Real & Raw Leija Heartspace Ramble :D
Want to know the real Leija? If so, read this post. If not, don’t read this post lol. I won’t take offence, I promise haha. This post comes from a very honest, real, raw & vulnerable place within. It’s actually from my little online diary that I write in from time to time. Allowing myself to write in a *stream of consciousness* kind of way is one of favourite therapies. I honestly don’t expect most people to read this whole thing- It’s long, and I know people are busy doing their own thing, buuut…my heart wanted me to put this out there for those who are interested…so here it is:
Photography/ videography is such a huge passion of mine!!!! I can’t wait until I get a Canon 5D Mark II and Glidecam http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBLccEDmn40, so I can FINALLY take everything up quite a few notches!!! Universe, you know you wanna bring this camera into my life!!! You KNOW what my TRUE intentions are with this!
I love to inspire people to follow their heart, to connect with the natural world, with their authentic selves, and with everything REAL & RAW!!! I just loooove NATURE, creating anything- raw food, raw art, etc., exploring/ travelling, meeting new people (people from ALL walks of life), photography, film and just art in general! I have this dream of basically travelling the world, (documenting my travels via youtube of course), taking photos/ video footage of beautiful scenes in nature, beautiful food & beautiful people. I would LOVE to photograph/ film and interview every day people about their lives & share their beautiful, moving, funny, synchronistic, inspirational stories with the world! How needed is THAT work on this planet right now with all the FEAR news being pumped out??? Anyway, my intention is to do this work with my Swedish soul sista Natalie, who I actually just met yesterday for the first time (via skype)!!! Just two days ago, when I was photographing Kalamalka Lake, I told the Universe, with so much joy & excitement in my heart that I would LOOOVE to manifest a soul sister who is as passionate about REAL & RAW living as I am, who has a deep passion for travelling and photography, and who truly, truly…truuuuly gets me, on such a deep, deep level. People tell me all the time that I’m just like them, and that they toooootally get me! Now, while this is true to some degree, or even to a large degree, I have found that most people don’t truly get me….Or they get most of me, but there’s usually at least one disconnect there, which is completely cool! It doesn’t mean that we can’t have the most incredible, loving, healing, beautiful, ridiculously fun relationship…because we totally can!
Anyway, I connected with this Swedish girl just yesterday, Natalie, who truly *tears of joy* knows my heart and knows my soul…on a level that I can’t even describe with words. There’s just no doubt, no doubt!!! that we are from the same soul group and are here on this planet to do incredible work together! She knows why I do what I do, and knows that I am ANYTHING but ego- I’m all heart. <3 And that the only reason I shine my light so brightly is because I just have to- Not for myself, but for others, for this planet. This is why I came down to this planet! I came here to do a job, then I'm outta this dense dimension and back to where I came from, millions of dimensions away. Oh that's right, I said *millions* of dimensions away!!!
I was always an introvert growing up. WHHAAAA???? Leija an introvert? No fucking way! She’s like, the most outgoing person around??? Well, actually…no. Even though I would definitely have my outgoing/energetic/enthusiastic moments, a lot of the time, I was and still am that quiet, introverted, “let me just be and observe life” kinda person, who would rather frolic throughout a forest barefoot all day, picking wild edibles….or simply take photos of nature all day….then do ANYTHING in a city, or even anything with people! While I truly care about and love people, what I love just as much is the feeling I have when I’m all by myself, in nature…because I feel closest to the *home within* in nature. I love the way nature moves me….I love capturing the glow around wildflowers at sunset with my camera….I love dancing to beautiful music while I’m hiking and witnessing the trees dance right along with me….I love laughing my ass off at how freaking perfect everything really is…I love basking in MY OWN BLISS….I love being *silent* and simply observing the natural flow of life around me. The only reason a lot of people think I’m this very outgoing, energetic, talkative woman is because that’s what they see on youtube. But a 10 to 20 minute youtube video is just a 10 to 20 minute youtube video. Am I supposed to just stare into the camera and communicate my messages telepathically? Of course I’m going to talk a lot during the video…lol. I only make youtube videos when I feel that inspiration from within….and I change from an introvert to an extrovert in that moment! These days I’m definitely feeling the pull from within to be more expressive because I’m simple FEELING SO MUCH JOY that wants to be expressed! I’m also feeling the pull to really express all sides of Leija…So I’m going with it. But at the same time, I love simply connecting to that sacred space within and simply *being* in that beautiful place.
