SWIPE TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT
Through a series of coincidences, I heard about Lesley and her varied modalities for healing. From the outset, with Lesley’s positive guidance, any reticence I might have had soon gave way to a strong feeling of trust and peace. Through her, I have experienced tremendous healing — physically, emotionally and spiritually. The kindness and compassion shown to me by Lesley have been an inspiration to me personally. Lesley is truly a blessing in my life and I will forever be grateful to her.

Dear Lesley, After spending several hours online researching places in the GTA where I could learn to be a Reiki practitioner, I finally landed on your website. When I did, I knew that my search had ended. Though the photos of the Cedar Cabin are what initially lead me to contact you, I was so pleased with how I felt the moment we connected. As soon as I arrived for my session, I immediately felt calm and at peace in your presence. The photos on your website are so beautiful, but honestly they don’t do the place its true justice because you can’t visually express how you FEEL inside this place! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience. You are very wise and insightful and I loved how you encouraged me to use my own intuition. The experience of being attuned to Reiki was absolutely incredible and life-changing and I truly appreciate your guidance and continued support. I look forward to doing further work with you and I wish you continued success with the Cedar Cabin!

I have had the pleasure of receiving healing from Lesley at her absolutely stunning, charming, and energetically balanced Cedar Cabin for many years now. When I first met Lesley, I instantly felt a sense of love, health, and healing emanating from her presence. She has such a kind and gentle soul, yet powerful presence during a healing session. She truly is gifted at what she does and is whole heartedly living her dharma! She has been a true guide in my journey and I am so blessed and grateful to have such a magnificent person in my life! In gratitude and love, LT.G.

Dear Lesley, I want to thank you so very much for all of your help when it came to helping me deal with my emotional health and wellbeing. You went to so much trouble to see that I would breakthrough my limiting fears so that I could reach my maximum potential both personally and professionally. You made sure I really understood the process. My childhood issues have kept me back a lifetime and I have had a breakthrough, truly in part, because of you Lesley. You are always calm and helpful long after the session is finished. I know that you care and take the time to facilitate an opening for healing. You always treat me like I am important and never feel rushed. I just want you to know that I really, truly appreciate all of your help, and almost two years later I am still with you and you have come to really mean so much to me. Thank you again.

I am pleased to offer my congratulations to Lesley Gatto on the launch of her new website. Lesley is a skilled and intuitive healer and a warm compassionate person with a wide array of knowledge of many healing modalities. During the five years I have known Lesley I have enjoyed treatments with reflexology, acupressure, and Reiki, but the healing I received goes beyond the parameters of any of the three. I always leave with the feeling that something deep, profound and wonderful has happened. I am sure that if you choose to use Lesley’s services you will be completely satisfied.

Dear Lesley, Your special gifts extent from your soul into the healing room. You set and hold space for me in the most welcoming and loving way and the ambiance you create feels so safe, warm and loving that I feel I can be me and connect with my Higher Self in ways I cannot achieve on my own. I can allow myself to be most vulnerable and completely surrender to the process and invite healing energy into my body, mind, spirit and soul. Over the past few years, you have helped me get through the biggest hurdles of my life. I have transformed and healed so many relationships, including the one with myself, and as a result, I have co-created the life of my dreams. I have grown so fast spiritually but I do not remember any of it being painful or too overwhelming. With your open and giving heart and gentleness, you have helped make it all seem so easy. Your compassion and heartfelt intentions are at the core of your practice and I feel it every time I am in a session with you. Thank you for sharing your unique gifts with me. Thanks for helping me connect with the deepest, darkest and brightest parts of me so I could heal deeply and meaningfully. I have learned to love all those parts that make me who I am. You have made walking along my spiritual path something easy and manageable. Today, I feel like a completely different person, a person I love deeply because I can honestly say, and for the frist time in my life, that I am truly me and love who you have helped me become. I am forever grateful for you.”

It was 7 months ago when my happy world was tested. I found myself on the, “at risk prenatal floor” of my local hospital. The doctors were empathetic as they confirmed what I already knew, my baby had died. They detailed my options and gave their condolences. It was a heavy day; a dark day, except for one ray of hope. While waiting to be seen, a proud new father came in to the waiting room filled with expectant parents and me. In his arms he carried the most beautiful bundle of life and despite my own hurt I couldn’t help but feel joyful for him. He struck up a conversation introducing himself and his newborn and then asked why I was there. I simply replied that my husband and I were trying to start a family of our own. I didn’t want to share the full truth. At this point he got very animated and shared with me that his wife had been going to see a woman in Kettleby and perhaps she could help me to. He wrote all of Lesley’s information down on a napkin and thanking him I tucked it in my wallet. Leaving the hospital that day with all my options laid out before me and with decisions to be made the one thing I knew for sure was that I would be contacting Lesley. It is a choice that I have never regretted! These past 7 months Lesley has shared her healing gifts with me. From Reiki to Reflexology to Shamanic healing she used all her knowledge to not only address my physical needs but my spiritual needs as well. Lesley’s gentle, sensitive spirit combined with her knowledge guided me on my journey to physical and spiritual wholeness. She has truly been a blessing to me. And now it’s my turn to be, “the man in the waiting room”… give Lesley a call! You won’t regret it!

