Oya Luxe Self-Care Blog

Who we are…. Oya Luxe is named after the most powerful African Goddess (or Orisha - a force of nature - as would be referred to in the original Yoruba/Santeria/Ifa) Oya. A feminine warrior, a protector of women and also a self empowered woman herself. I discovered Oya whilst learning about African religion and spirituality, as a personal interest and her energy just seemed so familiar. Oya was known to carve her own way, where there wasn’t one (her animal totem is the buffalo). She reminds me of women today as we constantly redefine and reclaim what it truly means...

A mother is the portal of souls, her body transforms a seed into life. Her body is a miracle. It cannot be recreated though it may be imitated.I give thanks today for the gift of life that I am and was divinely designed to be. Happy Mother's Day!
