I am not here to fix you or stand above you.
I am simply here to walk beside you
as you begin to remember who you are.
WHAT I AM HERE FOR
I am Leila Li — an old soul with the heart of a child. Rooted in China/the East, shaped by the West. Since childhood, I’ve felt the whisper of the ancient — a quiet knowing that I came here to carry the wisdom (as well as the deepest longing) of my ancestors and find the true home of my soul – not just this little world I was put in. Even through the hardest survival moments in China, a part of me never forgot. And as I began to wake up and remember more, life became devotion and service — to the ancient, to the Tao, to Nature, to the Life Force that moves through all things.
I’ve lived in five countries and walked between worlds — from corporate boardrooms to silent ceremonies, from ecstatic dance floors to the stillness of the mountains, from simple joy of a child to the dark night of the soul. I’ve tasted both light and shadow, and learned to weave them into one — in softness and in wildness, in grace and in truth. Because I have a taste of the orgasmic beauty of the totality of life myself, and simply want to share that through the medicines I carry, with whoever it resonates with and are ready for.
I walk this devotional path as a sacred mirror and as a human being myself including all what comes in this intense, humble but beautiful life — holding space for beauty, truth, remembering and full expression of your soul. Through the medicines I carry — touch, ritual, ceremony, loving presence — I hold space for you to return to your own essence.
My work is not about doing more, but about coming home.
To your breath.
To your body.
To your truth.
I walk beside you as a mirror, a companion, and a reminder that you already are what you seek.

ABOUT THIS WORK / MY APPROACH
My offerings are invitations — into the body, into truth, into presence. Every offering I create carries my essence and these core gifts — each space is intended to be alive, poetic, and rooted in embodied presence. We will start from clear intentions, trust building, deep listening, then you are invited to step into the unknown with me where everything can happen (within boundaries) and nothing needs to happen.
Deeply inspired by eastern lineages of Tantra, Taoism, the Sufi Path, Shamanic Plant Medicines and Temple Arts, that I have been carrying from ancestors and studying for many years, I weave spaces that are ceremonial, alive, and deeply human. What I offer is born from lived and remembered experiences that goes beyond this human life, and held with humility, honesty, and care. All parts of you are welcome here – in all your fears, tenderness, power, longing, joy and your truth.
My work is Trauma-informed (currently in a 2-year professional certified program with NARM institute), not just because it’s trendy to say these days. Supported and backed up by years of various trauma trainings across perspectives (somatic, spiritual and psychological) with experiences on building safer containers, prevention, trauma awareness as well as first-aid somatic tools.
I am still learning too, from various teachers, shamans and life itself over the last decade. An old soul in a young lifetime carrying stories, sensitivities, ancestral/cosmic threads and unshakable faith for the awakening of humanity, each one of us included. Some as gifts, some as wounds, all as teachers.
The Way of Remembering: A 3-Month 1:1 Immersive Journey
I feel honoured to support your growth and transformation through an immersive journey/container to RETURN and REMEMBERING with the integration of some of the most potent and powerful tools, such as Tantra, Tantric Bodywork, (Optional) Plant Medicines Journeys, Taoist Wisdom, and Sacred Loving Presence.
This is especially for those who are ready to break through into your essence. This is especially for those who are ready for continuity. For those who want to be held over time. Also for those who have experienced my other offerings and feel the call to deep dive in a private, safe and sacred container.
Each month invites a new portal — Body, Heart and Soul — to return you to what’s real and what truly matters. Through In-person Sessions (can also be online alternatives), Online Trauma-informed Sessions, online Guided Practices, Creative Soul Work and Integration, you’ll root deeper into your essence, soften into feeling, and awaken the beauty of being. You will likely feel less need to perform or compare or leak life energy, and instead remembering more of what you are here for. More love and life force energy can flow through to help you co-create and manifest with life, more effortlessly.
On this journey, you will start to remember:
the wisdom of your body as a living temple,
the innocence and truth of your heart,
the strength that comes from being fully yourself,
the deeper love that holds you, beyond all stories,
and your soul and soul purpose – your longings, gifts and service to this world.
I am giving everything I have got into this immersive journey to support you.
