Liana ShantiSaved My Life

Never have I been more grateful for you and your programs than right now. Hardest work I've ever done but beyond worth it is an understatement.

I would say I'm getting my life back, but I never had a life before finding you. Growing up in constant trauma but being told you had a great life and the best childhood is soooo confusing, and listening to each and every one of your Liana Shanti programs has unraveled the TRUTH for me.

The clearings and the teachings to help you understand are the most beautiful pairing. How anyone can do life without your work is now beyond my comprehension.

Thank you Liana Shanti. I get to build my life the way God intended it to be because of you. Forever grateful. I love you.

Back to all stories

The very fabric of humanity is woven with individual stories. Stories of pain, trauma, grief, joy, miracles, and love. Mine is but just a single thread that's been kept hidden for 38 years. Hidden in part because I didn't know how to make sense of it myself, let alone share it. But also hidden under a massive abandonment and rejection wound.

What will people think? Will it make them uncomfortable? Will it make them cringe to hear some of the things I needed to say? Will every single person I know abandon me and leave me standing alone. THAT was the real fear. Not calling people out. Not being gossiped about. Not even being called a liar.

Standing alone.

My entire life, I believed to my core I was never worthy to stand alone. Worthy to take up space. Worthy to receive love. Ironic, as "Amanda" carries the Latin meaning "loveable, worthy of love."

Growing up with this belief, I had always believed I had to give more of myself in order to be deemed worthy of inclusion. They'll have to invite me if I offer to bring the snacks. They'll have to include me if I offer to drive my parents' vehicle that we all fit in. All the while, reinforcing subconsciously to myself that as I was, I was not enough.

I had no voice. Ironically, early on in school, I won awards for oratory, for speaking on stage. I had a strong, clear voice. When it was someone else's words. My own? Completely failed me at times I needed them most. I would get these waves of courage to speak up about the sexual abuse I was enduring but then would revert back to that very same fear of standing alone, because I was told "nobody would believe me."

I have carried the memories of the abuse, and my abusers, for my entire life. An older cousin shoving his tongue down my throat repeatedly and making me touch him, my babysitter's boyfriend raping my then 6 year old self repeatedly, a school teacher forcing himself upon me during a field trip where I was too sick to sleep outside in the tent, so I had to stay in the cabin. There's more. A lot more, actually.

These traumas shaped who I became as a person, my relationship with myself, my relationship with sex and intimacy, my relationship with food, and in a sense severed my vocal chords. I was seething angry at my parents for not protecting me. I was buried under a cloak of shame, of guilt, and wanted NOBODY to see me. From as long as I can remember, I just wanted to hide. Enter being overweight almost my entire life. LITERALLY hiding behind fat.

I wasn't modelled body positivity as a child. I wasn't really modelled much, actually. Sure, my parents provided a lot for us from a physical and material need. Good Lord, see what I'm doing here, I'm trying to soften this. This shit runs deep.

Yes, we had a home, and food, and my parents both worked really hard. But man, did they fall short when it came to communication and offering up unconditional love. I always felt SO guilty being upset about what I was missing from them because somehow it was taking away from the physical things they did provide. All I wanted was to be acknowledged. Even during the big moments in life. Getting my period for the first time? BARELY a conversation. Talk about sex? FORGET IT. How to handle conflict and the tough stuff? You guessed it, silence. No wonder I hated myself. And no wonder I started resenting my own kids when THEY started needing those things from me. Kids are such a fucking wake up call.

Fast forward to 2015 or so. I was up to my eyeballs in the new age world and couldn't get enough of it. I THOUGHT I HAD THE RIGHT PEOPLE, THE RIGHT FRIENDS, I WAS MANIFESTING MY DREAM LIFE according to Louise Hay. EXCEPT IT WAS ALL THE DREAM LIFE FOR THE PERSONA I HAD CREATED TO HIDE ALL THE PAIN. And unbeknownst to me at the time, I was just recreating the same cycle of pain in different forms from different actors out of the same screenplay.

Enter Liana Shanti. I know a lot of you know "of" her through various shares or things I've posted, but I haven't ever done a great job of outlining exactly who she is to ME. She is my teacher. A word that seems so simple, but yet embodies so much.

The Mother Wound program was the first course of Liana Shanti's that I enrolled in. I had heard about her from a few friends that followed her on social, and another friend who was already taking a different program.

The first call of Mother Wound coincided with the birth of our youngest son. It makes me smile to this day going back to that first live call because it serves as a very pivotal, tangible moment in the changing trajectory of my life. I fully realized that I couldn't meet any of my own kids' needs if I didn't meet the needs of my own inner children and gain their full trust.

After Mother Wound came Lifepath, where Liana said to me "I thought for sure you were going to check out and not complete the program after the first call" and ALL of the rejection and abandonment wounds just came flooding through. Oh, not you too. I'm HERE and I'm fucking committed.

After Lifepath came Father Wound and learning how to offer to my inner children what they didn't receive. And to let go truly of the anger and resentment I felt. What a peaceful feeling to not harbor blame any longer.

Then came the Narcissism course.

Breaking down on the floor during the first call. Holy fuck, I do ALL of those things. I am a narc. That's what I do in relationships. Liana confirmed for me that I was not actually a narc but had adopted a lot of narcissistic tendencies as a coping mechanism. Another unravelling, peeling back another layer of the onion, re-living trauma in order to heal it for good. At this point, I almost walked away. This work is HARD.

I decided instead, I was taking my piece off the board. I was no longer playing that game. I didn't know making that choice was even an option until Liana's work.

Being a part of Liana's community has been a massive blessing in my life. To offer unconditional love through all of the messy work. To patiently answer question after question, waiting for me to come to my own understanding of whatever it was I was working through. To lovingly remind me that the answers are always within myself whenever I would say "can you just TELL ME WHAT TO DO."

But the best part? She brought me to my relationship with Jesus. I didn't realize that you could have that outside of the church. I don't know how many times over the years I have heard her say YOU ALL HAVE YOUR OWN DIRECT CONNECTION TO JESUS before it clicked. Now, I chat with JC every day. I FEEL him with me and I send gratitude to Liana every day for helping me to make that connection.

I send gratitude every day to my kids for showing me what I need to see. It's not their job to provide us with perfect behavior. It's OUR job to give them what they need, when they need it. Make sure they know they are worthy and loved. This, by far, is the hardest work I've done to date, as I'm constantly being reminded where I'm falling short. But instead of sulking and coming at it with a sense of authority, I have softened so much that some days I don't even recognize myself. I am still a work in progress, yes, but I don't even recognize the parent I was even a year ago.

I send gratitude every day for my work. Because in all of this mess, designing has been my safe place. It's how I can truly express myself without fear of judgement. I don't know how to explain this clearly, other than, when I couldn't BE myself truly, I poured my true self into my design work and it comes out that way. Maybe that's why I adore our clients so much. Because quite possibly they're drawn in by the real me?

I'm not sure where my life would have ended up had I not fully surrendered, and simultaneously dove into the trenches to do this self work. It is NOT for the faint of heart. I do know that it would have headed straight down the track towards another divorce. Shit relationships with my kids. Shit bank accounts. More drinking, probably some weed thrown in there too. A serious illness diagnosis from carrying so much stress.

A while ago, someone sent me a conveniently timed post by an old friend that was alluding to the fact that I was making up my abuse. That it wasn't real. That the memories were being planted by my teacher. Citing "false memory syndrome" which, by the way, is actually NOT a thing, and has been debunked. And, as a side note, if you ever feel the need to discredit a victim's abuse story, you've got some deep work to do there.

Seeing that post made my entire body immediately constrict and go into fear – and thank goodness I have the tools now to release that. It doesn't matter what others say. Our story is OURS to tell from our own lens.

We are free to be exactly who we are and we ARE worthy of unconditional love, no matter the opinions of others.

Very recently, I was tested on this exact thing. Thrown right into the fucking fire. Do you REALLY not care what people think? Let's find out. I watched as myself, my husband, Liana, and several friends got defamed, slandered, and accused of all sorts of ridiculousness including orchestrating and running a cult.

I watched long-time friends run towards the sensational gossip instead of towards us in support. Send in their own "juicy details" of what they thought they had on me. I watched long-standing work relationships worry more about "how it made them look." I watched family members unfriend me on social media, embarrassed to be associated with me. I waited for calls and check-in texts that for the most part never came. I cherished those that did come in, as at that time they were a bit of a life-raft of sorts.

That entire situation in and of itself is a story for another day, and trust me, it's a good one. But the point of bringing it up here and now is to highlight two of the many silver linings that have come from going through that entire situation. The first was that I was clearly shown who I can let go of for good, who isn't allowed to take up space on my raft. And more importantly, I can truly say, after 38 years, without any shadow of a doubt, that I DO NOT CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK OF ME. I AM ENOUGH. I AM WORTHY. I AM UNAPOLOGETICALLY ME.

And, I am just getting started. Oh, and I'm down 45 pounds.

At the end of the day, we all have our threads. Our personal stories woven into the fabric of life. The difference between a frayed thread ready to completely break, and one that's strong enough to provide strength and integrity to the entire fabric? Finding yourself a teacher, a relationship with Jesus, and DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

Whether I am writing about family cults, narcissism, toxic families, relationships, repressed emotions, death, autoimmune disorders, brain health, or how to improve your overall health, it is with a passion for understanding, as I have experienced all of it. I'm also invested daily in healing my soul.

I grew up in a family cult, that also was enmeshed in a religious Catholicism cult, and also filled with narcissism, toxicity, and abuse – sexual, emotional, and physical – which led to everything else that I listed above.

The repressed emotions were buried deep. They were protecting me from what my inner children couldn't handle and did not want to remember. Our brains will do all they can to protect us from 0 to 7, and knowing all I do today, I am grateful God created our brains to be as they are.

A pattern in my family cult was pain and suffering. I learned it well. As I had no skillset to understand how to release all I was holding onto emotionally, plus add in all that I had repressed, sooner or later, illnesses would happen.

I learned about how the body stores everything during my studies with Health Mastery Institute and with individual work with Liana Shanti. Comically, inner children and their importance were hardly touched in my master's or doctorate programs in mental health.

Most professors I came across didn't have any understanding of inner children, nor did they choose to learn. I did. I am grateful as that is what began my healing process.

It takes courage to become aware and heal. If you are looking for awareness, understanding, or to find tools to heal, I am glad you found this page.

That is part of my service work.

To guide others to be their best and ultimately choose to heal their souls. I will not say it is easy to do any of this, but I can say if you do, the changes in your life will be amazing. I am living proof of that.

Often we do not believe we grew up in a family cult or that our illnesses are tied to our childhood. I get it. I struggled with this too. It's because our ego wants proof right now. We live in a society of quick fixes. I can say with honesty that awareness and healing will most likely not happen overnight. It will be the choices you make every hour to heal. Only you can decide.

Show me an angry person, and I'll show you a person that has been hurt. The angrier the person, the more hurt they've endured.

When there is healing, I'll show you a person that has tremendous love, care and compassion, beginning with loving themselves.

Thank you God for the hurt, for leading me to healing – thank you Liana Shanti for your teachings, programs, and friendship – for it has shown me how to forgive myself, others, take accountability and love unconditionally.

Ten years ago, I was searching for nutritional guidance and came across Liana Shanti and Rawganic Vegan. Her teachings in nutrition, then her online nutrition and health coaching program, began the journey of me healing my body, mind, and spirit.

I had been sick for nearly 30 years living with the remnants of autoimmune and chronic illnesses when I found Liana. She guided me to more profound healing, and we developed a friendship I cherish.

As she grew into her online presence, many in her community encouraged, gently pushed, her to share all of her gifts. Her connection to Jesus was heard and felt in everything she taught and shared. She created programs for her students to heal their traumas and wounds. She encouraged us to heal and empower ourselves.

Many of us did. In the beginning, I questioned everything she said that didn't align with my beliefs and education. Yet, when I listened first, everything she said sounded familiar and meant for me. The more I listened to her programs and did the healing work, my life changed. I began to get better. I no longer had any leftover effects from autoimmune diseases or chronic illnesses.

One of the autoimmune disorders was secondary progressive MS. It had caused havoc with my body. I had stopped all meds before finding Liana, but aspects were still lingering in my system. Her protocols in nutrition cleansed and purged layers of toxins. My body and mind were clearing. I no longer needed any assistive devices. I was healing.

I went deeper. I looked at my family of origin in a new way. Liana's teachings showed me layers that I was never introduced to in studying clinical mental health counseling. I have both a master's and doctorate degree in the field. Yet, it was Liana's teachings that guided me to the layers of narcissism, addiction, sexual abuse, incest, and more.

I began seeing layers of events I had blocked. Add in generational secrets in the family, many I was threatened with, and I clearly saw the family cult I was born into. Those lies led to many more, including my partner's relationship, continued abuse in the next generation, and more. The more I uncovered, the more I knew this path of healing was for me. I left my relationship, then the family cult. I began healing codependency and enabling with my son. I changed every aspect of myself and continued to heal.

Liana has guided me to start businesses. One of my businesses is focused on health and wellness, autoimmune disorders, repressed emotions, grief and trauma, and more. The growth allowed me to retire from counseling in 2021. This year Liana brought to me a business and program to create. It was perfect for me. Family Cult Recovery was born and blossoming in a couple of weeks. It's growing steadily. My healing continues.

I am a vocal proponent of all of Liana Shanti's teachings. They have not only changed my life but saved me from where I was headed. I will be forever grateful to her. My life is blessed, and it's lifeproof her teachings work.

I’ve always had this unquenchable thirst to find The Truth, even as a child.

In 2020 I watched the world around us change instantly. I was an elementary teacher, with my own 3 children in school, during a time the world was ignoring the trauma being caused to kids for a seemingly endless amount of time.

And yet no one was talking about it. Young kids would ask logical questions and were using better critical thinking skills than adults who were supposed to be experts.

I knew deep in my soul there must be someone who could answer the questions I had since childhood that were becoming louder each day during this global chaos.

New Age social media accounts seemed to at least be speaking out against some things by 2021, however it became apparent it was all fluff. Just like “Truthers”, there was no accountability. Only a focus on blame or numbing out.

I wanted solutions to how we could protect ourselves and our children. I didn’t want to escape with drugs or wine or meditate in a closet for hours getting downloads from an unknown “Source”.

I didn’t want to be told by Priests who committed horrific crimes against children that God would be angry if I didn’t do what I was told to do. I knew enough from past relationships about abuse, gaslighting, projection, shaming and intimidating to spot manipulation when it was this obvious.

In June 2021, I first came across Liana Shanti’s Instagram account. That same week Liana posted about Jesus. I immediately unfollowed her, as I mistakenly assumed she was a part of some sort of religious cult.

I didn’t know the True Jesus, but I had always seen the hypocrisy of organized religions and wanted no part in following an authoritarian God. Coming across Liana’s IG account was about to change my life. I know now it wasn’t random.

During the month that followed I began a free fall out of my comfort tree and hit every branch on the way down.

I was praying to Jesus daily for strength, even though I had never directly prayed to Him before. I watched friends, family members and parents from my school community proudly post on social media accounts photos of forcing their kids (these beautiful souls - many I had known since birth) to get something I knew was experimental and had devastating side effects.

My marriage to a covert narcissistic husband that I was hanging onto like a barnacle ended abruptly. My 6 figure career I had loved and had dedicated over 2 decades of my life to was in jeopardy.

Newly separated I was about to be fired for the first time in my life. I had no backup.

As an overachieving people-pleaser during that time I began having crushing anxiety attacks I had never experienced before. I was shunned by the majority of my family, my friends and my coworkers.

Deep in grief and freeze mode, I would listen to Liana’s IG Stories nightly where she would post clips of her weekly Illuminations. I was so drawn to her voice, that despite my initial hesitation that Liana was super religious, I followed her account again when she began talking about a Business School she was creating.

I actually laugh now thinking back on this moment, as I might be the only student of Liana’s that was drawn to her during this time due to her Business School. I had no idea she was the founder of HMI Wellness, had been teaching plant-based nutrition since 2012 or that she offered a multitude of programs for energy healing!

All I knew at the time was that I was not going to comply with my school board’s illegal medical privacy demands, and instantly knew that Liana’s B School was what I had been looking for. I LOVED Liana’s vast educational background, that she had been an exceptional Wall Street Lawyer at the best law firm in the world, and that she spoke of what the world was going to look like in the coming years.

It also helped that she has an amazing sense of humor, loves animals and kids, holds strong ethical boundaries, and is a fierce advocate for victims of domestic abuse.

I purchased Illuminations in November 2021 during my wait for B School to be released. I purchased Liana’s Narc Healing Program, Father Wound and Mother Wound in December 2021, and by the time Liana’s 12D B School was released in 2022 I had already purchased more healing programs. I knew I had found the person I had been searching for! Liana has so much knowledge and is endlessly patient in the way she teaches.

In 2022, I resigned from my elementary teaching career without a Plan B, pulled my children to homeschool and began my own business to empower and guide parents in home education.

I sold my home, and almost everything we owned, to begin the immigration process to move to sunny Florida from Ontario, Canada. I made choice after choice to feel discomfort in the unknown, feeling empowered in my own intuition and ability to create my best life.

By Christmas of 2022, I had purchased HMI and most of the HMI health electives. I lost over 40lbs doing Liana’s Candida cleanse in 2023, completely eliminated chronic migraines and became fully plant-based.

At a time where everyone I used to know was experiencing constant fear, stress and serious health issues, I moved myself, my 3 kids and our cat to a new country, started a thriving business and became the healthiest and happiest I have ever been in my life!

I had no clue my life was about to get EVEN BETTER this year.

Liana’s life-changing programs exceeded ALL of my expectations in April 2024 with Magnetic Money Manifesting. Every program, podcast, Live or post Liana shares has immense value and is incredibly helpful.

But MMM – I truly do not have words to describe it. It’s not just about quantum physics and money. Every soul on Earth WILL see immediate results from this 9 day immersive program. The rapid changes I have seen since MMM began in the spring have been nothing short of miraculous. I am in awe of what Liana continues to create!

Liana is the most unconditionally loving teacher that has ever existed - other than the True Jesus. Not only did she save my life with her teachings on health, business and spirituality, but she led me back to myself. She led me back to Jesus.

Liana’s teachings guide you back to the magnificent, beautiful, intelligent humans we ALL are. I am a better mother because of Liana. I no longer carry the guilt and shame we were programmed with as children through authoritarian parenting and the school system.

With healing, I replace fear with joy, struggle with ease, blame with accountability in every area of my life and I am Free. Thank you Liana, I am eternally grateful and am so immensely blessed to have you as my teacher.

I found Liana Shanti’s page back in 2021 during COVID lockdowns and was immediately drawn to her page amongst all the new age fluff that typically flooded my instagram.

What struck me was how she wrote with such conviction. Like a true 1/4 profile in human design, I read through ALL of her stories, posts, comments, and even looked at the comments and pages of the women who followed her.

Many things were triggering but also many things she spoke about that I had suspected in all of my 21 years of living during the time. I immediately followed her and threw out this awesome tarot deck I had recently gotten.

From there I purchased her Father wound course, then Narcissistic relationships program, and then mother wound. The culmination of using these healing programs along with a lot of empowering and initiating on my part helped me cut off my narcissistic family cult within that same year and surrender to Jesus.

In my teen years, I was staunchly opposed to anything abrahamic religion and increasingly afro-centric. If you would’ve told teen Zaria then that she’d be following Jesus now, she’d probably cuss you out. But that was because I didn’t know who he was. Only what my patriarchal Christian upbringing had taught me. Which honestly wasn’t much either.

The more I learn about him and what his true teachings are, the more I understand who he is what I’ve been looking for all my fucking life. To have discovered Liana in a time like this is nothing short of a miracle.

My healing journey is still ever unfolding, but the woman I am today is picking up her pen to creatively write again, making better decisions, more unconditionally loving of herself, and surrendering to the TRUE Jesus.

I’m so thankful for all of who Liana is.

“Unconditional love and accountability go hand in hand.”

Dreaming wasn’t something I did as a child. Following your dreams was not encouraged or supported. I came from a family of workers.

I loved art and making jewelry, photography and yet these gifts were dismissed. Get a job that can pay the bills and support you. Always have a back up. These were the messages that were repeated over and over, but I came from a family that made clothing, hats and sold fabrics for a living. I always thought that was art. Fashion is art and it never occurred to me that I could or couldn’t be an artist.

When I fell in love with photography in high school, and wanted to pursue it, it wasn’t encouraged.

I found a love of writing in college. I had a few professors that saw promise in me. I was one of the founders of the college newspaper. Wrote articles that nearly got me thrown out. Ruffled feathers. I was really good, I loved it, and yet another dream that wasn’t supported. Get a job that you can make a living at. Your cousin writes for the Catholic Journal and barely squeaks by. You won’t make a living or have food on the table.

I still didn’t believe or know I could dream big. Not yet.

I kept trying to write, working on my own blogs, short stories, desperately trying to get a job with Condé Nast all while still making and selling a bit of jewelry, doing art shows, and was told I was really really good.. But I didn’t believe in myself. I tried a few things hoping not to become a teacher like my parents. But, I became a middle school ELA teacher. It was my last resort … Something I swore I would never ever do … never say never, right. I wasn’t able to leave teaching and pursue the arts full time. I never thought I could. I didn’t trust myself enough, my talent enough, or God enough. It just wasn’t what people around me did.

I never thought I would leave New York. I used to joke that I would die there and be buried in my front yard which was the size of a postage stamp. I grew up in Brooklyn and lived there for 42 years. I inherited my familial home that was built by my great grandfather who came from Italy. He was a self made man … whether he followed a passion, a skill, a gift or saw a need and was a shrewd businessman, I’ll never know. He was a real asshole. There was very little love between him and his children. He was not a divine masculine at all. A womanizer, nasty and cold and hurtful with his words. The wounding ran deep.

It was built by our family and only our family ever lived there. I grew up spending loads of time there, and my daughter was brought home there. We built a family there and I was so embedded in the familial story of not ever selling it. Not ever leaving. The energy in the house was always negative, no matter what we tried and did, how much joy we had or created. It was just sad and angry and mad all at once. Always longing for something I can only see now.

It wasn’t meant to be our forever home.

For years I always agreed to things to keep the peace but I didn’t feel right about them. I was broken by my mother, father, the school system, church and society. Honor thy father and thy mother. Listen to your elders. Do what they tell you. Don’t have your own opinions, don't think for yourself.

I would sometimes get the courage to argue with the nuns in school only to be told to take it on faith but I knew something wasn’t right. So I kept searching. I knew how I was being raised in an abusive house wasn’t right. So I kept searching. For answers, for help, for a teacher.

I tried lots of things, many of them dark (I didn’t know it at the time) because church and religion didn’t feel right. I shunned them. I read about Buddha and Wicca. The earth and nature and bits and pieces of that felt like home but nothing truly felt right.

When I finally asked Blessed Mother flat out for help. She led me to find Liana Shanti and her teaching about the true Jesus. The teachings about loving yourself and standing up for yourself. Speaking up when it is uncomfortable, getting out of your comfort zone. Surrendering to Jesus letting Him truly show you. Being open to knowledge and learning. The teachings about taking care of yourself, spiritual body and physical body. The fact that mind, body and soul are all ONE. You cannot treat them in a manner that isn’t WHOLE.

The foods you eat, the things you read, the job you do, the people you surround yourself with. Everything we consume in every way…it all contributes. Finding Liana was a lightbulb in the darkest of rooms I didn’t even know I was in. A life so filled with pleasing others that I didn’t even truly know who I was. Likes and dislikes, truly feeling into my heart. Honoring my feelings and what my soul KNEW was the truth. Things I was programmed away from or deliberately kept from. I didn’t see all of that until I spoke to Mary that day and she showed me.

You have to look at yourself as Jesus does… perfect all the time. At our best. And we MUST treat ourselves that way because we are always connected to God. He created us. He looked around and said yes… you need to be here to do My work.

I never thought my dreams could actually come true. Being a Jewelry Designer. Making art full time! Making a love filled home with all the bells and whistles… in the sun working for myself. I never thought I could achieve it. I have learned truly that through God comes all things. He has a plan for me and it’s my job to surrender to Him, heal my wounds so I can be and do what He needs me to do. Walk this earth in light and be an example for others.

Liana Shanti’s teachings have been an integral part of my life since 2015 after coming across her RawganicVegan page.

I had been on a search for answers on how to heal my body from addiction. I purchased her first nutrition program and started as a fly on the wall in her FB group learning from the sidelines witnessing the lifeproof in others healing journeys.

I questioned why I was so unhappy inside. I felt a sense of hope reading the success stories & I came to believe healing was possible for me too. I was learning things that my soul felt was right and I began to look at my choices.

I wanted change and to learn everything that she was teaching.

But my life on the outside didn’t match what I felt within and my limiting beliefs held me back in low self worth so I continued to live my life the only way I knew how, staying in the comfort of a repetitive cycle & toxic patterns.

I always knew I had a choice to change. It was a battle within and I was slow to trust the process although I could clearly see others success.

When 2020 came I knew it was time to wake up as the rest of the world did.

After struggling with the grip addiction had on me, I needed to come home to myself & finally take care of my body.

As Liana said in Illuminations it was the year of Homecoming. I had also been listening to her weekly forecasts since 2015 that provided insight into how the cosmic energies influenced our life.

