Today is my Birthday
44 cycles around the 🌞

Where I’m at?

In many ways I feel a deep sense of peace and contentment within myself

With the years I feel
the need to be validated diminishes

The energy going into what
other people will think shrinks.

The listening to my own heart expands
Trusting it.

The softness in being kind with myself grows.
Oh how harsh I used to be!

And for this next cycle 🌞

My wish is to really love and honor this temple I live in.

To take such good care of this body.

To really make time for this.

Not from a place of fixing

But from LOVE 💗

To nourish, to rest, to make the body joyful, strong.

My body is moving through the next chapter, deep in perimenopause and I feel its knock asking me to take really good care of this vessel.

At times it’s a bumpy and very unpredictable ride 😅

❤️❤️❤️

There is a life-force within your soul,
seek that life.

There is a gem 💎
in the mountain 🏔️ of your body,
seek that mine.

O traveler, if you are in search of That

Don’t look outside,
look inside yourself and seek That.

May all women be free
May all women be fierce
May all women be safe enough to be soft
May all women have men in their lives who are warriors of the heart.

Today on international women’s day is just really pray 🙏🏻
For a more peaceful world 🌍

In which we can all be free
As long as women and children are not safe
We do not have peace

Wether this is in the wars we create
Or Far away countries with different belief systems
Or in walking down the street
Or feeling you are free and safe to express yourself fully with your partner without fear
(Every week in NL a woman dies from femicide, often by partner).

Peace 🕊️ for ALL.

My dream is that the feminine will rise
Within all women and all men
That we return to balance

Away from greed driven patriarchy we are living in.
So we no longer just use, gain, consume, deplete.

But build, nourish, 🌱flourish, create and connect.
Drop a ❤️‍🔥if you are with me

With love,
❤️

Ok… true story.

Some years ago I went on the only online dating app date I ever went on.

It wasn’t a match on many levels 🙈
The biggest instant turn off?

The guy was out of breath within 2 minutes of playing badminton. Panting, had to stop.

Now: WHY is this such a turn off for me?

When you can control your breath
you don’t get out of breath so easily.

This takes ✨PRACTICE & FOCUS ✨

When you train your breath you have more endurance 🔥and energy….😉

But more importantly than the physical stamina aspects….

When you are UNAWARE of your breath🌬️……

Chances are big that:
- body awareness is low
- emotional awareness is low

When these are low the capacity to self regulate and take care of your inner state is really a challenge.

With this you become more emotionally reactive
- with out the feedback loop from body,
taking a breath to reflect when triggered….
You get where this is going.

If the level of self awareness is low,
body awareness is low,
self regulation low: how safe I feel emotionally with this person? Low ⬇️😅.

How do you learn these things?

So ladies & gents for your own
presence & enjoyment in life:

How to learn these things?

🔹Start with meditating and focusing on the breath
(Awareness of breathing mindfulness meditation)

🔹Practice focusing on your breath
when you work out.

Slow down your breath- stabilize
In through the nose- out through the mouth 👄 much healthier than inhaling through the mouth.

🔹Practice noticing how your breath responds to your emotional inner state.
How does your breath feel when stressed?
When feeling sad?
When you are relaxed?

🔹When you can notice that:
You can move to slow deep breathing when emotions are intense, this gives you space to feel and self regulate.

This is simple stuff.
That takes practice and time.

And changes your life for good!

With love,
❤️

Are you awake?

Are you really going to put that there?
In your BIO? 🙈😳

What are people going to think?
That you are arrogant!
That you have a ‘gift’ (hello expectations - that can only create trouble )

Before this creates confusion let me explain.
What I mean with awakening
And how I see my role in supporting you

First of all, I do not ‘give’ you this OR offer this. Absolutely not. Not selling awakening. Period.

In the past years I have seen many of my clients who work with me go thought various kinds of awakening processes while working with me.

