Energetic Soul Reset Retreat with Athena Zinich

Sattva Land

Divorce, job loss, and other life changes can increase anxiety and emotional trauma. Yet, experts agree that thinking your way through them doesn’t work. How then, do we regain clarity, calmness, and happiness?

For most of us, we simply try and ignore bad feelings and push them aside. Unfortunately, this never works. The only way to rid yourself of your bad juju is to deal with it. And the way you do this is to learn to release bad memories and hurt energetically.

Drawing on her empathic nature as an energy conduit, and a healer, who locates and releases trauma and emotional blocks, Athena Zinich leads guests on a transformative soul journey away from pain and into light. During this powerful four-day retreat you’ll learn how to release energetic memories and feelings that are stuck in your body that keep you in a perpetual state of unease and distress. In this safe and supportive environment, Athena will guide you through the darkness and teach you to reconnect with the true you.

Athena Zinich

Master Empath & Energetic and Emotional Surrogate

Through the twists and turns of my life’s journey, I’ve embraced my empathic abilities that let me connect deeply with others and understand their inner workings. This incredible sensitivity was finely crafted in the forge of my challenging upbringing. 

Alongside this, I’ve naturally honed a skill for keen insights, developed by closely observing people during my formative years. I have been granted remarkable gifts – one of which is the ability to catch glimpses of people’s life stories, like watching vivid scenes unfold before me. This allows me to pinpoint pivotal moments in their personal histories. 

Drawing from a wealth of experience as an energy guide for musicians, political figures, and artists, I’ve gained the wisdom to provide valuable advice that spans the vast spectrum of life. I hold the capacity to tap into a wellspring of knowledge for personal growth, business ventures, relationships, and the diversity tapestry of existence.  

My role involves imparting the wisdom of introspection, enabling individuals to peer into their own mirrors and uncover the insights imperative for their growth.

That’s why I’m drawn to environments that are safe and dependable, where I can work behind the scenes without drawing unnecessary attention. It’s reassuring to know that I possess a deep-seated courage that enables me to face any situation with confidence, knowing that I’m safeguarded by an innate sense of protection. Another aspect of my expertise is the ability to silence myself, attuning to the Other, which I believe is the truest form of my gift and ability.