I had always had an interest in astrology but her energy offered support and tools that uplifted me and I could feel my trust for her in my soul.

I had also enrolled in HMI in 2020 to continue learning from a science based perspective of what true health was, my motto became that if I was going to be coaching others and “talk the talk, I had to walk the walk.” This initiated my journey to start healing candida from my body.

An entirely new world opened up for me without drugs and alcohol and I’m proud to say I have been free from them since.

I could see the beauty in everything I was surrounded by. It was through Liana’s healing programs that brought me to a deeper connection into my spirituality where I found a true relationship with Jesus.

After years of trying to make misaligned jobs and relationships work, thinking I could save, rescue and please others above myself, I was putting energy into being something I wasn’t, and in turn stuffed my true self away causing unnecessary pain.

I finally felt a sense of hope and strength enough for myself to break free of the chains that held me back for most of my life.

Without @LianaShanti choosing to step into her path on earth at this time along with her constant commitment to teaching in unconditional love & encouraging our own direct relationship with Jesus, I wouldn’t have found my way out.

You’ve always given me hope and that’s something I’ve been able to hold on to throughout my healing path especially when I didn’t know how I’d make it through some of life’s most difficult challenges.

As a result of her teachings, I have been set free. I allow and trust Jesus to guide my life now and not the coping mechanisms that once controlled my life.

Looking at how my life has changed and how much more I have to look forward to in building my life, floods me with excitement! As I continue my journey into deeper healing in body, mind and spirit using her programs, it brings me comfort knowing that I am always held and supported by Jesus.

I pray that everyone seeking true healing at this time finds you Liana. You are a true blessing and a gift from God. Thank you for everything that you are, stand for and continue to be.

Liana Shanti has never wanted or asked anyone to say that she’s saved our lives.

She’s always saying “YOU are here to save YOURSELVES.”

When she says that, she’s referring to saving our souls.

And I suppose that IS true. No one else can save our souls except for us.

Not even Jesus– the man whose teachings she’s dedicated her life to sharing with the world. His real teachings.

Nope, it’s up to us.

Yet if it weren’t for her choosing to tirelessly and FEARLESSLY do the work that she does day after day after day, thousands of people in this world would have no idea that they even NEED saving or HOW to do it.

Thousands of us would have no idea that escaping fathers who’ve sexually abused us, leaving husbands who treat us like objects, and healing addictions that rob us of our futures is literally SOUL-SAVING.

But because of her, we do.

And it was her teachings that gave me the tools, the awareness, and the support network I needed during a personal 911 earlier this year.

A day where I feel that she literally saved my life and helped catapult me onto a whole new path.

And it’s her teachings that continue to help me humble myself and show me where I need to KEEP doing the work to STAY on this path.

A path that’s not always easy – there’s a reason why it’s the road less traveled – and yet is a path I’d choose again and again over another Christmas spent drunk, high, and hugging my abusers.

Because that life wasn’t easy either. I was just too numb to feel it.

It also lacked the PURPOSE, the JOY, and the LOVE that choosing this path has provided.

And what kind of a life is one without purpose, joy, and love anyway?

A life that needs saving.

And thanks to Liana, I am learning to do that all on my own.

(Even though, deep down, I still feel a TON of credit needs to go to her.)

I love you, Liana – not just for what you do and have done – but for who you ARE. You are love, and because of you, I am learning to BE love, too.

Merry Christmas to ALL I know who are walking this path less traveled. May we all choose LOVE over everything else in 2024.

I was introduced to Liana Shanti thru her health coaching programs that my wife was going thru. We as a couple struggled with weight loss and was surround by toxic foods and people. I started to get into it more for health purposes like high blood pressure. I weighed 310 pounds at my heaviest.

I learned thru Liana's teachings that it wasn't only the foods that took a toll on my obese weight it was lots of emotional aspects that I've personally been thru in my life time. I learned that the only person that can heal me or change me is ME! Liana's teachings have been a blessing for me to learn to LOVE myself no matter what life brings in my path.

I come from a Hispanic family that were always so negative, verbally abusive, physically abusive. Working in toxic job as a letter carrier for the UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE for 7 years. I decided to transfer to a Florida post office thinking it would be better it was not same toxicity.

Liana's teachings always have been always filled with love, encouragement to have self love to succeed in life. She has never made any decisions for the choices in life that me or my wife have made. It was all up to US to empower ourselves for the best.

We are business owners that have exceeded past all the shit talking that we will never succeed in our business. If it wasn't for all the amazing teachings and love from Liana I would be stuck in the same shit hole my life was in. God's Lane Only!

Everyone needs a role model in life. Mine is Liana Shanti. The only real one. There’s so much confusion in this world, and the reason why so many influencers/youtubers are successful today is not because they have a true desire to help, unlike Liana Shanti. All they do is showcase their life that they’ve achieved only because you are watching them, but they don’t truly give you real, tangible tools to get there yourself. There’s no substance.

Liana does so much for this World. Her whole body of work has only one goal: for us to be empowered, sovereign and free, and she does that through one means only: unconditional love. For us to realise that there’s nothing wrong with us, we’re not unfixable, we’re not broken, we’re not a mistake, we’re not unworthy; we’re wounded. And she’s the only one who offers you deeply healing and transformative tools such as Mother Wound and Father Wound Programs, among many others.

Since doing her work, I have quit weed, alcohol and eating dead animals.

But mostly, I have found hope and faith after a couple years of thinking I had lost that forever and dissociating to the point that I didn’t even feel alive and wasn’t even sure I wanted to be. I really, deeply, truly pondered this. Stopped eating for 4 months and was smoking weed even after throwing up from smoking too much weed and drinking too much alcohol at the same time. I went into a very dark place I wouldn’t wish anyone to experience.

Thanks to her generosity and all the free content she offers, I completely stopped smoking weed almost 3 years ago and never even felt the need to look back. Same for alcohol since last year. I also used to stay in situations and jobs, and around people longer than I should because I wasn’t feeling worthy of anything better.

But thanks to Liana’s guidance across her different programs, I was able to let go of the people holding me back and changed my line of work and today I know I have a lot of things I want to bring to this world and I’m looking forward to all of it. Healing is a life-long process and although I still have much more work to do, all that truly matters is that I know that by finding Liana I’ve found the way out of my conditioning and towards Jesus, this Quiet, Unseen but Heartfelt Force that keeps me going even when I feel blocked.

I don’t feel hopeless anymore, and that’s the key. Even though it took me some time after finding her, I knew I had found HOPE and sure enough I found faith, too. I remember looking at Liana’s website for the first time and feeling like I had just hit a massive pile of gold. And I still feel that way. Today I KNOW there’s so much more life has to offer. Today I KNOW without a shadow of a doubt that I DO want to be here to see it and make it happen, however long it takes and however many bumps I’ll go over on the road. Liana, thank you a million time for being the fierce, unapologetic light this world desperately needs – and thank you for all the triggers that allow me/us to be willing to look deeper. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

As I sit here after my glorious coffee enema and think of how far I have come & how much I have grown & learned & expanded, even when at times reluctantly, in less than 8 months, my heart is filled with love & gratitude for Liana Shanti & her teachings!!

When I enrolled for Health Mastery Institute (my passion) & started following Liana on Instagram over 1 year ago I would’ve never imagine my life would be turned upside down.

Or better, my life would be turned upside up, cause there was no more going down from where I already was!!!

I was in a soul sucking job having panic attacks daily from the amount of work being piled onto me, without a proper holiday for 9 years, trying to earn a living while dying of burnout…

I was in a verbal, emotional & physically abusive marriage with a Narcissist, being cheated on daily…

I was submitting myself to socializing with the man who sexually abused me throughout my childhood… Little did I know that signing up for a 66 day Cleanse and a Lifepath Manifesting program would turn my life around.

The light within me was dying & I didn’t know how to re-ignite it!

I am eternally grateful to Liana for saving my soul, for showing me how to keep my light within burning brighter so that I may, one day, also be a shinning light to anyone who needs it!

This ain’t for the faint hearted… and it may take a while to surrender because we are so conditioned to believe that we are not worthy of loving ourselves.

But it is only in loving ourselves that we can truly love our loved ones, that we can show them how to love themselves back, because we don’t need anyone exterior to love or accept us.

The Kingdom of God IS inside of us!! We are made in the image of God! Perfect!

And these were the teachings of Jesus!

We don’t love ourselves when we expect validation! We don’t love when we do things so others can approve. We don’t love ourselves by being martyrs & complying…

Thank you Liana Shanti for being you!

Some say you are a cult… if being in a cult means that I am healthier, happier with myself without needing validation from others, doing what I love, strong & empowered to defend myself & my loved ones, knowing my worth & wanting to be of service to people through health coaching, then there should be more cults like yours cause the cults out there seem quite miserable.

I met Liana Shanti in 2014/2015 when I began my search for better physical health.. I was so determined to change my life and so started this journey with 66 day Health mastery, Candida cleanse, Parasite cleanse and throughout the healing of my body, my journey to healing my spiritual, mental health would be awakened with every word she spoke.

I started listening to what she had to say and for the first time in my life, it all made sense, everything made sense. I knew, deep down that what I had been taught my whole life was not “it”.. there had to be more..and boy was there more. More than I could ever have imagined. So my journey continued with Light Body, then Lifepath, HMI, MW and also Illuminations.

Everything brought me closer to Jesus, not the Jesus religion taught us about but the real unconditional loving Jesus that is real and in learning about His unconditional love, I started learning about unconditional love of myself, my people, everyone, the animals, the plants and my perception of everything shifted. I started letting go of toxic people in my life, letting go of toxic beliefs about work, about religion, about family cults, self-loathing, guilt, shame.

Healing is not a one and done deal, it is a process of peeling back the layers and discovering more and more that needs to be done, but that’s ok because as I peel back the layers I am becoming who I was meant to be and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Back to all stories

Liana Shanti helped me to get my life back! Since finding her teachings, I’ve stopped engaging in toxic behaviors like smoking weed, I’ve ended an addiction to sleeping pills, I’ve stopped drinking alcohol and have become empowered enough to cut out toxic people from my life.

I have the healthiest body I’ve ever had and as an athlete, am performing and feeling the strongest I’ve ever felt.

Most importantly I am learning to live authentically and operate within my truth. As I continue to heal my wounds through her programs, I am becoming more and more the real me.

Her teachings have led me back to the truth of who I am and I couldn’t be more grateful. Life continues to feel more beautiful and limitless.

The In Between…

Where the land meets the sky
Where the sun touches the ocean
The calm before the storm
The rainbow after the rain
Where the heart collides with the soul
Where hope is born while words cannot be spoken

It was so dark…my eyes could not see. My heart was so numb. But in between, my soul held an energy that unconditionally reassured me there was more to life than this.

The feeling in between that saved my life.

That glimmer of hope, sliver of love, slice of faith, flash of light that exists in the in between.

A cry for help, a prayer for answers. Please God, define this in between, because I do not feel worthy of such hope.

I was shown a teacher who defined the in between in words.

Her name is @LianaShanti.

The embodiment of hope
Unconditional love in the flesh
Speaker of Divine words

And that was the day my weary heart could rest, my tired eyes dried, my weak hands transformed, and my soul ignited.

Sometimes it just takes that one person. And she’s that person. She’s my in between. The catalyst between surviving and thriving. The turning point. The lighthouse. The compass.

I will never be the same. She has taught me how I am truly worthy. And if optimal mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health is wrong, I never want to be right.

Liana, thank you for teaching me about above, below, and everything in between.

I will stand with God, in service, unafraid, as a leader in between, where the unknown will be known, and hope will be defined.

Back to all stories

Just like Jesus never claimed to be a Savior, neither has Liana Shanti. She teaches that ONLY YOU CAN SAVE YOURSELF. She says, "Don't believe me. Do the work. Implement the teachings of Unconditional Love. Get your own life proof."

Only you have control over your thoughts and actions. Only you have control over your heart. Only you have the ability to be accountable, look at the dark shit you've done and HEAL YOUR SHADOW.

Only you can rescue your inner children. Not even mom and dad can come back and save them, although that's what they're waiting for.

But guess what?

I'm not the only one who was floundering around in life. Miserable. Hopeless. Worthless. Wishing I could just hurry up and die already. Wondering what the point of my life was. Addicted to porn, TV, food, pain.

I had no clue what the fuck I was doing.

So to me, going from someone who used to hate herself, believing she was evil at her core – to loving herself and seeing the beautiful brilliance of GOD within?

I mean, that sounds life saving to me. Because if Liana wasn't here, doing the work she is doing, I would still be obese, fat, miserable, hating my body. Searching for crumbs of love from men. Struggling financially. Living through other people's lives on TV shows. Wasting my life.

If you don't know how to get where you want to go, you need a guide. Plain and simple.

For as long as I can remember, I've been searching. Searching for ways to get rich, for love, for the fad diet that would finally help me lose 100 pounds, and for ways to fix myself, so I could finally be happy.

My mom put me on a calorie restricted diet at the age of 12, per the recommendation of a nutritionist. I started trying to make money in 5th grade by sewing bean bag animals and selling them to my friends.

In junior high, I overheard a teacher comment that a girl my age already had a well performing stock portfolio. So I decided I wanted to learn about stocks and investing.

I tried every diet under the sun. I read self help and self improvement books like they were going out of style. I got into real estate, thinking that's how I was going to make it rich.

I tried selling on eBay, Amazon, day trading, MLM businesses, internet marketing – whatever it was that promised to make me rich. I bought so many courses, hoping there would be new information that would catapult me to the next level.

In high school, I started playing video games, because that's what one of the guys I liked did. I was a chameleon. Changing who I was, pretending I liked what they liked, hoping they would like me, too. Although I never really knew who I was anyway.

I didn't know what a healthy romantic relationship looked like, and I had such low self worth, that I put up with incredibly poor treatment.

I thought that this was the only man that would ever love me, so I had to hang on. I didn't want to lose that love, because I believed I would never have it again.

I was on several medications for depression throughout my life. I tried to find love in food, TV, porn, romance novels, faceless men on the internet. Just constantly searching for SOMETHING.

Nine years ago, my co-worker and friend sent me a link for Liana Shanti's Heal Candida Now program by Health Mastery Institute. Of course, I immediately bought it, along with several of her other nutrition programs. I wasn't able to stick with them until several years later.

But what changed was that I never again looked for another diet. I knew, on some level, that everything I needed was there. I felt the truth in it.

From there, I took her health coaching course and then moved on to her spiritual programs, as she started stepping into her role of a spiritual teacher and shaman. I resonated with Liana, her writing, her teachings, her program and her truth, so I just kept going.

And I stopped searching. I don't search for new ways to make money. In fact, I barely pay attention to how much money my business brings in every month, or my monthly expenditures, for that matter. I was finally able to commit to myself, losing over 140 pounds to date, and I don't "diet" anymore.

I don't read self help books. I don't search for the latest spiritual, meditation or healing technique that promises to make me happy, successful and reduce stress and anxiety. I don't search for love outside of myself. And if I find that I'm doing that, I quickly turn back within, which is where the love I needed has lived all along.

All Liana does is love me, unconditionally. She isn't fixing me. I was never broken. She isn't saving me. I am saving myself. She doesn't tell me what to do or ask me to believe her blindly. She says, "Try it. Prove me wrong. Prove that it doesn't work."

She shines a light on all of my false beliefs. All of the ego traps I've believed my whole life. All of the mud that people piled on top of me, preventing me from seeing my light. She constantly points me back into myself, which is where all the answers lie.

She's teaching me to trust myself, my own wisdom – which is something MY MOM completely obliterated. Liana reminds me of my own perfection, allowing me to shed layer after layer of anything that makes me believe otherwise.

Why did I stop searching? Because what I found worked. Plain and simple. Miraculously, I listened to a call that came from deep within my soul, that I wasn't even aware of at the time. I knew I had found exactly what I needed. And I listened and trusted myself enough to keep going.

Anyone who knew me 7+ years ago KNOWS, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I am not the same person on any level.

Now I refer to Liana Shanti as my shaman, my guru, my teacher, my spiritual guide. Which, I know, sounds weird to many people, because we're not used to being devoted to a spiritual teacher in the US.

So when I mention Liana Shanti in every blog post, when I talk about her with my friends, I do so because there is no amount of gratitude that will ever be enough. For the work and clearing that she has done, for her courage to step into her purpose for being on the planet at this time – guiding those who hear the cry of their soul, to their true purpose.

Thank you will never be enough for the level of freedom, joy and happiness that is my current reality. I've found my way home.

By the time I was in high school, I was having r4p3 fantasies. Yeah, I know it's not cool to talk about that, but I know I'm not the only one that had them.

And I know I'm not the only one that felt like the most vile person on earth for fantasizing about that. Guilt and shame to the max.

I don't feel it's important to go into details. You know what r4p3 fantasies are. I also started watching p0rn at the end of high school, and that progressed to seeking more and more vi0lent p0rn.

It felt like a compulsion, that I couldn't stop. And I had no idea why. Why did I want to see vi0lent p0rn? Why did I fantasize about being r4p3d? I knew it wasn't normal, and it made me feel like something was wrong with me. Dirty.

My mom, Wanda Price, would always tell me I had a great childhood. Especially after I told her I had uncovered s3xu4l abus3 that happened when I was little. She blamed it on me, said I was crazy, and that I had a great childhood and was a happy child. She said it was Liana Shanti's fault, because I had been working with her as my teacher for a couple of years at that point.

But Liana wasn't the reason for my p0rn addiction or r4p3 fantasies. In fact, those STOPPED when I started healing, loving myself, uncovering more trauma, and rediscovering my connection to Jesus.

Up until I found Liana Shanti, I believed my mom. I thought I had a great childhood. But I was a miserable adult. And I was always so confused. And desperate. And hopeless. If I was such a happy kid and had such a great, love filled life – why did I cope with food, why did I have these addictions?

Now, 7+ years later, I have no coping mechanisms. I haven't thought of k1ll1ng myself since 2018. I don't have r4p3 fantasies. I don't put up with abusive treatment from men. I don't even feel the urge to watch p0rn any more. I don't cope with food. My body is mostly pain free. I have very little stress and anxiety compared to most people on the planet. Every day, I feel more and more purposeful. I actually love myself more and more every day.

Thank you will never be enough to Liana for bringing Jesus and love back into my life.

Back to all stories

If you asked me to pick one person in the entire world who epitomizes the highest character qualities possible in a human, Liana Shanti is that person. Her entire life radiates goodness, kindness, compassion, love, generosity, and integrity. Yet, she is the most humble person you have ever met. She continuously gives and helps people while wanting nothing in return, even avoiding recognition and praise.

Liana is a modern day version of Mother Teresa and the world is a better place simply because she is here. I know thousands of women, men, and children who all feel exactly as I do, whose lives are forever changed and blessed simply from Liana's work, love, care, and compassion.

I met Liana ten years ago, when I purchased one of her online nutrition programs. It cost less than $100, yet the value Liana gave was a thousand times that. She created a Facebook group to give additional support to people who had purchased her program. For months and even years afterwards, she spent many hours a day answering people's questions, sharing her expertise, and helping people in all areas of their lives. She gave a thousand times more value than the inexpensive program we had purchased, simply because she truly cared about each of us.

Liana completely changed my life and the lives of my children. When I first met her in this online community, I was a newly divorced mom with four young children. I had escaped a religious cult that suppressed and abused women and children. My kids and I were completely alone and had lost our entire family and world as we knew it.

I had been told my entire life that women were weak, that I could not support myself or my kids without a husband, and that I could never be financially successful. I was struggling to provide basic needs for myself and my children with an income around poverty level. We were living in a small apartment and receiving government assistance.

Liana took me under her wing and mentored me out of the pure kindness of her heart. For years, she spent countless hours teaching me about nutrition, life, business, and parenting. She encouraged me and showed me that I could better my life. She believed in me when no one else had ever believed in me before.

She even created a very inexpensive online health coaching school, Health Mastery Institute, so that women like me could have a way to create a new career who couldn't afford to go to college. She included her extensive business training in the program for FREE so that we could learn how to create our own financial independence.

She poured her heart and soul into this school and into me and the hundreds of other women who were in similar situations. She could have charged ten or twenty times the amount and it would have been an amazing value, yet she made it affordable for all of us.

Liana taught me so much that I was able to successfully start my own health coaching business. Within two years, I had tripled my income and was OFF government assistance. All because Liana believed in me and because of her years mentoring me, teaching me, and guiding me.

I remember being amazed that this woman was so kind and loving, and I had nothing I could give her. I remember being in awe that this successful woman would take so much time to mentor and help not only me, but hundreds of other struggling women too, just from the kindness of her heart. The small amount she charges for her programs are miniscule compared to the value she gives and are laughable compared to what she could charge for her services given her extensive education and her experience creating multiple 7 figure businesses.

She literally had nothing to gain from helping me and my kids, or any of these other women. She does it simply because that is who Liana is. She is the embodiment of love, compassion, and kindness. She cares deeply about women and children who are suffering, and she teaches women how to empower themselves, how to believe in themselves, and even gives them a way to create new careers and teaches them how to become financially independent. Hundreds and thousands of women have been able to create better lives for themselves and their children because of Liana's mentorship, love, and care.

When my oldest son was in high school, he was planning to do a short job training program after high school, because I didn't think college would be possible for our family. Liana helped me to see that college could be possible for him, and that there were ways that we could make it happen. My son ended up getting an academic scholarship to his dream school. He is thriving in college, as a first generation college student, because Liana showed us it was possible.

My second son had a horrific foot injury in a basketball game in his freshman year of high school. The doctors told him it would be a career ending injury and that he would likely never play basketball again. Liana helped me find a surgeon who could help him. She spent hours and hours helping me find the best treatment options for him. She also shared her wealth of personal experience with me on nutrition, herbs, and holistic remedies that would help him. Because of her guidance, my son went on to make a 100% full recovery.

My kids and I had a very scary domestic violence experience with my ex-husband when he came to my home and smashed my car window, shattering glass all around my children. Liana was a constant source of support and encouragement. She went out of her way to help me find resources to help my kids and I stay safe. She helped us find therapists and an attorney and connected us with domestic violence experts.

When our house burned down in the middle of the pandemic lock down, Liana and her son called every hotel in our area until they found one that was still open. They rented rooms for my children and me so that we had somewhere to sleep that night and until we could find a new home. Liana also gave me an opportunity to continue to grow my career by working for her health coaching school. An opportunity that I had never dreamed of having in my entire life.

My kids love and adore Liana too. Even though she is incredibly busy with her own life, children, family, and businesses, she always makes time for my kids. She always takes the time to respond and to help them with whatever they are going through. She is like the ultimate aunt, godmother, and real life guardian angel.

She doesn't have to do any of this. There is nothing that we could ever do to pay her back or give her in return for everything she has done for us, and she doesn't want anything in return. That's who Liana is. She lives her entire life serving and helping people because she genuinely cares and loves people and wants to make the world a better place.

I have never met someone like Liana, and I know it's because there isn't another person on the planet who is like her.

Even when I struggled and doubted myself, she was so patient, and continued to encourage me, helping me to heal from the trauma that was showing up in repeating patterns.

The thing is, I'm only one of hundreds and thousands of people that Liana has helped like this. In working at Liana's health coaching school, I hear from people every single day with similar stories to mine. Every single one of them tells me stories of how their lives have changed because of Liana's kindness, love, mentoring, and guidance. They tell me stories of her kindness and how she has helped them and their kids. They are all as equally amazed and blown away by the kindness and love she shares continuously.

I don't even know how it's possible for one person to have made such a difference in so many people's lives. I don't know how it's possible for one person to give so much love, kindness, care, and compassion to so many different people all over the world. But Liana has done that and continues to do that. That's why I truly believe that Liana is our modern day Mother Teresa.

Another thing that has always stood out about Liana is her integrity. She values integrity and authenticity more than almost anything else. She will not tolerate even an ounce of something being out of integrity personally, but also with her businesses. She has turned down numerous lucrative business offers from companies who wanted her to sell and recommend their products, but she felt it would be out of integrity to recommend products that she was making money on, so she wouldn't do it. She has refused to take shortcuts to grow her businesses and insisted on doing things only organically and in full integrity, even if it took 10 times longer to grow. She has turned down partnerships with people that she didn't feel were in full integrity. In working for her, she has taught me so much about integrity, and insisted on integrity in every aspect of how we work. She doesn't care if she loses money or business, she will never compromise her values or her integrity.

Liana has changed my life and my kids' lives forever. I am eternally grateful for her love, kindness, compassion, generosity, and mentorship. If I can be 1/1000th of the woman Liana is, I will die feeling I served my life's purpose. The world is truly a brighter, more loving place simply because Liana Shanti is here.

I want to share my eternal appreciation and gratitude for how Liana Shanti goes above and beyond for her community.

She continuously pours out endless amounts of love, energy, and time for all of us, just because she cares and loves so deeply. She shows us unconditional love and always has our back – something we have NEVER seen our own parents or families do for us.

She fiercely defends us, standing up to the most horrific toxic monsters in our lives and families, even putting herself in harm's way to do so.

She tirelessly fights for us, empowers us, and educates for FREE. Her IG stories over the last few weeks have been an entire crash course in domestic violence and narcissistic abuse. I've learned more from her recent stories than I did in YEARS of counseling.

Liana has been this way for the 10 years I've known her. It's what amazed me then and still amazes me today.