If I didn’t care this much about people, animals, and the planet as a whole, and if I didn’t have such important messages to spread (most of them that have come to me through being in nature, and connecting to that love/ source energy within), I would not be in the public eye… yeeeah…HELLZ NO!!! No freaking way! When people tell me they think I should model or do acting, I kind of laugh to myself because that is the LAST thing I’d want to do on this planet! I mean, sure, I’d love to be a part any kind of film or photoshoot that is promoting raw food, holistic healing, sustainability, the importance of connecting to your heartspace, etc….but acting/ modelling for the sake of looking pretty, or just making money? HELLZ NO! I don’t want THAT kind of attention EVER! There’s such a big part of me that actually doesn’t like attention believe it or not….but I’ve come to accept that when you shine your light, you receive attention. I’m at this level of acceptance of my true mission here on earth, which is why I’ve accepted the attention. I’ve gone BEYOND my ego, to a place where I simply focus on the whole. “How may I serve?” is my number #1 intention. I choose to focus on the bigger picture…like all the thousands of people I have helped in some way. I focus on the people who write to me, saying that I have COMPLETELY changed their lives! When someone writes to me and says….hold on, let me get an actual email from someone.
Ok, here is it: “leija i must write to you and thankyou from the bottom of my heart. i was seriously about to commit suicide but before pulling the trigger i asked god to give me just one reason to live. later that day was searching around onto youtube and came across your videos. you were so happy to be alive and connecting with the simple things in life like nature. you were giggling and just being yourself. you reminded me that its totally ok to just be me and that i dont have to try so hard to be someone im not. i realized how i was putting all these stupid expectations on myself and you reminded me that i was already perfect just the way i was. you sparked something within me and that night i started to cry and cry and cry. i cried so much that I could barely breath and i remembered what life was about and that i was worth living on this planet. you saved my life leija and i just cant express how grateful i am for you and your courage to put yourself out to the world. thankyou thankyou thankyou so much. i love you so much! thankyou!”
I’m at a point where I know it’s more important for me to shine my light and help/motivate/inspire others…then not to do so, even though there’s a part of me that just doesn’t want to deal with all the shit (from ego-projecting, unawake people) that comes along with it. I don’t think a lot of people understand how much shit I deal with. Most people think that my life is just so easy…lol. Well, these days it is a lot easier because I’m truly listening/ trusting in my heart, but at the same time, the more light you shine, the more attention you receive- and while a lot of that attention is super positive, a lot of it does a number on me because I’m such a sensitive soul. While we are all sensitive and empathic, some people are WAY more sensitive/ empathic than others! This planet’s vibrations are so dense that they really do a number on a lot of us. I do my best to protect myself, ground myself, heal myself, and not feed the drama, but I’m such an empath, and I *feel* so much…and see, Natalie totally gets this. Natalie totally feels this. She understands that I do what I do because my soul was here to bring about change, plain and simple….and through me simple sitting on top of a mountain, in a little cabin, gardening, painting/ taking photos all day, secluding myself from the world…well, that’s not fulfilling my mission…even though there is a part of me that wants to do just that.
I’m such a sensitive soul, such an empath, and if people truly understood this, and felt this, they wouldn’t throw their bullshit my way and accuse me of “just wanting attention” or “being an egomaniac” or “just being about the money” and complete utter nonsense like that! It’s not that I take the insults personally, because I know that people are just projecting from their ego, but because I am so sensitive, I can *feel* it on a deeper level. lol this is one of the reasons I go out in nature so much- to ground those judgements, criticisms and even hate daggers outta me! I’m not going to share some of the really toxic emails, but here’s a comment I received on a beautiful photo & inspirational post I made: “Whenever I see something from you or read something you write, all I can see is me, me me lol I’ve never seen anyone so self absorbed. I think that’s something you should look at.” That statement is just ridiculous and of course, an ego-projection….but just to clarify, I don’t make posts about myself because I wanna be like, “Oh look at me, and how fabulous I am in a “me, me, me EGO way”…It’s the complete opposite.
