THE TWO STAGES OF INCARNATION |
|
|
|
Incarnation is often understood as the soul entering the body, the arrival of life into physical existence. This is true. Yet few people seem to realize that incarnation consists of two parts.
The first part is something life does for you, because at the beginning you are still immature and developing. The second part, however, is something you must do yourself. Many people never complete this second step.
For true incarnation to take place, the mind must also descend into the body alongside the soul. This is where your real life begins. Without it, we become absorbed by the world and lose connection with our deeper purpose.
And yes, many people die without ever becoming fully incarnated.
When the mind, together with the soul, sinks into the body, life becomes practical and functional. The body can then, in connection with the earth, begin to reveal iwhy it is here, how it is meant to live, and what it is here to share, express, and contribute to the world.
In truth,
Dirk |

ALCHEMY OF BODYWORK PRACTICE EVENING IN HAMME
|
|
Date:
26/06/2026 from 19:00 to 21:00
Teachers:
Davy Carlé, Elke Wilssens
Location: Hamme
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!

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.

ALCHEMY OF BODYWORK EXPERIENCE EVENING
|
|
|
Date:
09/09/2026 from 19:00 to 21:00
Teacher: Dirk Oallibrandt
Location: Den Bosch
Embodiment
The Alchemy of Bodywork
A Unique Experiential Evening
with Dirk Oellibrandt
During this special evening, Dirk Oellibrandt shares a lifetime of experience in the alchemy of embodiment and bodywork. In the first part of the evening, he will guide you into the direct experience of what a truly embodied state of being feels like and the profound impact it can have on the quality of your life.
Being in Touch
From this embodied foundation, Dirk will take you into the second part of the evening: Being in Touch — a live demonstration of the Alchemy of Bodywork.
This goes far beyond simply observing a demonstration. You will experience in your own body what unfolds within the field of presence from which Dirk works. A master in "reading" the true body, he uses profound yet simple alchemical touches to remind the body of its original state, allowing its innate self-healing capacity to emerge once again.
During this evening, you will:
- Experience firsthand what it feels like to settle more deeply into an embodied state of being.
- Discover, through a live bodywork demonstration, what Being in Touch truly means.
- Have the opportunity to ask questions and have your copy of Alchemy of Bodywork signed.
- Be introduced to our new offerings in embodiment and bodywork.