If anyone EVER says Liana does any of this for money, you clearly haven't followed Liana for even a second, or you KNOW you are lying through your teeth.

It's hilariously laughable the occasional time I've heard this from someone who has never been a student of Liana's.

Liana REFUSES to tolerate abuse of women and children. If you have a problem with this, YOU ARE AN ABUSER. She is showing us what an empowered woman looks like and leading by her example.

She collects and shares so many resources and research – and organizes it all into highlights for us, so that we have the tools we need to take next steps.

She gives us special prayers customized to each situation, upgrades her platforms to hold powerful prayer vigils to help us. Remember this wasn't just a prayer vigil, this was an hour and a half of Liana's energy work LIVE that she gave us for FREE because she cares and loves and protects women and children who are being abused.

Liana is up super late endlessly teaching us, encouraging us, guiding us in her IG stories, her podcast, in Illuminations, and in her private groups. Then she is up early praying, fighting for us, doing energy work, showing by example to not be afraid to speak out against abuse. She fearlessly puts herself on the front line for us, taking all the direct hits because of it. Not for herself, but because of her love for us and our children.

Her time – she has so many things to do, yet she is focusing countless hours on helping us deal with our shit.

Not only is she doing all of this for free, but she is SPENDING tens of thousands of dollars, even hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees dealing with our crazy families. Not to mention the harassment, defamation, death threats, rape threats she has been dealing with – ALL of this she is going through because she stood up for US, because she loves us.

She doesn't have to do any of this. None of us are paying her for this. There isn't even a monetary value that you could put on something as valuable as Liana's time and energy. It's literally priceless. This is Liana's pure heart of gold, her love for Jesus, for women, for children, for truth, and her absolute refusal to tolerate abuse or evil directed at her communities or women and children.

I, and every person in her community, KNOW we are beyond incredibly blessed to have Liana as our teacher and guide. Thank you does not seem powerful enough to express our gratitude and love for you, Liana. We love you so much.

Thank you for showing us that we no longer have to be victims of domestic violence, narcissistic abuse, or the lies from our families that kept us small. Thank you for showing us that we DESERVE and can create a life of peace, love, happiness, and abundance beyond what we ever even dreamed was possible.

Back to all stories

I wanted to share some of my healing journey and how my life has radically transformed since I found my teacher Liana Shanti back in 2016.

I came across Liana online at a time in my life when I was going through some very hard challenges. I was married to a narcissist that was physically and emotionally abusive, I was doing drugs, had been using fast food to numb my pain for years, smoking cigarettes, I had no passion for life, no purpose and felt very lost.

My mom had just divorced my step dad who was also a narcissist – the very scary, raging kind, and growing up with that kind of torment and walking on eggshells caused major PTSD and feelings of low self worth.

So when we – my mom, sister and I – found Liana, we were a mess from having just left two toxic marriages and feeling the confusion and self doubt about where to go from there.

Liana and her Lifepath Manifesting program is where I began to uncover my childhood pain and for the first time in my life, felt like I was being heard and recognized.

I was blessed to be able to have 1:1 sessions with Liana, as were my mom and sister. It has been so challenging and so eye opening to go through this process of uncovering childhood trauma alongside my mom and sister, but it's also been the most amazing gift because our relationships have transformed, become stronger, more supportive and more loving than ever.

How beautiful is that? My relationship with my mom has changed in ways that I never thought possible. Watching my mom, who was so emotionally closed off my entire childhood, begin to open up and talk about the pain and trauma we experienced was and is the greatest gift Liana has given us.

When she released her Mother Wound and Father Wound programs, shit got real and messy again, lol. I felt fear around my healing, not knowing what would be uncovered or how it was going to look with my mom, so I ran back to drugs and alcohol, running from the work. And all the while, Liana was there. She never once judged me or made me feel bad for my choices.

She loved me unconditionally, which was something I had never experienced.

She made me feel safe and loved. Even after making decisions that put me in danger, she was there for me.

These programs, along with every other program Liana offers, has changed not only my life, but the relationships I have with my family. She gave us – my mom and sister – a new way to live and be with each other. Where the relationships are REAL, supportive, loving and free.

The family environment I grew up in was toxic, abusive, oppressive, authoritarian and so damaging to my sense of self. The effects of that manifested a life where I was overweight, eating my emotions away, doing drugs, drinking, in toxic relationships, looking outside myself for love and validation, never speaking up or trusting myself.

Liana showed me a way out. A way to love myself. She showed me that I could be happy and healthy. That I didn't have to live my life in a prison. She taught me that I was worthy and whole. She showed me the power of unconditional love because she embodies it.

I have uncovered gifts and things about myself that I had no idea was there. I am a freaking health coach and it's because she believed in me and showed me I was capable. Her love and teachings have now allowed me to give back and serve others in need of guidance.

I see life through new lenses now. I no longer look outside of myself for approval or validation. I know that I have everything I need within myself. I am an empowered woman creating a life that I love and growing more everyday and it's all because of Liana and her dedication to being a teacher for anyone looking to heal themselves. I am forever grateful.

What does Liana Shanti mean to me? How has she helped me to live a better life? It's so hard to put into words just how much she means to me. From the moment I found her online I instantly knew she was what I didn't even realize I had been searching for. I had just left my ex and was feeling lost and visionless. I had been using drugs for 6 months straight – something I had never done before. It was always binges for a week or so or weekends, never every single day for 6 months.

I was in a marriage that I wasn't happy in and knew with every fiber of my being that it was something I shouldn't have done. I do understand now why I did it and I don't hold guilt for my decisions, I learned a lot about how my body is always speaking to me. My body was giving me so many clues and there were so many red flags I ignored. He was showing me all the time. Jealousy, rage outbursts, physical and emotional abuse, violence, and many incidents I knew were not okay. Leaving that relationship was something I had wanted to do for many months before I actually did it. So, why did I stay?

After finding Liana and her programs I began to heal which required me to look at my life and take responsibility for it. Looking back at my relationships and my behaviors and actions in them, it was clear that my childhood trauma and wounding, the narcissists I was surrounded by, the relationship I watched my mom in for over 20 years, all contributed to me choosing narcissists for partners over and over.

Of course I did, it's all I knew. All of my relationships were with narcissists who treated me so poorly and me constantly rationalizing their behavior away or completely blocking it out, which I did well into my 20's. My inner children could not deal with the abuse so they blocked it out. A coping mechanism I learned in childhood. I would not have been able to survive had I been aware of the sexual abuse going on by my dad and other men up until age 9. But deep down I always knew.

It's interesting because as I got into my teens, early 20's, I wanted to go see a therapist badly. I wanted to figure out why I was the way I was and how my childhood affected me. I knew my childhood was chaotic and unstable. It was filled with alcoholism, drug addictions, physical and emotional abuse, and violence in the home. The sexual abuse was uncovered later after my inner children felt safe enough to show me. After I cut contact with every toxic family member I had growing up.

So how did Liana save my life? She GAVE me a life. One with purpose, meaning and passion. A life full of happiness and health. A life surrounded by loving and supportive people. She listened to me and supported me in a way I had never known before. She didn't do the work for me, I had to do it. But she gave me the tools and gave me something much more valuable – the belief and trust in myself that it was possible.

I never went to a therapist because I found out I didn't need one. Liana taught me that I already had all the answers inside of me. All I had to do was cultivate a relationship with Jesus and clear away all the garbage that was blocking me. One of the most treasured pieces I will take away from Liana and her teachings is how empowered I've become. I grew up feeling powerless and unworthy, but now I know I am worthy and unconditional love is my birthright. Thank you Liana. I am forever grateful.

I found Liana Shanti in 2016 when I was in the end stages of a divorce and leaving my narcissistic ex husband. When I read what her Lifepath Manifesting program was all about, I knew instantly, to the depths of my soul, that I had found what I didn't even know I was looking for. I enrolled on the spot and began the journey of healing my soul.

I knew before I even found Liana that I was in a toxic relationship and I was in the process of getting myself out, but I had no idea the depth of pain and unworthiness that I carried until I started looking at my life with accountability and truth. Going through her Lifepath program was such a beautiful awakening to parts of myself that I had hidden away for so long and didn't even know was there. Her teachings are the real deal. A way for me to dig into the life I had but could never make sense of. I had always wanted to know why I was the way I was and Liana's teachings gave me that and so much more.

I grew up in an emotionally, physically, mentally and sexually abusive home. My dad and step dad were both narcissists and very toxic. Not surprisingly I ended up dating narcissists and ended up marrying one. I was disempowered, had no voice, no sense of who I was, no boundaries with myself or anyone, accepted extremely toxic treatment, walked on eggshells, had PTSD, was drinking, doing drugs and eating fast food daily to numb the pain I was in. I was not living, I was existing.

The moment I started working with Liana, my life completely changed. It was hard and challenging sometimes to look at all the pain I had buried for so long, but I would not trade it for anything in the world, because to get my life back, to be living in my own sovereignty, is something that you can't put a price on.

Liana is literally a life savior on this planet, leading people back home to themselves, empowering us in all areas of our lives, leading by example and unconditionally loving us along the way. She is someone who sees so deeply and loves everyone so much, her heart is huge and she is the most generous soul I know. She has given me so much that I didn't even know was possible. She taught me how to love myself. That right there is all that matters to me because the love I gained for myself allowed me to begin not only healing my soul, but my body as well. I feel the best I have ever felt because my body and what I put in it became a priority to me.

I no longer allow toxic, soul-sucking people in my life, I no longer stay quiet about how I feel, I have healed my body in ways I never knew was possible, I have amazing, supportive, loving people in my life, I am empowered, loving, kind, and have a zest and passion for life that I never had before. I now know that I am worthy just for existing.

And Liana is why.

I was gifted with my Akashic name earlier this year and it was such an honor. To feel more at home within myself, to finally feel like the real me is emerging, because she's always been there, she was just buried under the wounds, trauma and crap piled on. The old me, the name I was born with, does not represent who I AM anymore. I am beyond grateful and proud to be on this journey with myself, my fellow sisters and brothers and of course, Liana.

I have taken almost every single one of Liana's programs and feel extremely grateful that she offers them at the VERY discounted prices she does because they are literally priceless. Finding your true self, uncovering your pain to get to the Diamond underneath, is why we are here. And Liana? Well, she is God's gift to this Earth and the most amazing teacher who will help you find your self love, because in the end, we all want to embody self love.

It took me a while to fully embrace Liana Shanti's teachings – 7 years to be exact. I found her nutrition page back in 2013 and participated in that community for years even though I wasn't actually able to do a full cleanse. I was then extremely triggered when she started talking about Jesus since I grew up in the cult of Catholicism and then later became atheist after leaving. So, I unfollowed Liana for a few years.

I continued on a downward spiral from there. I was suffering greatly from extreme stress – emotional, physical, and financial – anxiety, depression, fear. I was bitter, exhausted, overweight and miserable. I had constant negative fearful thoughts and worst-case scenarios running through my mind all the time.

Sometimes these thoughts were absolutely debilitating and paralyzing. My constant stress manifested physically as heartburn, a tightening in my throat to the point where I had trouble swallowing, joint and bone pain, and heart palpitations. I was always frustrated and yelling at my kids. I drank alcohol to de-stress. I cared way too much about what other people thought of me. I also thought that things "just happen to you" and "you can't do anything about it."

2020 was a wake up call for me like many others. I could see the insanity so clearly and Liana was a light guiding me out of the chaos, leading me towards myself and Jesus' true teachings.

I started doing the free anxiety meditation, womb clearing, and the abundance webinar. I subscribed to Illuminations, used tools I learned from that like mantras. When I felt fear or stress, I put my hand on my heart and said: "I am safe. All is well. I have everything I need." I still do that sometimes.

I imagined a big over all my negative thoughts. I started working on Mother Wound, I was guided to leave a dangerous state, and I got rid of a lot of poverty consciousness and limiting beliefs. I also stopped eating meat and reduced my dairy consumption. All of my physical symptoms went away, and I started to cultivate peace in my life for the first time.

I did the Candida program this year and lost 25lbs, my skin is clearer, I have more energy, and my anxiety and depression is gone. I quit dairy and alcohol and coffee. I completed HMI and am working on attracting some clients. I realize that I am in control of my life. As Liana says: "I am the center of my own universe," and "I am a limitless being in a limitless universe."

Now, I don't give a fuck what anyone thinks about me. I love myself, I am way more patient and present with my kids and dogs, my relationship with my husband is deeper, I've become more independent, and my life is so much more peaceful. I recently realized my mother is a high-level narcissist and I needed to disconnect from her.

I am still working on my wound healing and don't yet feel a personal connection to Jesus, but I trust it will happen and pray to him throughout the day. I continue to remind myself, also as Liana says, that "My journey is perfect and unique." Thank you Liana for your constant love and guidance to everyone in your community.

I'm here to show my love, support, and gratitude for Liana Shanti and her programs.

I'm here to show my love, support, and gratitude for Liana Shanti and her programs. When I first encountered Liana's work in 2020:

I was in a soul-sucking job. I was going from one toxic relationship to another. I surrounded myself with toxic friends and family members who influenced every decision I made. I was drinking alcohol to numb out. I was on medications for anxiety, depression, sleep, and ADHD.

I didn't have the best childhood, which led me to self-destructing patterns in adulthood. Liana and her programs have taught me how to give myself the love and support that my inner children never received. I would like to say that she led me back to myself. But the thing is, I never knew what that was. I was living the life my family and partners wanted for me and I was miserable.

I am still a work in progress and continue to go through Liana's programs. I feel more empowered, more free to authentically be me, and the best part is that I am a much more present and loving parent to my son.

"I wasn't abused, I was sheltered and kept away from 'secular' people, but I wasn't abused."

"ABUSE"

The migraines were the worst, sometimes lasting days on end.

I was told it was "hereditary," from my grandmother, to my mother, to me.

"Abuse"

I thought I needed time away as an adult to explore my freedom. "I'm a naturally curious person, that's why I feel the need to get out and about, to always be busy and doing something. To get out of the house."

"Abuse"

I tried many things, I thought myself fearless, traveled crosscountry in my car in my 20's. Hiked alone, did dangerous sports, slept in my car in remote rest areas, became a firefighter, I wasn't afraid of dying. In fact I even thought "I wouldn't mind dying for another person, to do something heroic. To sacrifice myself."

"ABUSED"

Home wasn't comfortable, just familiar. Home was where we had holidays, and birthdays, though many times growing up, mine was "forgotten." And the familiar bullshit too: "Have you gained weight?" "Why don't you have a boyfriend yet?" "You're never home to help me." "You don't care about me."

Meanwhile, doors were slammed in my face, screamed at, ignored for days on end – twice it was for a whole week – and was always somehow my fault.

My body eventually stopped talking to me, it just SHUT DOWN.

It couldn't keep screaming louder, its voice grown hoarse.

"abuse"

My body would violently shake, trying to ineffectively release the accumulated trauma, some of the most horrific buried SO FUCKING DEEP. At first it was just a singular event. A hospital visit.

Then as I was forced to be at home, no more escaping with work, it got worse. It became daily.

My body screamed in silence at this point. My mind still unable to comprehend the "gibberish" my body was native in. But it wasn't gibberish, it was childlike, and required patience and clarity.

"abuse"

Finally, my body said "ENOUGH," and I kept dropping to the floor. PARALYSED by the stress of the environment I felt captive in, but was supposed to call "home."

In my moment of darkness, contemplating the darkest of choices.

I found a voice miraculously. Or rather serendipitously Instagram suggested her to me.

I had already questioned my upbringing at this point, religious RIDICULOUSNESS.

I believed in a god, a universal creator. But a wrathful bearded man in the sky? I think the FUCK not.

I saw the words "mother wound." My physically wounded self felt heard. "What could it hurt?"

The better question would have been "What could it help?"

She helped everything.

I had found a voice for my frustrations though it was still barely a whisper. Her voice was a balm, I felt seen in my pain and heard in my silence. The abandonment of my father, the enmeshment of my mother – I grew up more her spouse than a child. And I was told there was no one to blame.

It wasn't about finding fault with these people, so inadequate to raise a human with unconditional love. But rather to see myself, to love myself, exactly as I was.

I was told I was too quiet. Too loud. Not loud enough. Don't mumble. Don't shout.

Nothing was ever enough, unless it was something for them to brag about. And even then, I was somehow lacking. But it wasn't me who was truly lacking, it was their self hate and criticism projected on me.

"Abused"

"You were abused." These words rang in my ears, not really registering. The narcissism program I bought to heal from my father – an official narcissist according to the courts of New Mexico – but I wasn't expecting to face that term, to feel it applying to my mother.

At first it was subtle, I thought "she must not be that bad" but the twists in my stomach, the knots that I had just from 10 mins with her. I needed to get away. And soon enough it happened, though not in the way I expected, it was a final blow from her, a real punch to my gut.

"Pay more rent or get out."

Unable to drive, some days unable to walk, I found a temporary home. Which proved to be a different kind of chaos. One that pointed out to me the different ways that narcissists can present. One loud, one silent. One angry, one passive aggressively violent. Both I had to tip toe around, both I felt like a role playing scene, a side actor in their movie.

Yet, it gave me time to comprehend just how badly abused I had been.

It gave me time to clear out my body, from the inside out. Heal Candida Now, a Health Mastery program that cleared inflammation and parasites out.

I just wanted to see what it was about. "What could I lose?"

The better question, "What could I gain?"

The fog in my mind started to clear, the cleaner the food I ate. My symptoms disappearing over the weeks. What were migraines? And as the cravings would come, "I want chocolate NOW."

I could finally understand and hear what it was all truly about.

My little 3 and 5 year old selves were the first to appear, both of them crying, just wanting someone to hear. I felt their emotions, I witnessed their pain, I soothed them with love instead of sugar and chocolate. I felt how badly they had been pained.

The memories that surfaced were VIOLENT, both father and mother, separate. Neither bothering to question the other.

The last time I spoke to my mother, I asked her about these memories I had come up about my father – did she know? Would she fess up? – and the room I used to be left in alone.

"Oh yeah, I remember that room. And I had my suspicions about your father, I didn't feel comfortable with the way he'd kiss you and pin your hands to the bed."

My heart stopped. She KNEW and did NOTHING.

This was the end.

With courage, convictions and forgiveness in my heart, I left that abusive family, not blaming, not shaming. Just not taking part.

NONE of this would have happened, had I not been led by Jesus and followed my heart. My intuition.

I would not be walking this day, driving, let alone breathing. Had I not been led to Liana Shanti that day. November 21st 2020.

Liana, thank you.

Signs and symptoms are your body LOVING you.

Back to all stories

For as long as I can remember, my life has been filled with stress, worry and fear. So much fear. Fear of judgement, failure, abandonment, even fear of being too great and overshadowing others. I was raised to be a "good" kid. Not stepping on other's toes, making everyone else feel great about themselves while I played coy and learned to morph myself into the person and image everyone wanted. My internal fears along with the external positive feedback from others when I did anything "impressive" fueled my overachieving, perfectionist ways.

On the outside looking in, friends and family thought I had it all together. I was the "perfect" daughter, friend, student, classmate, coworker, partner, artist. Even I believed it when I was around others. I was "perfect" in exchange for love, validation, and acceptance. I knew if I made everyone "proud," I would feel less alone and more safe and secure in this world. When I was by myself I was an overthinker, often pondering worst case scenarios, wondering what so-and-so thought of me, worrying about my parents' health. I would spiral, often leading to mental exhaustion, depression and occasionally suicidal thoughts questioning what my purpose truly was on this Earth.

I went from self-help book to self-help book, reading, learning, implementing what I'd learn and it would help me for a few months. But after the initial novelty of the exercise or new way of thinking, I would revert back to my old tendencies of negative thought patterns, perfectionism or just feeling uncomfortable with who I was. Deep down I knew that I had abandoned my authentic, "imperfect" self long ago.

It's an incredibly empty feeling to realize you've become a shell of yourself. Of who you were meant to be. I would often feel broken, defective, unwanted, looking for anything to help bring myself back to life. To feel that childlike joy and passion for life. Genuinely. I just wanted to feel good again but on the inside.

In 2021, I was at a very weak and low point. Splitting my attention and energy, trying to be too many things to too many people. During this time was when I found Liana Shanti "randomly" on Instagram. I put the quotes around 'randomly' because nothing is random. I read a few of her posts and something deep within me resonated with her. I could tell she spoke truth like no one I had ever come across. There was no agenda, no ego. There were barely even photos of her and no videos. All audio. I was so intrigued. Despite her posts triggering me and my ego at times, I stayed on her page. The more I listened and read, the more resonance I felt within my body. This is how you know there is Truth there.

At the time, 2 things in particular triggered me: her stance on tarot cards and whenever she mentioned Jesus. Tarot at the time gave me a false sense of security that I was "on the right path." I soon realized how dark and deceptive tarot is – astral plane interference from entities and demonic sources – and stopped immediately after finding Liana. The divine does not need to communicate with you through cards or any instruments for that matter. True guidance is received within as you heal.

I was also triggered because she mentioned Jesus. When anyone mentioned Jesus to me prior, I would roll my eyes. I had a connection to the universe that I could feel and resonated with being "spiritual." But to include Jesus in that felt like religion and I had grown so weary of religion. It took me many months to go from mainly asking for guidance from my higher self and guides to asking Jesus directly and meaning it. It also took life experience, synchronicities and FEELING His unconditional love and powerful protection to realize, ok, Jesus is actually real and He is looking after me and has been my whole life even when I didn't realize or "believe" in Him. That realization alone brought tears to my eyes. Still does. He is different than the Jesus of religion. He is a fierce protector and warrior of light who is unconditionally loving, timely and brings Truth to the surface always.

Since finding Liana and more of her teachings, I've watched as my own Lifeproof has unfolded.

Life feels and is so much more beautiful. Even during long, tiring days I'm able to find gratitude, love, peace and joy that eluded me before.

Liana, finding you has been the miracle of my life.

There are no words. Truly.

What do you say to someone who led you back to Jesus against all odds?

Who uses their personal time here on Earth, when time is finite and she doesn't have to do ANY of this, to teach and guide others to heal their wounds and genuinely love themselves?

Thank you.

With every cell in my body, thank you.

I've worn a mask I wasn't fully conscious of before you. Now I'm learning how to take it off lovingly piece by piece.

Back to all stories

My life was not my own. I was literally suffocating from the expectations, projections and stories that were programmed into me. There's no way to put it lightly – the truth is that I was slowly dying from inauthenticity and suppressed trauma.

What I didn't understand is that everything I created, my entire existence, was built on those wounds. The wounds that I couldn't even see. In turn, my body and my life was diseased.

BUT I was desperate for a way out.

A way out of a life where I abused my body and constantly numbed out because I couldn't stand myself. It was too painful to sit with me. Unbearable, yet the disconnection was destroying me.

Before I met Liana, I thought that I was defective, a complete fuck up because of the messes I had made. Yes, I hurt people. I did a lot of things wrong, but it was the only way that I knew.

The dysfunction was ingrained in me and I perpetuated it just like I perpetuated the abuse I experienced as a child. I became my own perpetrator until the little voice inside said "ENOUGH."

The whisper turned to screams and I prayed to GOD for guidance, for a way out of what I was living. That's when I found Liana. Well, some distractions came first.

But the first time I talked to Liana I knew she was the REAL DEAL. The second time I talked to her, I knew that doing the work in her programs and working with her one on one was the answer I had been seeking pretty much my entire life.

Within 8 months I had eliminated all toxic relationships, partnerships and substances that would stand in the way of me freeing myself. For the first time EVER, I felt hopeful that a different existence was possible.

Now, almost 5 years later, EVERYTHING about my life has changed. My body has healed because I've learned to love myself. I mean TRULY love myself, and it's reflected in my outer world and my relationships.

Liana Shanti is the divine model of unconditional love. She has been from the start. The only real example of this that I've experienced.

Everything about her, her life is her teachings, and she has provided an amazing roadmap that has helped to usher peace into my existence.

For the first time ever I am at peace. I AM FREE. It honestly brings me to tears typing this out because I can't imagine where I'd be without her.

I've reconnected with JESUS, and myself on a level that I didn't know was possible. It's truly such a blessing, and I will forever be grateful to her for what she's taught me.

And for the love she's shown me, even in the midst of my darkest days. She's been a TRUE teacher, friend and example in this life. I'm so glad she exists.

Back to all stories

I was putting other people's needs before my own and was suffering with PTSD, depression and extreme anxiety.

One thing you cannot dispute is Life-proof. When I first started working with Liana Shanti in 2018, I was on a big drawer full of medications, obese, in unhealthy relationships, and financially and emotionally dependent on other people. I was putting other people's needs before my own and was suffering with PTSD, depression and extreme anxiety. I was smoking 2-3 packs of cigarettes a day, drinking every night, and smoking pot.

I was not happy, had no idea how to change, what changes to make, or even that some of the changes were possible. Saying Liana Shanti and her programs changed my life is an understatement, but is also putting her under fire from some extremely dark people. So, let's talk about what that statement means. It means that she is the most compassionate, kind, and unconditionally loving person I have ever met or heard of.