When I visited Lesley for the first time I didn’t know what to expect. After sitting down with her I instantly felt comfortable and relaxed. Not only does the atmosphere at the cabin help clear your mind and feel at ease, Lesley made it clear she was ready to listen and be there for me. Working with Lesley was a pleasant, calming and moving experience. I learned many different things that I didn’t know could be brought to the surface and be healed naturally. Without the help of Lesley I’m not sure I would have all that I do today. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to work with Lesley. I would recommend Lesley to my friends and family as now she has become part of ours.”

It is so rare and special to find a practitioner who is a true healer. Someone who is intuitively connected to spirit as well as extremely grounded and someone who genuinely cares for each and every person she works with. I have had some of my most profound and powerful healing sessions with Lesley. She gently and lovingly helps you to connect to the powerful healer that is within you and she guides you as you heal and rebalance.
I refer people to Lesley without hesitation because I know that anyone who works with her will have an incredibly positive experience. Every time I talk to people who have seen her I inevitably hear about how kind and wise she is, what a powerful healer she is and how intuitively guided she is in what she does and I smile because I have experienced this first hand with her too. I am grateful to know her and feel so blessed to have her in our community as she continues to make such a powerful difference in the lives of so many. Thank you Lesley for everything you do, for living your hearts song, and for shining so brightly.”

I was blessed to discover Lesley during my search for a place to take my Reiki Level 1 course. After reviewing many different possibilities, my search ended when I “stumbled” upon Lesley’s website! Her warmth, kindness and vast knowledge of so many different healing modalities exuded from her words on each page of her site. I thought to myself, “Wow, she is the real deal! THIS is the place for me to take the Reiki level 1 course!” During our first phone conversation, all my initial thoughts about Lesley’s amazing abilities and wonderful personality were confirmed! It was apparent that she possessed all the qualities (and many more) that I was searching for in a healer! Patient, kind, knowledgeable, understanding, non-judgemental, full of integrity and the list goes on. I took both Reiki Level 1 and Level 2 with Lesley and was so completely blown away by the life-changing event that it is a challenge to put the magnificence of my experience into words. It all begins with the calm, peaceful feeling that came over me upon entering the cabin, which was like no other experience I’ve had. I immediately felt at home. Lesley made me feel so welcome, and exudes such warmth, kindness, patience and genuine care for her clients and patients. What a kind soul! In addition to all of these wonderful qualities, Lesley really knows her stuff. I was amazed at the many beautiful gifts of healing she possesses and the gentle, loving delivery of the valuable insights she shares with you. I am so happy that I found Lesley and am looking forward to continuing my healing journey with her. She is the absolute best and I am so grateful she is a part of my life!

I have been looking for a Reiki master for a few good years and even if I got several good referrals somehow I did not follow through with registering. However, one day talking to a friend and mentioning my interest in Reiki she said she knew somebody; immediately I felt compelled to ask for details, emailed Lesley and registered for the Reiki 1 course. And what a course it was: just like a dream come true where all your questions are answered before you even ask. I started practicing right after the course with success and keep helping those in need. Noticed positive changes in my life and feel every day in every way better, healthier and happier. And now, after the Reiki 2 course, I expect my life my life to be even better and happier as I follow my personal path knowing the Lesley is always available to offer loving advice or answer my questions. I find Lesley to be one of the rare healers who can talk the talk and walk the walk: sincere, spiritual, modest, blessed with many gifts, patient, compassionate and warm, not enough words to describe both the spiritual teacher, practitioner and friend. Thank you for everything, Lesley.

I’ve been seeing Lesley off and on for a number of years now, usually for reiki. After every session I always feel a definite calm and a sense of purpose. These sessions are particularly great in those times when my life is so hectic, so scattered, I loose track of myself. But I particularly enjoyed seeing Lesley during my pregnancy. A combination of reiki, reflexology, and acupressure really helped my pregnancy symptoms, ranging from sciatica to sinus pain, on a physical level, but also helped me emotionally de-stress over the well being of my child and, rather, use my time to feel connected with my baby. It was a really rewarding experience. Lesley seems to possess a heightened intuition, knowing when to keep going, and when to stop; I have complete trust for her as a practitioner and a person in general.
