Balancing the Ọ̀kà n and Orà in Yorùbá Spirituality
In Yorùbá spirituality, balancing the Ọ̀kà n (heart) and Orà (inner consciousness) is essential for inner harmony and spiritual well-being. The Ọ̀kà n guides our emotions and relationships, while the Orà connects us to destiny and divine wisdom. Through mindfulness, ritual, and compassion, we nurture both aspects, cultivating resilience, clarity, and authentic living aligned with Àṣẹ, the sacred life force.