Liana Shanti guides, teaches, provides the tools, and empowers people to heal, which makes it possible to change. Liana gave me the tools I needed to heal my body, mind, and spirit, and I continue to heal. Liana does not tell you what to do, even when you ask. She empowers you to grow, heal, and trust yourself to make decisions. To see that you are good enough just as you are. Unhealthy people don't usually like it when others start making healthy choices, disrupt the status quo, start saying no, end people pleasing patterns, and step out of cycles of abuse. But as people heal, grow, and become empowered, that is what happens.

My life looks nothing like what it did in 2018 and all the years prior. I left my domestic partnership, ended many unhealthy relationships, have become financially and emotionally independent, have healed my body enough to stop all but one medication and I will be leaving the last behind soon. I no longer suffer from PTSD, depression, or debilitating anxiety. I no longer smoke, drink, or use drugs. I have lost weight and eat clean and healthy plant based foods. I am able to set boundaries, say no, and meet my own needs. I am on the brink of expanding my business and my financial success even further. I have more peace in my life than ever before. What I have is a lot of life-proof and there is no way to dispute the truth that I am living every day.

I had been praying for someone to be my teacher after I had a bad experience at a new age seminar. I left the seminar feeling contradicted. This woman disempowered a woman that day and that didn't align for me.

And about two months later I came across Liana Shanti's Instagram page. Wow, so interesting, she is talking about things I never even heard of – mother wound, father wound, narcissistic healing and Ho'oponopono.

See, I had always felt stuck and blocked and she had an answer to these feelings I was feeling. I would ask her questions and she would give me actual answers, my feelings were not dismissed, I wasn't told it's my imagination, and this gave me such hope.

I started listening to Illuminations and was amazed at her knowledge and the love she exudes. Thank you Liana for sharing you with the world.

Then I started Mother Wound and Father Wound. Each program is a six week program and I was like, ok, I will heal each wound within six weeks, and I can go on with my life. The work is continuous and the healing is liberating, to say the least. I suffered from severe and paralyzing anxiety for most of my life. I had always wanted to quit drinking alcohol and eat healthy.

There were people in my life that would give me anxiety that I didn't want in my life. I had bosses that would be rude to me and I would brush it off. I didn't show my kids unconditional love. I never thought I would be a business owner.

Anyway, this all changed and is changing as I have started healing my wounds. I am not drinking alcohol anymore and I'm not in any mommy-and-me wine category. I don't look forward to wine at the end of the day. Not drinking alcohol helped my anxiety too.

With Liana's teachings I gained the courage to let go of relationships that drained me and were toxic. For years I had relationships that I was unhappy with and I became empowered by her programs and stopped the relationships I was not happy in. And one of the most important relationships that I am working on are the relationships with my children.

My inner children and my actual children. I always felt I love my kids, but did I love them unconditionally? Did I love myself unconditionally? I had not looked at love in the way she was talking about. What? I don't know how to love unconditionally? I am still working on this part and the outcome of each try, each realization, is heart wrenching and blissful. And each of her teachings ties in with my anxiety issues, and being able to handle my anxiety by myself is a huge gift for me.

This healing work is not easy for me, there is a lot of shadow work involved and it's very uncomfortable for me. The work is worth it and the results are life changing for the better. Thank you Liana for providing the teachings that have got me to this point.

I am working on my business endeavor and I know pretty soon I will be a business owner and be my own boss.

Thank you for teaching me to realize my worth, realize how capable I am, guide me to connect with Jesus, unconditionally love myself and my children, and this list goes on. I am thankful with all my heart.

I literally was dying when I found Liana Shanti's RawganicVegan page and the 66 Day Health Mastery Institute program almost a decade ago. I had microscopic colitis and suffered from IBS my whole life, among many other diseases.

I am now off all medications, healed all of my diseases, including Type 2 Diabetes and anxiety. I quit a soul-sucking job and started my own business, my passion, in 2020, opened my own brick and mortar this year and have more financial abundance because I was empowered to follow my passion.

2020 was an amazing year for my family.

I am in a mental and emotional place now that I never knew existed before I found Liana. She has taught me and thousands of men and women all around the world what functional, unconditionally loving families are supposed to be.

Thank you, Liana.

I have been writing this testimonial for 3 years. From the first Illuminations I listened to, the moment I read the call in the description for Lemurian Mystery School and just KNEW it was for me, that pivotal moment when I heard Liana Shanti say in Mother Wound that setting a boundary is an act of unconditional self-love, the day I cleared an old pain pattern attached to my left lung and my twin sister and felt completely "me" for the first time, to those days realizing that abuse had me living outside my own body and, after begging my sweet spirit to stay in my body for days and days, she finally did.

I was writing this testimony as I cleared candida and PTSD and with every parasite and heavy metal toxin expelled. I am writing it every time I stand face to face with my own childhood fears and traumas, when I quit smoking weed and tobacco, and when I faced the darkness that is the family court system.

I was writing it when I walked away from toxic family members and when I signed my name on my divorce decree. I was writing it when I found myself alone in a tiny empty apartment, wrapped in the arms of the Divine and free. I write this testimony with every prayer to Jesus. I write this testimony in the ever-more-loving relationship I have with my inner children and my actual children. I write it in my children's joy. I write it in my own joy.

Liana Shanti tells her students over and over again that nobody can save you but you. And though she may argue with me, I will say that she indeed saved my life a thousand times in this lifetime alone.

The thing about a truly great teacher though, is that she saves you by arming you with everything you need to stand in your own sovereignty. A great teacher teaches you to depend on yourself.

I am a healthier woman because of these teachings. I am a more loving mother. I am so much more in touch with my true divine gifts. I have more joy, more love, more excitement about my work here in this life. I know, without a doubt, that these teachings are Soul Work and that the evolution of my soul is my true purpose here.

I have changed for the better in so many vast and healing ways that I write this testimony with each new day of my life. Each new day that I am here to be love, to be a light in the darkness of this planet, to be a warrior for my own soul, I am writing this testimony of how Liana Shanti saved my life.

I feel like this is a bit of a coming out. I feel very vulnerable, apprehensive, but I also feel it is extremely important to be authentic. No guilt, no shame, shining light on the shadow so nothing can hide in the darkness. Deep breath. Here we go.

I was a narcissist. Control, lies and manipulation was my game. It was a real game too, I had so many lies and stories going at once, with family, friends, work, it was exhausting to manage so I didn't get caught in the lies I had spun.

Why did I lie? It was my coping mechanism from growing up in an abusive home. Physical abuse, drugs, alcohol, fear, shame, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, walking on eggshells always.

Both of my parents are narcs too, they raised me to be like I was, while violently punishing me for being like that. I changed who I was to fit into their mold, to stay safe. I was the good girl, their golden child compared to my brother, the trouble maker.

Terrified of getting in trouble because the punishment was severe. A smack in the face, multiple whacks across the ass with a belt, held down and forced to drink liquid soap, or locked in my room.

I suffered from nightly stomachaches since I was a small child which continued into adulthood, had migraines for years. As a child I would speak in public about very inappropriate sexual things because of my exposure to sexual abuse.

And when that happened, I was "popped" in the mouth or physically punished both in public or when we got home. Because I had little control over my own bodily autonomy, I often took out that frustration and anger on the family pets.

I got married and had a child, and a lot of the same cycles continued. I did what I was taught to do, until I learned better.

I found my teacher, Liana Shanti, in 2013 through her RawganicVegan page, when my daughter chose to go vegetarian. I wanted to support her the best I could. I soon followed in my daughter's footsteps.

That's when I really started learning, healing, changing. My decision to go vegan was the first wedge in the marriage and over the following 3 years, things just got worse. I started controlling and arguing less, and he started trying to control and argue more. 2016 was also the year I started remembering a lot of the major abuse I suffered but my parents were in complete denial.

My life completely changed in what seemed within 24 hours. Liana empowered me with making my own decisions, she never advised me to do or not do something. She always advised to make the decision myself, which I based on what felt right for me and my daughter. So I cut contact with my entire family, divorced my husband and started living life for myself and my daughter. The abuse from my ex got a lot worse, with extreme emotional and financial abuse added to the list. Staying with him would have just perpetuated the abuse cycles as well as the abuse me and my daughter were receiving.

None of them were easy decisions, they were absolutely terrifying actually. But that's what happens when you are so enmeshed with your parents and husband, I couldn't tell where they ended and where I started. I completely lost the essence of who I was, who I am. My own life, my fire within, my wants, my needs, my heart's desires. I was a shell of myself, I felt dead on the inside and the need to control was my motivation every minute of every day.

Healing as a narc has seemed almost impossible at times, especially when Liana often says that narcs never heal. They are too caught up in their lies, false webs, and projecting their shit onto others, they extremely rarely look within. My words. I feel even more grateful knowing I was a narc that has done a lot of healing and I have a lot more to go. But if it was not for Liana, and my accidental landing on her vegan page all those years ago, I cringe as I reflect on how life could have been.

A life without Jesus, extreme self hate, judgemental as hell, anger and rage spilling out all over unexpectedly, using people for my own benefit, lying about everything, having zero compassion and empathy, controlling everyone and everything around me, feeling like a victim in life and blaming everyone else for my problems, extreme entitlement.

All things I have healed completely or am currently healing. My life is completely different. I no longer suffer from nightly stomachaches, no more migraines, no more control, no more anger outbursts, no more manipulation. My life is peaceful, I am happy and I am learning to believe in myself, trust myself, and trust Jesus.

Liana is my teacher, my mentor, she leads by example. Never tells us what to do, always leads us back to ourselves – as frustrating as that is sometimes. We all deserve unconditional love, and I thank Liana from the bottom of my heart for showing me what that really is.

I didn't know how to function in the world as an adult.

At 29 years old, I had given birth to 7 kids, seen 2 marriages through to the end, been to college for 7+ years, and ticked off all the little boxes I needed to accomplish to look like a "proper adult."

I was also enrolled in long term therapy, since about 5 years old, on and off. I had taken a dozen different drugs for my various diagnosed mental health issues, and I drank regularly. Like a fish. Every weekend like clockwork. It was the only time I felt like I had fun.

I have notes saved in my phone, jotting down my anguish in bits and pieces over the years, never quite able to place the root of my turmoil but knowing in my bones that something just wasn't right.

I didn't feel like an adult. I felt like a little girl, sometimes a baby, lost, adrift at sea and barely hanging onto the side of the boat. Most of the time I felt like I was just drowning slowly.

I couldn't regulate my emotions whatsoever. I would swing from feeling accomplished and "happy" when I succeeded in a work goal or posted something funny on social media, to sad and lonely when my husband didn't know how to give me the attention I needed, to angry and short tempered when my kids acted like kids and I didn't know how to handle it.

For a moment I dipped into the New Age movement, focusing on tarot and pendulums and spirit readings. I was desperately searching for something bigger than myself. Someone to tell me what to do. I knew I needed help, but wasn't really sure where to look.

Liana Shanti came up in my Instagram feed at some point. I'm still not sure exactly when or how, or what the first thing I saw was. But I thank God for that day. I followed her and her stories kept popping up on my feed. So I watched. Eventually I screenshotted. And to be honest I thankfully got a little bit of fomo when people would share stories of healing their Mother Wound and Father Wound.

I started with her program Healing from Narcissistic Relationships. I gobbled it up. Suddenly a light was shone on my entire childhood. I felt seen and heard for the first time in my life. Next was Mother Wound. That one ripped me open. My abandonment wound had kept me from ever feeling safe or secure. I was a constant victim.

This year has been the first time I have been able to FULLY connect with my kids without feeling over stimulated or guilty. I've been able to face my fears head on and call them out, knowing that I have the strength and the ability to protect myself from them and banish them once and for all.

Next came Father Wound and the realization that I had been a victim of emotional abuse my entire life. No wonder I couldn't function.

I learned how to speak more kindly to myself and show patience and grace. What a huge change in my life.

I have done nearly all of Liana's programs now, and I continue to circle back to them as the layers fall more open. I have never felt more secure and grounded in my life. For the first time, I feel like I have a foundation to stand on, and it's so empowering to know that I hold that space within myself. I'm not looking to anyone on the outside to provide it for me.

I feel like an adult instead of a little kid wandering through life, afraid of everything. I can't even put into words how much that means to me. There were times I felt like I would die soon from the anxiety and the results of my self hatred.

I am so grateful that I found Liana, and that she led me back to trusting Jesus. Without that trust, which my parents never modeled for me so I didn't have it within myself, I was never going to be able to succeed in life or find any true happiness. I never felt like I deserved it or could achieve it. I would have always fulfilled that belief that I was a victim and a failure. I have finally opened my eyes to the fact that I am worthy, and that is the greatest gift that you could ever give someone. Words can't even describe how priceless it is that Liana has made these programs for us.

I found Liana Shanti in the midst of the craziness in 2020.

I found Liana Shanti in the midst of the craziness in 2020. I had my spiritual awakening a few years before and began what I thought was my healing path. Although I believe I genuinely had awakened to my true nature as a soul, I had no proper guidance and was swept away by the new age.

Reading and following all these other teachers left me so lost and confused. Life was unfulfilling, I was trying to deal with the consequences of childhood trauma, and getting sicker and sicker every day.

I was gathering all this knowledge, with no empowerment and practical ways to implement the teachings. I then found Liana and for the first time, I felt validated for all the things I felt about myself and the world.

Since the very first program I did, Mother Wound, I knew that she was it. Although it was incredibly difficult to face my stuff, by implementing her teachings I was able to get my health back on track, gain a sense of empowerment and have love for myself that I never had before and finally experience actual life proof.

It can be difficult for people to understand how all these changes could be beneficial for a person, it is hard to see when you are stuck in your own shit. But I have never felt freer, more peaceful, and like my life has hope. Like I can do anything.

There is nothing worse than feeling stuck and I am forever grateful to Liana for being willing to bring the teachings of unconditional love to those who wish to learn, to free themselves from pain and wounding, and to find their true selves.

I think words will never be enough to thank Liana for all she is and does for us. I will never forget the day I've come across her IG. I was so lost, but so eager to find truth. The minute I've found her I knew, and I stopped searching. There's life before Liana and after Liana. Or should I say, there was never true life before Liana, only surviving and pain.

I spent my whole life numbing myself to not feel the huge intense pain I carried, the pain of hating myself, the pain of being ashamed of myself, the pain of feeling worthless, the pain of feeling I was a lost cause. Then I've found Liana. She was a breath of fresh air in my suffocating world, she gave me real hope for the first time. I had no idea I was tolerating so much pain, abuse. I didn't know the extent of my trauma and self abuse. To be honest, I had no idea what abuse really was. Liana doesn't change lives, she gives us life, because until finding her, I wasn't living, I was painfully and slowly dying.

Everything around me was sucking the life out of me – alcohol, some people, some ex partners, casual sex, narcs, food, parasites, crappy behaviors, tarot, "energy work," seeking so much validation and approval, my self loathing thoughts, my traumas. EVERYTHING.

I stopped drinking, cut people off, got stronger on my boundaries. I don't have interest in the things that used to hurt me little by little in the past and numbed me. I am learning how to love myself, am healing my relationship with food, and I've never felt so empowered in my whole life. I learned to be more compassionate to myself WHILE holding myself accountable. I love Jesus, like really love him and I love loving him.

I'm no longer interested in abusive or crappy relationships at all. I still have a lot to heal and change, but this life, this intense healing life that many times puts us on our knees, is always going to be a million times better than the fake, numbing, slow, painful death I was going through.

Something I've realized recently was that I've always been terrified of becoming a mom, because deep down I was afraid to harm my kids the way I was harmed. And I don't have this fear anymore, because now I know what love really looks and feels like, because of Liana.

Because she never EVER stops giving, she never stops showing up, she never stops caring, she never stops loving, she never stops protecting us, she never judges us, she never EVER stops teaching us, not even for one day. Only people that never really let her in for one sec can talk shitty about her, they don't know and will never know what real love is.

Once we let her in, it is impossible to not be transformed by her love. Our souls know, our souls can never not love her and be eternally grateful for how far she goes to help us go back to Jesus. Thank you, Liana, from the bottom of my heart for not only introducing me to life, but for teaching me that I deserve to live a life I didn't know, a life full of Jesus, full of unconditional love.

Because of YOU. Only because of you. If it wasn't for you, I don't even want to think where I would be right now. I might not even be here. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Liana, a million times and for ALL eternity, I love you.

My story feels so small compared to others, but it might resonate with other young women who just feel like something is "off" in their life no matter what they do.

When I found Liana Shanti's Instagram page, my soul immediately jumped and said "YES."

When I joined the FB community, I was following suit of my sister who had just joined. Looking back, I realize I was living a life of total bypassing and just wanted a man to take care of me. To be the provider and protector. To give me everything that I was lacking within myself.

But I also had this intense drive to create a successful business, to manifest huge wealth. I wanted to prove myself. That I was worthy.

But I kept hitting a brick wall. Every relationship would blow up and end. Every job was mediocre and I couldn't find my own role within my own company.

It wasn't until I purchased Lifepath that everything started to shift. I started to see how I unknowingly gave away my power.

Liana's Lifepath program accelerated my healing. She saved me from being one of those "spiritual girls" who just kinda stumbles through life, never truly reaching her highest potential. Her teachings are a path that transforms girls into sovereign women.

And this is just the beginning for me.

When I found Liana Shanti in 2020, I was struggling greatly. I had spent years trying to recover from a psychiatric diagnosis that brought my world crashing down. I was lost in my work and career, with no clear direction. And I didn't realize just how much I was suffering within my marriage and other relationships. I didn't have much hope for the future, and my health was not significantly improving.

I've been in her groups for a little over two years now. Her qualities of unconditional love, patience, generosity, intelligence, humility, and fierce feminine power amaze me. Her programs, guidance, and encouragement empowered me to make major changes in my life last year – which included getting a divorce, making a career change, and moving away on my own.

I truly would not have been able to do those things, which have put me on my true lifepath and on a much better future trajectory, had it not been for her. Today I am an HMI health coach, and that part of my path is to help women through autoimmune and post-traumatic stress conditions.

Liana has given me hope and enthusiasm for the future, provided so many tools and solid education to prepare me for my path, and I'm so excited to live out my authentic gifts and talents as my path continues to emerge.

I'm so incredibly grateful for Liana providing her gifts to the world, and to be a part of the light that she brings. Her work has changed my life, and I know will continue to do so for the rest of it.

My name is Chelsea and I'm sharing this to communicate what it has been like to be a student of Liana Shanti.

Hi. My name is Chelsea and I'm sharing this to communicate what it has been like to be a student of Liana Shanti.

I found Liana on Instagram at the end of 2020. I had reached a place in my life where I had realized everything I had worked incredibly hard for – I had a very cute apartment in the art district of Denver, a loving partner, and a job as a Denver Public School teacher. When I was in my early 20s and pushing myself to work full time waiting tables while also full time in school, this is what I visualized.

Those were my goals. I cannot tell you the amount of weekends that I worked over 30 hours on my feet in three days, only to head to a full week of school at the end. Anyways, I had realized my young adult aspirations and instead of feeling fulfilled, joyful, or any semblance of peace, I felt numb.

I felt depressed. Anxious. Suicidal. Rage. I smoked weed everyday all day to get by, drank heavily on the weekends, lived for my breaks from my regularly scheduled life, I watched porn for sexual release, in my fits of rage I would destroy furniture and myself. So I started searching for peace. I thought to myself, this can't be my life. There has to be more.

Before I found Liana's programs I tried talk therapy, couples therapy, EMDR, reiki, medicinal mushrooms, and none of it helped me to find peace. To find joy in life. Finally I found Liana on Instagram. She would share posts that sounded so matter of fact and harsh. I would have to reflect on it for a while and always, yes, I would realize I agreed.

The first program I did was Mother Wound. It cost me around $300 and it included 6 sessions. That's $50 a session. This does not include the recorded live calls full of other people's experiences, questions, and answers as they went through the program. That is substantially less than the $120 a session I paid for weekly talk and EMDR therapy. After completing Mother Wound my rage was gone. It was incredible to me and my husband. We were amazed. I felt lighter. I had started to find that peace.

Then enter Father Wound. I completed most of that program and it has been incredible as well but I believe the timing was off for me. That program I set aside before finishing. Then enter Candida Cleanse. I started that cleanse January 2022. The first week includes a juice fast, I had never done one before. During that week of juice I realized I would never consume weed or alcohol again. Before Candida Cleanse I thought I was just a little lazy of a person. After Candida Cleanse I learned that was just chronic fatigue.

During Candida Cleanse I decided to also do Lifepath Manifesting. Another incredibly healing program. Lifepath has given me tools that I will use for the rest of my life.

In short, before Liana, I had a job I hated, smoked weed everyday all day, drank until drunk, rage, anxiety, depression, low feelings of self worth. Now? That is all GONE. I have found Jesus. My husband has found Jesus. I have found my heart. I am finding my voice. I continue to do the work so that my life every day will be one of joy, peace, and love. So that I can raise my future children with unconditionally loving parents. So that I can embody the fullest of the person I was sent here to be.

That is what Liana's programs have done for me. Most of her programs have the first session for free. I highly suggest you check them out. Thank you for reading.

When I began Liana Shanti's work I was at the tail end of a decade of suicidal thoughts, depression, anxiety, and alcohol and drug dependence that had begun in high school. As a teenager I thought, "when I achieve X, Y, Z my life will be peaceful." Well, at 27 I had achieved X, Y, Z and I was still depressed, anxious, suicidal at times, and relied on alcohol and drugs. I started looking for peace. I tried talk therapy, EMDR, medicinal mushrooms at the suggestion of my therapist, sound healing, reiki, and none of it moved the needle for me. I still felt awful inside despite having my career as an elementary school teacher, my wonderful partner, and a beautiful home.

Then enter Liana Shanti's work. After doing several of her programs including ones from Health Mastery Institute, I have healed from everything listed above AND THEN SOME. I have a relationship with Jesus. I quit my job as an elementary school teacher and am now growing my own business.

I have not touched weed or alcohol since December 2021.

2022 was the first sober year of my adult life. Why was that so? Why did I rely on alcohol and drugs to get by? It is because I grew up in a home where both of my parents were emotionally and physically abusive. Through Liana's energy healing programs and then through HMI programs I have healed a significant amount of the trauma and wounding that I experienced as a child.

In 2022 I started talking to both my parents about what they did. My mom? She would yell, cry, tell me not to talk about it, she would hang up on me. My dad? Sometimes he would laugh, he would say "I hope some of what we did right gets through," or say "I didn't know that was happening."

In my childhood screaming was common, being left alone was common, being hit was common. I can remember being slammed against the wall by my throat and being held there while my mother, Troylee Ribbink, got within a few inches of my face to say "One hit. One hit and you would be on the floor."

I was born into a family that believes in Alcoholics Anonymous. My family believes that you're either born an addict or you are not.

I am here to say that is absolutely wrong. Addictions come from a need to numb out from trauma. That is what I was doing. I was traumatized as a child and through Liana's programs I learned that I was traumatized in the first place and how to heal from it.

2023 is the second sober year of my adult life and I can tell you that my life is better than it has ever been. I cannot and will not imagine what my life would have been if I did not find Liana Shanti. I have an amazing relationship with my husband, a new career that I love, a beautiful home, and a relationship with Jesus. I spend each day in peace.

How can I put into words what Liana Shanti has done for me? I can't really, but I'm going to try.

She gave me HOPE. She gave me FAITH. She gave me STRENGTH.

She helped me love myself and others. She helped me see that I am worthy and deserve love and happiness. She helped me realize that I am not broken, only wounded, and wounds can be healed.

She has helped me change my health and heart. She has taught me how to be accountable for my life but also to forgive myself and become better. She has taught me how to ask Jesus into my life and heart every waking moment of the day. She has TAUGHT me how to love and follow Jesus.

She has led by example and been unconditionally loving every single step of the way. She is kindness, grace, intelligence, strength, compassion and patience but most of all she IS LOVE. I am forever changed by her and her teachings. My soul will be eternally grateful.

Before I found my spiritual teacher, Liana Shanti, I often went from one extreme to the other. I was overworking, had difficulties slowing down, or thought I needed a lot of time to restore.

I was diving deep into emotions so I had difficulties regulating them, or was too distant.

I would worry a lot about situations, or ignore the problem and hope it would resolve itself.

I was just looking at others' needs and forgetting mine, or as a consequence I thought I just have to focus on myself to have boundaries.

Before Liana's teachings, I had situations where I couldn't find solutions with other programs.

Now with Liana's teachings, I am learning to incorporate balance in all areas of my life and see solutions in different areas.

In my fondest memory of how my journey began, it was a little rocky.

Hi, my name is Daniel Michael Berlongieri Jr. In my fondest memory of how my journey began, it was a little rocky. I wasn't fully equipped to understand how to handle certain beliefs or how to deal with rational or irrational behaviors.

My wife had found Liana's page and started to change her life and beliefs little by little. She had been incorporating everything she could in our household. As in notes around the house and being more health involved. I had given her programs a shot a couple of times but what I didn't want to get through my head was how wounded I actually was.

How big of a wall I built to protect my feelings, and I tried to never feel emotion. I would hit a rev line, as if you could compare it to punching the gas in a car to the red area for RPMs. I would just flip out because I would get bottled up so much that it would come in a flurry. I had even said, which I completely know now has never been the truth, that this community is a cult. That phrase is a scare tactic to not want to look into what you have inside of yourself.

