Robyn spent a week with us in November 09
“The most amazingly positive experience I had recently – from start to finish – was when. I visited Heartland Retreat run by Les and Trudi Dyer. From my first email contact to the moment Les personally farewelled me, this couple and this retreat under-promised and over-delivered. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything and everyone was gracious, giving and reliable (as long as you understand that Les’s time is oneish, twoish… you are told that upfront and it suits the nature and ethos of this gorgeous establishment).”

Robyn Pulman, International Conference Speaker & Organisational Coach
“Creating Winning Habits” (www.robyn.com.au)

As well as touching me personally, I often refer your messages to my coaching clients for their reflection. Your words say many things that are deep within their own hearts, and not yet so courageously expressed, and I thank you for this unique gift that you so willingly share.

Fond love and blessings always,

Kerry visited us for a 5 day retreat in October 2009…..
I had a wonderful time during my visit to heartland. I reconnected with myself and came home a different person. Thank-you, Les, for your wonderful lessons. Thanks to you, Trudy, my creativity has been ignited and I have started making my own Christmas cards. This is a huge step for someone who struggled to get out of bed in the morning and had lost the ability to experience joy. Can’t wait to come back.”

Margaret came in September 09……
I learnt so much in the week I was with you and you are all such beautiful people it will be so lovely when the whole world learns to live in the peace that you have all manage to create in your wonderful retreat.

Dear Les & Trudi

Since arriving back from your heavenly retreat, I have tried so many times, to so many friends, to explain what it was like….but no words can adequately describe the calmness, the peace, the love, the safety, the teachings, Oh…..and the glorious food, the art lessons, the meditations, the singing….the hugging and laughter….the beautiful, beautiful people.

My sister and I chose Heartland because we knew we needed some time out. We were stuck in a place of grief, anger, guilt and hurt……..our spirits were fading. We couldn’t move forward…….we’d forgotten who we were….and that we were all connected. We knew it intellectually – but we just didn’t ‘get it’ so that we could live it. Immediately on arrival, we could feel the loving energy and knew we had come to the right place. Each day was a wonderful blessing, slowly, tentatively, we learnt how to connect to the spirit within and remember who we are.

Les – you truly live & breathe your passion – to see all as God. Your laughter helped us remember the joy in life. We have learnt so much from listening to your talks. You have an innate sense of how to help us all with your stories. They resonate and therefore enlighten us all. Your meditations are miraculous. I have done many healing meditations before but none have ever had the effect that yours have. Every morning I do one of your meditations and I immediately recapture the energy of Heartland and it helps me to connect to all that I am.

Trudi – your beingness was a joy to watch and your food was just amazing. Thank you for planting the seed of creativity within us once again. Nick, Kellie, Kim & Zoe – thank you for your boundless supply of beautiful smiles and nourishment. The singing bowls & drumming were so much fun even if we are still trying to find our ‘rhythm’.

I now have my little bit of heaven I can return to every time I meditate, everytime I forget for an instant who I am – I return to Heartland. It is a memory that will always be with me – will always bring a smile to my face – and I hope to return home for another visit.

Love & Blessings

Jenny visited mid 2009, too….
I wanted to write and thank you for a fabulous six days last month. Being at Heartland has changed the way I see other people which makes me feel better about myself. What a great bunch of people we had too. We have been keeping in touch.

Kind regards

Karen came with friends mid 2009….
Hi Les, Trudi and everyone at Heartland,
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU. For the love, acceptance and peacefulness you so freely shared with us all. I was pensive of returning home and a little worried I would not be able to sustain feeling positive, free, peaceful and in harmony with God. Well I have and my family are greatful, curious and much more content and loving. I’m now focusing on driving negative thoughts from my mind and boldly walking where I feared to walk before. Each day I give thanks to God, that I was chosen to cross paths with you and to share a brief moment in time with you all.