→ Private intimate journeys (recommended in-person+online, can also be online only)

LOVE Ritual – A Valentine’s Ritual for All Lovers of Life
(Free, Online, Live, with Leila Li & Ralf Marzen)
February 14th — the day of Love (Valentine’s Day), and also my birthday — and I feel so excited and honoured to invite all your lovers of LIFE to celebrate this day together. To celebrate LOVE together – through a free, live, online LOVE Ritual – a love journey from within.
This gathering is very dear to our hearts.
For the first time, I will be showing up together with my beloved partner, Ralf Marzen, who is also a great facilitator and teacher in the awakening spaces, to share our transmission as well to co-create a Ritual in devotion to Love — not only the love between two people, but the Love that lives within us, moves through us, and connects us all. To also send our prayers to this world together.
Deeply inspired by Rumi, the Sufi hearts, and the Beloved that whispers through all of life, we come together as Lovers, as Companions on this path. What we share arises from our lived life journey, our sacred union, and our deepest heart desire to bring more love to more people.
This ritual is for all Lovers of Life.
You are welcome whether you are single or partnered, whether you come alone or with a beloved, a friend, or simply with your own open heart. Love is not something we must seek outside — it is already here, waiting to be remembered, from within.

TESTIMONIALS
“In my Tantric bodywork session with Leila I experienced profound healing. Leila met my life force in an extremely attuned and respectful way. I felt safe with her as she guided me on a deep healing journey into my inner world. Throughout the session I felt deeply seen, supported and held in her loving feminine presence. I have never experienced such life changing shifts in just one session. I’m amazed at the power of this work.” – Ralph
“I had an amazing shamanic journey guided by Leila. Her trustworthy and nurturing approach supported me to set my intentions and safely embark on my first full-dose, psilocybin-assisted journey. Thanks to the ceremony’s set-up and her caring presence, I was able to fully let go and be guided by the “medicine” on a mind-expanding trip unlike any other. The psychedelic magic truffle journey itself is beyond words, but it is safe to say that it left me with a rewired self. I highly recommend Leila Li for her profound understanding, her guidance and her ability to create a truly safe environment.” – Peter
“Leila guided me through a deeply healing plant medicine journey. We co-created a space that was safe, expansive and sacred. In her role guides, she intuitively danced with me; at times leaning in to offering support, and at times leaning back giving only her trust that I had all I needed within me. She will always have my gratitude. My life is richer both for the experience she guided me through, and for having met someone willing to share the compassion, vulnerability and humour she brings to her own journey. Thank you very much dear Leila!” – Anya
“I had the opportunity to receive several bodywork sessions from Leila, and she has the rare gift of being able to tap into something deeper than the personal when giving her sessions. She’s very attuned and sensitive, especially compared to what is perceived as normal here in the West and the Netherlands. She helped me find deeper layers of freedom and surrender in myself that I hadn’t accessed in a long time. I can wholeheartedly recommend her work.” – Timo
“This edition with Leila was a different cup of tea as it also opened up my body and energy in the body. As preparation and to become more aware of my body we had a preparation meeting with a check-in on current state of mind and my intentions. Followed by a bodywork session. It was a wonderful experience and really opened up the energy in my body which also told me there was a lot to open up and leave behind.” – Marc
“The days leading up to my session I felt both confident and hesitant. When I arrived at Leila’s place a serene calmness came over me. Her energy had a peaceful effect on my state of being and I felt carried and safe. My journey was one of the most profound journeys that I have had in years. Full of Joy, bliss and just being zen with everything. Leila’s peaceful energy affected my journey. I felt a oneness of the energy of the accommodation, Leila and myself, and experienced an energising rewiring of the nervous system like I have never experienced before. (Like I upgraded into a super saiyan state, haha. 2 weeks later now and I can still feel it.) It was wonderful to have Leila by my side to help me process my experience. Thanks Leila, for supporting me on this beautiful path.” — Fonz
“This tea ceremony and meditation was a highlight of my weeklong trip ! Leila was very welcoming and the zen like space she prepared was calming and inviting. I appreciated the thoughtful conversations we exchanged about ourselves, our values, and stories/goals of our past, present, and future lives. This experience is not like others, and the flow of the session is made by and molded to the interaction between the participants and Leila. I highly recommend this experience to those who are seeking something different, something grounding yet light hearted and nourishes the soul. ” — Cammy