The way I see myself that I have changed since meeting Liana is:

- I'm more open about my emotions - I can catch my ego trying to make my decisions - Showing more love to my family - I'm actually putting the work into being the best me - I have taken control of my life. I always looked to make others happy and put my own on the line. - Standing up for what I believe in - Took out people that were dragging me down in life

Well, now I've been on my journey for a good 3 years solid, and when I say that, it is that I have finally surrendered myself to Jesus and have 100% used Liana's programs as an educational experience of my own life. I know I'm not fully healed but the thing that keeps me going is I'm always working on being the best me I can be.

In my school of life, I have had many teachers. I have been seeking the truth about life for over a decade. I have read numerous books, watched a ton of videos, signed up for many programs to help me know who I am and why I am here.

I had brain surgery in 2008 and something about me changed after that. I started to look at everything differently, quite literally and figuratively.

I became more aware of how I eat, sleep, walk, breathe, basically everything about me which I never paid any attention to before. That is what started this healing journey for me. I learned a ton from all the teachers over the years but there was always some void that I was seeking to fill.

Last year, my wife, who has also been on this journey with me for many years, found a teacher, Liana Shanti, through IG and started following her. She signed up for her Illuminations program where she learned about the energies of each week and month, and how to navigate through them swiftly.

I have always been very diligent in researching and using my brain, per se, as to what is right and wrong. I never jump into programs or have teachers without looking into them with a microscope because I know there are so many out there teaching things without any knowledge or merit. I remember my wife telling me about Jesus, and I was immediately turned off. This is because I felt that it was associated with religion, something that I disconnected from over the last decade after many experiences life had presented to me. It was later that I found out that Liana's teachings are far from any religious dogma and talk about the REAL Jesus – the one who is unconditional love. Not the one pushed by religions around the world.

Within a couple of months of Liana's teachings, I started noticing major changes in my wife. She had been sick from a debilitating disease for years and suddenly, she was feeling better. She was happier and in less pain. This showed me the lifeproof of these teachings and I wanted to be a part of it. This was the real deal. I remember messaging Liana and asking her which program of hers I should start with as she has many different ones.

She guided me to Lifepath Manifestation. That program recommendation within itself was my answer to what I had been seeking for so many years. It guided me to my higher self and showed me a path in life which I could have never imagined. Once I did that, I started to heal my core wounds by doing her Mother Wound, Father Wound and Narc Healing programs. These teachings brought me to a place of inner peace and love.

Then I joined Health Mastery Institute which taught me that diseases are the result of suppressed childhood wounding and trauma. I learned that any disease can be healed without any doctors or medicines, using the proper foods, supplements and health plans. I was seeing all this playing out in real life as my wife healed herself from her futile illness, and as my own mental and physical health began thriving.

Currently I am attending her 12D B School, which is a business school like no other, and I have gone to university and college studying business. I didn't learn anything nearly close to what I learned within just the first class of 12D B School itself, despite studying business for 6+ years prior.

Needless to say, Liana Shanti has changed my life in every way. I have seen and felt such a profound change in me within just a year of following her teachings than I did in the past 10 years of me seeking.

I am deeply grateful for her unconditional love and support, and I cannot thank her enough for helping me open my eyes and see this highest version of myself.

The first time I heard someone explain to me that my mom is a narcissistic psychopath was from a psychiatrist, who worked with my life coach, trying to help me understand why I was not happy with my very comfortable life when I was the "Jones that everyone was keeping up with."

It was a label so foreign to me that I, with every fiber in my body, resisted accepting, because how could I? Nothing my mother did was "out of the ordinary" in terms of being a mother. Extreme? Yes. Wrong? Of course NOT.

My Chinese culture and family heritage along with the patriarchy in the schools I have attended both here in the US and in Asia have instilled into me my frame of reference to believe:

- Parents can do no wrong regardless of what they do to the child, per Confucius – everything is justified and acceptable, and I do mean EVERYTHING. - Physical and emotional violence from a parent to a child is a manifestation of deep love and care and is necessary. - If parents had academic and professional goals for you, then it is what you need to attain to the exclusion of everything else in life regardless of what you wanted. - Failure was not an option, and you don't want to find out the hard way what that option leads to. - You are told what to do. Authoritarianism runs in the culture, the government, the family and in schools. - You never bring shame to the family. You took care of things quietly without a fuss. - If you are a boy, you are protected and can get away with murder. But as a girl, you are lucky if you get to live and your job is to find a husband and bear kids.

Five years prior to finding Liana Shanti during the Covid lockdown, I was already well aware that an overhaul in life needed to be made. For starters, I had been praying to Jesus to help me stop perpetuating whatever I was conditioned to believe and do, and to break free from the toxic ways of living, since the day my child was born.

During those 5 years, I had the urgency that something in me needed to drastically change and fast because by then I had already alienated a half-sister I had raised, cheated on my ex-husband, and my kid wanted to kill me. All of this while I was still suffering from the autoimmune diseases that were results from years of emotional abuse and self-sabotage to health. It was even a miracle that I had my child after many miscarriages and 2 abortions earlier in my life, all to keep the shame under wraps.

All throughout life, I had searched for answers, and no amount of self-help books, psychiatrists, psychologists, or positive intentions worked in releasing the anger I had built up inside me but was unaware of. Sure, things worked out well in my life as they continue to be. But in hindsight, I was the only obstacle standing in my own way. I thought I was strong and independent and could will things to happen. What I didn't realize was that "my way of doing things" was unnecessary and even detrimental in preventing me from getting what I want and in the most efficient ways.

I felt like a dog chasing its own tail until one day I stumbled upon Liana's work and programs. Everything she wrote made sense to me. It helped me look within to find the answers I was looking for. I have never met Liana. In fact, she is a very busy woman, so busy that she doesn't have time to chat, solicit or even hold 1-on-1 sessions. She's busy advocating for the protection of abused women and children. But the great thing about her program was that you didn't need her to answer questions. It was all very self-explanatory and you just had to do the exercises and heal on your own.

When I first started her programs, I expected hand-holding and wanted my questions to be answered. In fact, the way she explained sovereignty and unconditional love was so foreign to me that it triggered me, thinking why isn't she telling me what to do?

As for the emotional abuse and memories of my childhood, these were like movies playing in my mind, and I remember them as if it were yesterday. I see myself very clearly in the memories replaying. There was no way it could've been implanted into my mind by anyone. You don't forget the memories you have. You just choose to bury them along with the pain you went through when you first experienced them.

So when the psychiatrist told me that my mother is a narcissistic psychopath, I thought back to the time where, because my mother is so toxic, my doctors prescribed and demanded that I NOT contact her while I was pregnant for fear of losing the child. This is not about blame on my mother, my heritage, culture, traditions or my father. This is me loving myself enough to be willing to look at what made me who I was and understand the root of the problem and to take accountability where needed. After all, if you don't know what is wrong and how it happened, how could you even begin to hypothesize what needs to be changed in you.

Liana's teachings were a knowing so familiar, as much of what she wrote and taught were things that I already knew. What I lacked and was seeking were programs with frameworks that were effective. As a scientist by training, I looked at actions and life proofs. She had all of that. Her programs were logical, sound and very easy to follow. It was hard work to look within and be able to see how you were conditioned to believe things. But that was also because your parents and the environment you grew up in also experienced the same conditioning they and the previous generations experienced.

Liana's powerful programs in Mother Wound, Father Wound, Healing from Narcissism, Lifepath Manifesting, Health Mastery Institute health programs, health electives and her weekly Illuminations, among many other programs she offers, have made a tremendous difference in my life that don't even compare to everything else I've tried. You never once had to engage with Liana if you didn't want to. In fact, many who did her work did not have access to her. You do the work of healing yourself. No one can do it for you just like no one can take the blame if you stole candy. Much like any course in school, how you apply what you learned in class to your everyday life is up to you.

Just like no professor, Nobel Prize winner or not, can tell you what to do with your life, Liana does not tell you what to do as well. We saw life proof in her life that we also want, so naturally, you follow what she does. What person doesn't want to look young, be healthy, be wealthy, get along with family members that are loving and supportive, is smart and educated and knows what she wants? I broke free from the chains of the traditional beliefs of not speaking up, of not listening to your body's intuitive responses, of being the bigger person when someone violates my boundaries, of doing whatever it takes to make your parents look good and happy even if it's at the cost of your own sanity, health and happiness – in other words, be a people pleaser – and that you're not of much value if you're a female as only males can carry on the family name.

Today, I am happy to say that my kid and I have a great relationship, and I am able to truly hear what he has to say and protect him at all cost, physically, mentally, emotionally and financially. That is all that matters to me. Thanks to Liana's programs, I have made tremendous progress in healing and have released the shame and guilt I've had for a long time. As for my ex-husband and I, I have owned up to my mistakes and apologized for it and can see, objectively, how and where things went wrong. While we are no longer together, we actually have a much stronger commitment to our child and get along way better than before. I know everything happens for a reason, and God has shown me that. I am a child of God, and Jesus has always been there for me.

I just lost that trust while growing up because of all the experiences I've had.

I'm grateful that I have been given the chance to truly work on my wounds and heal, to see that Jesus is the only way, and that the Divine helps those who help themselves as each of us need to do the healing work. No one can save or heal me, but Liana's guidance through her own actions and her programs have shown me how to do that for myself. We are forever grateful to Liana Shanti, her guidance, teachings and unconditional love and support as I face my shadows, do the healing work and experience newfound joy that we never thought was possible. Thank you Liana – I am your student for life.

It was early 2020 and I was filled with fear. I remember laying on the bed crying out to God begging him to show me the way. I was in despair, no hope. I was in pain, physically, mentally and spiritually. I was basically bed bound and living off 10 to 20 ibuprofen a day. No exaggeration.

My whole world had been rocked. I had woken up to the abuse I had endured as a child, that I had been in a religious cult, and I was trying to go plant based. I was trying to heal so desperately but I didn't know how.

I was at a point that I didn't want to keep going on like this.

I told God that I couldn't keep living in this fear, that it was eating me alive and that I didn't want to keep living. I remember crying myself to sleep that night and the next morning I woke up and I had no fear.

It was like it had been lifted and the fog of fear was gone. Just a few weeks later I found my teacher, Liana Shanti. That's when EVERYTHING changed. I knew the moment I found her she was teaching what I had been searching for my whole life.

The true teaching of Jesus.

I joined her community and started doing her Mother Wound and Father Wound course and then started studying at Health Mastery Institute, her plant based nutrition school. I finally had found the tools I needed to heal myself. I finally had hope for the future. I started to make healthy boundaries, I started walking again, I gave up ibuprofen completely.

I started to finally love myself for real.

Don't get me wrong, I have days that are super hard because healing isn't easy, it's hard, really fucking hard, but now I have an inner knowing and peace because I have Jesus and the tools I need to heal.

Healing isn't linear and I will continue healing for the rest of my life but I'm seeing the changes, or as Liana always says, the LIFEPROOF. Thank you so much for everything Liana. I love you.

Back to all stories

I never entertained the idea of digging into my past to examine how I grew up until I heard others' stories of struggle, sadness, loss, and trauma.

I never entertained the idea of digging into my past to examine how I grew up until I heard others' stories of struggle, sadness, loss, and trauma. After returning to that shiny corporate boardroom after my first maternity leave, I looked around and wondered, "What the hell am I doing here?"

I had a deep knowing that I was meant for more – but what?

This led me where most lost souls find themselves, to the self-development section of the bookstore. I read a lot and quickly discovered similar themes in popular books. The bestsellers all had the most dramatic tales of trauma. Horrific stories that would be just as jarring on the big screen. One book after the next, people were experiencing the lowest of lows and then taking the reader on a journey to complete transformation.

Their stories weren't my stories. I couldn't relate at all.

I don't need to get into the details of these specific stories, but the hook in all of them was that they'd all been through some terrible and dark things that no one should have to go through – sexual abuse, rape, anger, and fear. Even as I'd gather with new friends, I'd find the ones who appeared to have their shit the most together were the ones who'd fall apart in record speed after two chardonnays. Triggered by something that came up in conversation, one would start to shed tears, and friends on all sides of the table would rush to soothe her. And then, one by one, they'd all empathize – "Me too," "I get it," "I've been there."

Each time I heard their stories, I thought, wow, that's terrible. I can't even imagine. And then I'd sit there with a stupid look on my face, listening as best I could, nodding along, and letting them know I saw them, saying what felt like the right things to say, like, "That must have been so hard," and "I can't imagine," and "I'm so sorry that happened to you."

Even in online groups, I always knew which emoji to drop into the comments – green hearts for healing energy, prayer hands to send prayers, red hearts for love.

I believed I didn't have anything important to say, so I'd sit quiet. A lot.

My life story didn't come with these chapters. I couldn't say "me too" without lying. I felt like I was different, sheltered perhaps, and highly privileged.

My stories were boring and not dramatic enough compared with theirs. And somehow, because I grew up in middle-class Toronto suburbia, I believed my stories weren't powerful enough, so I'd sit quiet. A lot.

Even when I started doing breakthrough work and hypnosis to dive deeper into these stories, it brought up even more awkward questions.

Who am I to tell these stories?

Do I recognize my privilege only after someone reminds me of it?

Who even cares?

Do I have anything important to say?

I'd later learn that these are the inner critic voices that darkness uses to keep us stuck, small, and especially quiet.

I distinctly remember family events where relatives would comment on how quiet I was. Sometimes they'd tell me that I was sitting so still that I looked like a statue. Being invisible was safer, no one could criticize me this way.

Speak when you're spoken to.

Only say something when you have something nice to say.

Speak to adults with respect.

You need to say whatever you need to make people like you.

Speaking up and even speaking, in general, was challenging for me. Even today, I much prefer the comfort of a notebook to work out how I feel about something, to know what I think before opening my mouth.

Early in my management consulting career, I'd have to speak a lot. I'd be nervous and would sometimes stumble over my words. Especially when I feared I had made a mistake or would be called out for doing something wrong. I had to do enough big presentations to overcome those fears relatively quickly. I was speaking on my company's behalf for the most part. I was sharing their truth, not mine.

Then it came time to share my truths. One of the very first blogs I published when I had a plant-based food blog was about how I took my then 16-month-old son off of dairy to avoid an unnecessary tonsillectomy. It worked. And in publishing that first piece, I worried about offending people – all those who did have their tonsils cut out of their throats, those who still drank cow's milk.

Most of these fears were unfounded. No one would actually say shitty things.

Occasionally, I'd write something that was triggering to someone. Like when a relative didn't like a blog post suggesting that men in corporate drop their ties – it was like putting a bow on their ego. This relative only commented on my writing to tell me I was too harsh. And she was offended because her husband had to wear a tie to work. There will always be Karens who don't like what you have to say.

YOU'RE NOT WRITING FOR THE CRITICS – YOU'RE WRITING FOR YOUR FANS.

I'm glad these events didn't stop me from writing. My writing will always offend someone. And my writing isn't for everyone. It's for the people who need to read it.

Wealthy, happy, and successful people will never criticize you. The only people who will spew their negativity at you are those who are jealous, unhappy, and miserable.

My throat chakra seemed to be open for writing, but for speaking sometimes, I wasn't there yet.

A few short years ago, I'd be on Zoom calls with clients or in a group, and someone would say something that didn't sit well with me. I had something to say. First, I'd notice my heart rate rise. Then, I'd become acutely aware of my neck. It would be so stiff that I was worried about moving it out of fear that it would creak so loud that everyone on the call would hear it. It wasn't a trigger. I often had a truth to share – a knowing, a personal experience, something that was mine to share.

I'd often mute myself and stretch my neck from side to side, relieving the pressure. That worked in the moment, but I wouldn't speak up later either. I wasn't actually doing the work to heal, so I left much unsaid. I had truths to share, and I wasn't sharing them.

I was keeping my stories to myself. Keeping them locked deep inside where no one could hear them.

While deep in revisions of Unfussy Life, while that inner voice still whispered in my ear, "no one wants to read your stories," I had a dream that jolted me awake. My heart pounding, I looked around the room to make sure I was still alive.

In the dream, I was attempting to speak. Except the words didn't come. I opened my mouth – and nothing. Now, I've had plenty of dreams about losing teeth and walking into school without pants, more than I care to admit, but the no-voice thing, this was new.

I remember opening my mouth, and when the words wouldn't come, I'd grasp my throat, eyes wide in horror. I couldn't speak. At that moment, I realized that not speaking up meant death.

BY NOT SPEAKING, I WAS DYING.

Next, I started sinking into bed and through the second floor, into death, where I'd cease to exist. When I woke up, I saw my husband in bed and realized it was all a dream. Phew.

I recommitted to finishing the book and self-published it a few months later.

THROAT CHAKRA – FULL ACTIVATION IN PROGRESS.

The only thing that would eventually stop the creaky neck? Beginning the real healing work.

It was late 2020, and a business connection was sharing the insights behind what was really going on in the world. When I read her posts, I felt a deep knowing that it was truth. Everything clicked, it just made sense. She shared Liana Shanti's work, which led me down an even deeper healing path.

She's a teacher's teacher and all-around spiritual and business badass. I admire the unshakeable, completely grounded way in which she shares truth like no other. She shared in one of our recent conversations how many people have blocked throat chakras, so their writing isn't great. This kind of writing you read and sense as controlled, stifled, and forced. Not the type of intuitive writing I teach.

In 2021, I joined her community and signed up for some of her programs. The first, Lifepath Manifesting. Holy shit, was I in for an eye-opening. I had been glossing over and bypassing in so many areas of my life. When you start doing real healing work, previously buried experiences bubble up to the surface to be healed.

I uncovered pretty quickly that I, in fact, did experience a terrible event at the hand of someone who was supposed to love and protect me. That's a story for another book, and I've got to finish the second one first.

When I was digging into my past while writing Unfussy Life, the truth started to emerge. And later, when I started going deeper into healing, the truth became clear. I also worked privately with a breakthrough coach around this time to work on rewriting old beliefs, creating supportive habits for myself, and growing my business.

Healing is ongoing. I'm not finished. This is lifelong work, which is also why so many quit or don't even start. I've healed a lot of shit and still have work to do. By finally speaking up whenever the urge struck, I started healing my throat chakra. I also threw out my oracle cards, stopped consulting reiki and tarot practitioners, and focused on nurturing my health even more. I'd been on and off vegan since 2010.

It's opening up deeper layers in my writing, too, that I didn't sense there before. I can still feel it all unfolding, and while I tend to want to rush the process, I know I need to surrender and trust.

Now, my neck doesn't creak when I have something to say. My throat is open when it's time to speak. I might feel fear, but I say what I need to say anyway.

And bit by bit, the more we speak, write, and share our truths, we clear ourselves.

Speaking up when I'm called has opened up so much more for me. I feel clear, more creative, and even more like myself. Completely congruent and aligned.

Back to all stories

Liana's unconditional love, programs, faith, and love of Jesus, that emanates Jesus's light in all that she touches, is something I feel privileged to be a part of in any form or fashion. During a challenging season of my life I was introduced to her Mother Wound and Father Wound programs, as well as the weekly Illuminations forecasts which talked about planetary alignment, energy of the earth, and the people and things going on in the world.

All of which I found very interesting. I love to learn, and working with kids with special needs, you learn a lot about the way the moon cycles affect sensory kids and really people in general. I felt like I was learning more and more with every program and recording. Learning about myself, learning how to help the kids I saw on a professional basis, learning how I could help my own children, learning what boundaries were, and learning how to love myself again, hopefully not to make the same cyclical familial mistakes, as we all want better for our kids.

Liana emphasized learning through love, and not pain, which I think of often. Her teachings brought me closer to Jesus, even though I had started talking to him more frequently years before, but in more of a pleading way to help me find a solution or a path to this troubled season with my life, my marriage, my kids, my family. I think he answered me by leading me to Liana's programs through introducing me to Kaia.

I had no idea how much I would love her and be forever grateful for her introduction and guidance. The layers of increased self-esteem and loving myself enough to do HMI nutrition certification helped me learn how to truly nourish my body and teach my children how to stay healthy. The Mother Wound and Father Wound courses are amazing. They should be required for independence in the world like a driver's license.

I learned from them many things that helped me professionally and personally by teaching me about the four roles of a parent that are so vital in knowing what is unconditional love. Knowing the four roles of a parent being to nurture, to protect, to empower and to initiate. Learning about these four parental roles allowed me to look deeply at where they were not fully present in my life, and in turn not fully present in my children's life.

Learning about each one has helped strengthen my relationship with my daughters a hundredfold. Is there still a lot of layers of work to be done on myself? Hands down, yes. But knowing how to work at stopping a generational problem in your family line, I feel like it's priceless, and I appreciate all of Liana's hard work, her family's support of her time and sharing all of these teachings with us, as it has done nothing but made my life better and more empowering of myself and my forward direction to a healthier me. My gratitude is endless.

Back to all stories

There is no lack of content or stories when it comes to the deepest gratitude I have for Liana Shanti. When I hold someone very near and dear to my heart, it is often not something I shout from the rooftops. The wounding from my childhood meant that saying what was true, what was most sacred and important to me, whatever I deeply valued, must be kept secret, like so many other secrets me and my siblings had to hold on to.

That is all changing because of the healing work I've done with Liana's programs and because of her loving guidance and community. I share vulnerably, more than I ever have now, because of the abuse she's been enduring from a group of criminals who have raped and molested, kidnapped and psychologically tortured, who have abused their spouses and children, and now, because she has helped those of us who have endured horrible abuse, most at their hands, she has become their target. I cannot sit idly by without sharing publicly what her life's work and endless advocacy for healing and personal freedom have done for me.

As I've been piecing back together the fabric of my life, it has been through Liana's teachings that I've been able to truly observe the traumas I've experienced, how they affected me, my children, and my family. I've been able to be introspective in ways that have helped me step out of ego and into a truly humble and honest healing space. I love and honor myself deeply for the first time in my life. I'm learning what healthy boundaries are and how to use them, I've nourished my entire being physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually for the very first time, all at once. I'm in the best health I've ever been in. I've accepted radical responsibility for my life in ways I used to shy away from due to denial, shame, fear, and guilt associated with making choices that weren't in my highest good. I'm the most honest and authentic I've ever been and that means more intense, too, which is highly palpable to those around me.

I never knew fully healing from trauma was possible. I thought it was going to be a nasty scar I lived with for the rest of my life, a tender spot that still gives you pain every now and then. But no, I'm seeing others heal. I'm seeing myself heal and now have the most hope I've ever had.

I'm dropping dead toxic weight, I'm healthifying my life when it comes to the people in it, healing the ways of living and parenting that needed major improvement, and I'm settling a bit more into remembering that home is within me. I'm peeling the layers of trauma bit by bit with her work, that is totally done on my own timing. There's nothing forceful. No "musts" or "mustn'ts." No rules or suffocating expectations. It's all my process, my life path, and my choices.

Finding this work after spending so many thousands of dollars in therapy has been an oasis of healing and health after "trying everything" and still feeling as if I was spinning my wheels.

As an abuse survivor it was very important for me to get out of survival mode. I realized I had been living in that trauma response most of my life. My nervous system has calmed down, my life has drastically improved, and my days are becoming more and more beautiful, more and more deeply connected. My anxiety is less and less triggered and totally manageable with breathing techniques I learned from her.

You see, it's not always the big things I've learned from her that mean so much, although they mean a whole lot. It's the fact that I'm functioning and able to thrive on a daily basis that has been my biggest win yet.

My goal in this healing work was never about a "quick fix." It was about authentic healing that would change patterns and break cycles. That's no small feat. And while I'm actively choosing it, my loving teacher is there as a very brightly lit guidepost, anchored and stable, cheering me and tens of thousands of others on as we go. The best part: I get to decide each and every day. I wake up happy knowing that my choosing this is a far cry from the days of dread I would wake up with when I was living in oppressive abuse.

To say that my life has improved or gotten better is quite the understatement. What price can you put on your own freedom and liberty to walk this earth without fear, feeling whole, happy and in your own power and sovereignty? There is none. There is no price you can put on that kind of life. When you look around, is that the life you see the majority of people living? Wouldn't it be beautiful if they were and had a way to heal? They do. And so do you.

This is merely a fraction of what Liana, and her work, have done for my life. I am forever grateful and changed.

Liana Shanti reacquainted me with my inherent worthiness and it gave me my life and soul back. I used to starve myself because I didn't feel I was worthy of food. It was a mix of trying to lose weight, eating disorder, depression and my own self loathing.

Working with Liana's programs I could uncover, deep down, that I inherently felt so unworthy. Not being the good daughter. Not being the perfect friend. Not being the perfect student.

Just failing in every area of my life. The more I tried the more I sunk in the marsh. There was no way out. It was suffocating, I couldn't keep my head up. I used to hit myself and find new ways to self harm which were subtle enough that they don't alarm anyone but felt like enough punishment for my existence.

I felt sorry I was born, sorry for my parents that they had a child like me who just could never measure up to their expectations, felt sorry that people had to witness the awkward, clumsy me.

I only ate when I was about to faint. Because I didn't want my fainting to be an inconvenience to anyone. I wanted to be invisible, and deep down I felt invisible too. An existence of weird paradox.

Liana, her presence, her work. Every conversation with her chipped away my self loathing bit by bit. Her powerful programs brought me back to life. To see myself as someone worthy. To see my body or soul is not a burden and a lifetime to prove my worthiness was not my baggage to carry anymore because I am always loved by the divine. No conditions. I don't need to earn the reason for my existence.

