Mirit Omrzel was a renowned Slovenian author, ethnologist, musician, educator, and spiritual teacher whose work inspired many people across the region. She regularly held retreats and workshops at Lotus Resort from the very beginning of our holistic activities in 2021, returning each spring and autumn with her students and community.
Dr. Omrzel dedicated her life to exploring consciousness, natural healing, music, and ancient wisdom traditions. Her presence left a lasting mark on the spirit of the resort and its community.
In autumn 2024, she peacefully passed on, leaving behind a rich legacy of knowledge and inspiration. Today, her son Tine continues her work, and the Veduna Katedra remains active through retreats, workshops, and educational programs.
