Testimonials
What they are Saying …
Since the very beginning of last year, I started experiencing major headaches (migraines) among other symptoms which forced me to go numerous times to ER to find out that they could not do anything for me.
Desperately looking for alternative medicine, I found Lea Longo, whom agreed to help me through meditations which was something new to me. I wasn’t sure if I was going to accept her help, but once we finished our phone conversation, I was totally convinced that Lea was going to help me.
Well a few weeks later going through with doing meditations twice a day and with private coaching, my health has improved and now it’s been more than a year and my migraines are history. My gratitude to you Lea…. –Daniel P
J’ai eu le privilège de te rencontrer!!!! Tu as réussi à me faire voyager en dedans de moi ,merci pour la douceur que tu dégages être à tes côtés et se faire bercer par ta voix angélique est cadeau précieux. – Doudja Mekamcha
Listening to Lea’s voice is like being called to your favorite place and enjoying the sweetness it delivers.
Gary Goldberg – IN the SPIRIT RADIO
Meeting Lea for the first time was enchanting. Such a beautiful vibrating energy and such a powerful voice. I personnaly can’t hold a note, but last night, I couldn’t help but sing and I sang with my hearth and I loved it!… I loved being part of the group, singing the mantras together, one voice, one heart. Namaste!

Satnam everyone?❤️
I am Emmanuelle. I’ve have been Lea’s student for over a year now, taking private lessons with her nearly every week.There are too many words for me to explain my feeling of gratitude for having Lea as a life coach.
But I’ll try to do it the best I can. :p
The teacher shows up when the student is ready. That couldn’t be more true in my case.
One of the most determining event of my life was my first meeting with Lea, which lead to me entrusting her with the sensitive and complex depth of my inner self. Without judgment, with such gentleness and compassion, she created a safe space where I could expose and sort out what was in the darkest corners of my life.Then the magic happened. It’s like I woke up from a long slumber. I got out of the loop that I was living for the last 10 years. The beauty is that now I get to wake up every day and I get to chose which dream to experience. I am manifesting my dreams instead of chasing them. I am master of my manifested reality.
Prior to meeting Lea, my mind was so scattered, my emotions out of control, and my energy was going everywhere, anywhere literally. Now, (most of the time ?) I’m calm, focused, inspired, centered. She taught me powerful ways to sooth my mental chatter, manage my stress and emotions and how to use the power of affirmations to set my mind for success.
She taught me breath work, Naad Yoga or chanting mantras, Meditation, Kundalini Yoga and numerous other ways to instantly stop my anxiety (or anger, fear and any overwhelming emotions) and bring my mind to a perfect state of balance, basically on command.
She showed me how to just BREATHE and BE. Because the rest is just stories anyway.
She guided me through authentic reconnection experiences and I can honestly say that after a couple months of consistent practice, during many private meditation sessions with her, I enter states of transcendantal awareness and true bliss, producing in me extraordinarily profound transformation of consciousness. I experienced samādhi.
She is like a mirror reflecting upon you the greatest self you can be, especially when you can’t see it. She helped me realized I AM loved and cared for by something far Greater.
Rain or shine, and through every storm that I have been through since I met her, Lea has been for me like a lighthouse shining brightly from the shore, guiding me through the fog of my mind and through my darkest moonless nights, ensuring that I find a safe entry to harbor. Doing my best to keep my ship steadily on its course, I now ride confidently every wave the ocean of life has coming my way. Yes, of course its not easy and smooth all the time, some waves hit me harder and I get shaken around quite a bit. But I never sink, I simply grab a bucket I empty my boat and get prepared to face the next wave! ( I mean I empty my mind through meditation and yoga lol ) And I sail away..
My journey of self realization and self mastery has been incredibly challenging and this exceptional woman has been fully present for me every. single. time. since she entered my life. She helped me realize and believe that I am innately wise, kind, strong and unbreakable. She taught me how to recognize when I am wrong and skillfully guided me so I find my own ways to make it right. She gave me tools to truly let go of pains and traumas that were imprisoning me for years. She showed me that by soothing the mind and allowing the light back into my heart, I would think clearer and have an easier time focusing on what matters. And it’s true.
The universe delivers a bounty as soon as you let things go.It’s one of the greatest truth she taught me.
Leading by example, she inspired me to become a graceful, empowered, confident, kind and and one of a kind woman. She showed me how to be a leader, to be a peace maker, to have a pure heart, to be a patient and present mother, to be merciful, grateful, blissfull and to always listen to my inner guidance. I am experiencing how to good it feels to surrender and dedicate every single one of my thoughts and actions to something greater than myself.
I feel free because I trust that everything is unfolding as it’s supposed to.Among the myriad of things that I am grateful for, I thank God everyday for the strength to follow her teachings.
Seriously if you’re stuck in your life, and need to move on from your old story, and start a brand new chapter in the present moment, just do yourself the favor and give her a call! Otherwise you’ll find yourself saying : “if only I knew this before, what was I waiting for to live my life to its greatest potential?!“
Namaste y’all ✌️ Emma
Beautiful experience! I’m grateful to take part in Lea’s kirtans and meditations…. thank you to her, Rad, Joseph and all who were there. I have the cds and enjoy doing kirtan singing anywhere, especially in the car!
Kate Luthi
Lea, Many Sincere thanks for the music. We have played it, and think that it is well worth having tracks from the CD included into our playlists. The character of the music style presented gives this CD a unique feel, with an individual personality presented inside it’s contents. Great work, and we sure look forward to hearing from you in the future.
Graham J Barclay – Soundwave FM
Thank you for the wonderful and blissful experience of chanting mantras with you yesterday in our private group! You are simply amazing, soft and filled with love and compassion. I really appreciated the experience and still floating with the flow of this beautiful energy! Namaste Montreal Kirtan Group
Isabelle Brien
This wonderfully adventurous album breaks new ground left and right. Who would have thought that smooth jazz and sacred mantras would combine so well. Only an artist as talented and authentic as Lea Longo could pull it off!
GuruGaneshaBand
At first I was timid but when I let myself go and go into it I felt free…free of all my ideas and misconceptions…free to be me fully alive in the moment as it was. What a truly incredible experience!! I must do this again soon!
Marie-Francoise
I Bow To You Heartfelt, calming and exciting all at the same time? That scarcely describes the new album by Lea Longo called Zen Voyage. The music is a medium of ancient Sanskrit mantras sung sweetly and delivered with exceptional melody. Although my Western ears still have difficulty with the repetitiveness of Eastern music, I was never bored throughout this remarkable album.
Canadian Lea Longo is not only a talented singer-songwriter, but also a dedicated yoga instructor and Mantra Meditation facilitator. Her unique music appears on television and film and she is the recipient of many international music prizes. Lea’s voice is soft and gentle, a bit reminiscent of R&B artist Sade. The music, Eastern flavored with a medium tempo, is muted at times allowing the fervor of the human voice to dominate, but in this case, it is not a bad thing. Lea shares the metaphysical spotlight with co-writer “Radical” Rad Crasto, guitarist and producer.
Namaste, from the Hindi phrase, “I bow to you” is a well-known international greeting. Read More…