I tried for years trying not to die, but putting myself in situations that almost killed me. Even when I wanted to abandon myself. Liana's light held my hand and carried me through. Only presence. Only unconditional love. Something so foreign I couldn't wrap my head around.

No one believed in me like Liana does. No one stayed except Liana's love and teachings which led me back home to Jesus.

Liana does not save anyone but did unlock something in me, that I could be a responsible parent for my inner children, and for that I would always be eternally grateful to Liana. In a unique way, her love rescues us from our own self loathing. I am still learning what love is, but love Liana.

I had been doing drugs all my life, since I was 12, and I was 56 when I stopped forever.

My healing journey started in 2016. At that time I was still addicted to drugs. I had been doing drugs all my life, since I was 12, and I was 56 when I stopped forever. I had just left my high level narc husband in 2015. When I first started this journey I had no idea that we, humans, even had inner children. Now 7 years later, after doing the healing work with my teacher, Liana Shanti, my life is radically different.

I quit drugs completely. I have an intimate relationship with Jesus. I have a relationship with my inner children. I am learning how to take care of my physical body through her HMI program. All her programs have done nothing but help me to look deep within myself and to actually start loving me. I have never had as much confidence and love for myself than now.

All Liana's guidance has always been focused on me looking within me. I trust myself more today than ever before. She teaches sovereignty and that is something that is priceless to me. I have never been told what to do. The tools are provided and it is up to me to use them or not. By doing the healing work I am more comfortable in my skin and much more calm. This is ongoing work and I am completely dedicated to me and I know that I am worth it. This is all due to Liana's unfailing love and guidance. My soul would be lost, and I mean that literally, if not for her and her programs.

Liana Shanti's work helped me to free myself from a lifetime of guilt and shame.

Liana Shanti's work helped me to free myself from a lifetime of guilt and shame.

As I began to heal my physical body I was able to access emotions that were being suppressed. I was socially drinking, eating meat and dairy products, consuming coffee daily, and reaching for desserts like ice cream every evening.

I felt guilt around each of those actions. My body just knew none of those things were self-loving. But how could I truly love myself? There was something gnawing at me deep inside. I wasn't addressing the root of my pain.

I began to feel the pain I was masking after juicing and changing my diet. I saw the truth of my life and the people in it. I felt the shame. As I dove into that feeling I found the root: my childhood abuse. I pieced together my memories and things I knew for my whole life but never understood. A picture came together of the truth. It shook me to the core but I was relieved to finally understand what my body was trying to show me for decades.

Through Liana's health and spiritual courses I was able to support myself as I dealt with the truth and began my walk to true healing. I felt more empowered than I ever have in my life.

Today, I live a life free of the guilt and shame of the past. I love myself enough to make healthier choices every day. My creative spark has been reignited in my business and I've been an even better mother for my children. I'm present in every moment with a strong connection to Jesus and belief in my ability to be of service in this world.

It's honestly hard for me to begin drafting this post without crying. Liana Shanti's impact on my life goes right to the depths of my soul.

She has been under aggressive attack from darkness lately, and her other students and I are rising up to stand up for her and share the truth about her infinite light.

Liana first began impacting me significantly by piercing my New Age illusions.

I'd been drawn into the concepts that all of humanity would ascend, that I was with my "twin flame," that all is perfect and love and light on what is actually a prison planet.

I ended up putting a couple New Agey comments on her Instagram back in 2019. I was very steeped in this sense that heaven on Earth would truly become a reality. News flash: it won't.

I was a devoted Kundalini Yoga teacher and regularly attended ecstatic dances and Oneness Blessing events in Buffalo, and had begun to notice how every New Age community I was part of had some way of gaslighting abuse survivors or glossing over the danger of malignant narcissists, allowing them into these community spaces, lacking strong boundaries, in the name of "love and light."

I think the fact that I could see through the facade of the New Age, at least somewhat, made me receptive to the uncomfortable truths Liana was dishing up.

I dropped Kundalini Yoga early in 2021, and it then became clear that my partner at the time was on a very different trajectory than me.

Everything Liana was sharing was indicating that I would need to release her as well.

I resisted hard, and finally I initiated the break-up and dove into Liana's guidance wholeheartedly, joining her private community shortly thereafter.

The greatest gift Liana has given me, among many gifts, is the courage to disconnect from my abusive mom.

I'd known my mom had sexually abused me for my whole life, and her emotional abuse was an ongoing poison until just a few years ago.

But I could never disconnect, even though I sometimes wanted to so desperately.

The New Age teachings I was receiving highlighted forgiveness, giving up the victim story, seeing our parents' pain, but left out the crucial component of eliminating toxicity and parasitic energy and having actual boundaries, championing our inner children.

With Liana's encouragement and focus on truth, I disconnected from my mom with a short email and spent a year living 20 minutes away from her and not once reestablishing contact, and feeling very little guilt about cutting off contact, when guilt had been heavy for me in regards to my mom for years.

That's because Liana was teaching me how to connect with, heal, and unconditionally love my inner children, and I could no longer betray them by exposing them to toxicity.

It has been a powerful shift that has extended to so many parts of my life.

Liana's guidance emboldened me to leave my hometown of Buffalo for good and embark on a completely new journey of healing and expansion.

She has helped me turn inward, away from my codependent patterns, and to see the depths of my shadow but also my light, and has helped me know that anything can be healed.

Her energy is like the sensuous, wild ocean and a warm, effervescent sparkly pink hug, and a fierce jaguar, and a wise snake. She is brilliant in everything from quantum physics to business expansion. And the depth of her unconditional love and commitment to service knows no bounds.

Amidst the turbulence of the past couple years, during which so much has crumbled, Liana has remained steadfast, sovereign, and strong, teaching her students to be the same.

Words cannot express the value, light, and love she brings to everything she does, and it is an immense blessing to be on this path of healing and returning to myself with her as my teacher.

I love you, Liana. And the narcs can suck it.

When I was led to Liana in January 2021, I was in a terrible state physically, mentally and spiritually.

When I was led to Liana in January 2021, I was in a terrible state physically, mentally and spiritually. I had just broken up with my boyfriend and was devastated that the person I loved the most in my life had betrayed me, lied to me, manipulated and gaslighted me.

My life was a shambles, I was a shell of myself, I weighed only 38 kg and could no longer sleep, not even with sleeping pills, and if I was able to sleep for an hour or two I had horrible nightmares. All I wanted was to leave this planet. On Instagram I found Liana – thank you Jesus – and her posts resonated deeply with me. I felt inside me that she is real, authentic and unconditionally loving.

So I listened to the first free session of Healing from Narcissistic Relationships and I fell asleep after only four minutes and I had no nightmares. During that time, I sometimes did the sessions four times a day and I was getting better every day. My mother was so excited and happy to see the effect this work and healing had on me that she started the Mother Wound program.

Liana's programs have changed my life on all levels. For the first time in my life, self-love is no longer just a nice word for me. I love myself, I love my body, I can set boundaries and have manifested my dream apartment. I deepen the relationship with my inner children and also the relationship with my mother and my brother has changed.

My health has improved and I feel absolutely great. No more alcohol, no more weed, no more numbing out. I'm so grateful to be alive, to heal, to create and to have all these amazing tools Liana gave me. I am deeply grateful for Liana and the light she brings into the world. THANK YOU LIANA.

It's tough to say where your life would be if it wasn't as it was, but I believe many of us, as students of Liana Shanti, can confidently say it would be dark.

I likely would have continued to believe that my body was how I earned love and acceptance. I wouldn't have known that I don't have to earn love, or that the pattern of using my body to feel loved was because of sexual abuse by many men from the age of 18 months on, and I definitely wouldn't have understood why I felt so alone and rejected when I was single. It had been the only way I'd been shown attention until I wasn't, and that pain of rejection would have continued to poison me. I definitely would have never questioned why I drank so much weekly or smoked so much weed. Or why I took over the counter medications daily. Or why I continually faked orgasms, because I would never have understood the deep dissociation I went through as a young child, to the point where I'm still working to retune my relationship with my body entirely.

I probably would have always believed that 20 years of anxiety was from that time I pooped my pants in grade 7, and never made the connection to years of sexual abuse by a father, grandfather, uncle, babysitter, school teacher, etc, that were shoved down and repressed, being the true root of panic attacks.

The debilitating fear of it "happening again" was never about that 7th grade experience. It was about a little girl who had no protection, no way out, no control, NO voice. I would have continued to believe the story that I just had a "bad gag reflex" as a child, not a PTSD symptom from sexual abuse. And a big one? I may never have come to know my narcissistic ways and continued to hurt people in my life by projecting the lack of worth and value onto everyone around me. I could have lived an ego centered life that caused pain for others as a way of masking my own and hiding behind a fake façade of fashion, lashes and sexuality.

Maybe I wouldn't have understood that the internal attacks on my body were actually toxic energy stores from painful experiences that destroyed my gallbladder, to the point of removal, and created autoimmune diseases, years of painful periods, womb aches, and other digestive issues.

Regardless of those maybes, I am here. Healing. Feeling. Purging. I am here protecting myself. I am here nurturing that little girl within me to repair the severed connection with her worth and value. I am HERE and I have a voice. And a purpose.

I will no longer keep the secrets of my abusers. It is not mine to carry.

How does one go from suffocating anxiety to freedom? How does one heal years of suffering and pain, and find joy, abundance, worth and purpose? How does one begin to find courage and strength to say no more, and choose their soul?

Why on the healing path is it "required" to get divorced and to cut out family and long time friends?

Well, first off, nothing is required on the healing path. Everyone's journey is completely unique. But for myself, as I went further down the healing path and started to change the patterns and beliefs I have been living for lifetimes, it became critical to cut out those who were not fully supporting me.

And as a wounded person, not doing the healing work yourself, no matter how hard you try, it is really hard to fully support someone else on a true healing path. The frequency gap gets larger and larger and they project onto you.

Not to mention, everyone I chose to no longer contribute my energy toward had an addiction of some sort. An addiction I once had and have worked on, or am working on, healing. When you are trying to heal your own addiction it is best to avoid those situations where you may get tempted back into it.

Take drinking alcohol as an example. If you are a recovering alcoholic you generally stay away from bars and parties and people drinking alcohol, at least for a period of time, if not forever.

Well, this is the same on the healing path. I was healing myself of food addiction, drama addiction, gossiping, low self worth, comparing myself to others, addiction to being the victim, yelling at my children, not loving myself, manipulating others, striving for attention and recognition, people pleasing.

So every person I "cut out" of my life or withdrew from did one or more of these things that I was trying to heal within myself. So I now choose to surround myself with people who are also consciously working on these things within themselves.

It is not that I think I am better than anyone else. But for me to be the best version of myself and mother I can be, which is very important to me, removing myself from the low frequency energy and toxicity was a must.

Staying connected to these people brought toxic food into my life that I had worked hard on removing. Brought toxic energy, toxic talk, toxic thoughts and drama. I easily got sucked in with my weak boundaries. I want to say this was due to lack of love for myself but I am also realizing it is so much more than that.

It is the conditioning. These things were normal, something that had always been there, something that was just a part of life. WRONG. None of this is normal or healthy, no matter how much one justifies it. Now that I have stepped away and am fully removed from it, it is starting to become much more clear how toxic these seemingly normal things actually are. And the destruction they cause in happiness, in abundance, and in life.

My teacher, Liana Shanti, does not tell her students to cut people out of their life. Absolutely not. She teaches students to love themselves enough to have strong boundaries and to protect themselves from the people holding them back from fully embodying their healing path and their connection to Jesus.

Thank you Jesus. Thank you Liana for following your gifts to give me the teachings to be able to find my way back to Jesus and to find inner peace.

It's taken me ages to find the words to share my healing journey. I had already disconnected from my dysfunctional family decades before I found Liana Shanti. So that part was done. What wasn't done was truly seeing and dealing with the wounds my parents had caused.

While there was no physical abuse, there was definitely abandonment, neglect and a total lack of anything that resembled parenting other than discipline when my mom saw fit. She was the rule maker, the disciplinarian, she called the shots. My dad was useless and lazy and unpredictable. He never laid a hand on me though, it was my mom's job to do the spanking, and now saying that I see that it contradicts what I said about physical abuse, which I will admit didn't happen often, that I can remember.

I was on constant eggshells with my dad. Sometimes he was funny and chatty, other times he'd flip out and tell me to shut up and leave him alone, especially when I asked the slew of "annoying" questions kids ask. I learned to avoid him and wait for him to initiate conversation.

No one gave a shit if I came or left or what I did really. I had the regular curfew stuff and got grounded for dumb things, considering a lot of the things most would consider dangerous and reckless my mom actually let me do. No one dictated to me who to date, how to dress, who to hang out with or what to do with my life. I was free to do as I pleased in that regard. They literally didn't care. But with that came no support. No encouragement. No guidance. Literally nothing. It was like living in my own bubble having only my most basic needs met, like food and shelter.

It was a void with the odd disciplinary action. No guidance, no love, not much of anything. But I did know I was not planned nor wanted by either of my parents. That was no secret. It left a lot of wounding. When I picture my childhood, I see a little girl, sitting alone surrounded by a void, doing her own thing.

I started drinking and smoking weed pretty young. I think the first time I got drunk I was maybe 13. It became regular after that. Then I found weed which was more on again off again. Both were an attempt to escape my reality.

Starting at a pretty young age I made many of my own choices that pissed my parents off. I mean I had to, no one else was doing it. They were never out of rebellion but out of my desire to do what I felt was best for me. I left a day camp at 6 or 7 years old because I didn't like it there and walked all the way home. My mom was not impressed. At 15 I unenrolled myself from my high school because the school itself and the teachers were awful. I was going to fail and no one cared. They told me to work harder. I walked myself up to the inner city high school and enrolled myself. My parents were PISSED. I told them it was that or I'm dropping out and I didn't want to drop out. I ended up graduating early with honors and scholarships. That was a huge EFF YOU to them and a huge win for me, knowing I could trust my heart and by following it, I had made the right choice, for ME, not them.

The deep core wounding left me cold. Untrusting. Guarded. Empty. I left home young for obvious reasons. My parting words to them were "you guys are a mess, I'm becoming a mess and I don't know who I am. I need to figure that out away from you. I don't want to be like either of you." I did everything on my own. I traveled alone. I moved all over the place alone. I spent a lot of time alone, the same as I did as a child and teen. The one thing I didn't do at that point was put up with shit. At all. From anyone. I was not afraid to be alone so it was easy.

At 20, I met the man I was going to marry. A literal angel on this earth. I now know he was the only person I had experienced unconditional love from at that point and it bust me wide open. He loved me no matter what. He chose me every single day. But God had other plans and took him from this world and from me. He was only 28. I was fucking destroyed and had no one to turn to for the support I needed. A ton of awful shit happened after his death, but that's a story in itself. I spiraled. Completely. Wounds fucking galore surfaced. I started sleeping around about a year or so after his death. I was dying for someone to care. To listen. DYING for the love I now knew existed but no longer had. For the love that HE showed me. Before him I never gave a shit. I had no idea what I was missing. I didn't know what love was. Until I met him.

As I got older, the wounds got worse. I became really desperate to not be alone. I just wanted so badly to share my life with someone. I dated a few jerks, however I never stayed long, I always knew I deserved better, so I'd leave. And then I got to a point where I just wanted to be alone and heal. About a year into really looking at myself I was nudged back in Liana's direction. I had followed her for years. I had quit drinking completely about 5 years before starting my healing journey and had quit weed cold turkey about a year prior. I had purged A LOT of people from my life already but my emotional issues caused by my wounding had me in a deep dark hole of depression, self loathing and a desperation to feel something other than apathy and pain. That's ALL I felt. I hadn't felt actual happiness in years, other than fleeting moments. It got to the point that I believed that apathy being my default setting was normal. I felt little to nothing for the most part. I was numb.

So I dove into Liana's programs and the healing work and it radically shifted my life. I found my voice and I spoke with my mom about all the shit she did, or more accurately, didn't do. She didn't gaslight me, she didn't even make excuses. All she did was pause for a while and say "you're right, I made a lot of mistakes." We now have a bit of a relationship. My dad has been out of my life for years now and that's not a relationship I have any desire to repair. He's a selfish asshole.

I completely cut out junk food and processed food, my obsession and addiction to working out transformed into a healthy relationship with exercise, my constant desire for male attention disappeared. My NEED to be with someone vanished. My love for myself went through the roof. I began to truly nourish my body, mind and soul in all ways. I became very picky about who I let into my life in any capacity.

I cut a bunch more people out. I began to trust myself again. My anxiety and insomnia vanished. My health issues vanished. I finally truly saw my worth. I stopped calling myself stupid and an idiot. I stopped picking myself apart. I stopped trying to do what other people were doing because I was finally figuring out who I was again under all that shit. I felt lost. But in a good way. Like a blank slate. A kid trying all kinds of things, discovering what they truly liked. Truly feeling into my heart and following it. Finding the things that lit my soul up. I liked a lot of things before, a lot fell away, but the things that did stick and the new things I found, I don't just like them, I love them. They light up my soul. I feel excited about life again.

My heart bursts open with gratitude, love and joy daily now. I was led back to Jesus which shifted everything. I feel connected to Him. I feel his love everyday. I feel more love in general. I give more love. My life is amazing. I'm finding my path. I'm expanding into myself and also out into the world. And I'm 100% sure had I not found Liana, my life would not look like it does today. My life is unrecognizable from what it was just a few short years ago and for that, I am eternally grateful. As I continue to dive into the work, things just keep getting better. I will be a student of Liana's until I take my last breath. My love for her runs soul deep. She's the most beautiful, loving, supportive, empowering woman on the planet. Thank you, thank you, thank you Liana. I love you.

Hi, my name is Krystina, AKA the Queen of staying in my own fucking lane. What that means is minding my own business and focusing on what I want.

But it wasn't always like that.

I found Liana Shanti's teachings a few years ago. I began realizing my life was not exactly how I wanted it to be.

I come from a Latin authoritarian background. So breaking away from that was super hard. The mantra of "family is always family" was played out. I wasn't going to allow the mantra to keep me stuck.

Because people who truly love you will support you in whatever you do, not talk about you and judge what you do. That's not unconditional love.

I could be here for hours saying everything Liana has taught me because it's changed my life that much.

Liana Shanti has taught me what FREEDOM really means. So many people say they know what freedom means but do they really?

Have you ever interacted with someone you've never met but feels like you've known them forever? That's exactly how I felt as soon as I connected with Liana. She poured her love onto me and my family at a time I had no idea what the fuck was going on.

I didn't know what to do and was in a situation I'd never encountered before. But with the outpouring love she gives EVERY SINGLE SOUL she speaks to, she guided me and my husband through the hardest and darkest time.

At this very moment was the start of my healing journey. It was a huge wake up call. One I'll never forget but one I'll forever be grateful for.

Our family didn't understand because it was "weird" and not the way things should be done. But it wasn't our responsibility to explain.

Our parenting changed and that ruffled feathers, as Liana says all the time. All that mattered to me was healing so I could be the most conscious parent I could be. To raise an empowered daughter.

Liana's teachings are not half assed, they are LIFE CHANGING.

I've written different variations of this story over the past 6 months but have realized this will forever be an evolving list of gratitude. I wanted to express what my teacher means to me, who she is, what she's done for me and others.

She is more than a teacher, she is pure unconditional love in human form. She is empowerment, light, peace, and raw TRUTH.

She has taught me that through connecting with the true Jesus and the Divine that I could find myself again. She taught me I was not responsible for my pain and trauma but I was accountable for healing from it. She taught me that it was my God given right to live a life full of peace and joy and to accept nothing less for myself.

From 19 to 36 years old I spent my time drowning out pain. I spent 17 years binge drinking. Making very dangerous choices. From gun fire to almost being forced to perform oral sex, I constantly placed myself in unsafe situations.

Then 9 years ago I met someone I trauma bonded with and was introduced to weed, MDMA, and psychedelics. I lost all boundaries.

Reckless behavior. Drinking till I didn't remember. Smoking until I didn't remember. Drinking and smoking to not think about the hangover and ignorant comments I made the night before. I hated myself. I suffered from severe anxiety, sleep paralysis, anger and rage. I was emotionally unstable and projecting every wound I had onto those around me.

I ate poorly after binge drinking because I had already made irresponsible decisions, so what difference did it make at that point?

I was destroying my body from the inside out. I was destroying my soul from the inside out.

I was running and hiding from so much pain and trauma from my childhood. I had a malignant narcissistic mother who projected all her pain onto me and abused me in every sense. I had a father who let his ego run his life and mine and sexually abused me. I was running and hiding from the sheer anger I had from having cancer at 19 and being unable to have children.

I was enslaved to a victim mentality.

Ever since I was 3 or 4 years old I remember going to church and learning about Jesus and thinking "they have this wrong, that's not how he is and that's not who God is." While I was raised Christian, religion never really made sense to me. And even through the worst times, Jesus has never left my side. I remember stumbling through dark streets in college, hammered drunk and alone, praying Psalm 23:4. He is the reason for my survival but I was still so lost and disconnected. I wanted to be closer to him but didn't know how.

Then I found Liana. Her teachings made it all click. She taught me that Jesus wasn't going to save me but he would show me how to save myself. She reflected my own inner wisdom. Her guidance has led me to live a life full of joy, gratitude, and abundance. Her messages and programs guided me to a place of loving myself enough to honor myself. I became fully plant-based, stopped smoking weed, using drugs, and drinking alcohol. I ended an extremely toxic marriage with an abusive husband.

I released toxic friendships and toxic family members. I am now fully connected to Jesus. My life is proof that what she teaches is 100% the truth. The light that shines through her has eliminated darkness in every corner of my life. I am finally free and I love myself for the first time ever. I cherish myself, my body, and most importantly my soul.

Thank you Liana for helping my soul course correct. Thank you for helping me remember who I am. You have been one of the most beautiful gifts in this lifetime.

You HAVE saved each of us, Liana Shanti. You've guided us to connect ourselves with Jesus and save our souls. Literally. It is ALL thanks to you, to your teachings and to Jesus.

This is our real story, and our real healing. Your unconditional love, your empowerment, your strength, your will for us all to reclaim our sovereignty, and self love for ourselves.

If it wasn't for you, I would've been dead by now and this isn't a joke. I was ready to end my life because of the pain and suffering I was experiencing. Every single day. I messaged you randomly, and you took the time to show me love, to give me hope, that I could survive my futile prognosis. I DID.

And so much more. A year later, I am off all my meds, weed, alcohol, and my pain is gone. I respect myself again. I love myself again. I have the strength to speak my truth. You connected me to the unconditional love I never got from my parents.

I don't even know where to begin. So much has happened since I was guided to Liana Shanti. It feels like I've lived an entire lifetime in this last year since being divinely guided to her teachings.

I had been sick for 3+ years with chronic pancreatitis, countless hospital admissions and procedures at leading hospitals across Canada, going in and out of emergency rooms for top ups of pain medications which just made me feel even sicker for days afterwards, many biopsies and pancreatic cancer scares, not being able to eat or drink without pain, or even go for short walks, suffering from debilitating pain with ever increasing medication dosages, getting seen by many of the top GI specialists – all giving me ONE answer:

Your pancreatic function is going to worsen, your pain is going to increase, your symptoms are going to worsen over time, you'll be at a much higher risk of pancreatic cancer and we will eventually need to remove your pancreas, which will make you a type-1 diabetic. Great prognosis, right?

By February of 2021, I was smoking up to 5 grams of weed a day. In addition to this, I was barely eating and was pumping my body full of prescription drugs, including some high level narcotics. I felt like a burden on everyone around me. My husband started working from home by the end of 2019 to become my primary caregiver. I lost who I was. I lost my life. I was looking for ways out. Ways to end my life. I wanted to overdose on my narcotics, but with my history of working in acute care, I was well aware that a medically-induced suicide gone wrong would leave me with anoxic brain injury and even more pain. I was too afraid to jump or hang myself, although in all honesty, those were both very real possibilities I did consider.

So instead I started praying. I prayed to God every single day to please not let me wake up the next day. But God had other plans.

I randomly came across Liana Shanti on Instagram who said in a post, we can heal ourselves from any disease. I was curious, so I messaged her. What did I really have to lose at this point? I was already praying to end my life so I thought, well let's see what she has to say. I told her what the doctors had told me and asked if she thought I could do something about it.

Her response: you can heal yourself from chronic pancreatitis. Nothing is permanent, not the damage to your pancreatic tissue and neither is the pain. She was the FIRST person to ever say that to me, so I was both in tears at that possibility and intrigued. Liana took time out of her day to have a conversation with me, an absolutely complete stranger, and offered me hope, spoke to me with love and patience and kindness. I thanked her and she sent me love and healing prayers. She didn't try to sell me anything.

I began going through her profile, who she was, what she offered. She spoke of real healing, deep healing, core healing. Not the surface stuff, but she spoke TRUTH about childhood trauma and wounding, and brought awareness to things most people would be too afraid to speak of. But not her. She was fierce and honest. I wondered if she could really help me. Every cell in my body screamed YES. SHE IS THE REAL DEAL.