“I really enjoyed meeting Leila, I felt her energy resonating with mine. I didn’t know what to expect but I knew I could trust her. I felt her warmth and loving energy, and it help me to let go and receive. I enjoyed having a tea and a check in to begin. It was a bit uncomfortable at first to let go of my clothes but I felt safe enough with her to be able to do it. During the session it was always very gentle and I could release a lot of tensions and old energies. I felt supported. And at the end I felt much relaxed, more aligned and definitely lighter. ” — Stephanie
“Very grateful for Leila’s bodywork sessions that helped me integrate shadow aspects of my sexuality. On this confusing journey, it’s a blessing to have a kindhearted guide like Leila to support me thru the twists and turns.” — Anonymous
“I have received a beautiful and tender healing session from Leila. Her non-judgmental, soft and skilled presence allowed me to sink deep and to be taken care off. This experience has been paying off a lot, in the weeks (and probably months to come!) after. It helped me to break patterns that no longer served me, and to open up some old layers of grief and anger that needed healing. It was a profound experience with a lot of care. Thank you Leila, please keep sharing your gift.” — Tessa
“My body work session with Leila was wonderful. Her powerful presence mixed in with her soft touch and compassionate awareness creates the perfect healing container to relax into being and expand through everything showing to be seen and felt.” — Kees
“When I came to Leila I was tired, low on energy and with a very foggy mind. Already in the middle of the session it felt like the sun shining through the clouds in my mind and the flows of energy in my body. By the end of the session I felt very alive and rejuvenated, my mind was back to normal sharp and clear, and the feelings much more intense..A few days after the session I started a ten day Vipassana meditation and I felt that the session with Leila really helped me to stay more focused and open through the course. So I can highly recommend Leila as a great guide in holding this beautiful work!” — Sergey
“The day of the medicine journey was a wonderful day. Leila’s ceremonial space bathed in lush sunshine which made the atmosphere even more special. Leila prepared a tea ceremony, followed by a silent walk in the park to become one with my ‘nature’. Back in the ceremonial space we discussed my intentions and I took the medicine. It was a beautiful and at the same time confronting experience which gave me a lot of insights about myself and the world around us, as well a deep insights in universal wisdom and interconnectedness.
The safe space Leila created with her energy as wel as the music she played highthened the experience. Not only by the music she choose, but also the instruments she played herself like the shamanic drum made it genuine shamanic journey. I would highly recommend Leila.” — Marc
“You are really really good at this. I would not want to do this with anyone else at that time. It’s perfectly right for me to experience this with you. You have a high integrity – you know what you’re doing, you know the breathing, the pressure points, you know when to talk and when not to talk, when to wait and when to move. Tyank you, you have a very presice and soft timing and flow. That’s really particular for you. That’s what makes you. I can see you have done a lot of inner work. You have been here and there which gives more depth and spaciousness. Thank you!!!” — Monica
“I gave this experience to my friend as a birthday gift. We both live in Amsterdam and I was looking for something special – and found it. I recommend this to anyone who is ready to enter their welcoming place with an open mind and dive into ecstatic music while painting by putting emotions and feelings on paper. I had no particular expectations, but I was impressed how wholesome the experience felt. Thanks Leila & Bart, for your guidance, time and being!” — Linda
“I really appreciated the way Leila facilitated the overall flow of the retreat with lightness and grace, making sure that the group felt heard and that there was clarity as to what was happening and when. She seemed very well organised and super friendly and positive. I felt that Leila was very skilled in keeping the container of the retreat and guiding the flow of things through her words.”
“Very good space holder, good listening skill, I know I could trust Leila and I felt good, safe with her presence around.”
— Anonymous
“I had the pleasure of working with Leila where she did digital marketing and data analytics. Her impressive work ethic, strong competence and affable personality made it a joy to collaborate with her on projects. Leila’s curiosity and her ability to understand the bigger picture was instrumental in her driving the right digital strategy and achieving the desired results for the assets. If given an opportunity I would be thrilled to work with her again.” — Effi Foods
