My story
My name is Renate Lechler and I was born in Stuttgart. I discovered the world of art when I was very young. I came to Florence in 1976 with my boyfriend of the time. I was 24 and I fell in love with this part of Italy. I have lived in Tuscany since then. All I needed for utter happiness was a house in the country, to become a nest for our animals and us.
After 10 years, thanks to a gift from my parents, I was able to purchase an estate about 16 kilometers from Florence. It was love at first sight! The owners gave me the chance to sleep in their house before buying it, but I was so excited at having found the house of my dreams, that I didn’t sleep a wink.
It was here that I began building my paradise. Many years passed and with the passage of time, a new man from Cuba arrived. He became my husband in 2015. He came with three children who are now part of our love story. Those three young hearts were so quick to open towards me that I couldn’t resist all the love they bestowed on me. For the last few years, we have been living between Italy and Cuba where we have another home. However, I feel at home here with all my heart and soul and spend most of my time in the Florentine hills.
I’ve travelled the world extensively, at first following my multiple interests as a fashion designer with collections and exhibits, even of my own silk paintings. I have also been a dog breeder, especially of Belgian Sheppard dogs and have been called on many fronts. Cultivating the passion and enthusiasm that I was born with, I was still young and nothing was ever too much for me!
After many years, a point of change came when I left the fashion world behind me. Even though it had given me great joy and success, I was ready to dedicate myself to the holistic dimension of wellbeing and personal growth. I’ve also majored in many areas of this field. I am a therapist who works with the voice and with the Soul Voice R technique, I can contribute to alleviating soul block as well as emotional, psychic and physical blocks.
In the same period (especially for my beloved dogs) I attended various training courses, from kinesiology to telepathic communication for animals and TellingtonTTouch.
In all these years of intense study and working with art, music and treatments for increasing wellbeing and spirituality, I’ve reached the point in which I can connect and use all of these things together. I’m really happy to have been able to fulfill my mission and my passion in this life!
As always and whenever possible, improvements on the house and surrounding large Garden Park have been made, thus progressively rendering them more beautiful, welcoming and functional to my purpose.
On the wave of the dream, for example, I’ve created a bio lake or natural swimming pool. It wasn’t easy, especially to get the necessary machinery to pass through the property gates. It was a question of centimeters! But, as if by a miracle everything worked out!!! Now we can all enjoy the freshness and light that water gives us. There is also a special area in the lake, where new generations of Koi carp live, (in Japan they are considered fish of abundance and happiness) which makes the lake even more harmonious and enchanting. All this has transformed this estate into a magnificent place to dream and relax.
In the meantime and precisely on December 21st, 2012, I had begun to discover the ORBS who are beings of Light, among my photographs. On that very famous day I was in Mexico at the foot of a Maya pyramid. At moments like that, the energy is very high and lots of people took photographs with ORBS. It was the beginning of a great adventure for me.
I’m sure that some of you have taken a photo with a luminous spot in it, but maybe eliminated it without realizing what it was. I instead, have taken thousands of photos through the years, containing ORBS. From my experiences with the ORBS, I’ve written a book called ORBS, Symphonies of Light and have set up a spectacular permanent exhibit in the park dedicated to them.
I travel to fairs in Italy many times a year to present the ORBS to the public and hold conferences and seminars, to get people to know them better. On my YouTube channel, you can watch the video of “Giardino di ORBS e Cristalli” (ORBS and Crystal Garden). There are many other videos around these themes too.
At home I act as a guide for the ORBS exhibit and organize one-day seminars for groups of a minimum of 4 people. Another very popular seminary is the one dedicated to Telepathic Communication with Animals, which lasts a day and a half, likewise with a minimum of 4 participants.
All these experiences are a great help to me in continuing my research as a wellbeing operator for people, animals and the environment.
