Testimonials

Thank you so much to everyone involved in this retreat. It has truly been a life changing experience for me. To be able to take time out from my normal hectic life with young children was such a blessing. Not having to prepare one meal for nine days – or clean up a meal – was beautiful. Trudy’s calm and informative nature was wonderful. Rhianna’s knowledge was great and Andrea’s happy smile and (mostly!) fabulous drinks and foods were inspiring and uplifting. I will recommend this retreat to all of my friends and clients. Bali was mind-blowingly beautiful. Thank you Leisa for a wonderful, restful, relaxing and rejuvenating retreat.

A wonderful gift of knowledge to myself that I can incorporate into my life.

My experience at the Embracing Health Retreat was one of the most profound life changing experiences in my life. It was a spiritual as well as physical journey with amazing mentors who continually supported, guided and shared their remarkable knowledge and wisdom endlessly with each and every one of us.

I recommend this retreat to everyone. It can only change your life in the most positive way. Not only do you learn and understand about good food, nutrition and hoe it ‘can’ heal your body, but also how much clarity and inner happiness you can feel when y9ou take the time out to care and nurture your body and how much it can reward you if you do. You don’t know how much inner and outer strength you have until you have experienced an Embracing Health Retreat.

A thoughtfully put together retreat, presented by wonderful people. Highly recommended.

Thank you for your guidance through a life-changing journey, it has made a clear path for my way to a healthy life.

The retreat provided an environment that felt safe and relaxing to detox. Detoxing is something I don’t do. I have done this once before with Embracing Health, in Bali, three years ago. Both retreats were fantastic and a great environment to detox. Especially for me as I would have no idea about detoxing at home, but with what I have learnt and the written information I received, I would be confident to do a three to five day detox at home. The other activities included to assist with detoxing were also very beneficial. I will be leaving the retreat with some fantastic information on creating a better, healthier and spiritual life for myself and my family. Thank you to the fantastic Embracing Health Team xxxxxx

Leisa you’re a world of knowledge, your wisdom shines through your eyes and soul. You are so passionate about health, well-being and life itself. It really does come through in all the lectures and in the whole retreat. I didn’t know I could feel so good after doing 5 days of just juices and supplements. I lead a very healthy life and now I have new ideas I will incorporate in my everyday living. Embracing Life Retreat is much more than a detox retreat. It has transformed my LIFE!! Thank you Leisa and team. I’M IN BLISS!!

A transformational week of subtle changes both physically and emotionally. The supportive team were fantastic, it was a great program and I am excited to put my learnings into practice! Thank you!

This is my third retreat with Leisa and again was not disappointed. The program is so well organised and run professionally. Leisa is amazing with her organisational skills, but don’t know any word to describe her depth of knowledge. As she shares her knowledge, passion for what she does, she is thorough as well. Personally I am again leaving a retreat feeling revived and refreshed, physically and mentally. Empowered with old and new knowledge and am ready tp go home and power on with life. I will be back for Retreat #4!

Wow!! What a journey these past 8 night have been!! There are so many things that I have discovered and learned along the way!! Leisa is one incredible lady who I admire so much. Her passion and love for what she does really shines through with her lectures, talks and guidance. All the stuff was amazing and I really felt safe and looked after the whole time. The juices, smoothies, raw food, lectures, activities all flowed on from one another perfectly and you could tell that this was a well designed program. THIS IS MORE THAN JUICE PEOPLE – I CAN PROMISE YOU THAT!! I would say that this is a must for everyone to experience in their life. Let go of the guilt and put yourself and your health first!! The breakthroughs I have experienced include emotional healing, clearer eyes and skin, clarity as to where I see my future and a spot on naturopathic session where I now have my own healing plan designed for me. YAY Just so happy!

What a great experience to bring/teach people back to basics and Leisa does such a great job of doing it!

My motivation for attending one of Leisa’s detox retreats was driven by the desire to clear out toxins from the physical body, so I could reap the benefits of a healthy diet. What I experienced over the eight night retreat went way beyond my expectations of a physical detox!