In March of 2021, I signed up for her community. I began listening to her teachings, and EVERY SINGLE THING she said were things I was too afraid to face myself. She spoke and taught of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. That's when I realized the lie that my life was and had always been. My whole life, I had been living under the false illusion that my parents loved me, unconditionally. But instead I realized, I was only loved when my likes, desires and behaviors met their agenda. Unconditional love didn't exist my entire life and in most circumstances was replaced by physical, mental and emotional abuse when I wanted to follow my own wishes and suggested them:

- Cutting my hair - How I wanted to dress - What career I wanted to pursue - Choosing my life partner - What food I ate - This list is inexhaustible

The more trauma I uncovered, the more I healed from my physical pain. Pain I had been in non-stop for 3+ years. THIS was my first experience of LIFEPROOF. Going from not knowing what it feels like to not be in excruciating pain at every moment of every day, to no pain. I was mind blown, to say the least. This was real and happening to me. It was the opposite of what every doctor had told me because they were just looking at the physical symptoms without addressing anything else. Being pain-free was no longer just a message I was reading from her. It was turning into my reality. Next, my physical strength returned. I began showering with no one watching over me. I began to cook in the kitchen again with my husband. I began to go on walks with our furbaby. Things I hadn't been able to do the last 3 years.

Then the mental and emotional lifeproof showed up. I began to respect myself again – not more, I mean AGAIN, because it had completely stopped. I started to look at myself in the mirror again and not see a sick body looking back at me. I began to smile at myself again. My husband and I began rebuilding our relationship, which had once been lost because I had become a hollow shell of who I once used to be on all my medications. But this time, our relationship was better, more loving, more respectful, more kind.

The more trauma I uncovered through Liana's life changing programs, the more alive I felt. My will to live returned. Now I wanted to live. I remember I told my husband one day after working with Liana for a few months, "I don't want to die yet," as we both sat there crying. THIS WAS MY TURNING POINT. Liana's guidance and teaching connected me with Jesus. Not the religious BS one, but the REAL JESUS – the path of unconditional love. Which is exactly what my teacher embodies in everything she does. UNCONDITIONAL LOVE.

The more I healed my trauma and wounding, the more my mind, my body and my soul improved. I began to have dreams again of what I wanted to do in my life. Our dream was to move someplace warm, have a tiny home on a big plot of land and work for ourselves. We cut out all the toxic crap from our life – abusive family and friends, soul-sucking jobs, and left the cold ass winters of Canada. My intense addictions to weed and alcohol just so I could survive my interactions with toxic friends and family, because that way I was there physically, but I wasn't really there because I really didn't want to be.

And come October, guess what? WE DID JUST THAT. We moved to the sunshine state, in our tiny home on a big plot of land, LIVING OUR DREAM.

I wanted to help others suffering from chronic pancreatitis who had also been given their futile diagnosis, and joined Health Mastery Institute to become a Certified Holistic Health Coach. As I pursued that, even more dreams started coming true. I began giving others the same hope that I had once received from Liana. Real hope, because I was LIFEPROOF of it.

I always loved art and I always wanted to make that a part of my career. My parents told me I could never have a career in art so I went to school for health care. And guess what? I DID THAT TOO THIS YEAR. I am painting, creating stickers and helping soulful entrepreneurs build brands for their businesses. Like, WHO KNEW this would be something I would be doing. But here I AM, doing just that. Why? Because my teacher, Liana Shanti, BELIEVED IN ME. Believed in my gifts. That was my parents' job, but they failed to do that. But they also failed to love me unconditionally.

Everything my friends and family thought I was incapable and crazy for doing, I did. I wanted to have my health, my life back – DONE. I wanted to live in a warm place – DONE. I wanted to have a little teddy bear come to life, my furbaby – DONE. I wanted to live in a tiny home – DONE. I wanted to work for myself, doing what I love – DONE.

I wanted to marry the love of my life while every family member fought to tear us apart because we came from 2 feuding religious backgrounds – DONE. I wanted to love myself again – DONE.

WHY? Because of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. Something I learned from my teacher Liana Shanti, who embodies the unconditional love and teachings of Jesus. She infuses everything she does with unconditional love – her words, her messages, her teachings, her guidance, and most of all, her love.

How many people can say they have done ALL of this? THIS is why I say it feels like I have lived a lifetime in this past one year. And I am just getting started. DO YOU IN THE BACK HEAR ME? Liana is the ONLY teacher who walks her talk. Who embodies and lives and breathes what she teaches, in every part of her life – teacher, mother, friend, wife. My cup has been overflowing with love and gratitude for her since the first day I messaged her as a random stranger, and that cup has NEVER stopped overflowing. It is spilling over for others to get a taste of what a life with Liana's teachings looks and feels like.

THANK YOU LIANA FOR SAVING MY LIFE, AND GUIDING ME BACK HOME TO JESUS.

Back to all stories

I have a vivid memory from 2013, where I was telling my partner at the time, "I think I just need to accept that this is my life."

That year was the crux of my health problems – chronic stomach issues, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, fainting spells, panic attacks, severe depression.

I was smoking weed all day, every day, to cope. I just thought, "I guess I have to be high for the rest of my life."

All of this was while I was studying to become a psychotherapist. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was drawn to psychology and therapy because I desperately wanted to understand.

Why did I feel this way? Why did I struggle so much? I learned a lot in that field, but it had its limits. It was clear to me that I was not the only one who went into the field because of deep wounds, wounds that were not totally healed and that were constantly being projected onto others.

As I dove further into the field of mental health, I realized it lacked depth. It felt like surface level intellectualism. Sure, I could explain to you 5 different theories of why I felt depressed and anxious, but I had no idea how to actually heal.

At best, I could try to manage it. Even Somatic Experiencing, a niche in psychotherapy that I practiced for 2 years, and the closest thing I found to actual permanent healing, seemed to fall short.

You'd always have to be dependent on a therapist to provide it for you, to hold that space. And even after releasing a lot, you'd always have to go back for "tune-ups."

When I found Liana Shanti and her teachings in 2021, it felt like all the pieces I have learned over the years fell into place – the role of food in physical health, candida overgrowth, core wounds, narc abuse, quantum physics and energies, astrology, laws of abundance, and of course, the spiritual aspect of connecting with the Divine and Jesus.

Not only did all the pieces seem to come together, but instead of a dependence model that arises in psychotherapy, and western medicine, her teachings focus on each person learning how to find healing and empowerment within themselves.

For the first time in my life, I truly know I will reach full health, and live an abundant, joyful, passionate life, co-creating with the Divine. I always knew the answers were out there, somewhere, and I'm so grateful that Jesus led me to Liana.

This is my second time sharing how much Liana and her teachings have impacted my life, and it definitely won't be the last. It's only been about 6 months since I wrote my first testimony, but so much has changed.

Back then, I was still living in a dark state, a couple of weeks away from moving. While I was making small changes, I was still smoking weed, drinking, and mostly eating crap. My toxic relationship was ending, but at the time I had no idea how bad it really was. I knew I had found the teachings and programs that would lead me to true healing, and while I had begun to do some healing and make some changes, I was getting ready to dive in.

Now, only 6 months later, I already feel like a different person. Quit weed. Quit alcohol. Finally quit binging and using junk food to numb out. Doing daily clearings and healing sessions. Praying constantly. Feeling so connected to Jesus – a peace and joy I've never felt.

My skin is starting to heal and clear up. I was struggling with acne, dry itchy skin, and psoriasis on my scalp. My thinning hair has stopped, and it's feeling healthier. My digestive issues have improved. I'm able to notice triggers and emotions and not be consumed by them. And even though the past 6 months have been very challenging, I feel the most grounded and optimistic I ever have in my life.

I know I'm just getting started with my healing journey, but to experience such incredible life proof so quickly is amazing. The healing path may not be easy, but it's SO worth it. I cannot express in words my gratitude for Liana and everything she does. My life would be a continual story of suffering if I hadn't found her and her programs. Thank you, Liana, from the bottom of my heart.

I did drugs my whole life. After finding Liana Shanti, I quit within 2 days. THAT'S the power of HER Light.

I actually found her high on drugs. The day I found her I knew I was done. This was it.

I quit and two days later started her Lifepath program. I never looked back since.

It wasn't a straight and arrow road, but what healing is?

Alcohol had been a part of my life since I was 12 years old. The drugs came later. And it was at its peak when I was 28. Doing more than I would like to admit and having no idea where my life was taking me.

That's when I found Liana. Her Light BLASTED through my addictions. Something I had been trying to quit for years left within two days. I did them a year later for two months and learned the hard way how dark they were. That was the final straw. I've never done them again since.

It's nothing short of a miracle I am here because of her Light, Teachings, Unconditional Love, and Way shower energy. She's taught me what self love and health really FEEL like.

Today: I am 4+ years sober from alcohol AND drugs, all of it, healed my body from a toxic candida infection, started not one but TWO businesses, uncovered childhood trauma, left my family cult, and I'm more peaceful than I could have ever dreamed of.

You can't buy that kind of peace. It's miraculous. It's not something I can even put into words. My life has done a 360 and the LIFEPROOF is undeniable. I will continue to work with her until my dying days.

I found Liana Shanti 2 years ago and my first message to her was on March 18th, 2020, on her and Jesus' birthday.

I found Liana Shanti 2 years ago and my first message to her was on March 18th, 2020, on her and Jesus' birthday. At the time I had no idea of this beautiful and powerful synchronicity, the magnitude of finding her and what it meant for the trajectory of my soul. From that moment on my life began to change immensely for the BETTER. When I found her I was lost, confused and completely checked out from "life."

I hated everything about myself, my path, and self love was non existent, it was a completely foreign concept to me. I was always numb in front of the TV, high on weed. My inner dialogue was literally "you bitch," because I thought some tough love would get me off my lazy ass and make something good happen and change the course of my life. Before finding her I was riddled with dark and suicidal thoughts and couldn't stop victimizing my life and circumstances.

No matter what I did I couldn't get the approval of my parents and felt nothing I did was good enough and I would never be worthy of love in my life. That is until I started healing my Mother Wound, Father Wound and Narcissism Wound. She helped me understand that I have always been worthy of unconditional love. The Divine and Jesus have kept my soul safe so I can strive towards building a life I deserve to have and I am WORTHY of.

Her guidance has led to mental peace and clarity, powerful discernment, the courage to stand up for myself against those who were hell bent on bringing me down no matter what I did, a job I love dearly that has brought me financial freedom, something I was led to believe I could never have. I have quit weed and completely changed my diet for the better. I will choose Liana as my teacher over and over again across all multiverses as long as my soul exists. I wouldn't be where I am without her unconditional love and support. I am empowered and sovereign because she paved the way for me. You deserve the world and then some, Liana. Thank you for allowing me the honour of being your student.

"Every single thing that you eat is either creating disease or nourishing your body. There's no in between." – Liana Shanti

Even after removing my implants, I was still exhausted and struggling with my weight.

A year on the keto diet had wrecked the progress I was making on healing after my surgery. I was still eating dairy and drinking copious amounts of coffee. I didn't understand that everything you eat, every relationship, every conversation, everything you watch and read, affects your health.

I was still living a life filled with doing the things I should and the things that made me good and worthy of love, and my body and energy reflected that. I finally understand that if my life isn't vibrant, joyful, and full of life, only I can change that. Life can be beautiful. Love can be easy. – paraphrased from my teacher Liana Shanti's womb clearing.

I'm done being exhausted all the time and just trying to get through each day. I'm ready to create a life that I'm thrilled to be in every single day.

I never knew life was meant to be filled with so much love, gratitude, emotion, abundance, happiness, health, FREEDOM until I found Liana Shanti. I remember SO clearly the feelings I had before I found her. I knew I wasn't truly happy, I was working at Dunkin Donuts and had 2 kids, I thought this was it. I had zero plan of where I wanted to go, what I wanted to do in this world besides be a wife, mom, barista. Not even a good mom either.

I was ok with being a tired, angry, reactive mom, because I did not even know there was more to life than that. NO ONE around me was actually happy. NO ONE around me was actually living their dreams. No one around me was actually healthy. No one around me actually knew how to love, unconditionally. Everyone around me, including me, was just there. Alive, but light years away from thriving.

Before Liana:

I couldn't cry, unless I was trying to manipulate someone.

My real emotions were so blocked off, so held down with anger.

I honestly had no idea there was more to life than the "same shit, different day" I'd been looped in.

I was FAR from the mom I knew my children deserved.

I was chronically stressed out. Suffering with IBS, chronic fatigue, excruciating periods.

I didn't know I was capable of being wealthy AND happy.

I didn't know I was able to feel full of energy and excited for life every day.

I had very little belief in myself. I had very little belief in God, in Jesus. I detested Jesus and God, because what the church taught of them felt so wrong that I shut it all out.

I had no idea I wasn't free, because just like everyone around me, I was so shackled in the 3D, the family cult, the stories, the lack of self love. Until I found Liana.

I first found Liana in 2013 through her nutrition page. KNEW and FELT she was the real deal, 100%. Never stopped following her.

Thank you.

I was led to Liana Shanti when I was on a quest for answers. A few years prior, an unexpected break up tore me to pieces. I was a shell of a person. I felt utterly worthless and it had me questioning, why was I so unloveable?

At first, the search led me deeper into the Catholic Church. Finding no answers there, I turned to self-help books, relationship "experts" and their programs, psychology podcasts, therapy, and even a bullshit new age program to help me manifest a partner. The man who would finally love me and fix my brokenness.

What I didn't realize yet was that I had no real love for myself. My self-worth was nonexistent and I was desperate for love and attention from anyone besides myself. Out of this broad range of "experts" that I came across, I realized that none of them spoke about Jesus.

In fact, it felt like I was being pulled farther away from Him and my belief in the Divine. Until I found Liana. She spoke about God and Jesus in a whole new way. A way that felt real, that felt like truth.

I'll be honest, in the beginning I was triggered by some things, but I thank Jesus for giving me the self awareness to work through my triggers. When I first heard Liana speak, I was blown away.

I had never in my entire life heard a woman speak with such power, love, intelligence, and grace. Her words gave me hope for the first time in years.

Her programs were beyond life changing. Liana's teachings helped me to finally develop a deep love for myself. To help me listen to and protect my inner children, the little girls who had been crying out for attention all those years.

She has empowered me to heal my wounds, clear my shadow, and to accept full responsibility for all of my actions. And I now understand that no one is coming to save me, I can only save myself.

The most profound way Liana has touched my life is by helping me strengthen my relationship with Jesus. I no longer believe that God is a floating man in the sky, counting all of our sins like religion teaches us. I have a direct connection to Jesus and to our Creator. Jesus is within ME – there's no greater joy than knowing that. Liana has also given me courage to talk about the Real Jesus. I love to talk about him now. I was too scared to before. Today I love to say, post and wear His name just so others can be in His loving energetic presence, if only just for a moment.

The quest for answers ended when I was led to Liana. Not only am I the happiest I have ever been in my life, but I am healthier than ever because of everything I have learned through Liana's nutrition school. I also left my soul-sucking job and I am now pursuing my dream career with the goal of being in true service to others. Liana's brilliant business school is guiding me through this transition. I have no idea where I would be now without Liana. Her teachings have transformed my life into one of love and acceptance. The healing work continues, but I am so thankful I have Liana as my guide and guru.

Liana didn't just save my life. She is saving my life by showing me what an unconditionally loving, divinely guided, and fully empowered woman looks like. She is saving my life by teaching me how to fully surrender to Jesus. She is saving my life by being the example of how to courageously use our voices to speak out against darkness and how to be a warrior of light for Jesus. During these unstable times, Liana brings me peace unachieved by anything else. My gratitude to her is endless. Thank you Liana for saving my life.

If it weren't for Liana I wouldn't be here right now. When I found Liana I was so lost and hopeless. I had been searching my whole adult life on how to "fix" what was wrong with me.

I had toxic family, relationships, friendships, work situations. I felt horrible about myself, feeling constant anxiety, overwhelm, low self esteem, extremely low depressive moods.

I drank and did drugs to the point of blacking out, being sick in bed for days, and once I felt better I would do it all over again. The only time I felt happy was when I was drinking. I would even drink in the morning.

I could barely get out of bed some days. Just being able to get up to have a bath was an accomplishment for me. I would need a few cups of coffee to do anything or work. I had been trying to quit drinking, but it was still happening, followed by thoughts of wanting to die. I was eating like garbage. I felt worthless. I hated myself and my body, I was so disconnected from it.

I was a codependent people pleaser that couldn't say no or speak up for myself.

I had tried so many counsellors, and healing methods, and wound up in the new age. I so desperately wanted someone to tell me what I needed to do to not feel the way I did anymore. I did not trust myself, gave so much of my power away and wanted to be rescued. I thought everyone knew better than I did.

The day I found Liana's Instagram page, I couldn't stop reading all she shared on so many topics. This is what I had been searching for. Everything she says is truth. What I had found before on my search was little sprinkles of truth mixed with luciferian lies. Nothing that tied it all together, that went to the depths to get to the root of it and that had action with it, to actually truly heal.

My ego wasn't ready to give up the new age reiki yet, and I chose to learn the hard way. Through a series of events, I finally realized the darkness I had let into my life and how much it was affecting me.

In the middle of the night, lost, scared, feeling broken and hopeless, I messaged Liana. She removed the symbols from me. That moment changed my life. That night she saved my life. Words are not enough to express how grateful I am for her.

My life has gotten so much better since then. Liana has led me back to Jesus.

I have learned so much about Jesus, not the religious cult or new age version, the true Jesus. I am so grateful to be able to have a relationship and connection with him. To continue to learn to trust and surrender to him. He has given me so much strength, courage, protection and love. He has carried me through many challenging moments. I have hope now. I have felt the most beautiful peace in my heart, that I had never experienced before and didn't know was possible.

I received a wellness plan from one of Liana's wonderful HMI students. I was able to start implementing healthier habits and healing my adrenal fatigue.

I did the HMI parasite cleanse as a group, which was life changing. I did the 21 day juice cleanse. That was my lifeproof.

It cleared and healed so much, shifting my habits to actually make my own food, care about nutrition. My energy levels got so much better, brain fog went away, quit coffee. The only coffee now is up my butt.

Clearing the parasites helped me have a clearer connection to Jesus, myself, and my body. I got rid of physical and energetic parasites. I quit drinking and drugs. I quit my old job. I released misaligned friendships.

I didn't have many memories from childhood – dissociating – and the ones I had weren't good. From cleansing my body, more has come back to me that I had repressed, including CSA, that is helping me piece together why I felt the way I did, why I was numbing myself out and why my inner children were in so much pain.

I left a 3.5 year on-off toxic relationship.

I left my dad's side of the family cult, prior to doing any of Liana's programs. All that she has shared on this topic helped me feel strong in my decision. Being out of it has helped me see how abusive they actually were, that I was so blind to.

I had been "kicked" out of their family when I was 19 and I carried so much shame, guilt and feeling like a failure. I went back to them, then left and went back again a few years ago. This time was different. I feel so good and empowered about my decision to not be a part of their dysfunction anymore. I am free and never going back.

Because of Liana I am learning to love myself and my body. I am learning to trust myself and make decisions on my own. I am learning to feel all that I had numbed out from. I have the tools now to work through anything coming up. I am learning to reparent my inner children and stop reabusing them. The majority of the critical voices that played on a loop in my head have stopped. I am learning to shift from victim to empowerment, accountability and integrity. I am finding the courage to use my voice to speak truth.

I am doing the narc course and candida cleanse now. The narc course has helped me understand and release so much. Doing the first session before getting the course helped release so much heaviness on the challenging days. I am so grateful for this program and to soon be living a narc free life.

I still have so much more to heal but I am grateful the search is over.

I found so much comfort in the words Liana has shared: "You are not broken. You are wounded and wounds can heal."

Liana is the embodiment of truth and unconditional love. I thank Jesus for guiding me to her every day. For all that she shares and offers. She embodies fierce divine feminine. She doesn't tell anyone what to do, she guides you to find the answers within yourself, to the true path of healing. Empowerment, sovereignty, accountability and unconditional love.

Her surrender and relationship with Jesus is beautiful to witness and learn from. Everything she speaks about, she shows with her actions how it's done. She is so giving, with so many offerings to help humanity heal, with Illuminations and all the clearings, prayers, her programs and just everything she shares and does with her whole heart. Illuminations speaks to my heart and soul and is the highlight of my week.

The words thank you are not enough. Thank you for all that you do Liana, for being such a beacon of light, for being such a beautiful human and soul, for accepting this path, for the relentless work that you do. For your strong empowered voice and for shining light on all the darkness. Thank you for saving my life.

In August 2012, I came across a page on FB that I knew was the answer to my prayers. That page was Liana Shanti's RawganicVegan page. Leading up to that time my body was very sick, and I had begun seeking and taking natural healing measures to heal my body. I had also been seeking healing of my soul and my mind for many years but I wasn't finding the light and teachings that came from true source until I "met" Liana. My initial healing journey with Liana began with her 66 Day Mastery program and as her private client.

My health began to improve the second I began implementing her teachings and programs. When she released her Health Mastery Institute Nutrition School program I enrolled straight away and the passion I had for holistic healing grew even more with the knowledge I gained from completing and graduating from HMI. I am grateful for this every day.

I was disciplined with healing my body via nutrition and yet I allowed my ego to get in the way of diving deeper into the healing of my soul and mind. I saw, as it had been shared with me many times, that to truly heal mind, body and soul, we must heal our mother, father and core wounds and release what no longer serves us. While I did take every program Liana created as soon as they were released, my ego and certain choices held me back in different ways.

Wounds are deep and there are so many layers. Liana Shanti, her teachings, her unconditional love and guidance were, and still are, constant and true. Deep down I knew what I had to do and what was of true divine and Christ light. And every day I am grateful the Divine and Jesus guided me to Liana. Her clear light and unconditional love has gifted myself and many others with the tools we need to heal ourselves, to heal our shadows, to unconditionally love ourselves and to make changes. Change of course can be super uncomfortable but the result is so liberating and our light shines so bright when we release.

All of Liana's programs are designed in a way where you can go back through them to continue healing the layers as you peel them back.

To dive deeper each time. To assist you daily so there is action you can take to heal and love yourself unconditionally. I will share my life experience, or story if you will, and how that brought me to begin healing, and the continued journey of healing through Liana's programs and also the amazing nutrition guidance I learnt while taking and completing HMI. Healing is vital for us all. And any forward step you take for your health is amazing.

Unconditional love. How many of us received this? How many of us have this for ourselves and thus for others? Do we know what it looks like? Feels like? Unconditional love is something I've been learning to give myself through the healing programs of my teacher, the one human who has always loved me unconditionally. Through her unconditional love I have come to see, feel and understand that I have always, like everyone, been loved unconditionally by the Divine father and mother and Jesus. Over the years my understanding of unconditional love involved a lot of confusion.

Many times I projected my wounds onto the love Liana, the Divine or Jesus was showing me. Diving deeper into Liana's programs whilst doing her candida cleanse has brought me to depths of pain, wounds and stories that I clung on to for many years. I may have been aware of them throughout my life, but it wasn't until the last year that I have really gone deeper. I also needed to release most people and anything connected to my life. For me this catapulted me to seeing my wounds and my shadow a lot more clearly.

It showed me sexual abuse I experienced from infancy. It's showing me how deep the toxic poison of being brought up by narcissists really is. I am having deeper understanding and connection to my accountability for all the choices I've made and their consequences. Shifting out of the guilt and shame I felt for them for years, which kept me stuck and from doing any true healing.

Guilt and shame felt familiar to me. Even though I could admit and see a lot of my mistakes, I'd get stuck on the guilt and shame, never able to see what I need to see, release, heal and move forward. Liana tells us to not hold on to them but my inner children didn't want to let go of something they identified with so much. Because they felt they deserved to be punished. To think a child deserves punishment.

Connecting with my inner children through Liana's programs has shifted so much lately. I sing to them, write to them, hold them and tell them they are worthy and deserving of unconditional love. That they already have it.

Thank you Liana, Jesus and Divine.

My favorite way to start the day: green juice. When I started juicing back in 2011 it was mainly wheatgrass and it was very healing for me as I moved away from a diagnosis and medications. I had 2 major operations and was in constant pain. I had been on a liquid diet for some time and been given a powder to mix with water, also premade liquid meals called Ensure. I couldn't stomach them and I didn't want to, especially after taking a closer look at the ingredients. Nothing healthy in them AT ALL. I knew this was not the way to health.

I knew there was another way which would be true health and my way to start eating solid food again. The real turning point for me was when I was told I would need to be tube fed for the rest of my life and that the pain I had daily would never go and I would have a stoma – this was something I was "offered" from the get go as the "solution." I knew in that moment I would find a way to heal. It was around that time I also decided I would stop having the immunosuppressant infusions I had been on for a few months.

They made me sick, exacerbated symptoms, and after each session at the hospital I'd walk home with no recollection of how I got there. My body was telling me this was not the way. Then the Divine showed me the true way to healing when I found Liana Shanti's FB page in 2012. I took Liana's 66 Day Health Mastery program back in 2013 alongside a group of amazing people and my healing increased tenfold. Juicing became my favorite way to start the day. We CAN heal our bodies, mind and soul.

Many people say it's hard to make changes. In truth it's only as hard as we make it. The alternative is definitely NOT a walk in the park. Why would we want to choose that? By saying something is hard, we make it exactly that: HARD. Can there be things that are challenging? Sure, but we can work through them and continue on with healing. Our stories and limiting beliefs get in the way of our healing and our true liberation. I had my stories too, I held them in my body for years which resulted in illness and pain.

In 66 Day Mastery, I was able to uncover what some of those stories and limiting beliefs were and bring them to light and release them.

