"Dan’s approach to teaching is both grounded and deeply intuitive."

​

It is with deep respect and heartfelt gratitude that I write this letter of recommendation for Dan Davis, owner of Etheria, a Metaphysical Marketplace in Vincennes, Indiana. Dan is applying to teach at the Bodhivastu Center in New York, and I can think of no one more suited to guide others on their spiritual journey.

 

My connection with Dan began in June 2025 when I sought a tarot reading for my birthday. What followed was a profound transformation—not only for myself but for my husband, Garrett, as well. Over the past several months, our lives have shifted in ways we never imagined, and Dan has been a constant source of wisdom, compassion, and support throughout this awakening.

 

Dan’s approach to teaching is both grounded and deeply intuitive. When Garrett began advancing more quickly in his spiritual growth, Dan recognized my anxiety and gently helped me realign with my own path. His ability to see each person’s unique journey and offer encouragement without judgment is a rare gift.

 

In August, Garrett and I took Dan’s Reiki I and II classes, which further deepened our spiritual practice. The attunements and teachings Dan shared have become foundational to our daily lives. He continues to be available to us, always willing to listen and guide us through new questions and experiences. Importantly, Dan never pretends to have all the answers—his humility and openness make him an even more powerful teacher.

 

Dan’s loving nature, down-to-earth demeanor, and ease of communication make him an ideal mentor for anyone seeking enlightenment, regardless of where they are starting. As a couple, Garrett and I can attest to the strength of Dan’s guidance—not only individually, but in helping us grow together. In a time when spiritual growth can often lead couples in different directions, Dan helped us stay connected and evolve in harmony.

 

We wholeheartedly recommend Dan Davis for any teaching role at the Bodhivastu Center. His presence is transformative, and we are excited to see the many lives he will continue to touch.

 

With sincere appreciation,

"These classes opened up a new avenue for us to heal ourselves and to help others."

 

My name is Brenda Glasenapp,  Im a retired Respiratory Therapist. I have never had any formal training for Reiki until I took Reiki I and II from Dan Davis.

First, he made it very clear that our class was a safe and Sacred Space. We were given a brief history of this practice which was very enlightening. All questions were met with respect and care. These classes opened up a new avenue for us to heal ourselves and to help others. It was transformative and healing. Dan is a professional and genuinely wants to educate and help spread these techniques and awareness to others. He is a great educator and human. I cannot recommend Dan  highly enough.

​"I have seen miracles and lots of healing"

​

I am writing this recommendation for Dan Davis from Etheria: A Metaphysical Market Place. I have had the pleasure of attending Reiki 1 & 2 classes with Dan. I have seen miracles and lots of healing from the classes as well as(myself) having Reiki healing sessions with Dan. I myself had a chakra blocked and was able to release it in one of his classes.

                  Dan is very professional, kind and has a very gentle approach to making a client or student feel at ease and ready to learn or experience what they need at that time.

                  I feel Dan would be very beneficial to Bodhivastu Center. I appreciate Dan for what he has brought to this town and community and I will be forever grateful for him and his store.

 

Namaste,

Annette Clark

"It takes no effort to read that Dan is an energy healer."

 

Mr. Daniel Davis is a very special person. I have had the pleasure of understanding Dan as he has worn three hats: Shop Owner, Teacher, and Reiki Master. I met him first as a shop owner. The energy Dan has cultivated into his shop is very beautiful. It takes no effort to read that Dan is an energy healer. For this reason, when I had discovered he was offering reiki courses, I had to say yes. Dan has a joyful way of being himself as he teaches. As a teacher, Dan is organized, thoughtful, and very generous with his time.

My favorite Dan, however, is Reiki Master. I had a golden opportunity to work with Dan in my spa. We offered a duo package of sound healing and reiki. After twenty-five minutes of sound healing with me, the client received forty minutes of a reiki session with Dan. How privileged I feel for having witnessed a dozen hours of Dan energy healing during our time together. His trust in his intuition is one of his most beautiful qualities, and never wrong. I consider myself lighter and brighter for having had the experience together.

Dan had once told me his greatest fear was not to reach his life goals. Knowing what I know, I can assure the reader that he will reach all of those goals and there is nothing to fear. The fact that the Bodhivastu Foundation is a step in his journey is a wonderful benefit to all of those involved. As a true gift of nature, time with Daniel Davis is special. Embrace him and enjoy.

Sincerely,

Betsy Loeb
