Joos:

My passion for investigating the relationship between body, mind and Spirit has grown in the course of my life.
When I studied at the university I chose the subjects clinical psychology, physiological psychology and psychology of religion.
After getting my degree I worked as a psychotherapist in my village.
Especially during the later years of my work I realized that the contact with the body is essential, both for the client and for the therapist.

At the end of the year 2000 I started writing.
I wanted to experience the principles of the workbook of A Course in Miracles in the body by interpreting them in ordinary language, the language of the body.
This resulted in the books Wholeness and Wholeness complete, published by Gopher.
Both books were illustrated by Carol Grigg, an American painter.
Her colourful paintings helped me to find the words I wanted to use in my books.

In the mean time I had gotten interested in the Tzolkin, the sacred calendar of the Mayas.
José Arguelles writes in his book The Mayan Factor that we can find the creative energy of the 20 sun glyphs in our bodies, in 26 so called energy locks.
Jin Shin Jyutsu® employs twenty-six “safety energy locks” along energy pathways that feed life into our bodies. When one or more of the paths becomes blocked, the resulting stagnation can disrupt the local area and eventually disharmonize the complete path of energy flow.
Harmonizing these energy locks can bring balance to mind, body and spirit.
In order to find out more about the energy in different areas of the body, I studied some books about Jin Shin Jyutsu®, while at the same time writing a book about the experience: Playing with the Life Force (not yet published).

We can assist our bodies in aligning with the greater universe by placing our fingertips on designated areas of the body, by being aware.
By sensing our bodies we can feel the life force, our presence in the mystery of life.

Love is with us.

Idea

Each part is whole. Because wholeness is indivisible.

"The opposites we are feeling inside us have been brought about by ourselves. We are the one side as well as the other. We are neither the one side nor the other. Today, find out for yourself which opposites are playing a major role in your life. Angry and afraid? Performing and afraid? Wanting to be liked and afraid? Wanting to make considerable progress and no longer being able to? Continuously looking for changes and being bored? Compliant and stubborn? Self-sacrificing and vindictive? Modest and tiresome? Which applies to you? Search for a place inside yourself where both sides are allowed to exist simultaneously. A place that involves ‘and-and’ rather than ‘or-or’. Experience the sensation of doing justice to both sides at the same time. Forgive yourself if you do not succeed."