With much love

Pina flew interstate to be with us in June 2009….
”To everyone at Heartland, especially Les, thank you for the inspirational talks, chanting/singing, music, creative sessions (a special thanks to Trudi!) and the whole vegetarian experience – the food was great! I returned home a changed woman. Being closer to the divine has already given me abundance, i.e. a clear perspective on my life; dealing better with fear; meditating on a regular basis; being more balanced and centred and overall being happier within myself. God bless you all at Heartland – PS: A special hello to Nicholas – what a well-mannered young man – he blew me away”.

Connie from North Queensland wrote….
We arrived safely back home on Saturday night…spending the whole journey back talking about how life-changing our stay was. I have already made changes to our family dynamics – ‘Be the change you want to see in the world.’ Our home is already calmer & more loving. I don’t think my husband can quite work out what is happening to me.
Thank you again for welcoming us, embracing us, teaching us and allowing us the wonderful blessing of being part of your family.
I have already recommended Heartland to those I know would benefit. The memory of our time at Heartland is one we will never forget.
Thank you
Blessings

Bianka wrote to us when she returned home August 2009
Thankyou for building a beautiful sanctuary and sharing it with us; for your warmth and heartfelt welcome; for your love; for sharing your wisdom; for showing me how to let go of the past; for opening my eyes and heart to living a more fulfilled and joyous life; for my new-found belief in my grand vision for the future.

I loved my time at Heartland and look forward to seeing you all again.

Barbara visited us for 6 days in June 2009…..
Dear Les,

Attending my first retreat at Heartland has in many ways saved me. I know this might sound dramatic but I really was lost. Prior to coming to Heartland, whilst I didn’t have any major life threatening illness, I had a range of various health and emotional problems that had been taking all my energy. There were making me feel so tired and confused that I not only couldn’t make decisions, I couldn’t find a way out and as the days went on I became more and more panicky about losing control everything. The doctors had done many tests and I had various parts of my body scanned but they could not find any clear reason for my health problems and my GP gave me strong anti-depressants. I took one of these tablets and the horrible side effects and my research about the drug was enough to make me wake up and think about a better plan…that’s when I booked Heartland. At Heartland, you are a wonderful family and I felt honoured to be part of your lives for that week. I felt safe because I knew no-one would be judging my performance or my strengths and weaknesses as a human being. I found a way to look for and appreciate the good in me and stop worrying about being judged. I had a huge weight lifted from my shoulders – it is hard to explain – but I returned home with a passion for meditation, feeling worthwhile, healthy and happy. Every day I still choose happiness. Sometimes I go off course but I keep choosing happiness and it has made an extraordinary difference to my life.

Yours in peace and joy

It seems like so long ago I was at Heartland with you in that wonderful light, warm, caring environment. Whenever I think of Heartland I can feel calmness and serenity. Love and thanks to both of you and all at Heartland.

Michelle enjoyed time with us in June 2009….
Hi Les,

I just wanted to say that my experience at Heartland was amazing and I’ve missed it a lot!! I don’t think you need to change a thing!

Thank you for your love and advice – i’ve never been happier since i left Heartland – my perspective on life is completely different and for the first time ever i’m excited and can see endless possibilities ahead of me. My self confidence is growing as well, (a work in progress!) and i’m starting to just enjoy each day. I dont think i’ll ever forget Heartland or the people i met there. : )

Love,

Michelle

Mary came to Heartland for a week in July 2009…..
Hi Les

Thanks again for a wonderful week. You truly are an amazing being. I have included a testimonial that you may like to include.

Before going to Heartland I had forgotten how to love. The amazing people and surroundings at Heartland really touched my heart and by the end of the week I was ready to once again share my love with everyone. Thank you Les for the words of wisdom and life experiences that have enabled me to begin healing myself.

Love and hugs

Mary

Lisa returned recently for a second visit…..
Dearest Les & Trudi,

Life for me since I came back from Heartland after Easter has been quite magical- I feel as though I have been carried on the crest of a Divine wave, my feet barely touching the ground.
I am so clear that there is only one thing I need to work on- staying in a constant state of alignment with the Divine. It so breathtakingly simple yet so painstakingly difficult to do. But I know that is the only thing to master- everything else will unfold exactly as it’s meant to. Being in a state of love, gratitude and joy. What else is there really!

