At the heart of Lumina is a longing: for every woman to feel the joy of being fully alive.
Lumina is for women who feel their lives could hold more colour, creativity and moments that make them feel truly alive. A place to follow your curiosity and discover what truly lights you up, the spark in your eyes, the glow of your skin and the magnetic presence of a woman who feels fully alive.
Lumina’s first program is the Seven Layers of Light, a beautifully filmed online creative program you experience from home. Guided by seven women, each bringing her own expertise, it invites you into seven different ways of feeling, creating and enjoying being in your body.
Along the way, you create your own deeply personal artwork: the LUMINA Body & Mind Map.
Seven Layers of Light is a beautifully filmed online program that you can experience from your own home.
Through seven themes, you explore different ways of feeling alive: through dance, poetry, sensuality, sound, the world of herbs and flowers, the art of feeling, and a guided journey of reflection, integration and celebration.
In every part, a different expert shares her knowledge and guides you through embodiment practices. As you move through the program, everything you feel and discover becomes part of your LUMINA Body Mind Map, a deeply personal artwork you create layer by layer.
No artistic experience is needed. We guide you through every creative step.
Together, these seven layers invite you to learn, feel, express and create - and reconnect with the joy of feeling fully alive.
Explore each of the Seven Layers
LAYER 1 — THE ART OF FEELING
Connect with your three main centres through feeling and drawing.
Guided by Marie

What would your heart look like if you could draw what you feel?
Through unique artistic guidance, you connect with and draw your three powerful feminine centres onto your Body & Mind Map: your heart, your throat and the space of your womb.
As you give each centre its own lines and shapes, your connection to it deepens and becomes visible.
This is where your Body & Mind Map begins.

A series of creative writing practices show you how to turn feelings, memories and everyday moments into poetry.

Weave every layer into one living expression of your light.
Guided by Lex

What if everything you felt, created and discovered through all seven layers could come together inside of you?
Through a deeply guided remembrance, you travel back through all seven layers, reconnecting with what you felt, what moved you and what you created.
As you feel it all again, the seven layers come together as one celebration within you.
As a final gift, soul songwriter Lex shares the Lumina Soul Song with you.
With mica stardust and golden flakes, you weave everything together on your Body & Mind Map.

LUMINA Body Mind Map
Created by you
The LUMINA Body Mind Map is a deeply personal artwork you create as you move through the Seven Layers of Light. No two are ever the same.
In each layer, you express what you felt and experienced on a canvas with the outline of a woman’s body already drawn for you, using watercolour, gold, silk thread, pressed flowers, vintage papers, stardust and so much more.
As your canvas comes to life, it becomes an extraordinary, deeply personal artwork that reflects your body, your journey, your creativity and your light. It is yours to hang in your home, share with family and friends, fall in love with and return to again and again.
As part of Seven Layers of Light, you receive the LUMINA Collection Box, delivered to your home. Inside, you’ll find the canvas, a wooden hanging frame and all the art materials you need to create your Body Mind Map.
Created by women who experienced the Seven Layers of Light
“After the layer of sensuality, I felt more radiant. I even noticed it in the way people responded to me on the street. It felt so light and playful.”
— Lieke
“Without any creative experience, something beautiful flowed from my hands that I never imagined I was capable of creating. I still look at it and think, wow, I made this.”
— Synara
“From the guided films and the materials chosen for each layer to the way everything looked and felt, I could feel how much beauty and care had gone into every little detail.”
— Mafalda
“At 67, I experienced how beautiful it is to keep meeting new parts of myself, awakening my creativity and feeling alive. It is never too late for a journey like this.”
— Margit
“My Body & Mind Map now hangs in my home, and I couldn’t be prouder. The reactions it receives keep opening new conversations and extending the journey.”
— Juliette
LUMINA X INNER VISION
A gift within every layer
Every layer begins with a 22-minute INNER VISION journey — a unique collaboration between artists and neuroscientists.
Through breathtaking visuals, sound and the sensory language of nature, each journey brings you into the present moment, ready to feel, receive and create.

