For those wishing to use their vacation in paradise as a time for renewal and growth, the authors invite the reader to a deeper experience of the native culture and healing resources of Hawaii.

The Crites really understand Hawai?i?s spiritual side, including a deep and sincere appreciation for the Hawaiian culture. - Bill Taylor, Hawai?i Island Journal.