What is Yoga of Sound ? (Bhakti Yoga, Naada Yoga)
Mantra or Yoga of Sound (Naada Yoga ) is a “musical meditative ” yoga, a musical expression of the soul. We chant “mantras” in a kirtan. It is a “yoga” of sound, where we use a call and response experience. It is not about the musical aspect but the heart aspect that leads us to a peaceful, meditative state.
Chanting ancient mantras and prayers allows us to tune our whole being, mind, body, and Spirit to the One Source, to the One God.
“Kirtan” is a Sanskrit word for group musical expression of the Divine Spirit within. Chanting together as one, we raise the level of our own vibration to a high spiritual state where we can actually feel and experience our Divine nature. Chanting is possibly the most effective means of directly experiencing our spiritual nature. It is a meditation practice…

What is Naad Yoga?
Naad Yoga is a “Sound” Yoga where we use our unique voice to connect within ourselves.The power of chant /using our voice involves bridging the two worlds of humanity and eternity. It allows a person to touch a deeper world that is organic and flowing. Chant has no set rhythm, and is based on the breath in combination with tonal patterns of sustained vowels. To create vibrations that elevate is the goal of Naad Yoga.Using mantra to create these vibrations is the highest form of self-communication.
Is Chanting easy and why do we Chant?
Chanting is an easy tool because you can chant anywhere—out loud or silently—and change your state of being. When we chant ancient, sacred and uplifting mantras that inherently have a high frequency, our tongue touches the roof of the mouth in a very specific manner.
This creates a chain reaction resulting in a change in the chemical composition of the brain. When the chemistry of the brain is balanced, our state of mind and outlook on life improves dramatically. We simply feel better.In Kundalini Yoga, we use a technology that is called Shabd Guru.
What is Shabd Guru ?
Shabd Guru is a very special sound current that uses the technology of the Naad Yoga. Therefore it is not just any sound, but a primal sound. Each primal sound is a unit that is pronounced by a particular part of the mouth. When we form a word and we speak it, we utilize the 84 meridian points on the roof of the mouth to stimulate the hypothalamus to change the chemistry of the brain. Not every combination of sounds or words will create patterns of healing or wholeness – therefore the Shabd Guru is unique.In the science of Naad, there are three key elements that enhance the experience. Rhythm, projection and pronunciation. Maintaining a precise rhythm of the mantra as well as maintaining the correct number of beats with the mantra is crucial to its effectiveness. For example, many Kundalini mantras are chanted in eight beats. Any mantra chanted with eight beats is an Ashtang Mantra. Example: RA MA DA SA- SA SAY SO HUNG – ( Siri Gaitri Mantra)

The use of Mantras for Chanting
We use mantras which are sacred texts when we chant. Mantras can excite the emotions and give suggestions to the mind and therefore bringing calm to the mind and spirit. Mantras affect both the one who sings them and the one who hears them.
The word “ mantra” comes from Sanskrit word “mantrana” which means advice or suggestion. When we chant in a private session, we work with both the body and the voice with a focus on deep breathing and relaxation exercises aimed at releasing vocal and physical tensions and explore chanting with traditional and effective techniques for improved health, vitality and projection…

More on Nada Yoga
While the modern world may be just waking up to the music healing therapy, ancient Indian scriptures have a well-documented technique called ‘nada yoga’ — or the science of utilising sound vibrations and yogic asanas (postures) to achieve ‘salvation’.According to research, nada yoga has enormous power to heal. It is believed that Indian classical music has very positive effects on human health and behaviour.“Recent studies on the subject showed that music along with yoga can heal disorders like hypertension, arthritis, problems related to upper or lower parts of the body, mental stress and tension,”
