Buckle up, you are going on a mindfulness journey with Leandre as the most articulate, clear and experienced driver. I went to the sound bath as an empty cup ready to be filled with sound content and Leandre delivered much more than the sound journey. This is a 5/5 because it exceeded my expectations.No words can explain the experience of the sound and vibration on this journey where different textures of smell are churned out by the rhythmic baritone of a vessel sweetly tuned by Leandre as she ushers you into the state of anapanasati. If Mindfulness, the awareness of now, being present, is what you’re looking for, Leandre will effortlessly deliver that to you.Her guided meditation and the card reading are such perfect combinations to the already beautiful sound bath and they all work harmoniously to bring you to the present. This was such a good gift for me and I will be back here soon.

Ik heb een sessie van Leandra gehad binnen een ander programma dat ik gevolgd heb. Na die sessie voelde ik me zo ontspannen, zo opgelucht bijna, en ik geloofde dat ik echt van mezelf hield. Wat voor mij een hele grote stap was. Het was dus een no-brainer om een persoonlijke recording aan te vragen zodat ik deze kon blijven gebruiken. Deze heb ik toen ook echt elke dag voor 30 dagen lang gebruikt voor het slapen gaan en ik merkte zoveel verschil in mijn mentale en emotionele staat. Ik stond veel sterker in mijn schoenen dan eerst. Door dit voor het slapen te doen sliep ik ook veel sneller en beter, fijne bijkomstigheid :) Ik geloof dat het programma nu al een aantal jaar geleden is en ik luister nog steeds eens in de zoveel tijd naar deze recording!

Thank you, Leandra!Leandra has helped change my life.I came across her Instagram page and I was totally drawn to her posts.I was feeling unloved, had low self-esteem and had no self-confidence.It was the end of the year, and I knew that I wanted to start with the therapy immediately.I didn’t want to start the new year with the same energy …I’ve never felt such a sense of urgency. I was so happy to hear that she was taking on new clients at that time of the year.Within a week, Leandra was at my home doing my first session.Shortly after my first session, we had a feedback session where we discussed and made sense of everything that came up in my first session, and I received my personalised recording, which I now listen to every day.To say that working with Leandra has changed my life is an understatement.It’s been the most beautiful experience seeing myself as beautiful, worthy and more than enough. To see myself change for the better every day and enjoy this extraordinary journey called life.To now know, that I have the power to create the life I want brings me so much joy.Leandra, I will be forever grateful that our paths have crossed.

But now I just relax and tell myself to take it day by day. It's almost like it's impossible for me to get to that maximum stressed level anymore. But what is more is that hypnotherapy really helped me with my self-confidence and believing in myself. I have a really big birthmark on my back, and I used to be so scared to leave the house wearing a certain type of clothing that could show my back. But NOW I feel comfortable leaving the house looking that way, with any clothing I want.I also learnt through the process that you don't have to stay in a relationship that you're comfortable in even though you're not happy and that comfortable isn't actually always a great thing for me.Moving on takes courage and bravery, which I have learnt through hypnotherapy.Thank you, Leandra, for this gift. I hope that this session will help me do really well in my exams at the end of the year.I am currently in my final year of high school. Usually, I'm quite stressed out and anxious about school, doing well, making a success and just life in general. But then the pandemic hit in my last year, and my stress levels just got insane with having to do school from home etc. Some days I felt like my stress levels were 10 outta 10. I could not be more stressed out. And I felt like I was going to fail at everything.So I did a hypnotherapy session with Leandra. And I was so surprised and happy with the results.Firstly, my stress levels have halved! Before, my teachers would constantly remind me that exams were coming up soon, making me so anxious that I became overwhelmed by numbness.And then I would just sit and watch tv and not even do my work!I am currently in my final year of high school.

Leandra is an amazing instructor! She constantly pays close attention to your posture and breath work guiding you through each movement. The yoga session is not only relaxing and peaceful but also incredibly effective on the body. Leandra creates a safe space for yoga, welcoming anyone of all levels of experience - would definitely recommend!

