Why a year
Most programs last a few weeks, which is exactly the period when enthusiasm carries itself. A year also covers everything after that: the crowded weeks, the tired months, the stretch in February when nothing seems to be working. A habit that survives month nine is worth more than one that impresses in week two, and a year is long enough to find out which kind you have built.
Rituals is built on a simple observation from our clinical work. People who struggle to keep healthy habits rarely lack information, since information about sleep, food, and movement is available everywhere. What they usually lack is a place where it becomes visible why a habit falls at exactly the moment it falls, and a team that stays with them long enough to work on that.
Three specialists, three tracks, one group
The therapy group · Laura Stoia-Djeska, psychotherapist A closed therapy group in transactional analysis, running the full year, with psychoeducational maps and tools where they help. Most habits break for relational and emotional reasons, and in a group that stays together for a year your patterns appear in real time, in front of people who come to know you, with a psychotherapist present while they appear.
Health and nutrition · Oana Enache, medical doctor and nutritionist Twenty sessions on sleep, food, energy, the microbiome, and how your body responds to what you ask of it. Because one person holds both the medical picture and the nutrition, those two conversations happen together rather than in separate appointments.
Movement · Eliza Luca, fitness specialist Two workouts a week, on Tuesday and Thursday mornings, adapted to each participant. They continue through August, when the live sessions pause.
The three specialists work from one shared picture of each participant, so what one of them learns reaches the others.
What is included
- 42 live sessions on Monday evenings at 20:00, on Zoom: an opening session, 20 therapy group sessions, 20 health and nutrition sessions, and a closing session
- An individual nutritional evaluation with Oana Enache, based on bloodwork you arrange separately, with a written report, repeated once during the year and discussed again at the closing session
- Validated questionnaires for anxiety, depression, and habits at the start, repeated later so change becomes visible in data as well as in how you feel
- Two workouts a week all year, including August
- A WhatsApp community for the whole year, moderated by Laura Stoia-Djeska, Oana Enache, and Monica Ganea, OmniBloom's Care Coordinator
- All program materials, which remain yours after the year ends
How the year is structured
Monday sessions alternate weekly between the therapy group and health and nutrition. There are no sessions on the two Easter Mondays, 29 March and 3 May, and none in August, when only the workouts continue.
The therapy group moves through six modules, each of three sessions:
- My body and what it tells me · January to February. Sensations and emotions as information, stress responses, and learning to read the links between sensation, emotion, and thought.
- Ego states · March to April. Parent, Adult, and Child: how your inner voices formed, how they sound, and how far your goals are yours rather than theirs.
- Life script · April to May. The story you tell about yourself and the world, the role you took early on, and whether it is time to write the next act differently.
- First recontracting session · June. The group looks together at where each person stands against what they set out to do.
- Injunctions and drivers · June to July. The early rules about how it was acceptable to be, the pressures to be perfect, strong, pleasing, or fast, and what they cost you now.
- Relational needs · September to October. What healthy relating looks like, which of your needs are met and which are consistently frustrated, and what you can change.
- Second recontracting session · October. A review before the final stretch, and a joint decision on the last module's theme.
- Open theme · November to December. Left open deliberately for whatever the year shows needs attention.
The health and nutrition sessions follow the seasons: sleep, hormones, and energy in winter; fasting, balanced meals, and protein in spring; hydration, movement, and metabolism in summer; immunity, the microbiome, and winter nutrition in autumn. Oana adjusts the order to the group's bloodwork and questions.
Why a therapy group helps habits hold
A closed group that stays together for a year does something information alone cannot. You see how you react in relationship with others, as it happens, and the patterns that show up there are the same ones that show up at home and at work.
The group also notices when you withdraw, which is exactly the moment most programs lose people. Practising something alongside others who are practising the same thing is a different activity from practising it alone.
Price
€3,200 for the year, or €300 per month
Monthly payment totals €3,600 across the year, so paying annually saves €400. The program is invoiceable, including to a company, and a contract sets out the full terms, including withdrawal.
Good to know
Attendance. Oana's sessions are recorded and stay available, so they can be caught up. Therapy group sessions are not recorded, because recording changes what people can say. You can miss around five of them across the year; beyond that, continuity in the group starts to suffer and we talk together about what to do.
Confidentiality. Everyone signs a confidentiality agreement at enrolment, participants and specialists alike.
Joining. The group is closed once it starts, so there are no new participants during the year, and places left by anyone who leaves are not refilled. This is what makes the group safe enough to be useful.
Alongside other support. Rituals can sit alongside individual therapy or other work you are already doing, and you are welcome with a diagnosis such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, or trauma. No homework is compulsory between sessions.
Time commitment. Around four hours a week: two in workouts and two in the Monday session.
Individual sessions. Optional one-to-one sessions with Laura, Oana, or Eliza, and with other OmniBloom specialists, can be booked separately.
Who this is for
For people who want change that is still there next year, who can keep one evening a week free for a year, and who are willing to work in a small group where others come to know them.
Who this is not for right now
For anyone in an acute crisis who needs individual clinical care first. For anyone who cannot keep one evening a week for a year. For anyone looking for a single module rather than a whole program. And for anyone who wants the results without the group, since the group is the method rather than an added feature.
If you recognise yourself here, tell us. We have other formats, so a short conversation before enrolling helps us see together what fits.