My love to you both, and I cant wait to come back to Heartland.

Lisa

Jeanette from Melbourne wrote to us…..
Hi Les,

Your words were just what I needed to hear. Your words inspire me.

I achieved a lot from the time away. The discussions we all had have remained in my head and I actually listen to what people are saying (or not saying) to me a lot more clearly.

I am not such an easy target anymore. I thank you, Trudi and Heartland for this.

Love and big hugs too.
PS I miss this the most.

Jeanette.

Gabrielle came in February 2009; and emailed us…..
Good morning Wonderful friends,
I miss you guys and Heartland so much.

So much of what i learnt there rang true to me, and I am a better person for it, but it is a constant practice to try to not fall back into the old mindsets and habits….I plan to return to Heartland to concentrate on my routines in my life and in my head.

All of you are truly an inspiration to me..

Sharron from WA spent time with us in February 2009.
My stay at the retreat certainly set me up for a brighter outlook for my future and things are moving along at a wonderful pace.

Thank you for your guidance and I look forward to receiving your wonderful words of encouragement and enlightenment from time to time.

Best wishes,

Sharron

Beatrix from Sydney came to Heartland in February 2009….
It has been almost 2 months ago since I attended my first retreat at Heartland. I did not know what to expect, I just wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, reconnect with my Inner self and reflect and contemplate.

I got so much more than what I ever expected. It felt like coming home and the Love and Kindness you give to everybody is felt everywhere, where ever you go!
You genuinely care and love people and your wisdom and teachings gave me so much strengths, hope and faith in this world and myself again!

I was able to connect deeper with God and my soul, but I also felt so nurtured, nourished and full of energy and Love after the 6 day stay. It was like I had refuelled again with the best quality petrol!

Upon my arrival back into city life and into my job I have taken a new approach, I have modified my life style and I have been taking a much more positive approach into everyday situations.
I am much calmer, I have more patience and I am so much happier, enjoying every day to the fullest.

I cannot thank you enough for your Love and kindness, for all your help and support and for making my stay so special. It was my first time at Heartland, but certainly not the last time.

Please give my Love to everyone and a big hug for Will and the donkeys.

Lots of Love
God bless you all

My life is so much fuller and richer for having been there and I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to take part in the workshop. I especially loved listening to your talks and look forward to another visit down the track.

Lisa spent 6 days with us in January 2009…
From the depths of my heart I just want to say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Coming to Heartland and having the opportunity to spend 6 days with you both was an incredible gift. I have learnt so much about love, compassion, understanding… not just from your teachings, but more importantly, by the way you treat others. You are both the embodiment of Love.

Today is my first day back at work and I was committed to simply being Love and Compassion. And it has been an incredible day! I have so many insights to share with you, but for now all I can say is Thank you for giving me my life back.

I feel so alive!!! It’s incredible!!!

Love from the bottom of my heart,

Maxeen from Sydney took part in a 12 day Retreat. This is what she wrote us…
The process of bringing a group of ‘strangers’ together and creating a ‘family’ is indicative of what I have experienced every time I visit Heartland. That sense of family, oneness and harmony are from my perspective integral to the amazing healing sanctuary you provide and actively nurture at Heartland.

Having previously been blessed to visit Heartland and participate in a couple of 5 day retreats, I was attracted to the possibility of undertaking the 12 day retreat as an opportunity to delve deeper, slow down and explore some more the many aspects of self that influence the life choices I make moment to moment.

I certainly wasn’t disappointed in the opportunities and divine environments provided to do just those things. Whether it was sitting in quiet contemplation enjoying the beautiful ambiance of Heartland; enjoying excursions to the beach or mountains; walks along Meadows Lane; group sessions and discussions; sharing our stories and healing journeys; spending time exploring our creative selves; joining group meditations; enjoying the great food; and the opportunity to be of service to others, it was an enriching 12 days. A retreat I would recommend to anyone willing to give themselves a gift with the potential to empower personal healing and positive change.

