It all started when we were reading a blog entry about my brother who is sailing across the pacific in a traditional waka. He shared how due to the calm weather the crew had been getting frustrated and angry with each other and their current lack of wind and that many were feeling "the taniwha within" stirring.
In Room 13 we continued using the metaphor of the Taniwha to explore what frustrates and angers us. We developed strategies for preventing or channeling our anger so that we don't hurt those around us.
We have also been using the "The Taniwha Within" in our writing and have started an art piece that will integrate everything that we have done.