There were some stories and limiting beliefs that were buried deep. They manifested in many ways. I had 9 more surgeries as I was doing my healing, and mainly because I was making choices keeping me stuck in that. I needed to peel back many layers to get to them, and I still am doing this. All of Liana's other life changing programs guided me to do this, each one providing me with what I needed to heal mind, body and spirit.

To make changes, to look at my shadow, to begin to love myself unconditionally, to connect with my inner children, to heal core wounds, to experience health, joy and creativity. They still do and always will. They are a daily part of my life, in all ways. I thank the Divine daily for Liana, her light, love and for creating such amazing programs that truly empower you to make choices for your healing that come from true light.

Programs such as the 66 Day Health Mastery, which include daily meal plans, shopping lists, nutrition info, recipes, looking at limiting beliefs and so much more, a holistic approach to healing because that is what is truly needed, provide such an awesome way to get started on an amazing healing journey. I know it did for me and so many others. Another powerful and profound program Liana created is her Heal Candida Now program.

My life during 2009 to 2019 was a continuing cycle of doubt, confusion, binge eating, validation seeking, and choosing to remain in narcissistic relationships with people who were siphoning my life force. I didn't realize there was a way to escape this circle. Everything in life felt so random and uncontrollable, including myself.

From 2016 to 2018, I was with an emotionally, verbally, and physically abusive alcoholic. At my wits' end with the direction of my life, I spent every single day and night praying to God to show me the way out, to show me my true friends and my true path.

I knew deep down that my natural gifts and abilities were worth so much more than the level of treatment I was accepting. At the time I had no knowledge of the true teachings of Jesus, but I felt that there was a Divine power, and that it was listening to me.

Eventually I left that relationship, but that was only the beginning. I had yet to meet the spiritual teacher that would open the flood gates and catapult me forward.

Fast forward to early 2021, when I first found Liana on Instagram. Led to her page by the grace of God, I knew INSTANTLY that my prayers had been answered. I resonated with every word and felt my heart and spirit soar with hope and the recognition that, yes – finally – I was in the right place.

Liana's teachings gave me the awareness, courage, strength, and the tools to look deep into my own heart and heal myself of the past that I was still carrying in every cell of my body. I am learning to be the sole master of my energy. I am being encouraged to step into true leadership. I am able to express solid boundaries, truly forgive myself and others, be HONEST with myself about the unfavourable things I have done or participated in, and love and respect myself enough to embark on my life path. I still have many layers to uncover and heal, but knowing with absolute certainty where my soul is going and that I am following Jesus is priceless.

Liana, thank you for modelling and embodying love, acceptance, grace, and understanding. My life would not be the same without your teachings and I stand in testimony of your unwavering faith in Jesus, love, and humanity. It is because of the community you have built that I am able to blossom into my true self and the beautiful, exciting life that comes with it. I am so grateful and honoured to be among this group of people.

If you are reading this and you feel a pull, I encourage you to listen to one of Liana's many free offerings on her website. It may just be the beginning of something extraordinary for you.

When I first saw RawganicVegan on Facebook in 2013 my body and soul knew we had found something special.

When I first saw RawganicVegan on Facebook in 2013 my body and soul knew we had found something special. I immediately started her 66-day programming and within the first 10 days I had all the proof I needed that this lady was legit. As an internal medicine physician and associate professor at a medical school and graduate medical education program, I knew nutrition was important and had been searching for something to supplement the nutrition knowledge that I knew was inadequate from my medical school education.

What I learned and experienced that year was proof positive she was knowledgeable and her programs worked. My body responded, I had energy and people were asking me where I got all that energy just drinking juices and eating plants.

As is common, life distracted me and I went back to eating in the old way after 6 months. I stopped the program. There was no outrage, no condemnation. My decision to return to old ways was not remarked on.

When she first came out with Mother Wound and Father Wound I felt I didn't need that at first. No outrage, no condemnation, just love and acceptance of my decision as an adult.

I was called to her Lifepath program and after initial resistance I signed up in 2017. I was in a job that was going nowhere at the time and I knew I needed to do something. While doing the program I got a job interview in Dubai and in discussions got in my feelings about an opinion expressed, and when I didn't get the job I left the group. No condemnation, no chastising, just acceptance of my decision as an adult.

I stayed in her Illuminations group and the weekly information was just critical, and when she offered Lifepath again in 2020 I took it, this time determined to complete the process. I was in relationships full of gaslighting at home and at work. During this class, I finally saw the pattern of narcissism that I had all around me. I finally recognized the damage to my psyche and I dived into the narcissism class late that year.

Oh my goodness.

The free first class transformed my life in September 2020. I quickly did the rest as revelation after revelation of abuse came to me. I started to do her classes after years of just bypassing, and then I got my dream job in Hawaii that enabled me to move from the mainland during the pandemic. I enrolled in HMI. I was able to steer clear of the vaccine agenda and my body is whole and healthy, down 20 pounds, and I never experienced the infection despite working front line during the pandemic for two years, thanks to Liana's nutritional guidance. I was able to leave organized medicine and start my own company teaching HMI principles, being able to live free and practice what I preach. Practice with integrity. Lifeproof.

I recently enrolled in her business school and am getting priceless guidance from her. She has built multimillion dollar businesses in varying fields. To learn from her is an honor. The life experience she is sharing with us in class is just mind blowing and life-changing. Every program I have of hers, and I have them all, have brought positivity to my life.

In all the years I have known Liana Shanti she has been a strong proponent of unconditional love of self, sovereignty, freedom of choice and accountability. She has never wavered and I know she never will. Her unconditional love and guidance is what I credit for the walk I have with the true Jesus Christ today. My life with him has led to the wonderful joy I feel waking up every day. I'm energized and healing and loving myself more and more each day as I do the work of healing and serving God's will.

Thanks to Liana I have rid myself of people who were draining me, and I learned that choices of others are not my responsibility and sometimes even when you love someone your paths may need to separate, and true love is when they wish you well and release you. She taught me that with her grace and her acceptance of my wavering spirit in the beginning. And her steadfast commitment to my growth as an individual as long as I want to do the work. Thank you so much for opening this thread so I could add my story. I wish all people who read this the joy of loving themselves and living free of condemnation. I hope you find your light to guide you. I have found mine, thanks to Liana Shanti.

I'm a relative newcomer to Liana's work, yet she feels like home.

I'm a relative newcomer to Liana's work, yet she feels like home. From my first encounter by way of Instagram, up until this very day, her work has had a profound impact on my life. After trying every other healing modality known to man – 12 years of therapy, 6 years of acupuncture, countless "healing" programs and workshops – looking for relief from debilitating grief and sadness, I got some relief. However, in the end, those modalities ended up reinforcing the cycle of shame and unworthiness I was trying to heal from.

After taking Liana's core wound programs, what I know for sure is that she is the real deal. Her knowledge is vast and wide. She has a practical, no BS way in which she teaches, her connection to Jesus is like nothing I've ever witnessed in my lifetime, and she truly loves unconditionally. Being that most people who find their way to her teachings are deeply wounded, myself included, and who are people who have never experienced that kind of love or have never been celebrated for who they are, the intensity of her love can feel unnerving. I speak for myself here.

Yes, people are devoted to her and for good reason, however this is nothing she commands. The devotion is born out of the hope we feel, most for the first time ever, that we no longer have to remain a shell of who we were, barely breathing and calling it a life. This hope births the knowing and experiencing that we have value and worthiness, just because we are alive. This hope is born out of being truly seen and encouraged by someone with no agenda. She models the love of God in everything she says and does. Not the airy fairy bullshit, the fierce love of Jesus kind of love.

In the movie Hook, when Captain Hook kidnapped Peter Pan, Peter's daughter said he did so because "he just needed his mommy." Mommies are supposed to give unconditional love, this is foundational to our lives. Yet most mothers, because of their own woundedness, fall woefully short, therefore we go through the majority of our lives in a state of lack.

I imagine a time when this is not the case, and a way for that to be a reality is through Liana's core wound healing programs. They are that life changing. All most of us are looking for on this journey called life is to be loved unconditionally, and Liana Shanti does just that.

I don't even know where to begin.

Liana Shanti, thank you so much for choosing to step onto this path. If it weren't for you, I don't even want to think where I'd be. From your core wound programs, spiritual programs, business school and HMI Nutrition – you literally have saved my life, and not only that, but shown me, and all of us, how we can live the best freaking life we've ever imagined. AND THAT WE DESERVE IT.

Each and every one of your programs has helped me dig deep into my traumas that were causing suicidal thoughts, a life that was lacklustre, confusion, helplessness, preoccupation with food and eating disorders and more.

Through your programs AND your role-modelling, I love myself for the first time in my 28 years of existence. I trust myself and my intuition. I am more confident. I have healed my eating disorder. I have a new outlook on life. I understand how to care for myself better through nutrition. I have put myself out there in terms of business, doing things I NEVER thought I'd ever be able to do.

Thank you for everything you do, seen and unseen. You do so much out of pure love.

There's so much more I could go on about. I feel emotional as I reflect on who you are, and what you have provided all of us.

Thank you feels redundant, but from the bottom of my heart and with all my soul, Liana, thank you.

I am eternally grateful.

I want to thank you, my teacher Liana Shanti, from the deepest of my heart for showing me the way. I found her in January 2020 and I can tell that she came into my life in divine timing. As soon as I checked all her sharings it was love at first sight. Everything she was mentioning resonated so deeply in my heart that I immediately overcame the fear of not fully understanding what she was talking about in English, since I am Italian. Thanks to Liana I have found all the answers to my questions regarding all aspects of life.

From when I was a kid I was constantly feeling overwhelmed by my own questions, always looking to find my purpose or at least to give all sentient beings a sense to exist. I am an overthinker and this has caused me a lot of stress and anxiety, plus everyone around me seemed to have no answers for my big concerns. My deepest fear has always been not to embody who I came here to be. Thanks to her guidance about healing ourselves I feel I am every day a little closer to it.

I wanted to save the world, now I know I need to heal myself. I was always struggling helping others, forgetting myself and the immense work every one of us needs to do to heal and find peace within. Liana taught me how fundamental this is.

There is no day that passes by that I do not listen to one of her offerings and programs. I am learning something new from her every single day. I am so grateful because following her guidance I unlocked so many limiting beliefs around myself. Self worth and loving myself deeply comes before everything else now. Before her I was talking to my reflection in the mirror with the worst words.

I was feeling constantly unhappy and trying to numb out without realizing what was happening. My light was becoming hidden from myself. I remember clearly how in 2020, little by little, I started to change my daily habits, switched my thoughts and started to have faith again, like my inner self as a child had, and this was possible only listening to Illuminations every week.

By the end of the year I was feeling so connected to her and Jesus that I was finally ready to listen to my higher self and change the trajectory of my life, moving to another country with my family. Here I am, full of joy, living the best time of my life, waking up every morning being so emotional and grateful because I feel I did the right thing. Not only for me, but for my whole family.

I have found myself, I have found Jesus, I have found Liana in this lifetime with her magnificent guidance and unconditional love.

How did Liana save my life?

She opened me up to truths. The truths that I always felt and knew but was too scared to accept.

Through Liana's programs I started healing and I woke up. I woke up to Jesus. I woke up to the lie that was my life. I woke up to the unhappiness that I stifled day in and day out, pretending to be happy but knowing in my soul that it was only a façade. I woke up to the fact that I was wearing a mask. A mask that I hated. A mask that suffocated me. A mask that prevented me from speaking my own truths.

Why did I keep my mask on? Because I was scared. I feared opening myself up to Jesus, to His light. I was resistant to make the changes that I knew I must. I was scared of accepting my fully divine feminine power. I was scared of what I'd find underneath it. After all, it's a mask I've been wearing for most of my life.

But through Liana's programs, through healing and through Jesus' grace, I mustered the strength to take my mask off. I am not the same person I was, and I am fully embracing the highest version of me.

Some of my changes include:

- Connecting to Jesus daily - Loving myself and my inner children truly and deeply - Healing my inner shadow - Quitting my stressful job - Parenting my children with so much more patience and love - No longer eating animals - Making improvements in health - Separating from a church and its dogma - Enrolling in two of Liana's schools that are helping me live a life of complete health, abundance and joy - Leaving a loveless marriage - Cutting out people that no longer align with me - Trusting, fully trusting the Divine that I am on my highest path

My journey is ongoing. My healing is far from complete. There are unknowns. There are still fears that bubble up that I surrender to Jesus. But the mask is gone. It's off. It's been burned. And I am NEVER putting another mask back on. Thanks to Jesus. Thanks to Liana.

I found Liana Shanti through my cousin and ALL of her content resonated with me and what I had been looking for my whole life.

I listened to her Mother Wound course. It explained SO MANY things that have gone on in my life and helped me realize why I was obese. I had to start to take on the role as the parent to myself and start to heal from the things that caused wounding as a child. That program helped me shed about 15lbs of emotional weight I had been carrying around with me.

Then came Lifepath and Health Mastery Institute programs. Lifepath helped me go even deeper into the healing and I still use this daily. There is a lot of my childhood that I do not remember but with this program, I have uncovered some of those memories already. It also brought me back to my relationship with Jesus, who I knew was there, but was too afraid to accept him in my life until just before I turned 35.

Now, HMI has been the catalyst for helping me heal my body by using food as medicine. This has helped me release the last 30ish lbs, and still counting, since I've been learning how to become a Holistic Wellness Coach. The 66 Day Health Mastery Program has been essential in showing me how to eat properly and cleanse myself safely and effectively.

I tell you all of this because for the past few months, Liana has been slandered with extremely false information everywhere. NONE of it is true. She gives you the tools to empower yourself to take back your own sovereignty, make decisions yourself and take charge of your own health. I don't understand how that is even possibly a bad thing at all.

I probably would have still been a shell of myself, people pleasing left and right and being walked all over in all of the "friendships" and relationships I had, if I hadn't found her when I did. I wouldn't be learning to parent my actual children with unconditional love either. I am immensely grateful and will continue to share the truth.

My mother suckered my father into marrying her. My mother wanted to travel the world. My father wanted a family. She had an IUD for many years – only one of her friends knew and told me when I was an adult – and until he threatened to leave her if they didn't have a child, she then magically became pregnant with me after convincing him for years it was his fault.

She never wanted me and that was apparent from the get go. She "didn't know" she was pregnant until she was 6 months along, her water broke and she waited a few days to go to the hospital. I was born with an infection and the story goes I needed an IV and was in ICU. Isolation from the start. Then when I was three weeks old, she went back to work. "There was nothing for me to do with you, you were fed and washed early and so I went back to work and dropped you at my mother's." Which honestly was probably the best thing, less time for her to abuse and neglect me. So the mother wound, from the start.

The first time she hit me, I was 2. I was still in diapers and wanted juice, I spilled it, so she saw me trying to sneak to get paper towels to clean it up. She took me in my bedroom, took my diaper off and beat me. I don't remember much from my childhood. Even when I look at photos of myself, I can barely look my child self in my eyes.

A life of abuse that would vacillate between neglect or screaming, verbal abuse from being told I was a mistake, should have been an abortion, I was a dead albatross around her neck, stupid, fat, never amount to anything, an embarrassment, etc. She would take photos of me in the bathtub and would make fun of me that I was thinking about my favorite celebrity. She would beat me then tell me to wait till my father got home. He was a carpenter so he was really strong and I hated when he would hit me. He would use this solid triangular wooden ruler that we had. I would scream. Being beaten for any and all reasons. I didn't get 100, or I got 100 and I didn't get the bonus right. Nothing I did was ever enough.

Throwing anything she had near her at me, the cordless phone, the wooden spoon, a shoe, pulling my hair, ripping down my New Kids on the Block posters. She hit me until I turned 18, I raised my hands back to her and bruised her. "Look at what you did to me." Yes. Yes I did. I used to look at her laying on the couch and fantasize about killing her. Hurting her like she hurt me. If I knew God would forgive me, I would have done it. I was too scared for God to be mad. She used to have portraits painted of me because I was her property. She would dress me up and parade me around only to make herself look good. Buying me expensive dolls I never wanted or could even play with, only for them to sit on the shelves and stare at me.

When I would get sick, which was about once or twice a year, she did not take care of me. My father would bring me tea and they would still send me to school for my perfect attendance award. One I got yearly till my senior year of high school, and then I had to be home since my grandmother died. Two weeks before I got married, because she didn't like the seating arrangements I came up with, she threatened to hit me. I said feel free and I'll call the cops. My father sat right there and witnessed it. I cannot recall if he said anything.

Once I was pregnant, my husband really started to see it and he was shocked. He saw us fighting previously through the years but he chalked it up to mother-daughter relationships. During and after my pregnancy she continued to verbally abuse me and tried to again steal the spotlight. Narc 101. Every decision I made she criticized. At my shower, which she didn't want to pay for because she said it was asking for presents, she came in late, sat in the middle, front and center. I had to sit in the back.

When my daughter was born and we had the Christening, she pulled the same shit. She went to the restaurant and sat right in front, where my husband and I should have been with our daughter. Instead we sat in the back.

I had been floundering in the new age and my life was falling apart even though I didn't realize it was. My childhood best friend died in January of 2019, then my other friend was diagnosed with cancer and my dog died. My mother was diagnosed with cancer and then seemingly the world came to a halt with the scam. I kept losing people around me, two more friends passed within weeks of the world shutting down, they were dying and I didn't get it. I just kept thinking God must think I have the strongest shoulders to go through all of this. I stood on the Jersey shore in February of 2020 and I prayed to the Blessed Mother to use me for Her will. I used to tell my husband I craved a life where I could be the person to the outside world that I was at home.

I know things got crazier after that and then at some point, I found Liana Shanti. And once I started to see everything she posted on IG, it started to make sense. Reiki was dark, IET and other things I had been doing were dark, and that is why things were happening the way they were. I started to follow on FB too and I really just felt better. Slowly I started to collect and go through all the programs one by one and I knew I needed way more. I knew things were shifting. I was not as short with my daughter or husband, I was looking at things differently, I started to feel better spiritually. I prayed more, I was able to forgive my mother for what she did before she died.

I was still angry, but I was able to forgive her with a clear heart. Mother Wound, Father Wound, Awakening Ancient Gifts, Healing Narcissistic Relationships, Illuminations, Free Womb Healing, Stress Meditation, Abundance Seminar, Lifepath Manifesting, Light Body Activation, Full and New Moon Manifesting, and then I went into the health programs.

I took the next step and started on the physical healing path on August 9, 2021 with the Heal Candida Now program. I lost a ton of weight. I stopped eating meat, went plant based and I made the most sovereign decision of my life thanks to Liana, which helped to save my soul. One year can make a radical difference. I have healed even deeper than the surface healing that happened in the first round of all of the programs.

Last December we went into contract on our home in NY. I was in a very dark place, and I knew the darkness was coming at me, but I was still not connecting the dots. I was driving and I really seriously considered driving my car off the road and ending it all. At that moment, I had Illuminations playing and Liana said something to the effect that she and Jesus see our worth as perfect and at 100% all the time. This amazing human, who I truly think is an angel, who I found on the internet, who connected me back to Jesus, sees me in my perfect form all the time.

How lucky am I? To be in her community, to have found her, to even have the knowledge that she shares to help me live the best life I can even possibly imagine. She saved my soul and my physical life that day. I can never ever thank her enough for what she teaches, shows, embodies and shares with the world. Unconditional love, which we never had, and when you finally are in contact with it, how do you react? You freak the f out.

We sold our home, moved to Florida, found our dream home and are putting in a pool. With her guidance I am stepping into my life's purpose and living in integrity, things that were only dreams.

She teaches you to break out of the cults, the programming from when you are a child, the authoritarian bullshit, to figure out what beliefs you have so you can stand firm in them. To feel into who you are as a person. To realize you like pajama pants rather than nightgowns. To get in touch with your inner children, to let them talk to you and show you who they and you ARE, not who you were molded into. The true Tiffany. The soul that I am and who I am meant to be and how I am meant to serve Jesus. To bring my gifts forth and share them with the world, to be IN SERVICE to humanity, because that is why I am here. To heal and to be in service.

I just had a dream two nights ago where I was speaking to her and I told her that I never ever want to be separated from Jesus. The teachings she shares about Jesus, the Real Jesus, are so beautiful and wonderful and empowering. I am beyond blessed to be in this community and the life proof I have is just the beginning.

Thank you, Liana, for everything you do. Words seem so tiny compared to what I feel in my heart.

I was a serial stoner since the age of 18. I smoked every day, any time I could. On my days off I would have a joint ready upon waking up and literally spend the day stoned.

I planned a life of being a stoner and wanted to be a cool mom that would smoke with her kids when old enough. When I would go back home to my parents for the holidays I would make sure I had weed available to numb out their shit, and also I needed alcohol to go with it.

It got to a point where it was just too much. Every afternoon weed and alcohol after a long day at work. I hated my job, of course I resorted to numbing on a daily basis.

Looking back at pictures of me, my face is fucked up. I cry for my inner children and I'm so, so happy I've been weed free for more than a year. Words cannot describe how grateful I am for Liana Shanti and her healing programs.

I don't know which program did it, but as soon as I started her core wound programs I just didn't feel the need anymore. It was like my soul knew it. "Yep, this is it, just exactly what we were waiting for."

Back to all stories

One of the very first posts I read on Liana Shanti's IG was about stories. Stories we start telling ourselves when we are children. One of those stories was: "My parents did the best they could." It hit me instantly. Like a lightning. I knew I had told myself this story for decades and I knew it was a lie.

What would unfold ever since that moment I could have never imagined. The lies that were uncovered, the painful realizations and revelations, the undeniable truth that I had been living in a complete fantasy and illusion my whole life. Created, perpetuated and reinforced by my own parents. So they could cover up all the shit that was going on, and maybe even more so, shield themselves from facing their own trauma and pain.

The truth is: they did NOT do the best they could. They never took accountability or responsibility for their healing. EVER. They chose to live in utter darkness and give up their souls. They never showed me what unconditional love is, self-worth, empowerment, the limitlessness of life, the fact that we always have choice, that I am inherently worthy because I was made by the Divine.

To the outside we looked like the perfect family. Big house and garden with swimming pool, never any financial issues, as both my parents had safe jobs. Several vacations a year. A huge social network. What I wasn't aware of was that providing in material ways has nothing to do with being unconditionally loved. Unconditional love didn't exist in my family, as my parents didn't receive it themselves. So how could they give it to me?

I started with the Mother Wound program. The relationship with my mother had gotten difficult and exhausting even before diving into it. I had started to distance myself a little, because I felt I was running in circles with her, never getting anywhere. However, I never knew what was actually going on. I truly believed we had a normal, actually a great relationship. I should be so grateful, right?

In the Mother Wound program Liana describes the archetypes of mothers, their traits and patterns. When she discussed the narcissistic mother, it was like a wall collapsed within seconds. To every 30 traits or so I instantly remembered several situations. My mother a high level narc? I wasn't able to move physically for days after this realization. My body started to purge. The tsunami started to break.

Ever since, it has been a cycle of new realizations, purging, grieving, integrating, and healing. A never ending cycle of truths and layers that my inner children had been carrying for so long were finally allowed to emerge. The truth about my father not being my biological father, about having been sexually abused by him and others, about the circumstances that led to my cerebral palsy and that my mother tried desperately to cover up, and so much more.

Living with constant drama, soul-draining jobs, utter fear and anxiety towards men, massive insecurity, gossip, alcohol, cigarettes, toxic food, fear of expressing my truth, desperate urge to please other people.

What Liana Shanti and her teachings mean to me and my life, and how they have changed my perception of reality – and continue to – is hard to put into one IG post. Her teachings have not only saved me from a life in darkness, toxicity, deception, numbing and so much more, but she showed my soul the way out. She laid out the red carpet called Jesus, with the door leading out of the wheel of reincarnation on this earth.

Never dragging or pushing, never any expectations or rules to oblige to. She is standing at the side, patiently guiding, encouraging, empowering, consoling, clarifying and teaching.

However, I have to walk the walk and step through that door myself. No one is doing it for me. Full self-accountability and self-responsibility.

And this red carpet is mostly not a shiny sparkly walk in the park, especially at the beginning of this healing journey. It's nothing but a shit show, muckraking, falling down, crawling to move forward anyhow, tears and sadness for what could have been but wasn't, confusion about next steps, darkness constantly throwing shit in the way.

I had been immersed in the New Age for quite a while and I learned and improved some things. However, the level of RESULTS and LIFEPROOF with Liana Shanti's teachings is unmatched.

And I have only just begun my journey. I feel more peace, confidence, authenticity, courage, gratitude every day. I live in the deep knowing that I am able to overcome every challenge and layer that is still ahead.

I moved to a much more relaxed and light- and sun-filled country. I quit my old job, and am now able to flexibly self-schedule my relaxing freelancer jobs while I am creating my own business. I am much more aware of my body and what it is telling me, and I listen. I cut out my entire toxic and abusive family without feeling guilt or shame.

I can't really explain why, with every fiber of my being, heart and soul, I know that THIS is the way. I just do. I knew it right from the start and nothing in the universe can convince me otherwise. I am beyond grateful for this trust.

Liana, I love you with my heart and soul. I will be forever and ever grateful that you chose this path and being the voice of Jesus at this time, which is often not easy for you as well. Thank you for everything. In love and gratitude always.
