Abraham Kawai'i: A brief history of the man, the kahuna, and kahuna bodywork

Abraham Kawai'i was a kahuna, or Native Hawaiian spiritual practitioner. This book tells the stories that he told about his early life and training as a kahuna, as well as how he adapted the principles of his own training in order to teach them to a non-Hawaiian audience. Abraham grew up in a small fishing village on Hawai'i Island during a time of great change for Native Hawaiians. As a boy and young man, he struggled to reconcile the traditional teachings of his grandmother and other kahuna with the demands of Western life. It can be a challenge for each of us to reconcile a life in the modern world with our core passions and dreams. To live in the world of today and not let go of his passion and cultural heritage, Abraham developed teachings that bridge that gap for any individual who wants to lead a life that is rich, adventurous, and fulfilling. These are tales full of human achievement and the building of mana. They tell of a young man's journey to become a practicing kahuna in 1970's Honolulu, and his later decision to teach kahuna principles to a world-wide audience. These stories also share the author's own experiences of what it was like to live and train with Abraham. This book will inspire you to seek the one thing that you feel passionate about, and make that thing the center of your life. In Abraham's own words, "There is always a Yes!"