The 12 days was particularly rewarding in the time it afforded us to connect on a heart level and share our healing journeys. Certainly the feeling of Oneness prospers with the opportunity to appreciate how our unique stories really just bring us into closer contact with the Oneness of our being.

The effort the entire Heartland Family invests into making everybody welcome; supporting the needs of the individual and group; whilst maintaining such an amazing healing sanctuary, is to be applauded. Those early mornings, late nights, and the seemingly endless and ever expanding to do list, from where I see, is motivated by Love. In that sense I fully agree Trudi, when you say “we are living our purpose. Simply being who we are”. You are all an inspiring example of Love in Action.

Blessings to all.
Namaste.

Maxeen

Alison lives on the Sunshine Coast with her family…
It is truly wonderful to have somewhere where people can go to feel friendship, love and trust and sincerity for their wellbeing and spiritual being. The support you give people is immessurable and the many hours that you so tirelessly devote to others with your kindness, support and friendship are indeed appreciated by many people who have had the wonderful experience off attending one off the workshops you hold; or have just needed some spiritual, emotional support or simply time to be with themselves to get back on the right path to re-connecting with the inner self.

 Thankyou for being who you are and living your dream. Because in living your dreams you help others too live their dreams. You help others to be their greatness and to become whole once again with your great sense off humour, manner, wonderful words of wisdom and teaching but most off all much needed support. You’re like RACQ insurance, “I would’nt be with out you”.

With love always.

Alison

Christine hails from northern NSW…
I would like to express my deepest thanks for the gifts you have shown me this year and I feel delighted to have shared part of my journey with you this past year.

My greatest treasure of this year is that you have shown me that all of my life, its events and the people within it, is truly, simply and exquisitely a gift.

I can choose to acknowledge this or not as the case may be and I truly know within my heart now that everything and everyone is a gift whether I like it or not. So blessings, hugs and lots of laughs for the gift of this immense gift.

Another participant wrote…
There are no words that can convey how much it means to me to for the first time in my life to have somewhere to go that feels like Home and to be embraced by Love. That feeling is priceless.

“HB” visited for healing from cancer September 2008 and recently wrote….
My first thoughts are gratitude. Today I visited my Doctor and she examined me and found no sign of any lump. You said it would be gone by Christmas – well it is gone now.

In actual fact I believe it disappeared when I was staying at Heartland not so long ago.

You helped me a great deal to look at cause and effect and to deal with that. At some stage when I was there this thought came to me: well not actually a thought, not even a belief, more like a knowing: God I am and if I am God then I am love and loved more than I can ever imagine and what happens to me in life is insignificant to my being that is loved and has always been loved and always will be loved.

So in that instant I believe the lump disappeared.

Why would I ever create illness in a body that is so loved and so full of beauty?

So thank you Les for all your help.

Love HB

Debbie from Sydney last visited late 2008…
I was eager to return home for the second time to “Heartland Retreat” for some guidance and much needed respite after some recent upheavals in my life.

As I drew in my first breath on arrival I was instantly lifted by that familiar spirit of love, acceptance, peace and harmony that I’d experienced from my previous visit … I knew I had come to the right place, at the right time.

This healing week was just perfect thanks to the dedication, expertise, insight & intuition, wisdom, humour, honesty, generosity of time and energy, understanding and unconditional love that Les offers every person who visits this unique retreat.

I was warmly invited to participate in every activity & encouraged to do inner work exercises, but also time to myself to just “be” was deeply respected and honoured. The food was exceptional and I’m very thankful for Trudi’s devotion to teaching me how to do my first salt mandala and hebel totem pole.

I have recommended this retreat to every person I meet and I look forward to my next visit.

