Stories of Transformation
Wow! Just wow! I literally have no words for the experience I had a Ethera ✨💫 I felt like a glass of bubbling champagne! I literally felt that my body was getting an upgrade on a cellular level. After just an hour of sitting in the middle of the room - at the very centre of all the scalar energy monitors I felt that my physical self jumped at a different level. The first thing I noticed was immediate improvement in my vision. Everything looked sharper and colours were more intense. It was a bit dizzying at the beginning, but I got used to it quite quickly. Then for few days after my first 2h session I felt that the „puzzles” were being reorganised inside me — not just physiological „puzzles”, but also mental and emotional puzzles too. The whole upgrading process lasted 3 days for me after the first visit and I feel like a new version of myself! Thank you! I can’t wait to be back :)

HEAR FROM OUR GUESTS
A space that embraces you as soon as you enter, that stimulates your curiosity but also your energy, a space that whispers to you "RELAX" and changes the vibrations in your body, spirit and soul. I recommend it without any hesitation, having worked with Vivian for years, who has not only helped and accompanied me on my personal journey of self-improvement, but has gained my complete trust and appreciation for her professional work and human mission! I feel lucky and blessed that such a place exists in Chania. Thank you dear Vivian!