I came across Leandra at a point in my life where I felt completely stuck.I felt angry and had this nagging feeling that not only was I failing to move forward in my life, but I was also regressing. My self-esteem was extremely low, I felt like I needed a refresh, a pause of some sort to collect myself.I knew I needed help because even the things that felt familiar to me would bring me anxiety. I felt anxious and unsafe even with people that were closest and safest to me. I felt like I was rapidly losing my voice. I had negative voices ringing in my head, even when doing the most mundane of tasks. I felt I was not enough, or doing enough, but still stuck in a cycle of inaction and self-sabotage.When I approached Leandra, I explained to her all that I was going through and told her, I think I have some type of anxiety disorder that has gone undiagnosed.We started the 8-week VIP RTT process, which started by her providing a questionnaire that explored what I was feeling in that moment as well as other aspects in my family and social life. We then had an initial session, which I was a bit sceptical about at first, but was open to see how everything evolves.We arranged to have the first Rapid Transformation Therapy (RTT) session which she came to conduct in the safety of my home. This helped me reflect on the experiences I’ve had in my life; even from the time, I was much younger which culminated in me feeling like I was about to burst at the time I reached out to her.Leandra then took me through 8 weeks, of coaching, which was a combination of own internal work (e.g., listening to a custom recording that was made specifically for me to start the process of rewiring how my brain responds to discomfort), some additional tools (such as breath work, journaling tips etc.) that really helped me become a lot calmer and accepting of situations.I really appreciated that Leandra was able to tackle every one of our interactions in a manner that was suitable to what I needed at that point. I’ve been going through a lot of changes in the past few months, and I believe I’m handling them a lot better than I had before. I’m not completely healed, and I believe healing is not linear, and can be a lifelong journey, but I can feel that I am much more equipped to handle the journey in a kinder manner.Thank you for all the time and effort you have contributed in helping me so far.

First of all, thank you so much for the session. It was amazing and helped a lot to gain clarity and understand where my issue came from. For as long as I remember, I used to have problems with money—I never had enough, and it didn´t matter how hard I worked or what kind of work or service I provided, I just never had enough. I always had to deeply consider before doing something. I had to check my bank account to see if I could or couldn´t do what I wanted and sometimes, needed.I knew that I had a block related to money. I knew I had limiting beliefs passed on to me through my family since I came from a pretty poor background. Even though I knew this and had worked a lot on it, I still wasn’t able to change my situation, and my problems kept looping in a repetitive cycle.Doing the session with Leandra gave me so much clarity and understanding! I saw things I was not aware of and I could finally find the root cause of the beliefs I created around money and how that was holding me back.Today I woke up and felt like a new person. Now I know that those beliefs around money were created when I was around 5 years old. My father felt that we (his children) were a big burden, a “heavy backpack”, in his life. And because of a lack of money, given that he had to take care of us, he couldn´t be free (whatever that meant for him). From a really young age, I have linked feeling like a burden and feeling unloved too. This was what keeping me in a repetitive cycle with money, and never being able to access abundance. Now I know that those beliefs do not belong to me anymore and I can leave them behind.All this clarity and understanding would not be possible without your help and guidance. Because of your work, I could dig deeper into layers on my life, mind and feelings that I could never have reached on my own. So thank you again! It doesn´t matter what kind of trauma, limiting belief, issue, or problem people might have; this technique can work for absolutely everyone who´s willing to try it. I cannot recommend it enough.

Ik volg regelmatig een relaxatie groepssessie bij Leandra. Iedere keer is de ervaring anders, maar het effect hetzelfde. Ontspannen, uitgerust en extra focus de dagen erna. Een mooie kennismaking voor wie meer wil weten over de werking van hypnose of wil weten wie Leandra is. Betrokken, bevlogen, toegankelijk en professioneel.

About 2 months ago, I did a hypnotherapy session with Leandra for my Anxiety and negative thinking.It was absolutely mindblowing and, to be honest, pretty overwhelming. I felt freaking great after the session but very tense. My mind was processing so much but in a good way.The weeks after the session, I listened to the recording daily. After like 2-3 weeks, I began to notice the difference. I started to face things that used to increase my anxiety level and that I couldn't face before. Leandra really pushed me over the edge with doing this. My mood was more regular, and my self-worth increased.The session was very convenient; it gave me a lot of good insights and knowledge about myself. Leandra is so supportive and empathetic. I didn't feel like I was going to therapy or something; she was so chill and down to earth. I had a lot of laughs with her( funny when I think about it haha). This actually taught me a very good lesson.Don't take everything too serious and also have very much fun. It sounds cheesy, but I can relate to it so much.And I'm not even exaggerating to say that I have the feeling that she became more like a friend.Thank you so much Leandra, for your loving support and your good vibes.Keije