Love Debbie H (Sydney)

Jacqui came late 2008. Her email said…
“Thankyou for such an amazing week. I feel very enlightened and in tune with my higher self. I have listened to both of your meditation cd’s and will continue my journey towards a peaceful life.

Thankyou for helping me to heal and for showing me compassion and how to forgive my partner. I have hung my painting in our home, and every day I look at the words “You are Free”.

Robyn spent time with us during our July ’08 trip to Perth and Sydney…..
Hi Les, I would just like to thank you so very much for giving your time, for the reading I received on Thursday and the workshop on Saturday. You are an amazing man. Everything you said, was brilliant, it’s given me so much to think about, about my life and my outlook on life and how I can make so many changes. My friends and I are definitely coming up to one of your retreats next year, as I feel I still have a lot to learn, a long way to progress. Once again, thank you so very much for everything. Love and blessings,

Robyn Jones (Sydney).

Astrid flew up from Victoria to share five days with us in July ’08….
Your retreat gave me back my fundamental living skills and a renewed passion for life. Thank you both so much for this transformational experience. Many blessings to you all at Heartland and to your good work.

Astrid Ritenis/Robinson (Victoria)

“From the moment I entered Heartland, my whole Being was uplifted, as my heart opened to this magnificent experience. The magic, beauty and peace of Heartland and the joyous, warm-hearted welcome from Les and Trudi, opened the gates for profound change. Les’ teachings and guidance are offered with deep love, humour and generosity enabling the shifts in my perspectives to occur with such clarity & understanding. After just one session of ‘Repairing the Net of Time’, a huge release of years of blocked energy created an immediate amazing change in my relationship and this continues to unfold. Les and Trudi’s embodiement of unconditional love and generosity of spirit, truly shows me the path of enlightenment. I am deeply grateful.”

Christine Brennan (Brisbane)

“I am ever thankful for the past week where I have been lovingly welcomed at your beautiful home & sanctuary “Heartland Retreat”. I originally planned to stay for the Healing Intensive from 3-7 March, but opted for three extra days. Les, when you greeted me with your warm smile, loving gaze and open embrace I knew I’d come to the right place for healing and nurturing. I felt welcomed, loved and included into your dear family, which became my family for an unforgettable 7 days. I will always hold you in my heart. The Healing Intensive week was fantastic and the program “Healing the Net of Time” was beyond words. I made some true connections this week.

Thank you so much for the tranquility, relaxed environment, cute green frogs, loving support, wonderful fresh cuisine lovingly prepared by Trudi, and for providing the perfect space for me to experience my True Self.”

With much love, Debbie H (Adelaide)

Shona drove up to visit us for five days in June ’08 from Brisbane …
Just a short note to say that I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Heartland.
The name Heartland is very appropriate as when I was there I felt thoroughly at home with very loving & caring people.
During my stay there I received a lot of love & support that enabled me to get my life back into balance & to continue on my personal journey. A new perspective on certain aspects in my life will enable me to make the necessary changes that I need.
Much Love & Light to you & your family

Here’s an email from Jane who attended our “Quit Sabotage” Program in June 2008
Dear Les,

Thank you once again for a most wonderful experience. When I came home on Tuesday I felt different – more relaxed, like I was floating inside. For the first time in my life I feel some peace and no longer dread waking up in the mornings to face yet another day….

Jane, Sunshine Coast

Here’s what one of our July 2008 guests wrote to us …
Hi Les!
Hope you are wonderfully well. I find myself smiling whenever I think of you and your family, which is quite a lot since leaving Heartland a couple of weeks ago. It was an amazing experience for me to stay in a place where consciousness, kindness, trust and gentle humour feel like the most natural everyday things in the world.
Thank you for giving so much to me during our personal conversations. I don’t think I realised at the time how those five days could carry on inspiring me – I know I have the option of stepping back and seeing it differently now.
With much love to you, Trudi, Peter and your beautiful family,

Maxeen took part in a 5-Day Healing Renewal during May 2008
Dear Heartland Family

When I journeyed to Heartland in May to share in your 5 Day Renewal Retreat, and then stayed on for a further 5 days, on reflection I now know I made a most special decision for myself. It was such a delight to arrive and find myself so warmly embraced by the beautiful setting, comfortable accommodation, and the most welcoming aspect of all, being the Heartland Family. It’s never been easy for me not to feel like an outsider, so it is a true testament to the sacred space enlivened at Heartland, for me to now reflect on how welcome I felt during my sojourn with you at Heartland. Bless you all for showing me that experience, it is a memory I will always treasure and look forward to repeating.

