Een stromend intiem leven…

In mijn werk raak ik aan of begeleid ik stellen om elkaar op nieuwe manieren aan te raken.Wat me vooral opvalt is dat we niet geleerd hebben wat de mogelijkheden zijn van aanraking.Best vaak ‘doen we maar wat’ en we zijn eigenlijk niet zo bewust wat we precies doen.Welke impact heeft welke aanraking?In het begin van de relatie werkt dit ...

De kracht van samen

Een mooi gegeven in het werk wat ik doe is dat je in groepen terecht komt. In relatie met anderen ontstaat dynamiek. Anderen zijn spiegels die je iets over jezelf komen vertellen. In relatie met anderen kan je thema’s aanraken als kwetsbaarheid, grenzen, wensen, veiligheid, jezelf uitspreken, emoties voelen en uiten. In relatie met anderen kun je spelen en ontdekken ...

Aan alle geliefden

Herkennen jullie dit....? Als je elkaar net kent dan gaat de intimiteit als vanzelf. De vlam slaat over, de juiste geur, de juiste aanrakingen. Maar na een tijdje verandert alles. Het wordt saai, we doen vaak hetzelfde, de een raakt niet goed aan, de ander gaat op slot. Opeens voelt het als een opgave om met je partner te vrijen.Onze roze ...

Liefde is kunst

Ik werk veel met stellen of individueel met mensen die dichter bij zichzelf of bij elkaar willen komen.Dichtbij werkelijke verlangens, stromend en bubbelend in ons lijf, luisteren naar wat ons werkelijk blij maakt.Het begint met het leren kennen van je eigen wensen en verlangens, en deze dan ook durven delen met anderen.Steeds weer ervaar ik dat echte verbinding ontstaat daar waar ...

Het is tijd..

Vanaf heel jong wilde ik niet voelen hoe pijnlijk het is om hier op aarde te zijn. Pijn door misbruik, pijn door dierenleed, pijn door hebzucht, pijn door honger.Dat is diepe pijn.Ook mijn eigen gevoelens en emoties, verdriet, boosheid, angst, wilde ik niet voelen, ik wist niet hoe. Ik wilde er voorbij.Ik probeerde me te verstoppen in verslavingen, niet voelen, ...

De stilte van je ziel

Waar ik naar op zoek ben is je ziel.Wat die mij te vertellen heeft.Ik wil je stem horen,je hart horen spreken.Ik wil aangeraakt worden, in mijn lijf.In mijn hart wil ik je voelen.Voorbij het geluid.Het razende geluid.Naar de stilte van je ziel ...

Part I – The Outer Critic …

This morning, before doing my normal body & soul practice “moving my body the way it wants to move with do-in tao yoga, capoeira, boxing, dancing, sensual movement and meditation’’ I got lost in facebook scrolling. My mood went from happy and grateful for my life to a big cloud over my head of depression and what a f#$@cked up ...

No self-love is my prison

Entering this new year I realize I still don’t love myself completely from deep within. Even though it is way better than it ever was and I have gone through so many layers of healing already.First my grip on life was my personality or ego layer. Thinking I was so smart, evolved, spiritual.She was arrogant and told me, see we ...

It’s a new day

The energy in the world is very strong at this moment, everybody can feel it, opinions, separation, it is intensifying. It is really too much, I rather not feel it. But… I made a commitment… To myself, to my daughter, to all beautiful people I know, the spirit world, the universe: I am creating a new world! This is what ...

Vulnerability

I am so loving that we are heading into this new world where expressing, loving, opening up, showing ourselves with every feeling we have is more and more allowed and even appreciated. We can express our sexuality, our creativity, our intellect, our inner being, our emotions, our uniqueness. But all this also comes with learning ‘how to’ express from our ...

Honoring my father and all men

Today I want to honor my father and all men. Today one year ago I saw my father for the last time on his birthday, 2 weeks later he died. I felt a relieve for him, no more suffering, and also i felt a relieve for myself. I never liked my father, he was hard and verbally fucked my brain ...

Finally me

My life has been like a twilight zone, a world I was taught was real and my own world and reality but not knowing how to live and express it. I did not learn how to feel myself, or how to go my own way, I was taught to control and plan my life. The past years my intention was ...

Surrender to life

It is now 7 years ago since I surrendered myself to whatever wants to unfold in my life. I was struggling with a lot, did work that was not me and I did not know how to get out. So I started asking show me why am I here, how can I be of service to this world.The only thing ...

The beauty of surrender

After years of practicing shibari I wonder what it is that keeps me so in love with this way of expressing and connecting. Every time it is different and every time it touches me so deeply. It brings me to a place inside myself where I feel calm, playful, vulnerable and powerful. It is an experience of surrender for the ...

Opening up in intimacy

In the field of intimacy and sexuality we are experiencing and opening up in so many ways nowadays. We have not really learned how to be sexual in a healthy way and so we are looking for it in tantra, at sexy parties, in couples clubs, in beautiful shibari, in bdsm, through intimacy and relationship coaches. How do we get ...

Freedom to explore

When i was growing up there was a lot of judgment on sex, and especially a girl liking a lot of sex. I was that girl and i didn’t think there was anything wrong with exploring sex.There was shame & limiting beliefs on what is considered ‘right’ sexual behavior (ok there still is…) We keep everything in our shadow and ...

Touch yourself

Exploring ourselves intimately is such a deep, liberating, fun and challenging path to follow.Showing our vulnerability, our greatness and our true hearts is something we learn by taking it step by step.We all have our own little buttons, fantasies and preferences. Partly this is who we are and partly it is influenced by the relationships we had when growing up. Besides ...

Integrating our past

Our past will always affect the way we are today. Especially in intimate relationships our past will influence the way we show ourselves. What limits us many of the time relates back to when we were younger and got hurt or felt we were not seen. We are protecting our old wounds and we are trying not to get hurt ...

Fear

Last night I woke up and suddenly realised I have been afraid all my life.Afraid to show myself completely in all my colours (especially in groups).What I bring to this world is light fun spaces where we can bring exactly what we feel and who we are, do what makes our heart jump, feel free in our bodies and from ...
