Ori: Nurturing Alignment Through Coolness, Character, and Inner Balance
In Yorùbá spirituality, Orí is more than the head you see in the mirror — it is your crown, compass, and the very first Òrìṣà to be honored. As the seat of destiny, Orí guides every step of your journey, shaping how you think, feel, and act.

To honor Orí is to honor the divine spark within.