Les and Trudi, the gentle embrace of your Heartland Family is deeply appreciated as a safe place in which I was able to step into my healing journey; a truly divine experience of nurturing, acceptance and unconditional love. I thank you all for shared insights, warm company, the gift of many healing opportunities, and the chance to grow in a space of Love, to know Love.

I thank you for seeing me. I thank you for hearing me. I thank you for listening to me. I thank you for mirroring those things I found it hard to see or hear. I thank you for believing in me.

Probably the most telling testimony I can offer, is in the comment of a colleague when I eventually returned to work. In passing my work area they was compelled to stop and ask, “what are you doing sitting there sparkling in the corner”. I can never thank you enough for the sparkle I was allowed to birth from within and carry home with me from Heartland. With my deepest gratitude for that gift, from my heart I thank you all for that which you offer humanity with such Grace.

I hold you in my heart.

Love and Namaste.

Maxeen – Sydney, NSW.

Leisa, a Naturopath, wrote to us:
It was a particularly beautiful day 3 years ago when I met Les and Trudi Dyer. My friend and I attended a 5 day retreat. Not only was it thoroughly enjoyable, but I have since then been able to move through a bad state of depression, heal relationships in my life that needed mending and learn the love that I am (yes, find that peace within myself!) The food that Trudi prepares is truly magnificent – I have never tasted better vegetarian! If you are thinking of visiting Heartland, book today. You will come in contact with the the warmest, caring people and it could be the start of the biggest change in your life.

Leisa,  Gold Coast

“I have been a medical doctor for over 28 years, with a strong interest in alternative and energetic medicine as well. Several years ago I had the privilege of meeting Les Dyer and doing one of his weekend workshops, attending one of his very special 5 day retreats, and having several private consultations.
I have met many great “healers”, facilitators and motivational speakers in my time, but few measure up to the sheer magnificence of Les Dyer, both as a human being and as an enlightened and incredibly funny, light hearted, and endlessly creative teacher. His contribution to my life both in terms of these face to face guidance sessions as well as the profound wisdom found in his weekly emails and many books has changed my life forever.
So if anyone reading this testimonial ever has the opportunity to attend any of his programs or to connect with him through his books and emails, run do not walk!
Forever grateful.

“It is THE best workshop I have EVER done…I am well aware of many of my sabotages – but to be able to un-lock their relentless and merciless grip on me has been futile to say the least!! Until now…..
I am deeply grateful for meeting you Les and my respect for you (and therefore me) grows. I also am humbled by your honesty… deep honesty… you pave the way, the ONLY way for life as I feel it to go forward in a positive manner…

Hello Les,
I would like to share with you that I felt that the weekend was oh so powerful, but am sure you already know that. I am so pleased to have been able to start clarifying some of my patterns at a deeper level. I am also so thankful to have the tools to change those patterns.

I was too scared to venture out into the big world for fear of rejection, fear of change, fear of not being good enough, but with reading all of your writings I found the courage from within and decided to “give it a try”, all I can think of now is “why didn’t I do it years ago”. It is the same salary level but I am rewarded 10 fold by the love and warmth others radiate.
Thank-you Les.
May god bless you too.
Regards

Carole Henry, Australia

Dear Les,

Thank you so very much for a wonderful weekend. I truly feel that you have given me the freedom to be myself, and not live life in someone else’s shadow, in the misguided belief that I had to go through bad relationships in order to make amends for my bad treatment of men in my past lives!!!!!!!!! This was told to me by a clairvoyant many years ago. I only half believed it, but as time went by and relationships all turned out to be Mr. Wrongs I really thought that that was my lot. Then on Sat. night when I started to write down all my experiences with men…….well, the light turned on! I could see it all so clearly..
I feel a big change in myself and how I feel. Bring on Mr. Right!!!!!!!! I am so looking forward to being with you again…..Fondest love and blessings to you both and your family.