I inspire, motivate and heal through expressing and showing the world how freaking awesome life can be and how freaking gorgeous your body can become when you treat it like a temple! So of course I’m going to talk about me! Why the heck would I talk about you and what you should do and how you should live your life or what’s right for you? Pffftttt that’s no way to teach! That’s the old paradigm…the old, “Listen to me because I’m a guru, or I’m this professor. I’m superior to you. Don’t think for yourself. Just follow me. Or just memorize a bunch of facts and regurgitate it.” That way of teaching is SO OUTDATED in my humble opinion!!! I teach through being an example! Through sharing with people what works for me! Through encouraging people to try some of my helpful tips, but at the same time, encourage people to ALWAYS do what’s best for them! To listen to THEIR heart! To follow THEIR truth! I post beautiful, inspiring photos so I can inspire people to think, “Hmmm, she’s lookin’ mighty radiant. Maybe I’ll start eating some more raw food and start connecting with nature more often.” Or, “Hmmm….so following her heart is working for her…hmmm…maybe I should do the same.” You know what I’m sayin’? I know in my heart of hearts what my true intentions are and these strong waves of compassion, empathy and love that I feel within are enough fuel to keep me going strong! I highly encourage others to teach in this way! And to remember that everyone is just as much a teacher as they are a student!
Anyway, just wow, I mean, Natalie & I have pretty much EVERYTHING in common, from our roots (we’re both Scandinavian), to our lifestyle, passions, philosophies, sense of humour, relationships…to just about everything, and for the longest time, Natalie was actually asking the Universe to guide a soul sister into her life, one who would TRULY GET HER, and one who would LOVE to travel the world with her, take beautiful photos/ videos of everything real & raw- real & raw nature, people, food, EVERYTHING! And of course, someone who wants to continue to do lightwork in every way possible!
Natalie is actually an amazing photographer who just had a photography exhibition…and that is EXACTLY what I want to do, and what we both want to do together now and waaaaaaaaaaaa I could go on. See, this is what happens when you follow your heart and stay true to yourself! Wow, I just feel so so sooooo blessed and grateful for the Universe uniting us- and guess what?? SHE’S COMING TO MY RETREAT in just a few days!!! *tears of joy* Seriously, we both cried SOOO MUCH during and after that skype call because it sincerely felt like we were long-lost sisters finally re-united!!!!
Getting back to my dream….With so much fear-based news constantly being pumped out into the world, I feel that the world needs more POSITIVE, INSPIRATIONAL, BEAUTIFUL messages/ videos/ news NOW, more than ever before!!! I get sooo excited at the thought of travelling the world, taking (high quality) photos/ video footage of nature, food, people, and all that is beautiful, inspirational, real & raw!!! I would LOVE to be able to interview people with inspirational stories, from all walks of life, from ALL over the world! A lot of these people would be doing the most amazing humanitarian work that the mainstream just doesn’t talk/ hear about. A lot of these people would be people I’d meet spontaneously and synchronistically during my travels- They would appear to be ordinary people, yet have the most incredible things to say! It would be the “SYNCTOWN REAL & RAW TOUR” or somethin’ lol. ; )
Some of the most beautiful, inspiring souls I’ve ever met were homeless people, janitors, or just your every day person that I’d strike up a conversation with when out & about. These people are usually not into all the stuff I’m into, but simply have so much heart/soul/wisdom, and such incredible stories that would melt anyone’s heart and make anyone realize how amazing life really is- I want to interview THOSE guys & gals!!! I want us all to see/feel how truly beautiful, amazing and similar we all are! Minus those superficial and cultural differences, we all just want to have the freedom to be who we are, to love and be loved, and to really enjoy life! I want to show as many people as I can how much JOY, LOVE, INSPIRATION & MAGIC there is in the world RIGHT NOW!!!! ONE LOVE BABY!!! That’s a dream of mine that will manifest once I get a new mac laptop, a Canon 5D Mark II & Glidecam (and whatever other equipment I need), possibly do some fundraising, and create the space in my life for it to happen.
Thank-you Mother Earth, Higher Self, Angels, Spirit Guides & Universe…seriously THANK-YOU SO MUCH for the blessing that is Natalie, and for continually giving me the strength, love and protection I need to continue following my heart and doing my lightwork!!!! DAAHHH I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

Thankyou
Leija, you are an INSPIRATION! As a young woman who sometimes feels lost in this density, I watch your videos and any negativity I feel just melts away, you rejuvenate my energy soul sista
!!!
I sometimes feel disconnected from other people because I let my inner child shine through no matter what, and I guess being nearly 28 I’m supposed to be ‘settling down’ or ‘taking life seriously’ but you confirm that embracing my true nature is the only way I can be, and if other people don’t like it well that’s their problem not mine!
“Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.”
THANK-YOU FOR BEING YOU, YOU TOTALLY RAWK DAWG, HEHE!!!! Sending love and laughter your way!!!!!
Love Lucy <3
Excellent! From being an introvert who learned how to put energy out there but still be, at heart, an introvert, to new paradigm teaching, to just living the journey within…I relate to it all…:) Thanks Leija!
Keep Shining Sister
Cheers
From Down Under Tasmania, Australia
You would be surprised to know HOW many how absolutely many is your soul-sister. I could have written all that! I mean…ALL of it! EVERYTHING in it was true for my heart. Everything was resonating and feeling like ME. I need to find my diary and make comparisons but it’s not really needed because those are the thoughts/feelings which have been with me since I was born to this life…Or before that. It’s the core knowing how the things are. And who am I. You have made me to REMEMBER it all again. I’m absolutely always getting your messages…Fully! Those people who are reading you wrong…I really understand how they are just not ready to let it all sink in. Ego ego and fear fear. But I feel very sorry that you need to feel their hurts and shit. You are doing AMAZING work and it’s all for the highest good! Just feel how this planet is full of soul-sisters and brothers…In the END we are all similar/same souls…It just depends where we are on our path that makes us feel different or that makes us (in that moment) to feel like pair of slippers
I could keep going forever but I want to keep this short so you have time to read it. And NO ANSWER needed! Absolutely NO! Of course if your heart demands to send an answer… Go for it girl!
But I can see how much post you must be getting and it’s ENORMOUS work to answer for all of them. So please concentrate for clients! I’m very happy and totally satisfied just reading your post in the facebook and watching videos
I just wanted to offer some support…To just make you feel that WE ALL ARE HERE to support you and give you our most sincere gratitude!!! Ah it feels like it’s not only me who is sending this message to you. It’s all UNIVERSE! Angels Stars Guides Masters Spirits Mother-Gaya and absolutely everything is thanking you! Every atom and every little furry animal every feather every dream every bebble every ray of sunshine and all drops of water… It’s all thanking you to be true to yourself and make this hard work for it. Thank you for LOVING SO MUCH! After this my own thanks will seems small. Anyway…Thank you sweetie! We will make it to be heaven!
Hugs hugs hugs!!!
Leija,
I just want to thank you. You are an inspiration to me and just as you described your true intent for your videos, I totally and completely get you. What a wonderful way to lead by example. Seeing your vids and reading your posts inspire me to examine myself and make changes that will cause me to be a better person and truly understand who I am and where I\’m going. Please continue to do all that you do as it\’s not taken for granted at least not from my perception or perspective. I was awakened about eight months ago pr so with the help of Larissa Wilson. I try not to name drop, but I had to because without her spark, I wouldn\’t have ignited into the flame that I\’m developing into.
I see you as fuel to my flame that keeps my fire going and desiring to grow stronger. I too was an introvert and kept to myself a lot growing up and have came a long ways from where I used to be. With that came a lot of baggage and things that I\’m slowly growing away from. Things that were destroying me and the world around me if you can feel what I\’m saying. You are a blessing to me and I\’m sure a host of other people. I don\’t desire to be you, but I do desire to learn more about how you have ascended to a higher state of consciousness. I desire to ascend to that higher place and live less in my egotistical self which does no good to me or the world around me. I desire to be free as Jesus was free, but was totally mis-understood. You remind me of him and my understanding of him now is so much more different than what the church taught me growing up.
You will have all that you desire and your camera and the things you need to make your desires come true will manifest sooner than you think. You already see the manifestation of your thoughts, I mean, just look at how you thought about that dog and how it just appeared on the trail by just thinking it. You are totally on another level and you provide hope to people like me and you give me something to shoot for.
Sincerely with all the love in the Universe.
Amador
Leija, I am so happy you have found your soul sister
I have been asking the universe for mine as well. I have a wonderful hubby and mother who love me and support me in every way, but I’m waiting for my long lost sister who will truly understand my heart and intentions inside out. It’s incredible that you attracted someone into your life who wants to co-create your dream of travelling! You have given me hope that my soul-sista is out there somewhere too! I can’t wait to see your adventures
Also Leija, I know that your heart can be drained from the many emails that you receive from people who are talking out of ego. But I want you to know that as many of those emails you get, there are thousands of more people praying for you and sending you good energies. We just don’t always email you. You would be surprised how often you are in my prayers … I ask God to make your path easy, so that you can continue to heal this earth.
