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

Shona Battersby (Brisbane)

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

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.
 
Dr Judy Moss

"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...

Viv, (Therapist) Sunshine Coast

All my anger and resentment has dissipated. Up till now I was unable to implement the basic principles of seeing the god in everyone etc. Now I see it from the heart. I feel so much more alive and content!!!

Alison, Brisbane

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.

Kerry, Brisbane

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 for your wisdom as always. Again thank you for being you. Light and love

Wendy Battaglene

Thanks for your endless pearls of wisdom

Lis    www.vitalingus.com

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.
 
Ngaire, Queensland

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.

Regards  Anne & Keegan, Liam & Jordan

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.
 
With Love Janette Johns

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

Penny took part in a weekend workshop in May 2008.

I wish to personally thank you for being wonderful hosts during my recent stay at Heartland. I came away feeling refreshed, rejuvenated and so much more confident I was moving in the right direction in life, especially spiritually. I am so very grateful you allowed your home and family to become part of my journey. Driving home after my stay, I must admit, I felt a little sad ..... this was only because however, I didn't really want to leave.

I want to make special mention of the absolutely scrumptious food. Delicious! It was honestly some of the best food I have ever had!

Also a very big thank you to Les for your knowledge, wisdom and insight.

Heartland will always have a special place in my life.

Warmest Regards, Penny Guthrie

Sheridan joined us in May 2008 for a 5-Day Renewal program….

Thank you for a wonderful week, I feel renewed, revitalized, and rejuvenated. I am still floating around on a cloud…..

I enjoyed everything from the delicious organic vegetarian food provided by Trudi, the painting, the sculpture, the beautiful environment where I could look at the stars or sit in the field looking at the clouds. Trudi you are truly a marvel and I don’t know how you do it all, and with such love….

I also enjoyed the solitude, with no demands, and the beautiful bed and cozy rooms.

Les I cannot express how much I have learned from you, you are so wise and caring and giving of yourself. You also have that special ability to make everyone feel that they are part of the group.

So I feel like a new woman, your generosity was greatly appreciated, I felt at home the minute I arrived, which is fairly unusual for me. I really enjoyed meeting you all, especially Peter, who I think is a great asset to your team. Could you please keep me informed of when your next healing course will be starting?

Much Love, Sheridan

Jenny came to a 5-Day Program in April 2008 and told us “I AM happy for you to include my name and town. I mean every word I have written and there is so much more I feel but words sometimes cannot convey this…..

Wow, GOD really got it right when he/she united Les and Trudi together. You are such a unique blending of the feminine and masculine guiding and assisting many with their personal and spiritual healing. Les and Trudi both of you together and in the healing sanctuary of Heartlands are in my opinion a complete package of healing.

Les you are truly an amazing Soul walking the earth - your commitment, dedication and energy you give to others is beyond what I have experienced. There is no agenda other than to serve and to heal and this you do with such loving generosity, truth and compassion.

Trudi, your Presence is strongly felt at Heartland with the love, warmth and compassion that emanates so genuinely from you, the delicious foods and the logistical organisation of Heartland. You are a beautiful Earth Angel.

During my Retreat I experienced so much in such a short amount of time. I intuitively knew when I arrived at Heartland that if I was to let go and trust the energies of this land and the beautiful people who run this retreat that I would surely open myself to tremendous healing and spiritual connection – and this I did. My retreat experience was very profound and continues to be for me as I integrate the changes occurring within my Being! I have a renewed love, respect and honour for the Soul I AM.

With much love and gratitude to Les, Trudi & Family

Jenny Glover, Moonta Bay, SA

Just letting you know, if I haven't before
That the strength love and support you have given to me is very much appreciated The world is a better place because of you
So instead of celebrating a long dead man this year, I am celebrating all that you have given to me in so many ways.
 
Thank-you – Barbara, Gold Coast

“To simply be in his presence is, itself, an awesome spiritual experience! His unselfish and loving help is something to behold!”
 
Dr Frank Wadsworth, Sydney

“Thank you for your wonderful YOU Les. It was again for me, a deeply nurturing time to spend time with you, and the environment you create. You truly feel like a brother to me; you boundlessly affirm me and boundlessly inspire me. I thank you for the considerable number of miracles that have come my way through the work I have done with you. I am boundlessly grateful.”

“I came home with an incredible light within, once again... Les the light in your soul charged my tired batteries.. and reminded me of all the wonderful love and strength within. Thank you.”