Daphne's Story
What happens when the light that made you feel fully alive, suddenly disappears from your own life?
I have always been fascinated by light.
Not the kind we switch on.
The light we recognize in someone’s eyes.
That sparkle. That glow.
The way a woman can walk into a room and somehow light up the space.
That unmistakable feeling of being fully alive.
For as long as I can remember, I had felt deeply connected to that light within me.
Until something happened.
I got into a serious car accident.
For months, my world became very small.
My light had quite literally been dimmed.
And one question kept returning: How do I feel alive again? How do I find my light again?
That question became a journey.
Along the way, I was deeply inspired and taught by women carrying so much wisdom, each one helping to reignite a different part of my own light. And some of them are now part of the Seven Layers of Light!
Slowly, I began to see that there wasn’t just one way back to our light. There were layers.
From that place, the Seven Layers of Light were born.
I began to understand that feeling was only the beginning.
When I gave those feelings somewhere to go, when I moved them, expressed them, painted them, wrote them, created with them, something changed.
Feeling became expression. Expression became art. And together, they became one of the most beautiful ways I knew to feel fully alive.
And that’s how the dream of Lumina began.
A place where women can discover what lights them up, feel it fully, and then create from it.
Because I believe there is incredible power in joy.
In a woman feeling radiant in her own skin. In the sparkle returning to her eyes. In creating simply because it feels good to create.
I believe the world becomes a little brighter every time a woman feels more alive.
And I have experienced how magnetic that aliveness can be. How it ripples into the way you move.
The way you love.
The way you connect.
The way you create.
The way you show up in your work and in your life.
Without even realizing it, you begin to light up the space around you.
And now that the first women are experiencing the Seven Layers of Light, I receive the most beautiful messages and letters about what is opening, shifting and coming alive within them. Seeing the Body & Mind Maps they are creating, and witnessing what I once dreamed of for Lumina truly come to life,
Feels like my biggest wish coming true, and it is even more beautiful than I could ever have imagined...
I feel so honored that you’re here.
I can’t wait for you to experience Lumina and her Seven Layers of Light.
How much time will I need for Seven Layers of Light?
In Your Own Rhythm includes over 11 hours of guided films and journeys. Alongside this, we recommend allowing approximately eight hours to create the seven layers of your Body & Mind Map. So around 19 hours in total.
Together in a Live Circle Online includes seven weekly 90-minute live circles, seven 22-minute INNER VISION × LUMINA journeys, seven artistic guidance films, and the welcome and Collection Box films. You will also need personal creative time for your Body & Mind Map between the live circles.
Do I need any artistic experience?
Not at all. No artistic experience is needed.
Seven Layers of Light invites you to feel, follow what moves you and allow your own light to find its form in colour, texture, materials and words. Your creation is allowed to flow naturally.
At the end of each layer, Romy, Lumina’s artist, guides you through a beautifully filmed creative session. She shares techniques for working with watercolour, textures, threads, botanicals, papers and pigments, helping you translate what you experienced onto your Body & Mind Map.
And perhaps the most important thing to remember: you are already an artist in your own way. You are a piece of art.All you’re invited to do is trust what wants to come through.
Is the Lumina Collection Box included?
Yes. The Lumina Collection Box and the materials used throughout Seven Layers of Light are included in both ways of entering. Shipping is calculated separately at checkout.
Where do you deliver the Lumina Collection Box?
The Lumina Collection Box is currently available for delivery within Europe. Shipping is calculated separately during checkout. We are preparing to bring Lumina worldwide.
How long will I have access?
Both ways of entering include one full year of access. When joining the live circle, this includes all journey films, materials and the recordings of all seven live gatherings.
In which language is Seven Layers of Light?
The complete Seven Layers of Light journey is in English. All films, teachings, embodiment practices, artistic guidance, INNER VISION × LUMINA journeys and live online gatherings are offered in English.
Do I need anything besides my Collection Box?
We recommend using headphones throughout the entire journey, especially for INNER VISION × LUMINA and the Light Muse sound journey.
For Layer 5, Wild Bloom, you will also need approximately 100 ml of your own natural or organic body oil.
When does the first live circle begin?
The first live Seven Layers of Light circle begins on Wednesday, 20th of January 2027. We meet every Wednesday for seven weeks.
What if I cannot attend a live gathering?
Every live gathering is recorded and added to My Lumina after the session. You receive access to all seven live recordings for one full year, so you can watch a missed gathering or return to any layer whenever you feel called.
Will I receive a Personal Light Letter?
Every woman joining the live circle receives a Personal Light Letter from Daphne after sharing her finished Body & Mind Map. For In Your Own Rhythm, the Personal Light Letter is offered as a founding gift to the first 50 Luminas.
Can I receive a refund after purchasing?
Due to the immediate access to the digital experience and the preparation and shipment of your Lumina Collection Box, purchases are final and non-refundable.
What if my Collection Box does not arrive before the live journey begins?
Registration for the live circle closes approximately one and a half weeks before the journey begins, allowing time for every Lumina Collection Box to be prepared and shipped before our first gathering.
