When Chef Sean began creating the menu for our 8/8 Lion's Gate Festival, he kept coming back to one simple feeling...

Comfort.

The kind of comfort found in recipes passed down through generations. The smell of fresh tortillas, slow-cooked meats, roasted corn, and food made with love.

For us, these aren't just meals—they're memories. They remind us of our ancestors, our families gathered around the table, and the simple joy of sharing food with community.

Every handmade blue corn tortilla, every fresh local ingredient, and every dish has been thoughtfully prepared to nourish both body and soul.

Because some of the most sacred moments in life happen around a shared meal.

We can't wait to feed you. ❤️

✨ The Unveiling of the Tara Temple ✨

Five months.

Five months of building through endless Hilo rain, between retreats, community events, and somehow even during our 14-day Sonic Love Alchemy Facilitator Training.

There were days we wondered if the weather would ever give us a break. Days when progress felt slow. Days when we were exhausted. Yet every morning we kept showing up, trusting that this temple was asking to be born.

What makes this even more special is that this temple wasn't built by a construction crew.

It was built by the four of us—our little family—one board, one beam, one prayer at a time.

When family came to visit Hawaiʻi, they didn't spend their vacation relaxing on the beach. They picked up tools, climbed ladders, carried lumber, painted, sanded, and poured their love into this dream alongside us. That kind of love can never be bought.

Every carving, every brushstroke, every detail carries the prayers, sweat, laughter, and devotion of the hands that created it.

Today we celebrate the unveiling of the Green Tara Temple—a sanctuary dedicated to yoga, meditation, Pilates, dance, breathwork, sound healing, ceremony, and community.

Green Tara is the embodiment of compassionate action, reminding us that every great dream begins with taking the first step. This temple is a living reminder that miracles aren't created overnight. They are created through thousands of small acts of devotion, especially when shared with the people you love.

To everyone who has supported us, believed in this vision, attended our events, shared our posts, and encouraged us along the way—thank you. Your love has carried us through every challenge.

From our family to yours...

Welcome to the Tara Temple. May it be a place where people from all walks of life come to move, heal, reconnect, and remember the beauty of gathering in community.

With all our love and gratitude,
Mu Garden Sanctuary 💚🙏

Amma Sophia Rose 🌹

🕊🌹Moving back to the USA at this time has been one of the most challenging initiations of my life.

For many years I lived between Bali and Kauaʻi. Those golden years felt like a gift from the Goddess herself… an opening to experience peace, beauty, slowness, and devotion to the sacred rhythm of life.

But eventually my time there was complete.
The deeper initiation was calling me home.

Not home as a place…
but home as a confrontation with truth.

The decolonization of my mind, body, emotions, and soul began.

Mastery is not about getting it all “right.”
It is the devotion to evolution in the midst of difficulty.
The willingness to stay open-hearted while life strips you down to your essence.

I had tasted freedom from Babylon.
I had lived inside the beauty way.
But even in paradise, suffering surrounded me.

I could not fully enjoy bliss while witnessing homeless mothers with children on the streets…
s*x trafficking happening down the road from the beaches tourists worshipped…
light and dark existing simultaneously in the same reality.

I remember all the trees in Bali wrapped in black and white cloth — the sacred remembrance of polarity, duality, shadow and light.

And always… the Goddess whispering:
“What do you choose?”

I choose to see.
To feel.
To know truth.

Not to bypass.
Not to look away.
Not to numb myself from the reality that we live inside duality.

Today I had a profound realization about the intensity of American consciousness. I remembered overhearing a group of Europeans in a café in Bali speaking about Americans… how they could immediately recognize us by our entitled energy. At the time it stung to hear. But living back here now, building this sanctuary from the ground up with my family, I have had to deeply confront the conditioning we all carry.

This path has humbled me at my core.

Creating this center has been one of the hardest, most character-building experiences of my life. With very little outside support, my family and I are learning how to truly move as a team… how to build through devotion, exhaustion, conflict, love, and unwavering vision.

A big vision asks everything of you.
It asks for your comfort.
Your certainty.
Your ego.
Your old identity.

For those who see what we have created and imagine it has been easy… good luck. 🌹

At the end of many days I completely collapse… only to wake the next morning to another opportunity to witness a living volcano, earth shaking beneath us, nature reminding me daily that transformation is not comfortable.

And honestly… I think that is the medicine.

To stay open.
To stay human.
To stay devoted to the heart in the midst of the fire.

Welcome to Mu Garden Sanctuary

Nestled in the lush beauty of Hawai‘i Island, Mu Garden Sanctuary is a living temple devoted to nature, sound, community, and the remembrance of our sacred connection to the Earth.

What began as a vision held in prayer has been lovingly brought into the physical by our family over the past years—plant by plant, stone by stone, ceremony by ceremony.

Mu Garden Sanctuary is a place where people gather to reconnect with what truly matters. Here we host retreats, sacred ceremonies, sound healing journeys, yoga, dance, and community gatherings that honor the wisdom of the Earth and the Divine.

Our sanctuary is also a regenerative garden and farm space where we cultivate food, flowers, and herbal preparations with love and intention. The land itself is a teacher, inviting us to slow down, breathe deeply, and remember the sacred rhythm of life.

Whether you come to attend a retreat, share in ceremony, or simply sit with the beauty of the land, you are welcomed into a space devoted to healing, creativity, and community.

We are honored to share this sanctuary with you.

With love,
Amma Sophia & Jason 🌹