Much love,
Anny
Thank you for sharing, Leija. Not that I needed any more explanation for why you are YOU, but yes, it is necessary for you to sometimes repeat it, not for your own gratification, or as some form of self-affirmation, but because you simply have to communicate your MISSION. I totally resonate with what you\’re saying and it\’s nice to see it coming from someone else when I consider my own life\’s purpose…to make a difference in people\’s lives, to empower, to love unconditionally, to achieve what is it you WANT…EFFORTLESSLY…
Your words vibrate such strong energies that touch me, and although we don\’t know each other from Adams lol, I just wanna say \"I love you\".
Dear Leija,
Love every word you said. Know the introvert/extrovert thingy from my own experience. Could it be that this is somewhat pronounced in Aquarian born people? It is wonderful contrast to help us see who we really are.
I follow you on youtube and fb for quite a while already and I celebrate every new expansion you take. You are approx half my age but have reached awareness levels of which I got a clue only after decades of sifting through contrasts. It is quite relieving to see that young people today seem to come to deeper conclusions about life much earlier than we did. And it is amazing to witness the vibrational changes in the world which allow for those kinds of shiny manifestations as you represent. Keep following your heart. You are an expert in this already. But synctown is really only the beginning.
Thanks for shining your light so brightly.
Kai-Ra-San
Beautifully said.
Keep following your bliss.

Love you Leija!! <3
One of these days I really do want to send you an email just thanking you and I just want to let you know how much you've helped me. You have really changed the course of my life.

What an amazing read, increadbile to hear about your soul sister from Sweden. I can feel your excitement, both of you will have an amazing time.
I am even more inspired now to make my desire out to the universe stronger to meet the girl of my dreams, I have this feeling that I KNOW she is out there. I know my heart will make this a reality, someday…
When you do start you trip across the world exploring, a good title can be- Adventures with Leija
Wishing you the best Leija,
*sighhhh* i REALLY needed to hear this. Thank you Leija!
Dear Leija, thank you so much for this post! I just happened to come across some of your youtube’s yesterday and was really enjoying your JOY, purity, beauty, and love of beauty. What a surprise to read that you’ve gotten negative feedback!
I came across a quote recently, it goes something like: “You can be the juiciest peach in the basket, and there will still be someone that doesn’t like peaches”…..with a pic of gorgeous peaches above the quote. You remind me of that perfect peach, and if YOU’RE getting negative feedback, that really makes me feel like, “darn it–I’m just going to relax and be me because it is so true–you CANNOT please everyone!!”
(Sending forgiving love to those peach-judgers….
Also wanted to share with you that, based on what you’ve shared about yourself and your spiritual interests/beliefs, I think you might enjoy the Saint Germain series of books (the “I AM” Teachings that Wayne Dyer quoted from so heavily in his most recent book, “Wishes Fulfilled”). The first two books tell the amazing story of the author’s mystical experiences with Saint Germain, and the third book is the crux of Saint Germain’s teachings.
You’re already a pretty shiny gal, but I’m holding the picture for you that you shine in ALL areas of your life…..abundance included!
Angel Love & Blessings to you,
~Mary
P.S. The website for the “I AM” books is http://www.saintgermainpress.com
Wow Leija! You are so beautiful! In every way.. Real and raw, from the heart. I feel, and so many people feel this, know this. Its so inspiring to see people being open with who they truly are.. It moves others like waves, people see and realize that this is the way to go, to live
.. And its not fair that other people take out their projections on you, for being you… But I guess they don’t understand what they are doing themselves.. not yet at least… But in someway they all want the same to, love and light, to be able to see the beauty of life, to laugh! 
Just keep on being you! You rock!!!
Love and light from your sister Mirra! <3
Leija,
I just wanted to let you know that you’re such a HUGE inspiration to me. We’re several years apart (I’m older), but it doesn’t matter because you are who my authentic self is in so many ways. It’s been really wonderful to finally come across someone who is an example of the healthy, real, blissful me I’ve been trying to be for years, but haven’t been able to be due to illness & life circumstances. Luckily things have been improving a great deal. Yet there are still challenges as there often will be when one is on a high spiritual path, as you know yourself. I greatly appreciate everything you’ve shared to the public & get that it’s not easy. I know it’s difficult for me, but it’s also the path I’m on. All I’ve ever wanted to do was be my true self and inspire others & I’m doing it now on a small scale. Eventually it will be on a much large scale. It’s what I HAVE to do. Not because I want to earn karmic points as many seem to focus on. It’s what’s in my heart & who I am. I’m sure there’s many that have been silent as I’ve been until now, but whose lives you’ve positively affected as well. So please continue sharing & being the amazing you that you are because it’s helping so many of us.