I want to write to say thankyou for the years and years of insight and help you have given me. I value so much your presence in my life and you are a ‘light’ in this world.

Sue, Newcastle

Thank you for your blessings and thank you for including us in your life.

Thank you so much for the wonderful weekend of learning, sharing and spiritual awareness. It was a remarkable time for me and I am ‘literally’ on a high. I have not stopped talking about the experience and eagerly await joining everyone again later in July. Thank you Les for your wonderful teaching and Trudi and Nicholas for your hospitality and beautiful meals.

Thank you for a fantastic weekend. Life is certainly looking different as I try to meld back into my norm. My illusions are shattering around me and what surprises me is they are the ones that I held so true.

Suzanne Novak, Sydney

What a magic weekend. I feel totally transformed! Today I felt like I really turned a corner. My energy levels had been so low – but today I felt totally different, so alive and full of love. I felt like a sponge, absorbing it all. What you two are doing is so wonderful and amazing and your vision is beautiful.

Jenni Fish, Brisbane

Thank you again for another fabulous weekend. This weekend brought a whole new beginning to my life. I see more clearly – I hear more gently and live my love to the fullest. Each weekend brings more realisation of my wholeness and my vision that I have searched for. Today is the first day of the rest of my life.

Love always, Bernadette, Brisbane

Hello Divine beings Les and Trudi,
Oh dear, what have you done? I am so on fire I can never get to sleep for long. Oh wow, oh wow, oh wow!!!! Love overflowing from my abundant heart which is fully healed now – just have to go through and eradicate the scars. Thanks!

Helen, Kilcoy

Thank you for teaching me so much and for helping me to grow! Each time I come back from the weekends I feel as if I have shed another layer of fear. Sometimes (most times) I am unaware that I have been holding on to these fears, and to release them lightens my soul. So many things that I thought I had forgotten come back into my memory after each weekend. Every day I see myself as more whole than the day before. My journey is like going for a drive through the mountains, I never know what is around the next corner and some of the drop-offs look pretty scary, but it is the most beautiful journey I could ever make. I thank you from the depths of my soul for bringing this realisation back into being!

All my, Love Lee

Thankyou for a great weekend that was peaceful and rich with beautiful people and your teachings and knowledge that can’t be find anywhere else. The course is the best thing that I have ever done in my life and I am grateful that I am part of it.

Judy Fisher, Gold Coast

Oh my God, is about all I can say at this point of time after spending a couple of days at your wonderful retreat. Thank you very much for such an awe inspiring weekend.
I learnt so much in such a short time, and will now have to revise all my notes so that I can remember to live what I learned. I was on such a high when I came home, and the response from my husband made it even better. He was INTERESTED in where I had been and what I had done, and even liked my sunflower painting!
So many new insights gained!!! Thanking you eternally God and Goddess, and thanks again for the wonderful physical nourishment Trudi…..

Helen Sharp, Murgon, Qld

This journey at times is not all that easy and to have you both as friends and examples of the authentic life is an inspiration for me and the life I choose to live.
You have provided so much support and from the bottom of my heart I wanted you to know I appreciate that. love to you both, 

Nick Williamson, Sydney

I find Les’s work timely and soothing in the midst of my sometimes intense and busy commercial/private life.
I’d also like to support your comments on the value of the courses. I find the value exceptional, and the work comes across as fresh and original and real – not a rehash of other stuff out there developed by someone else
Much love

Rabbi Richard

I still find it hard to believe that I have the opportunity to do the course. It has given me a sense of belonging and also answered sooo many questions that no-one else can answer also it makes me feel that I am not weird or strange and that all the people who I know are beautiful really ARE and I am not strange thinking that they are.