That may have already started BEFORE we even met. Sometimes is gets accelerated.
Or deepens during our work together.
Sometimes it starts during a Breathwork session.

Waking up: what do I mean?

I mean becoming more aware
For some that is waking up to realizing: ‘I am not my thoughts’. A simple first wake up.

Or: heck I’m free I dont have to do all this stuff I thought everyone expected me to do in life!

To a deeper awakening to life and your place in it.
To things within the unseen that you have felt but always ignored
To a kundalini 🐍 awakening.

I don’t DO this.
You do. Or life shows you.
It’s common when going through Transformation.
Part of the falling apart.
The shedding.

Why I put it here?
Because when I went through various stages of my own waking up (no way do I think I’m done. The process keeps on expanding- work in progress! & waking up is NOT the same as enlightenment).

I would have LOVED 💓to have had someone
I can to talk to who:

-Understands

-Doesn’t think I’m crazy

-Can validate a lot of the awkwardness and fear I’m going through

-Takes me seriously as not everyone’s entourage knows how relate what you are experiencing.

- Understand the impact this may have on your relationships - as you changed and the did not - hello accepting yourself and maybe also letting go of some people - ouch.

So there, I put it there,
I hope I’m understood 😅

And if this resonates,
You are most welcome,
Send me a message to connect.

With love,
❤️

Many people are frustrated with how far they can go
in conventional therapy.

And we get that 😉

Rational insight can get you only so far.

& I really believe in a more holistic approach. Since September last year we have been working together.

Which means not only are our techniques more holistic, but even more importantly the lens we have on what it means to be human, and how we relate to going through challenging times, growth and transformation is quite different from the symptom reducing mechanistisch and protocolled view in mainstream psychology clinics.

We will share what exactly means in an Instagram Live and from where we are approaching our role as therapists: including our view on spirituality, plant medicine and intergenerational patterns and trauma,

Join us depth on Monday February 9th
Instagram Live here at 1PM.

Join us then or watch the replay here soon!

Like many of you, I’ve felt it all this week. 🥺

Shock, horror, disgust,
hopelessness, rage.

The world we’re living in right now
is really not a pretty place.

And I really feel that the system we’re living in, patriarchy, is really, really, really showing its ugly face right now. In so many ways.

It even has me wondering,
am I doing the right work?
Am I being useful enough?

Should I be working with men, doing men’s work?

I feel that there’s a huge amount of
work with men that needs to happen.

Because women can’t shift this system,
this power play, this hierarchy, on their own.

We need you!
Everyone needs to wake up.

And I realize also that women
need to be empowered to rise,
to speak up, to no longer be silenced.

And I feel that that is my work,
that is my path.

But I could feel real frustration this week,
realizing I feel like I’m just cleaning up the mess, picking up the pieces of the damage done in a huge part by the patriarchy with the women that work with me.

And whether it’s actual sexual abuse,
physical abuse, neglect, being ignored emotionally, being oppressed,

and honestly also women who don’t dare to speak up, who don’t dare to say what they want and what they don’t want, who are still stuck in this old way of living.

Women need to learn how to use their voices.
We ALL need to make this change.

It’s time to wake up, to say no.
Enough is enough!

We as a collective have a lot of inner work to do,
Voices to use
And many choices- on where we put our money 💵
for example.

If you are angry, so am I,
Use it constructively

I would love to hear your thoughts on how we can create positive change - please share in the comments 👇🏻

❤️‍🔥
Aileen

Ps.
I of course do not mean that women are by definition innocent, or men are to blame for everything… however the numbers on abuse do show the perpetrator is almost always a man. This needs to stop.
Part of the change I want to see is a return to matriarchy - a system in which both feminine and masculine are honored, and life at large is cared for for good of all including our planet 🌍

After a year of pausing - this is my first event again.

Warm, connecting and uplifting.

To remember
Are so important!

We chose the Full Moon and Beltane as a
