LAZY YIN


In spiritual cultivation, most practitioners miss the yin, they miss the body. Others do cultivate the body, but then become lazy. I call this “lazy yin.”

They relax into the body and become formless, which is an important stage. In the teachings I share, the connection with the earth body is essential. But it is also possible to become stuck there.


This is where laziness appears: sinking into darkness and the vast sea of yin, believing that state is the destination. But it is only a step along the path. It is important to understand this clearly.


Yin must be transformed into vital yin.


This means it becomes contained, connected to the energy system and channels, and begins to nourish and rejuvenate the body, like the body of a child, vibrant and alive. From there, this refined quality of yin becomes a true foundation for further cultivation and for meeting the good quality of yang.


In truth,

Dirk

This training is for women only.

For women who long for a life lived from their true nature, from authenticity. For those who are done with a life lived from the head and the pursuit of superficial ideals and relationships. For those who are ready to purify the energy of old pain, shame, and the past from your experience of being a woman.


So that this feminine essence can become your compass in your life.

Present in the depths, the darkness of your body, where your strength lies as a woman. Where you can find rest and a sense of home.
With your heart open and loving, grounded in the bed of your pelvis.
Living in total reverence for your female body.


WWe reconnect with our breasts and yoni, with their divine power and their ability to bring you directly to your essence.

ALCHEMY OF BODYWORK PRACTICE EVENINGS IN 'S-HERTOGENBOSCH AND HAMME


Dates:

's Hertogenbosch: 11/06/2026 from 19:15 to 21:30
Hamme: 26/06/2026 from 19:00 to 21:00


Teachers:

's Hertogenbosch: Mieke Van Zon
Hamme: Davy Carlé, Elke Wilssens


Have you ever taken an Alchemy of Bodywork training? Then you’re very welcome to join us for this evening of practice, where you can practice what you’ve learned in one flowing session. Whether it’s been a while or you’re still fresh in the habit, this is the perfect opportunity to refresh and deepen your bodywork skills.

You bring a practice person yourself for this evening, but you will not work with the person you bring. This allows you to attune to a new body and learn to give a treatment from the moment itself.
For example, you can practice the Full Body Treatment or techniques from a Bodywork week or the Bodywork Essentials. You will also have the opportunity to receive feedback and practical tips.


We start with a short series of body-oriented exercises (about half an hour), after which the treatments take place. We close the evening with a shared meditation. Will you join us? After registration, you will receive an email with all practical information. We look forward to welcoming you!

Healing is the process of becoming ‘whole’. It is not about getting rid of symptoms or disease. That’s the effect. We are constantly healing by living in ‘at-one-ment’ with the divine. In existence, pain, sickness and death are a natural part of the sea of aliveness. That in itself is not a problem. It is the lack of presence and consciousness that creates the suffering. Because that what needs to happen in our lives to help us learn what we need to learn, will happen. ‘Alchemical Self Healing’ will help you with this. It is a unique, practical approach coming from 30 years of experience and has its roots in a lineage of spirits holding this ancient ‘Alchemical Healing’ wisdom.



Alchemy is all about transmutation — turning lead into gold.
The combination of Alchemy and Healing is profoundly powerful and can offer support to many who feel caught in a seemingly endless spiral of suffering. This may unfold on a physical, emotional, mental or consciousness level.

To do this, we need to shift our understanding of what healing truly is and learn the principles that nature uses to remain in constant harmony.

Just like Spagyric Medicine — an ancient alchemical healing method developed by Paracelsus.
Spagyrics can be used to address physical, emotional, mental and/or spiritual challenges by working with the principles of nature and how nature constantly maintains its own balance. The focus is not on ‘fixing symptoms’ but on initiating processes of transformation.

ALCHEMY OF BODYWORK - THE 8 LAYERS OF THE BODY


Dates: (Brussels time):
24/08/2026 from 09:30 to 17:30
25/08/2026 from 09:30 to 17:30
26/08/2026 from 09:30 to 17:30
27/08/2026 from 09:30 to 17:30
28/08/2026 from 09:30 to 17:30

Teacher: Dirk Oellibrandt

Location: Hamme


Theme of this year: Treatment Of The Belly

This year, the full focus will be on the different ways of working with and treating the abdominal region.

As always, the principles of Alchemy of Bodywork form the foundation, with the post- and prenatal application of the Five Elements as the central framework. This time, the emphasis is not so much on the individual layers of the 8 layers of the body, but rather on a deep and powerful exploration of the abdominal region, where these 8 layers naturally converge.

During this 5-day training, we will:

  • Work deeply with organ tissue and its corresponding energy
  • Refine and correct organ movement, relationships, and positioning
  • Learn to open, cleanse, and energize the energetic network of the abdominal region
  • Treat the energy centers within the abdomen
  • · Restore the connection between the abdomen and the extremities


In short, a unique 5-day Alchemy of Bodywork immersion that will have a profound impact on participants — both as receivers of the work and as a powerful enhancement of the impact of their own treatments.
