A ritual of remembrance

For the past seven months, my body, mind, and spirit have been practising Tantra — not as it’s often misunderstood, but as it was originally intended: a path of remembrance. At its heart, the beautifully distinct philosophy of Tantra teaches us to awaken through the richness of life itself — through sensation, presence, intimacy with experience, and the subtle movements of energy within us. It is a sacred invitation to meet life fully, consciously, and with care.

This practice entered my life during a season when everything felt fragile and precious. After a year shaped by grief and profound change, Tantra became a way home — a means of rebuilding trust in the body, staying close to sensation, and honouring the quiet intelligence that lives beneath thought. It reminded me that awakening is not about transcendence, but about presence.

Alongside this personal journey, I completed my Bio Development facilitator training last year, deepening my understanding of how the nervous system, emotional regulation, and embodiment shape our capacity for connection and meaning. For the first time, I feel ready to weave these streams together — ancient wisdom and modern science, ritual and regulation — and share them through OASIS.

This February, OASIS enters a special month of love — not the performative kind, but the kind rooted in attunement, safety, and truth. The offerings ahead are a Ritual of Remembrance: practices designed to help us return to the body, listen more deeply, and reconnect with what it means to be alive, connected, and whole.

This is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you already are.
