Are you ready to fully receive? A life of plenty and great abundance in every aspect of life is your birthright. In this program, Adora will guide you through the mystical practices of manifestation with 3 6 9 and how to harness ancient alchemical practices in a modern-day world. You will then be able to use this knowledge daily to open and receive in more harmonious and abundant ways. You will experience rare and sacred aromatics, crystal healing, and vibrational attunement to open, clear and activate your frequence and elevate your magnetic point of attraction with the universe.

Join us in The Solarium for a powerful workshop led by Rachele Scevola aka The Breath Nurse.

Rachele will guide you through a transformational breathwork session to help tap into your inner beauty, allowing you to bloom into our most vibrant, abundant, and radiant version of yourself—from the inside out.