The package Leisa has put together, including a thoroughly thought through juice fast – lovingly prepared by Andrea & Jules; Kahuna massage by Sam & Paulie, who never ceased to amaze me with their constant warmth and enveloping & nurturing energy; Transformative Breathing with Alakh and her incredible team introducing us to the power of Breathwork – wow! Sound Healing Meditation with Brian and Alora sharing their magical healing sounds, utilising an amazing range of unusual instruments from all over the world, followed by the mysterious sounds of whales and dolphins – so powerful! Colonics with Natalie, Michelle or Brooke who’s professionalism and knowledge was very comforting; Far Infrared Sauna – far better than a steam sauna on so many levels; Raw Food Preparation Demo’s by Andrea who exudes passion for raw food from every pore – who wouldn’t want to eat raw food after watching and tasting! Yoga – Caroline’s classes specifically tailored to enhance our detox journey were wonderful, with her chanting at the beginning and end of each class mesmerising!

Vision Boards – with Rhianna taking us through an exercise on focusing our thoughts to manifest our dreams; Naturopathic consults – an appointment with Rhianna to talk about any health issues, followed up with a full report sent out after the retreat. Also having two Naturopath’s on hand – Leisa & Rhianna – to pick their brains about absolutely everything throughout the entire retreat was invaluable; and the Comprehensive Lectures and notes – Leisa has covered off on everything, they are all encompassing and very easy to understand.

The entire week Kate and Rhianna worked tirelessly to ensure spaces were set up and cleaned up, tables were ready for meals and juices and foods served for all 26 retreatees, always with beautiful smiles and encouraging words and energy.

Spending eight days with 26 other retreatees we’d never met before was amazing. The stories and experiences shared openly and the warmth and encouragement shared and friendships formed will remain with me always.

The whole experience has been mind-blowing. It’s difficult to put into words what I’m taking away with me on all levels – physical, mental and emotional.

YOU HAVE TO EXPERIENCE IT FOR YOURSELF!

Thank you to Leisa and her amazing team for steering me in a direction I’m very excited to explore further.

Leisa and her team have crafted the most amazing, well-balanced, life changing program. I am so incredibly grateful for the opportunity and to have received the love and support I did all week. Leisa’s knowledge is limitless – her lectures were some of the best I’ve ever attended (and I have two Uni degrees). The holistic approach to detox and healing and rebuilding my health is just what I needed. I can’t sing praises enough for Embracing Health and will recommend it to everyone. I hope to return at least a few times over the coming years. Thank you for everything!

This retreat would have to be one of the best experiences I have ever had. This retreat will pinpoint a turning point in my life towards a journey of health, self-love and happiness. I have never been surrounded by such an amazing, caring group whom I wish to stay in contact with. Thank you for all your help behind the scenes to make this happen.

Leisa – Thank you for your support, you are amazing and such a caring soul.

Sam – I love you! Thank you for your wisdom, love and support and helping me through “my stuff”

Darby – You changed my life by releasing what I needed to move on and start my healing journey, so talented!!

Rhianna – thank you for being so approachable and for all your kind words and support.

Cat – please can I take you home !!! You have the ultimate gift, so talented, so passionate! Paulie – I’m sure you are just as amazing as Sam!

The Embracing Health, Detox, Healing and Raw Food Retreat attended in November 2013 was exceptional. The retreat was so very well organised and facilitated by Leisa Wheeler. I received an incredible amount of learning, personal discovery, health benefits, creative expansion, self-nurturing, fun and enjoyment. The raw juices and foods lovingly prepared by Cat Cannizaro were beyond amazing. Leisa Wheeler is a minefield of well researched and proven information. Her highly efficient and organised way of facilitating made for a highly informative and value-added week. The location of the retreat was ideal, alongside one of Australia’s best beaches in Byron Bay. Each participant also received a generous amount of extra bonuses and “goodies” which assisted us greatly in receiving maximum benefits throughout the week. With thanks and heartfelt appreciation to Leisa and her team of extra-ordinary experts who looked after us so very well.
