Ho‘oponopono is a traditional Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. It’s both a spiritual philosophy and a healing method designed to cleanse negative energies, release emotional blockages, and restore harmony—within yourself and in your relationships with others.
The word "Ho‘oponopono" roughly translates to "to make right" or "to correct an error." In traditional Hawaiian culture, it was practiced communally with a healer or elder facilitating the process. Modern adaptations have made it more accessible as a self-healing practice.
Cleanses memories/data: Ho‘oponopono views problems as results of accumulated memories or programs replaying in your subconscious.
Personal responsibility: You are responsible for what shows up in your life—even things that seem external—because they are perceived through your inner world.
Healing from within: By clearing the emotional charge within yourself, you change your experience and potentially the situation or person.
