating to soul development. Zinia, for childlike joy, is a gift available upon request.

Photographic Studies

Photographic Studies and Wedding Pictures: Barbara is a professional photographer who loves to do portraits of individuals, couples and families. She calls this EXPRESSIONS OF LOVE. Using jungle backgrounds makes for delightful color and ambiance. Ocean expeditions are lovely at sunset with the heiau in the background, warm pink and yellow cloud colors reflecting in the pools.

Sailing on a Hawaiian double-hulled canoe.

The Dragonfly has been blessed by a special Hawaiian friend, Kiko Johnston-Kitasawa. He has built his own double-hulled canoe and has extraordinary knowledge of the Hawaiian culture, and sailing in particular. He will take honeymooners out on a private sail, or groups up to 6, showing everyone a fantastic water experience. Kiko sets an example of how to live Aloha.
