Our Mission
Welcome to Nooredel, "The Light of the Heart." Our name, rooted in the Persian language, Farsi, reflects our dedication to illuminating pathways and fostering heartfelt connections.
At our wellness center, we offer holistic retreats and personalized care aimed at enhancing the well-being of everyone we serve.
Our mission is to provide opportunities to learn holistic methods that promote inner peace and collective well-being.
We deeply value scientific principles, integrating them into our practices wherever possible.
Guided by mindfulness, a core principle of our organization, we remain a non-religious entity, free from rigid doctrines or specific religious beliefs.
Join us at Nooredel on a journey towards balance, peace, and holistic health.
Inner Harmony Through Meditation, Rhythm, & Breathwork
Soroush Shouri, a psychologist, meditation instructor, and musician, is the founder and serves as a guiding force behind our retreats. Soroush intertwines music with methods from modern psychology.
He has more than 10 years of experience as a clinical psychologist, using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) across various therapeutic interventions. Additionally, he incorporates MBCT, or Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, which is a therapeutic approach that combines principles of cognitive therapy with mindfulness practices.

Rhythmic breathwork
This transformative experiential practice combines deep and rhythmic breathing with rhythmic music, facilitating altered states of mind. Research suggests that controlled breathing techniques, coupled with rhythmic auditory stimuli, can induce meditative-like states.
Studies indicate that breathwork sessions lead to the release of repressed emotions by activating the limbic system and promoting emotional processing. The rhythmic breathing patterns used in this practice are linked to improved emotional regulation, allowing access to deeper emotional depths.
Music journey
Soroush guides music journeys and drum circles, where participants are immersed in a unique fusion of rhythms. Drum circles have been scientifically proven to synchronize brain waves, inducing a state of relaxation and fostering a deeper sense of interconnectedness.
Research indicates that engaging in rhythmic activities like drumming can promote emotional expression, reduce stress levels, enhance creativity, and improve social bonding. By participating in these rhythmic experiences, individuals can benefit from a holistic approach to well-being, nurturing their mental, emotional, and social dimensions.
Nooredel also engages in collaborations with a broad network of committed and seasoned teachers, whose expertise encompasses a wide range of disciplines.
