Huna Teacher & Author
A life-long seeker of wisdom, compassionate teacher, and dedicated practitioner of Huna based on the ageless teachings of ancient Hawaii for the past fifty years. Arlyn J. Macdonald shares life-changing modern practices of Huna to help you gently and confidently reconnect your mind, heart, and spirit to transform and heal your life.
I was captivated from the first moment I was introduced to the Huna teachings at a lecture. I was a young mother just beginning to ask questions about life and my greater purpose. I was searching for a practical system that could help me understand my own thoughts and emotions.
The Huna concept about the complex inner world of consciousness and the Three Selves is the most meaningful and practical system I have ever studied. It transformed my life and continues to bring me new insights and understandings. Huna has become my way of life.
Since those early days, I have taught Huna classes and workshops, written articles, and authored my first Huna book, Essential Huna: Discovering and Integrating Your Three Selves, and wrote three more. Last year my Inner Self revealed new insights into the Huna teachings which I included in the New Essential Huna, which will be released this summer. I am also working on a new book, The Power of Huna, which will be available in the fall.
Huna transformed my life and it can transform yours.

Learn more →ALOHA is a Hawaiian word that most people recognize as meaning “hello” or “goodbye.” ALOHA has a much deeper meaning. It is a spiritual and compassionate way of living.
In the Hawaiian language words are made of smaller root words that when connected not only describe the physical character of the thing described but could have up to seven layers of deeper meanings. Words also have a unique power (mana).
The root words of ALOHA are a, lo, ha, alo, and loha. By looking at the meanings of each root word of “aloha,” a deeper alternative meaning emerges: “the joyful exchange of energy in the present.”
This deeper meaning is more descriptive of the intent and concept of ALOHA. It means to live in joy in the present moment and let that joy within you reach out and activate the joy that lives within the other. It is a way of looking at the world and being grateful for the abundance of life. It embraces the true meaning of family and recognizing your important place in the world.
The teachings of Huna are filled with such wisdom, deeper understandings of consciousness, and practical ways of strengthening relationships within the self, with others, and the world.