Hi Leija,
So glad you didn’t go into modeling or acting! Your the voice for millions of people who feel the way you do and I’m sure it’s pivotal for the shift. Blessings ~ Diane
Dear Leija,
I want to first thank you for all of your videos and writings. I actually just found you on youtube and throughout my days, in between Sessions, while I’m sitting in my sacred space I watched the journey you posted and cared to share with the world. I watched you go from being single and spreading your bright spirit to meeting another beautiful soul and getting married…then I watched your journey together up until yesterday when I finally had a chance to get back online and view your RIP marriage video. I now just found your website. So..though you have been a sweet addition to many thousands of lives over the years and they got to see you grow and evolve real time.. I got the condensed speed version. Either version is as beautiful as the next, as are all Journeys of all people on this beautiful plane.
I am blessed to be a part of the awakening process of all of those who by no coincidence find me and my studio. Just as it is no coincidence that I found you.
A Universal Awakening, as you well know, is happening as we type. The Frequency is changing and we are a part of that change. I feel it happen not only through my own person and soul but I am blessed to watch it awaken in others. Some or probably most come to me very confused and do not fully understand what is happening to them. As you well know, this process is over-whelming to those not fully prepared. It is my mission to prepare and to connect. Connection of the body, mind and spirit.. to infuse them fully are fluffy words to say.. but in reality is very hard to do. It takes so much conscious effort and practice.
What draws me to you right this very second on this very day at this exact moment in time, I can not say. I only know that as I am rushing to get out of my house and meet my friends for a drive to Montauk Point on Long Island, I stop to write this to you. It is something I “must” do. I know you understand that.
I want you to know and fully understand this…. You are NOT alone. There is not just “one” person who is your soul connection. There are thousands. It is the differences that connect us just as much as the similarities … the similarities give us a feeling of “im not alone” but the differences and what brings different people together is the Universe bringing you a gift. A gift of learning. No matter who you are or what you do or what you say every person alive does have their own voice in their head that judges. Sometimes “we” can get caught up in that and that is EXACTLY when the Universe brings some ONE or some THING into your world. It is your responsibility to embrace it … Let go of Ego and learn.
You can have your dream of inspiring and teaching others without a new laptop or a camera. This I KNOW as an absolute truth. You can do that without broadcasting it, without Youtube or a website. You do this every day you walk into the store and wait an extra 20 seconds holding the door open for a person across the parking lot who you know is going to use this door a few seconds longer than the normal amount of time you might wait….Please try this.. wait 30 seconds for someone just pulling in.. smile..and wait for them… in the grand scheme of things.. what is 30 seconds? In this instance it is a 30 second time frame which will profoundly change someones entire day. Including yours. Trust me on that.
I want to tell you what the Universe is telling me.. For what ever it’s worth…There is a reason I found your posts and there is a reason I took the time out of my life to enter into yours… It is this… and I say this with all the respect and absolute pure love in my being….
Get back to your roots…slow down…and remember.
That is what I need to say to you… What it means is only known to you.. I do not know why or what it means.. I only say what comes to me. Thank you for your videos and your thoughts…You are a bright light…..
We all need Guidance…. most of all.. the Teachers.
Hi Leija,
I have watched your videos a bit these past months as I make my way through a very difficult separation from a 15-year relationship, and anyway… they have helped me stay positive. Thank you!! My question is this: have you thought of making a video for kids? My heart goes out to my 2 daughters, age 8 and 10, as they have a lot of crap to put up with at this stage of their life, mainly because of the conflict between their two parents, but just as growing girls in a crazy world too… There are so many things I want to help them understand about loving themselves, enjoying themselves, others, their lives etc. But naturally, they tend to roll their eyes a bit at my heart to hearts, and you have a special way of expressing these things that I think they would get a kick out of, and probably lots of other kids too. I wouldn’t show them your regular videos, which are great and fresh and real, but definitely for adults. This is just a thought. Kids need these tools too. I hope you like the idea! Warmest wishes, Maggie
In the words of Debbie Ford: “In the words of Debbie Ford: “You hold a very special piece of the puzzle. And that the world can never be as great as it can be, without your piece. So no matter what anybody ever says to you, or what you ever feel inside, know that you hold a piece that’s unlike anybody else in the world, and that we need it.”
