Our story.
The name SOM OSU reflects ancient Sanskrit concepts of nourishment and care, reinterpreted for modern life.
Soma (सोम)
A term associated with nourishment, vitality, and essence, historically linked to sustenance and life force.
Aushadha (औषध)
Refers to plant-based substances and herbal nourishment, traditionally used as part of everyday care.
Together, SOM OSU reflects a grounded approach to wellness, one rooted in what sustains, rather than what overwhelms.
Our approach.
We exist to simplify modern wellness.
In a landscape crowded with extremes, trends, and quick fixes, we take a more considered path, valuing consistency over noise and clarity over excess.
Our products are crafted using carefully selected ingredients, blended with filtered water and prepared in small batches with care. Every formulation is intentional, every ingredient is clearly listed, and nothing is included without purpose.
Rooted in traditional knowledge and prepared to meet modern quality standards, SOM OSU is designed to integrate seamlessly into everyday life, something steady you can always return to.
Less noise. More intention.
What makes us different?
We don’t build for scale first.
Our products are prepared in small batches, allowing us to stay close to what we make, we prioritise familiarity, consistency, and long-term use over constant reinvention.
I didn’t create SOM OSU with wellness culture in mind. I came to it by studying and paying close attention to patterns in my own life.
As life became fuller and more demanding, I grew curious about what I reached for when things felt unsteady and what quietly stopped working. In time, I noticed that what grounded me wasn’t dramatically impressive or trendy. It was simple and asked very little of me beyond showing up.
Natural food, a simple daily routine, and traditional practices became my anchors. They made life easier, but they also taught me something bigger: that consistency matters more than perfection, and that wellness and care work best when they are easy to return to.
My current perspective on wellness was initially inspired by Sri Lanka, a small island just off the southern coast of India, where the traditional approach to wellness has long been understood to be something you maintain daily, through observation, food, and routine.
So producing our first selection of products there felt natural.
This was a return to where my ideas first took shape and a reminder that care often begins the same way: by coming back to ourselves.
SOM OSU is an extension of what I’ve learned over the years about intentional living, made tangible, and designed to fit into modern life.
