It was so much more than a training!

20/11/25

The sound healing course with Manolis was so much more than a training, it was a journey into the world of sound and inner silence. His energy, love, and grounded presence created a safe and inspiring space for learning, where every sound became an experience of connection and awareness. Through his clarity and heartfelt guidance, Manolis shared not only techniques but also the essence, the respect, intention, and presence that true sound healing requires.
It opened new perspectives on working with singing bowls and left me with a deep sense of gratitude. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who feels the call of sound!

One of the best trainings I have attended

2/2/23

I had the privilege of attending a two-day sound therapy seminar in Chania with Manolis Zografakis, and it was an incredible experience. As a massage therapist, I wanted to complement my therapies with Tibetan Singing bowls. Manolis’ deep knowledge and expertise in the field of sound healing and Sonic massage with the Tibetan singing bowls provided a comprehensive understanding of the practice. The training was suitable for beginners like myself, and I left feeling equipped with practical techniques and protocols for using singing bowls in my own meditation and healing practices. Although I don’t play any musical instruments and have no knowledge of music theory, I felt comfortable during this sound healing course. Manolis’ guidance and explanations helped me understand the idea behind sound therapy and how to use the singing bowls as a healing modality for my practice. I highly recommend this training to any professional interested in sound healing.
