It takes you from yourself to yourself” (Rumi). Join Rita Melissano and support her work, so many can benefit, and the Teachings of The Way of Love can be preserved and shared.

These two events grabbed the attention of our community, the media, and the medical field. However, I realized that in order to expand and go to the next level I had to create my own Center and keep my commitment to raise awareness and bring the best complementary alternative healing methodologies to the Q.C. community in …One Sacred Space. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/1618356914825-TOXXJRRBKA171SFH5COO/20201115_144950.jpg Satva Story https://www.thewayof.love/her-poetry daily 0.75 2026-01-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/6492f7ce-6c09-4691-adfc-04749653721b/RitaWingsDragon.jpg Her Poetry https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/926d445c-6108-481a-8905-c0db64419668/Screenshot+2026-01-08+at+1.40.36%E2%80%AFPM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/3a254bbe-5491-45b8-8005-c208d8c0c553/Screenshot+2026-01-08+at+1.41.03%E2%80%AFPM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/92a1a905-22b0-4d12-a0a4-0152e9798406/20230128_125220.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/75c57384-53e0-4df5-b56f-4e7c44a3dad6/IMG_4098+%287%29.jpg https://www.thewayof.love/photo-gallery daily 0.75 2021-04-14 https://www.thewayof.love/photo-gallery/seasons monthly 0.5 2021-04-13 https://www.thewayof.love/photo-gallery/project-three-hm3yl monthly 0.5 2021-04-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fc4fa6cbf71053ccb29e03b/b02944f4-93c9-43e4-b017-4ddf4f5ec72c/20201227_163827.jpg Photo Gallery -
