MANA RETREAT - A Multilayered Gift -
Karin de la Rey.
The coastal road from Thames to Mana Retreat on the
Coromandel Peninsula is a windy, but scenic route. The
scenery invites sneaky peeks at the clear blue water of the
Hauraki Golf that contrasts deliciously with the roughness
of the Pohutukawa tree trunks that frame parts of SH
25. The slowing down at corners happens with expected
repetitiveness, a subtle way to prepare me for my own
slowing down process – a ritual of letting go, of embracing a
time of relaxation, a time to discover myself yet again.

Remember the ‘old’ days? Gender roles were clearly defined;
women kept the kitchen and kids in line, while the men
brought home the figurative bacon ... A Sunday roast was the mainstay of most families, with everyone routinely eating

complexities of one or more ‘fussy’ eating stipulations
from one or more of the family or guests at our dinner
table. Sensitivities, intolerances (we are not talking about personality differences here) and allergies, commonly dictate
the menus at many a dinner party, cafe, restaurant or day
care centre, with an estimated one in fi ve New Zealanders
being affected to some degree. While for many people this
causes mild to moderate discomfort from symptoms, for some people the effects are potentially life-threatening.
