In 2023 I wrote this very personal essay for Happinez Magazine about our spirit baby’s, here in Dutch. With beautiful drawings by Emmy-Koos Meijer and a warm thank you to Happinez for giving me the chance to write about this secret life of children.I hope it can provide some comfort and words for the ocean of feelings…
simple
Lately I’ve been asking myself how simple my life really is at this point. I always thought simple had to be about less and less. About letting go. About saying no. About knowing how to make wise choices and healthy routine. About buying less and wanting less. About reducing. And I still believe this to…
things so sacred
Dear souls, we have a lot to talk about. But for me this is not the place to do it. I’ve created a space that feels safe for the things that are sacred and that I want to share with you during these times. I’m not going to explain here why or recruit members. If it’s…
weaving ourselves back into the web of life
There’s something bittersweet about feeling lonely when you know yourself deeply loved. There’s the sense of recognizing the part of you that longs for a deeper connection, for being known and seen for who you truly are, and this lack feels very sad but at the same time fertile, because that special connection might be…
dreaming up a new life
Lately I’ve heard myself telling people I hardly worked the past 6 months. But then I stopped myself. You hardly worked? Woman, you may have done more work in the past 6 months than you’ve done in your whole life. What do you mean with ‘work’? Let’s go back a bit. Most of my life,…
delivering parcels
We keep a candle lit on our kitchen table every morning. It’s burning for the two children who didn’t come into our physical family, to tell their souls they’re a part of us and not forgotten. And to remember ourselves that we are part of a lot more than we can see. And a lot…
letters to my husband and his lover
A couple of years ago, when we still lived in France and my husband was in Holland for long stretches of time, he fell in love with someone else and had an affair. I felt devastated and deeply ashamed. I blamed him for ruining our perfect marriage, because –of course- this was entirely his fault….
moeder aarde apotheek
And the time has come to open up my Moeder Aarde Apotheek (Mother Earth Apothecary) online. So many of us are in need of help on all levels to work through these challenging times I will offer a limited selection of medicine here for anyone who needs it. All medicines are made in our healing…
soul medicine
So these are the times? In my new book I write about wolf medicine: changing the us-them mentality into unity. People who know me know I make non-commercial soul medicine out of plant remedies for people who seek healing. This week I make a corona soul medicine for anyone who feels they need it. It…
homesick
It is a strange feeling to be at home and feel homesick at the same time. At first I did not recognize it as homesickness and labeled it as grief, as sadness, maybe a climate depression, rage over the rapid demolition of our natural world. Then I realized I’m grieving deeply over the loss of…
gardener/ guardian
Every time I try to take a picture of my garden, my telephone dies. When we bought this house with its big, beautiful garden my hands were itching to plant herbs, fruit trees, rearrange, be a gardener. But somehow that attitude wasn’t appreciated. I did not know where to began, all the plants grew like…
