Mahaba (mah-ha-bah)-love

Mahaba is a word that originates from the Swahili meaning love. Mahaba means the noun ‘love’. Mahaba is derived from the Arabic word for love, haba. By appending the ma- at the beginning, the word can be adapted to mean “‘overflowing with love’. I believe that everything that we do flows from love. How we show up in our relationships, how we care for each other and how we ultimately treat ourselves. It is my hope that our time together encourages you to love deeper, more meaningful and more expansive.

“A generous heart is always open, always ready to receive our going and coming. In the midst of such love we need never fear abandonment. This is the most precious gift true love offers-the experience of knowing we always belong.”-Bell Hooks
