It’s in the name… 

Lemon Jesus reflects my way of being — shaped by spirituality, care, and creativity.
The name holds both reverence and lightness, and speaks to a practice that welcomes people as they are.

All workshops are open and welcoming to anyone needing a refresh. We begin and end together with karakia and whakataukī to help guide the space.

You are welcome as you are, and free to be fully yourself within this space.

Ngā mihi nui,
Vikki

Ko-fi  ♥ Aroha

Support the mahi I am doing in this space through Ko-fi – a place to directly support my work and the community who access the workshops, room resets and other responsive developments as this evolves.

Creativity comes in many forms and I want to celebrate that…

A Poem called

I hear

The long white clouds tuck heavenly blankets of mist, underneath the earth’s thighs.

 

Lying there weeping

The earth tells me stories of lost songs, broken forests, And the Huia bird’s wavering whistle, long gone.

I wish Earth, that you could reach up and collect the Huia from the stars.

I’m sure your arms would reach!

To delight in the chime of a Huia pair in harmony, To have them hop and glide along your fingers tips once more.

Oh Surely it would be a worthy joy,

to extract them from time – rewind them back out of extinction?

 

The earth’s voice breaks,

‘If only I could…

My eyes swell, I continue to listen.

Enfold me earth into your misty blanket And let me hear you.
