When I read how beautiful and spiritually rich meetings Sandra prepares for you in connection with dance and the archetypes of Greek goddesses, I was able to propose to her what is now becoming a reality. I myself have been lecturing for almost decades about art and culture and the beliefs of ancient cultures, so I feel the Greek and goddesses of other ancient civilizations to the bone. Now, after a new decade of mission, knowledge and experience in aromatherapy, this gave me a logical and conscious idea, what would it be like if, with the art of making natural pure ~ fume, which I feel with my whole body, soul and heart, I create aroma that would embody the qualities of a certain goddess, while at the same time bringing a "healing'' aspect to all the challenges that this goddess faces. Or in other words, because we all carry parts of each Greek goddess in us, only that some of them are more or sometimes less pronounced, with Small Daily Rituals we can support ourselves with "trapped" aroma of a goddess that we feel most at the moment and naturally help support the healing processes within us. This is how my "Aromas of Goddesses ~ Natural PureFume Line'' was created, created just for your gatherings. I can't wait for you to experience them and report back to me about everything they bring to your life.
Sandra will include them in her workshops for a fragrant addition to her work and for your deeper experience. At the first meeting, I will gratefully give you a sample of this precious created aroma for Persephone. Bottles of Aromas of Goddesses ~ Natural PureFume Line will always be available at the workshops, which you can take home in exchange for your contribution to the creation of the divine formula.

"New insights were born within me with your explanation of individual Goddess traits, related to the archetypes and behaviour of each goddess. I recognised my behavioural patterns in many Goddesses and got a good explanation and connection to why it works that way. Through the explanation of the properties of Goddesses I realised that these characteristics are somehow predetermined by the birth of inner Goddess. The most interesting thing for me is, that we can transcend these patterns and call in another Goddess when we want:) I recommend Embodying of Greek Goddesses Workshop to every woman to recognise her female qualities and to get to know the dormant goddesses, to if necessary, activate them. In this way, woman can get to know each other better and see how many possibilities still exist on our path and how simple it is to be what we want and to attract into our lives what we desire to enrich our lives on all levels."

"Of all things in life, I miss dancing the most, free, with carefully chosen music and in good company. Sandra, what a courage, we need this work more than we realize. I find it great that you have highlighted the sub-aspects. At my age, I can say that I have experienced and transcended the workings of all seven selected archetypes - aspects of myself that we can see as the seven goddesses because I have a full, intense life. The old Wise Woman is waiting for me, which I am preparing for. With all respect. Last night seemed to me the right measure of presentation and practice. To allow ourselves playfulness and insight.Designing altars is a very nice gesture. It is too precious to me to have met young, beautiful women; each with its own story and presence.Sincerity, beauty and vulnerability. Circle of support and contact with earth and sky, elements. Voice. Confidence in the workings of femininity, because somehow you know that everyone will take care of something. Seeing a danced out body, Sandra, is a particularly beautiful experience. Thank you!"

"Quite a few of these AHA moments were stringed while listening, and then at home. I see that I don't lack ideas, but it's hard to get them - I give birth to the world. I look ugly at Aphrodite, who creates everything so easily, and I understand my anger at her. This light-hearted attitude of hers would come in handy for me too. Hera is not very close to me, with her unconditional love for Zeus. It’s interesting how I recognize Greek Goddesses in the real people I have around me and see where we get stuck in our relationships. All aspects are mine, I live everything, each of the Goddesses has a place in me, Hestia burns the fire of purification and opens space for new possibilities, Athena seeks formal knowledge, walks to university, learns to live in this world of rules and likes structure, Demeter spends the days in the garden, talks to the Wind, rustling in the treetops, soaks naked in the flowing River, lets the fish caress her body, sits on a stump and watches the squirrels play, and fights wildly to keep her piece of green paradise clean and non-toxic. Artemis responds when special knowledge is required, such as from experience not written in letters and words. Which we recognize in dance, body movement, touch ... which in a way just fall into us, as if an ancient record is awakened in the cells. Persephone teaches me about shadows, about my underworld, those sides of myself that the world / I do not accept that are “dark and gloomy”. I’m glad she dives into these abysses in cyclical rhythms, and pulls everything repressed into the light out of them. Aphrodite and Hera are a little foreign to me, so I tried to embody them with dance. But I see that an additional dance class will be needed. We’ll see what else Persephone brings from the cold tunnels of the underworld. A job in the hardcore industry, experience and everything else trained me to look at things very rationally, intellectually, I count everything. I leave very, very little space for the voice of the heart. It’s like living in two worlds, one where Athens is the only and main one, the other where everyone else is dancing. And if I wanted something for myself, it was for everyone else to have more time, more of my attention, and more opportunities to express themselves in the world. Sandra thank you for your presentation, for your presence, for the dance.Thank you, really from the heart."