Margarite P, Gold Coast

I would like to thank you, Les and Trudi for such a beautiful week. It was one of the most wonderful things I have done in my life. To share such an experience with such understanding and loving people has enriched my mind, body and my soul! You have helped me to set my feet on my path that I would have previously feared to take and I know that I would have thought of 101 reasons to delay. But I now find opportunities popping up in front of me and to be aware of them and seize them with passion is the most valuable experience I have gained.
Before I arrived for the week I felt a piece of a jigsaw was missing within me, but Les helped me realise that it is always with me, if only I stop and look within. I had always felt that I didn't quite belong in 'normal' religion and beliefs, as I would always question, thinking some ideas felt right but others would go against the grain. But Les taught and verified to me that it is all the same, we are all one and all connected to this infinite universe! And for this I am always grateful. My journey since I visited you has been magical.
Thank you Trudi again for your love and kindness and also for sharing your beautiful boy with me. Send him my love, he is such a gift to anyone he meets! Please send my love and thanks to Les, if I had not met him I would still be just plodding along, wishing for more but not realizing I can change this by my thoughts and my love. I hope within his busy timetable he finds space and time for himself.
All my love.
 
Lee Caulkett

I just want to say thanks to you both for the most wonderful week. It was such a special part of my journey and yet again I have been blessed to have had people like you touch my life.
You let me feel totally comfortable in being who I really am. I love fun and laughter and most of all new people, sharing and learning all the time. Thankyou. Your set up is amazing, it is something to be so proud of and I think the whole of Mackay will be coming soon, I've told everyone...
Cheers for now you beautiful people.
 
Lyn Ackerman, Mackay, Qld

The days at the Retreat and at your home were filled with so much love and magic that I can't remember when I've last been so happy and relaxed. Thanks you for this memorable time.
The unconditional love which you and your beautiful family, including your four-legged friends, gave so freely to me, was absolutely heart-warming and exhilarating. I am still walking on air.
Many heartfelt thanks for this beautiful experience which I will always carry in my heart.
 
Fridelle Stanwix, Hervey Bay, Qld

I love you Les and Trudi. You are doing a lot of good work. Some seeds can lay dormant for years before they decide to grow but even as fodder for other seeds, they are a part of the cycle. And you are part of the cycle of awakening, of love, of light, of healing.
Hugs to you sweet people. In finance, you might consider yourself not too wealthy but if thoughts of love were coins, you would be amongst the Oprah and the Bill Gates of this world.
hugs and have a beautiful week-end.
 
Betty, Qld

Dear Trudi,
I am now able to get these things (Les’s messages) and they are beautiful I look forward to the next.... I would like to personally thank both you and your husband as without this site I may never have recovered from the loss of my grandchild. It has been a rough road but with the inspiring words I have received through the years from your works, I have come to my place where I can be ok with it....... If it were not for people like yourselves that truly care for others more than yourself many lives would not be where they are today...... I am honored to have been led to your works and will cherish the names of you and your husband... Please let Les know this as I am alive today because of his ability to channel such lovely words from Source............
 
Joan Fleck

Dearest Les, Trudi,
A warm thank you to each of you for having been so welcoming, warm, understanding, encouraging and thank you, too, for the necessary but gentle confrontations.
I am so glad my heart led me to you and to the truths that lie therein (and within each of us).
Everything - Les' loving and beautiful teachings, Trudi's and Samyos' lovingly prepared meals and snacks, Nick's lovingly squeezed juices, my fellow travellers' loving company - was perfect. I may not be able to experience it or indeed show it as well as some yet, but the Love that is lived and experienced at your Retreat is true Love and one cannot help but be touched by it.
Les, yesterday morning at 4:30 am, I had a strong impulse to go to the beach at Coolum and cleanse myself in the ocean. The sun was high and bright in the sky and it cast a beautiful golden path all the way from the horizon to my body. With each large wave, I imagined it was a past hurt. Sometimes the waves were enormous and the one I imaged to be Boo's death dumped and knocked the breath ouf of me. I was reminded how if one turns one's back to the waves or runs away, any wave, even the smaller ones, can catch one off guard and bring one to one's knees. But if one faces the hugeness of the wave, if one doesn't run or hide and if one dives into it without fear, one usually escapes relatively unscathed.
You haven't seen the last of me yet!!
 
G F-L, Bundanoon, NSW

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
