OH MAGAZINE  |  ISSUE 62 AUTUMN 2021  

Can you keep a secret? In this, our slow and mellow autumn issue, we explore the ways in which we share our inner hopes, wildest wishes and silent shadows (even if only with our selves). From the ever-growing (and unifying, universal) language of emojis, to the historical mysteries surrounding homeopathy, we navigate the little-known paths that take us to unexpected places. We explore both the importance of facing our own demons within the pages of a personal diary while also celebrating the creative benefits of visual storytelling via social media. Secrets, we learn, can be a source of passionate inspiration – fuelling us to follow our dreams irrespective of societal expectation. From the pilgrims who walk out in search of life’s truths, to the artists who find answers in nature’s featherlight brushstrokes, this secret issue was nevertheless made to be shared – because good things happen when we listen to each other.

Oh is about new ways of looking inside ourselves and out at the world. A bimonthly mindfulness magazine with a fresh perspective – where mindfulness is the good stuff we knit into our days, in the most ordinary ways. You’ll find ample time to reflect and feel, to pause, question and notice; gentler ways to be and do, to live and play. We’re an arms-wide-open mag – inclusive, down-to-earth, and heart-led. You won’t find long lists of stuff to do, buy and ‘be’ in oh – instead, there are long and transporting reads and deeply human first person stories that celebrate the humble, the frugal and the plentiful; the magic in the mundane, and the unsung beauty of the unnoticed. With beautiful photography and illustration at its heart, oh is a place to meet new people, hear their stories and leave you looking at life a little differently.
