New monthly letter arriving in your inbox now đź’Ś
Wherever life has invited you into an unexpected embrace this month, I hope you’re able to meet yourself there lovingly.
With love,

Today at Ourano, we shared two Yin & Sound sessions, exploring the space between deep relaxation and conscious rest. These sessions are a blend of restorative movement, guided breathwork, meditation, and immersive sound. It was an opportunity to slow down, reconnect, and simply be.
Thank you to everyone who joined me today. Grateful for your presence that contributed to such a beautiful experience.
There will be one more Yin & Sound session for the year, coming up in October. New dates will be available online tomorrow.
I look forward to sharing this restful practice with you again soon.
With love,

Mid-year as a business at least for me always offers an opportunity to recalibrate.
This is our 16th year in service. From the very beginning we’ve always focused on quality over quantity. And after our physical expansion (almost 3 years ago now) it’s been so deeply about refining….what is working, what is sustainable and what is connecting us to the values that have guided us from the beginning. Equally, it’s about being honest about what isn’t working, what we’ve outgrown and what is asking to be released.
I feel right in the belly of life at the moment both personally and professionally. Some things are certainly easier to digest than others but at the core of it I’m simplifying, strengthening foundations, having more fun and creating more space for the things that matter most. The things that create connection, feel purposeful, and can be maintained with quality, consistency and presence.
Ourano is continually maturing in her own beautiful way. It feels like a very important part of my job as the steward here to simply listen and be guided by what’s next.
So this week found me journaling in each room of the studio. Moving from corner to corner, allowing each space to offer its own perspective. I approach this the same way you would connect intentionally with your body.
I’m listening, visioning and writing…some of what I hear leads back to what already exists. Some ideas are tweaked. Others are let go of. New offerings begin to take shape. And some feel like a gentle nod of, “you know.”
I’ve always found something powerful about changing your vantage point in a place you are so familiar with and discovering messages and perspectives you would have otherwise missed. Try it.
Perhaps that’s what this season gives us…we can pump the brakes on racing forward for what’s next and just take a second and create a little space to hear what has been awaiting our attention.
In gratitude,
Ourania x

So when someone meets you, enters your space, hears your voice, or observes the way you move through the world, they are encountering more than just a single moment of you. They are observing a living composition and culmination of every experience, every heartbreak, every lesson, every season of growth that has shaped you…..

Have you ever been there for someone in a way that helped them, just by being naturally you, without even trying?
This was the question I posed to the group at the beginning of one of our weekly meditation classes this month.
I used this as the starting point to the theme of practice that night…an ode to emanation.
