About Us
Welcome to Soul Light Emporium
Soul Light Emporium moved to this new name in 2022.
Prior to this it traded as Renascent (Founded in 1991) & Renascent College. Dedicated to awakening and nourishing the soul in classes, clinic, services & products.
Renascent is a family run business that was founded in 1991 by Lesley Mitchell (nee Antonoff). Lesley was later one of the founders and directors of The Australian College of Feng Shui & Geomancy, worked with many other organisations and well known people around the world, authored 11 books, worked on television documentaries into past life regressions and travelled extensively around the world teaching and studying.
She gave her 1st international lecture series at 17 years old and began teaching personal development and healing classes and a natural health clinic. Shortly after this, she discovered a need to find good quality products for her own use, both in the clinic, classes and in Feng Shui consultations. From this students and our practitioners requested that they too could purchase these products for use in their own work, hence a retail aspect to our business was began. Shopkeepers then requested that they may be able to purchase our products for resale in their shops and clinics, hence a wholesale aspect was begun. It was only a short matter of time before this took off and became a major part of her life and currently we supply many businesses in Australia and overseas.
(Further information is available if you are interested in running a seminar or series with us).
The International College of Intuitive Sciences was founded by Daryll Mitchell and combined with Renascent (for approximately 20 years) to work with a number of Ch’i and Feng Shui masters and practitioners in Australia, China, Nepal, Thailand, Singapore, Hong Kong, England, USA and Indonesia. Many of our wholesale and retail customers have become workshop sponsors and held very successful seminars and classes in their own areas.
In 2021, Lesley & her son were involved in a near fatal car accident. Through this experience, Lesley crossed over to the other side whilst still remaining on earth, she experienced the other side and has been in therapy and rehab for a year to recover physically. Her insight & clairvoyant abilities were once again fine tuned and her path directly guided back to where she taught 30 years prior.
Lesley & Daryll separated in 2018 and formally separated the businesses in 2022, both deciding to trade under different names to reflect their death and rebirth.
Soul Light Emporium is founded and operated by Lesley. Dedicated to healing, art, spiritual pursuits and wellness.

Metaphysics, Kinesiology Instructor & Practitioner, Natural Therapist (Australian Traditional Medical Society), Beauty Therapist, Independant Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki Master, Artist, Crystal Therapist, Gem Essence Instructor & Facilitator Trainer, Herbalist, Vibrational Healer, Feng Shui & Geomancy Practitioner & Instructor, Chef, Clinical Hypnotherapist, Tao Initiate, International Author & lecturer.
Premises: Currently operating from Lesley's home in Clifton Springs, where we have a beautiful, professional & nurturing seminar room, product display, clinic & reading room. You are free to sit in specially tuned healing energy sites, have a free cup of fresh coffee or tea or (weather permitting) relax in the beautiful garden with the sea birds (and our chickens).
What we offer: We offer classes in many spiritual and healing topics from Workshop style spiritual development circle through to professional diplomas as health practitioners and teachers. Overseas Journeys at very reasonable prices designed for personal transformation, enjoyment and gaining professional qualifications. (We previously trained 34 Reiki & Tien Ti masters on a very successful journey through Thailand and Nepal and 17 Qi Gong Practitioners in China). A very special spiritual journey to Borneo / Malaysia - where the participants were nurtured, stayed in amazing surroundings, holidayed, had practical teachings, received massage & health consultations, were blessed by the Bobohisan (high priestess), invited into the spiritual head hunters village and came back transformed in many ways. We have had several journeys with participants to Bali where Lesley (and her now adult) children lived, whilst the youngest studied at Green School.
We offer a natural health clinic dealing with clients from serious health concerns to simple revitalisation & upliftment. We utilise many healing modalities including Kinesiology to enable us to provide the highest, most rapid form of healing for each individual. A personal consultation promotes a lightness of heart as well as healing for the body, mind and soul. A recent client remarked "Without knowing it, I have needed that session for the last 30 years - I’ll be back regularly".
Lifestyle: Although both aspects of Soul Light Emporium / Renascent and Renascent College have become very successful businesses, they are more than that to us, they are our life in so many ways. We not only teach and sell these services and products, but we live the principles and incorporate them into our everyday life in every aspect. We travel extensively and spend as much time on other continents as we do in Australia, however when we are in Australia as well as working often long & varied hours, we work developing a small aspect of permaculture and self sufficiency in our own garden & home and spend as much time as possible in Ch’i development practices.
We are not housed in a large corporate office, rather we have the head offices, stock room, seminar room, clinic and the manufacturing area based on our own property.
We do not have an extravagant lifestyle, we are currently experiencing a simple down to earth life, with much of our healing and classes by donation. Whilst we need to pay our bills (like everyone) and have some extra income, we choose to charge for some classes and clinic sessions so we are able to dedicate ourselves and our time 100% to being the best teachers and healers we can. Naturally the bills must be paid some where and by charging for some services we can follow this path (and be of the best benefit to you) fully. However, rather than a financial decision we made a decision to follow our hearts and the journey we are led on.
What we can offer to you: The products and services we supply are those which make a change in the consciousness in some way. They are those we use in our own lives that we know work. We do not supply trinkets or decorations, only items which hold spiritual, uplifting or healing benefits.
As Soul Light Emporium is backed by The International College of Gem Essences we are able to guarantee that all the Feng Shui, Ch’i Energy and Gem Essence products we supply are accurate, potentised and effective. We offer back up support and make ourselves available to you for any questions that may arise from yourself or your clients and are happy to spend time over the phone to provide clarity and understanding in many topics for yourself &/or your staff in the use of our products. We also offer free introductory evenings with the Centre and evening seminars that begin from as little as $10.
As a result of this and our personal quests and journeys we are pleased to have developed wonderful friendships with many of our students and customers over the years from around the globe.
Clinic: In the clinic we offer many varied techniques for healing, health and vitality including Kinesiology, Qi Gong, Herbalism, Reiki, Spiritual Healing, Acupressure, Vibrational Medicine, Colour Therapy, Crystal Healing, Stellar Essences, Gem Essences, Flower Essences, Vitamin & supplement support along with some less known techniques.
Classes: In the classes we offer a range of topics including: Feng Shui, Geomancy, Kinesiology, Meditation, Spiritual Development, Natural Healing, Energy techniques, Touch For Health, Gemmology, Crystal Light Balancing, Crystal Workshop, Gem Essences, Sound Healing, Space Clearing and many more varied topics including overseas journeys of transformation.
What we can not offer you: As our business is varied, we can not guarantee you 24 hour service 7 days a week. We can not always guarantee to answer all calls immediately (even in business hours). Very often we are teaching seminars (in Australia and Overseas), employed in consultations for homes and businesses, working with clients in the clinic or revelling in life.
However, during these times recommend emailing us and guarantee you personal attention and service to your request or inquiry. Orders or enquiries may be emailed through 24 hours a day. Our email is Email Us Here.
