Hana I Ka Pono
The Critical Prayer for 2022
A Prayer Intensive


One of the great joys of prayer intensives with Kahu Lāhela is learning and using sacred Hawaiian vocabulary.
These words carry an ancient wisdom held in the body of the Goddess in the land. Here are some of the Hawaiian words that will come alive in you as you learn them from Kahu Lāhela:
aloha: love, divine presence
pono: harmony, rightness, correctness
mihi: forgiveness
haʻahaʻa: humility
kuleana: responsibility, duty, privilege
kaona: hidden meaning
pule: prayer
Akua: often translated as god but in Hawaiian context means generations back, connection to Universal Source
ola: life, health, well-being
oli: sacred Hawaiian chant
What is Hana I Ka Pono?
Hana I Ka Pono means duty toward correctness. It’s a practice of taking 100% responsibility of our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual wellbeing through a prayer of forgiveness combined with clearing energy work.
In this intensive we will . . .
- Cleanse our self with a focus on our personal healing
- Cleanse our self with a focus on healing our relationships
- Cleanse our self with a focus on transmuting dis-ease for all of humanity and all sentient beings
We each have a kuleana (responsibility) to bring ourselves and our world into wellness. As we do this healing work, we restore ourselves in humility and in Pono and welcome grace to flow through us.
Why is praying Hana I Ka Pono absolutely critical in this moment?
The time is now for each one of us to take responsibility—our personal kuleana—to be the difference in the world for ourselves, our beloveds and everyone and all beings. We are a part of the divine fabric that is creating in the moment, giving birth to the new consciousness. This is our opportunity now to change the script, to release the toxic patterns and behaviors, to stop repeating the old stories of suffering into the world and plant the seeds of all that we want to see in 2022 and beyond. We are at a tipping point where we can choose to continue on in the old patriarchal ways or we can step into the newness of who we are now and who we are becoming.
How is Hana I Ka Pono different from Hoʻoponopono? And why now?
From a request and out of respect for the Hawaiian elders, the Hawaiian culture and our traditional practices, I, Kahu Lāhela, am no longer using the title Hoʻoponopono for the work of cleansing through forgiveness because this title/word/name specifically refers to the traditional practice of Hoʻoponopono. The traditional version involves an entire family working together with the guidance of a facilitator requiring many steps in the process, taking anywhere from hours, days, weeks, or months to resolve.
Last year, I was given orders by the elders and my spirit guides to create a healing process that combined prayer with energy healing work because they saw the need for people everywhere to release all forms of dis-ease in the body, and it was to be called Hana I Ka Pono.
Positive change begins within us first. One idea, one thought can start a wave of collective consciousness and affect positive change. It is our kuleana, our responsibility, to heal ourselves and be the cause of healing for others and all of life here on Earth. We are at the threshold of change, and rather than play the victim card as we’ve done in the past, we are responsible for giving birth to the new consciousness.
How is this Hana I Ka Pono intensive different from the original in October 2021?
When her guides gave Kahu Lāhela instructions to create Hana I Ka Pono, they were clear that this prayer is alive and people should be taught to adjust it to heal the current situation they are experiencing. In the inaugural intensive last October, Kahu Lāhela gave us the basic outline for the prayer for self, others, and situations. Now, her guides have asked her to expand and deepen the prayer to help us move through a year filled with intensity and strife, so that we can clear ourselves to be open vessels for the Sacred Feminine to move in and through and as us.

Janet Conner
I am a prayer artist, mystic witch, creator in the Theatre of the Miraculous, and mistress of the Threshold—the mystical theta brain wave state. But first and always, a devoted daughter of the Sacred Feminine. My first book, Writing Down Your Soul, was a surprising success and led to The Lotus and The Lily, Soul Vows, and more. All that was only the warmup. In the dark one morning in 2018, my beloved voice whispered prayer artist in my left ear. I knew prayer artist would change everything, but I said yes anyway. I began writing a new genre of prayer, redefining prayer, and offering radical prayer intensives. Two years later, witch arrived in a stunning endorsement from Rabbi Tirzah Firestone. I was ecstatic; my agent was not. I ended that relationship to follow witch where she wanted me to go. She knew exactly what she wanted: transmute witch from a word that strikes terror back into an honorific that awakens a bone-deep memory of being revered for our spiritual gifts.
I trust witch. I trusted her when she asked me to create The Return of the Witches Jeanne d’Arc Listening Pilgrimage. I trusted her when she asked for a year-long mystery school Re-membering the Songlines of the Witches. I trusted her when she insisted I gather a team to create The A.R.T. of Becoming a Witch: How to Awaken, Remember, and Trust Your Body’s Natural Intuitive Senses. As that intensive was ending, witch guided me to see that ART wasn’t one intensive; it was the first of 7 in The Witch Sequence—an 7-circuit labyrinth walk to awaken all 7 of our original sacramental gifts. As my collaborators and I listened intently to what wanted to be created, we began to see a sacred purpose far beyond anything we could imagine. We are here to walk this path, embody these 7 sacred gifts, and become a truly whole and holy witch because this is the way we heal the wasteland. It may be the only way we can heal the wasteland.
To do this profound witch work, I need massive amounts of time in silence and mystical theta. I think that’s why witch is holding me in Ozona, a tiny village on the Gulf of Mexico, where I am surrounded by screeching ospreys, swooping woodstorks, and one very precious redtail hawk.
Kahu Lāhela Johnson
I am a native Hawaiian spiritual healing guide from Hawaiʻi, on the island of Oʻahu. I lead a practice of healing through forgiveness that I co-created with my guides called Hana I Ka Pono. This practice helps you cleanse, clear, and release connections to past hurt, pain, trauma, old beliefs, and patterns that block you from stepping into your power, speaking your truth, and owning your sovereignty and your gifts. This practice also releases you from multi-generational pain and suffering. Profound change, healing, clarity, balance, harmony, inner peace, and a sense of lightness and connectedness result from daily practice, reminding you that you are not separate from Source, but that you are an integral cell within the body of the whole.
