Testimonials

As far as everything about the Retreat went, I was happy with it. The location of the Retreat is very good, being close to the beach. I have done four Retreats – this one was well managed and well organised. I had no difficulty doing the detox and felt very little as we went through the program and after the detox.

Embracing Health has changed my life. I was a disaster waiting to happen. Many difficult and stressful events had made my life almost unbearable. In a three year period I had put my aged mother into care, cleared out her home and become her power of attorney and guardian. My adult daughter developed serious mental and physical health issues, my sister was diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer and died two years later in June 2013, she was 54 years old and 18 months older than me – we were very close. My work has been increasingly stressful and was contributing to my own deteriorating health. After my sister died I started looking for a retreat because I needed healing and I found Embracing Health. I couldn’t go on retreat then but started introducing raw food to my diet. I joined the Embracing Health Membership Club and read the newsletters and blogs, my world and health improved dramatically because of Embracing Health – I also lost 15kgs in twelve months. This retreat has been all I expected and more. I feel empowered to cope with my life stresses, heal my body and work through my grief.

This is my third Embracing Health Retreat. There is a reason I keep coming back, or should I say many reasons. Firstly, the staff are always exceptional. So caring and nurturing, and always supportive. The professional assistance you get while on the juice fast is amazing. Any symptoms you may be experiencing while detoxing is being supported by a naturopath to ensure that you are as comfortable as possible during this time. The raw food chefs are always very knowledgeable and creative. The lectures are fantastic and even though I have been before, I attend every lecture and I find out something new every time. My goal is to attend this retreat every year to revitalise my body, mind and soul. XXXX for the team!

This is my second retreat and I loved this as much as the first. Trudy and the team provided a wonderful nurturing environment for us to follow our own journey to health and enlightenment. This is such an amazing positive experience, I know I’ll be back. I highly recommend this to anyone, no matter where you are in your journey.

This is my second time at Embracing Health Retreat Byron Bay. Once again I am feeling fully equipped both mentally and physically to return home. This for me is a reset button! Congratulations to all the staff on presenting an awesome retreat. It is a credit to you to have so many return guests.

On behalf of all of us here at the ‘2014 Bali Retreat’, we thank you all for your care, support, guidance and shared knowledge throughout the last ten days. Nobody’s hard work went un-noticed (especially) behind the scenes, and all your efforts are greatly appreciated. It has been an amazing, transformational life experience and the knowledge and information we have acquired has prepared us for our spiritual and physical journey towards good health, peace and inner happiness.

Love and best wishes to you all xxxxx

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!
