Dria Murphy Hosts Second Annual by dria Wellness Morning at Shou Sugi Ban House

On July 11, Dria Murphy brought by dria Wellness Morning back to Shou Sugi Ban House in Water Mill, New York, for a second summer, gathering founders, creatives, editors and premium members of the by dria community for a curated morning built around movement, beauty and connection.

Notable attendees included Molly Sims, Kate Love, Sophie Elgort, Jennifer Fisher, Rebecca Minkoff, Elizabeth Kurpis, Talia Parkinson Jones, Cyndi Ramirez-Fulton, Michelle Grant, Sabrina Rudin and Kelly Turlington Burns.

The morning began in the meditation hall with a mat Pilates class led by ETHĒA founder Matt, whose acclaimed Tribeca studio is known for its precision-driven approach, built for resilience rather than burnout, a fitting entry point into a morning designed to feel restorative rather than depleting. Guests then moved to the solarium deck, where Shou Sugi Ban House Executive Chef Patrick O’Grady served signature breakfast bites alongside Nekohama matcha and coffee.

Every detail was chosen by Murphy herself, right down to the gift bags waiting on each mat, stocked with her go-to summer wellness picks.

“Connecting a community of like-minded women who want to take a moment of self-care,” Murphy said in her opening remarks.

This marked the second annual by dria Wellness Morning at Shou Sugi Ban House. The next by dria Wellness Morning will take place Aug. 1, once again at Shou Sugi Ban House, with new brand partners and programming to be announced.

The by dria membership offers hand-selected product recommendations, wellness experiences and lifestyle practices designed to help members discover what’s genuinely worth their time, energy and investment. Saturday’s Wellness Morning marked one of the members-only in-person events included with premium access.