I was lead to your site through synchronicity at a time when I needed answers, that I got through your videos and messages. Those that perceive you as egotistical are still young spiritually. Continue to let your Light shine!
I feel words would only diminish. Not only do I say thank you but my soul greets yours in the perfectly imperfection we both are as exact mirrors of reflection to one another. I love you and thank you ❤❤❤
Leija,I want to thank you for taking your time to make insperiational videos and caring for others that is really wonderful of you to do:) Today is my birthday.YeYey!!! Happy birthday to me!!!!lol and I receive lots of wonderful information from your videos you make. What a WONDERFUL GIFT from you.THANK YOU very much!!!!!! Send you lots of love from the happiness of my heart!!! Always ILSE<3
Love you! Love me! Thank you! Seriously. I have attempted suicide 3 times, the first time as a child, out of confusion and overwhelm. It’s sensitive, beautiful people like yourSelf who have helped me to forgive, bless, and love mySelf, and practice kindness with all the mirrors between Heaven and Earth. Moment to moment practice. Thank you sister (s and brothers). Peace
Leija, I think your experience in life is what everyone should be experiencing. For me, it is the baseline of living : the universe teaches you how to overcome challenges if you let it; at times of challenge, turn to nature to bring peace and inspiration to your mind; that is the only way you can truly work out solutions.
I was raised on the countryside and loved spending time in the greenery as a child. For me it was the only place where I could truly be myself; I could reflect on everything and come up with the best way to go forward. Other times, just being amazed at all life around me gave me a totally new perspective on things, and I learned that some (important) issues do not really matter that much after all. It taught me not to focus too much on the classical things (eg. property).
Over time, and mainly because of inexperience, I got sucked into those classical things, and lost focus. I never ceased to regard nature as my inspiration, but I just had \"more important\" issues to take care of. Slowly, I began treading the treadmill of our society (job, house, …), while pushing my real interests aside.
I did notice that I was not very happy along the way; something basic was missing in my life, but I just regarded it as inexperience.
A year ago, I came out of a deep depression, and it was an eye-opener for me. I started researching for reasons, and found a whole new dimension of knowledge I was not aware of. One of the main reasons for the depression was exactly my lack of contact with my own values, with nature, relaxation and inspiration on top. Knowing this, I started putting other things aside, and recovered very quickly. The docters were amazed, and said I basically cured myself.
Having overcome this challenge, I wanted to explore this new dimension further; I found amazing things on the internet, and I started using them every day.
At this moment, knowing what I know today, I am hesitating to change jobs, to follow my true self. I feel the need to go back to nature, but also the urge to educate others of my findings. I was pleasantly surprised to find someone with the same ideas and needs, so maybe this IS the way it is meant to be for everyone.
Like you said, there is so much negativity in our societies, and it is time we start to live life like it is meant to be lived. For the first time in history, we have reached the material sufficiency not to worry about survival too much, and it is high time we finally start educating our conscience about the things that really matter in life : happiness, inspiration, and love.
This message has become a lot longer than I intended, but I just feel excited to have found others with similar experiences. If you need help spreading the word, let me know.
Hey Leija,
What a awesome being you are( not egoic) I stumbled across you on the net and watched a few of your belief\’s, I really like the way you connect and as a grateful student of Eckart Tolle and Mind Valley I am honoured to see your grace and honesty.
I am on the biggest sand island on the planet, Fraser Island and Rainbow beach in Australia, One of the most spiritual places in the world I have ever been , Thank\’s again.
Love to you, Jax .
YOUR LIGHT IS BEAUTIFUL. We all have it, but it’s about letting it shine, which you my dear are certainly doing.
P.S.
How cool is that video of Hawaii! Wow! Breath taking. I too am a avid videographer/photographer who is looking into purchasing the 5D mark III. But I’ll tell you what… if I had an extra 5D laying around it would be yours. In a heartbeat!
You shine so bright! You’re such an inspiration for all of us to follow and continue in our paths of transcendence and happiness! Thank You!
amazing and awesome and a mutitalented person from a talented family. Cheers!
