About Joos:

Joos has written three books: Wholeness, Wholeness complete, and Playing with the life force.
The first two books are based on A Course in Miracles, and have been translated into English.
It had an alienating effect on Joos when she, on taking the Course in Miracles, was taught during twenty days on end: "I am not a body. I am free."
Discomfort with this interpretation of the physical body was her impetus to begin writing.

By writing her understanding of the relationship between body and spirit was profoundly effected.  
The third book is about the creative energy of the Tzolkin sun glyphs to be found at certain energy points in our bodies.
Joos is also translating her newest book into English.

Joos has worked as a body-oriented psychotherapist for almost 25 years.
She noticed, especially in the later years of her work, that the contact with your own body is essential, both for the client and for the therapist.
As a human being we have a tendency to believe and to live the stories about ourselves.
By sensing our bodies we find a sense of self.
The stories about ourselves fade into the background

Joos:

When we are searching on the spiritual path we sooner or later land in a sphere of obligation, insistence, duties.
A sphere prescribing us how IT should be.
A sphere in which we want to prescribe the other how IT should be.
By peeling off those spheres we encounter effervescent LIFE.
Love is nearby.

When you tell a person he is not his body, this person will start acting accordingly.
This person starts to deny, to push aside, to exclude his body.
In this manner this person starts to make a division between his Self and his body. A division we precisely want to bridge, because our bodies are part of our Livingness.
By sensing our bodies the spiritual experience may become a personal experience.
