Oriah è prima di tutto una narratrice, un'amante delle parole, dei simboli e delle storie che elevano il nostro spirito, aprono i nostri cuori e offrono modi per vedere schemi e creare significato nelle nostre vite. Il focus della sua vita e del suo lavoro è stata un'indagine continua sul Mistero Sacro. La sua scrittura, il suo insegnamento e il suo viaggio personale esplorano come ognuno di noi possa diventare l'individuo che è al livello più profondo dell'essere, e come possiamo co-creare significato insieme nel mondo. Mescolando umorismo, intuizione e compassione per le nostre lotte umane, Oriah incoraggia se stessa e gli altri a essere spietatamente onesti e infinitamente gentili verso i propri punti di forza e di debolezza.

The poem Invitation has been recited and quoted at countless spiritual conferences, and on network radio by Robert Bly, Jack Kornfield, Angeles Arrien, and many other spiritual leaders. From the Invitation: ȴ doesn′t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart′s longing.
