The Way of the Goddess
Hello, my name is Maria.
I'm a Soundhealing Priestess and guide to feminine spirituality in Crete, the island of the Old Europe. For more then 3000 years, on this island, the Goddess was worshipped. Feminine spirituality prevailed, culminating in a prosperous and peacful society, where ritual, art and connection to nature and animals was not separated from daily life and community.
I feel deeply connected to the the Goddess, she can be found in the wild nature of Crete and in the mystical ancient culture and sites of the so called Minoans.
On your journey with me on Crete you will experience unique magical and spiritual moments where you will deepen the connection to your Inner Self. Your experience will be guided by the 'Way of the Goddess'.
My work is based on sound and nature as a somatic experience. It is a new approach to experience your body and soul and to find deep connection to nature, your sorroundings and ultimately to yourself & other human beings, animals, plants, the Earth.
The sound of the gongs works with your body. The deep tones shake the body cells like water. You feel like bathing in cosmic music, which opens space for new visions, relaxation and re-alignment with your natural state of peace and trust. Through melting sound, nature and the Way of the Goddess, I offer a unique approach that leads to vision, personal enrichment, spiritual guidance, healing and a new sense of belogning.
My work makes space for soul.
„I remain in a state of owe and deep gratitude to the space of wonder and profound healing Maria creates. Composed by the skilled master, the moment you enter into this sacred shrine of sounds and frequencies and let it permeate your being - something magical begins to happen within…" Review of Alex Zaltzman
The Way of the Goddess can be experienced...
...as an experience that brings you closer to yourself
...as something that is not imposed on you, but as a higher force that exists within you, as a higher version of yourself in which you find your connection to the Goddess herself
...as self-empowerment
...as gentleness and a receptive act
...as something that exists within you
...as something to be found as deep trust in the flow of nature
...as the life-giving force that is Nature aka Goddess
...as a source of fulfilment
...as introspection and not external projection
...as harmony, joy and motivation
...as inner confidence in your life path as a chosen path created by yourself and your soul
...as a meeting at eye level with the divine as a divine version of you
...if you wish to experience a rebirthing, a return to the womb, the darkness, the awakening of the senses you had access to before birth, when your sight was not yet developed but your hearing was
...as a listening experience
...as a spiral into the essence of your soul and the essence of life