Judy Fisher, Gold Coast

The ripples of positive change are being noticed and felt all through my life right now. I feel fantastic, lighter and much more in-tune. I’m in love with love, and that brings tears to my eyes even now. wow! Its as if each breathe I take now is exhaled with an embedded prayer. What a beautiful gift. I am consciously co-existing and co-creating with spirit. Thank-you, for introducing me to myself. Thank-you for holding the space for this meeting to take place. Thank-you from my glowing heart and lightened mind,
Much love

Joshua, Sydney

Just wanted to sincerely thank you all for the amazing weekend we all shared. It is not without a lot of hard work from a lot of people that such an amazing event can evolve. Thank you from my heart, I love you all. Also wanted to share my new vision of adulthood. It is this ferris wheel, when I am at my low points I bring new people and new experiences into my life as I evolve I get a better view of the beauty of life and celebrate with those around me.

Bernadette Smith, Brisbane

I did not know what to expect at Heartland. What I found was Les is a first class inspirational speaker and is comparable to those you find in the media and at speaking engagements. In fact he is very hands on. Besides his lectures he is with you all the time, even picking me up at the train station.

At Heartland, I came to find that Les, Trudi and the staff, really care about you and are not going through the motions. I am hard pressed to remember more gracious hosts.

Besides all that, their methods of perspective change actually work. I entered a half glass half empty guy and left a glass half full. My thanks over flow.

Love, Laughs and Hugs

Scott S, Miami, FLORIDA, USA.

All the best for the year and beyond, the work you both do is special and much appreciated. For some reason tears are filling my eyes as I read your e-mails, I love being in contact and will come to your retreats one day soon hopefully.
Much love and blessings to you both
Love, light and faith.

Ngaire

I want to thank you both for your inspiration which has helped me at different times to love myself and so love others. Lots and Lots of Love,

Derek Ellison, Sydney

I am sooooo grateful to my guidance who gave me green lights 40ft high (just so I couldn’t miss the YES they were saying) to be part of this course. There are very special people on it with immense courage. Its funny, I don’t see it as courage for myself…it’s just something I KNOW I have to do and there will be many more with you both to come.

Vivvy Adcock, Cooroibah, Qld

I have loved Les and his work ever since I first met him at one of his workshops in Kingaroy many years ago and I wish you both the very best of lives and the very best of everything. All power to you both in the work you are doing for humanity.
Love and blessings,

Gillian Hopkinson, England

“How can I (or anyone) adequately describe ‘touching the sublime’ within the limitation of words? (sublime experience is indescribable)……I would encourage (with all my heart), anyone engaged in the process of conscious living to attend Les’s workshops. The very real benefits and gifts from this unique and direct experience will continue to remind you daily, as they have me, that ‘being love’ is indeed anchored in everyday reality from the mundane to the sublime – if we choose to live it consciously and wastefully”.

Inez Geddes, Newcastle

Dear Les,
My heart felt thanks to you, Trudi and your team for your excellent workshop.
I feel most blessed and cared for, your approach is a wonderful blend of healing, teaching and fun. May your week flow well,
Love and hugs,

Heather Deighan, WA

I am not to sure how to start this letter except to say my life is getting better and better each day. All my anger and resentment has dissipated. In all the years that I have been delving into my spirituality I have never got some of the concepts and up till now was unable to implement the basic principles of seeing the god in everyone etc. I only got it on a intellectual level, but now I see it from a more spiritual level and one from the heart. Since returning home there has been a feeling of much lightness from within, as some of my burdens I carried all those years were lifted over the weekend. I feel so much more alive and content!!! The girls are adjusting to the new mummy. I am so proud of the way I am reacting and handling situations as they arise. Thanks for being one of the teachers on this path I be.

Love to you Alison, Sunshine Coast
