Water weekend

15 years ago I attended a seminar Chinese medicine and the context of Dreaming with Josef Müller. Last weekend was a nice reunion with this experienced Swiss teacher during the 2-day seminar Spiritual Anatomy of the Meridian system - An indepth exploration of all points on each meridian in 5 weekends. Next to that it is always great to see a few close colleagues again.

The first weekend was centered around the Kidney and Bladder; the Water phase. And Water is really ‘my element’. A deep connection. I recognize the qualities, but certainly the other side too. One does not exist without the other. Denial is pointless.

Continuing education and literature are not limited to just fill up your clinical toolbox, aimed at your clients. For me for to a great extent it’s also about my own growth and development. Personal. Spiritual. A smile, inspiration and insights. How fortunate that, despite Josef’s own preference, Water was the first weekend. When given a short description it sometimes feels like a leap of faith. But almost always I bring home treasures. Inspiration to sink in, points to experience myself.

Yes, of course I ‘treat’ myself. How can I promote the power of Acupuncture if I don’t apply it on myself? So I more than happily experience a certain flow (or the lack of it) after some self-needling sessions. Meditate along the rivers of my inner landscape and observe the manifestations which flow from that. A substantial part of joy for my profession.

As mentioned in the subtitle; all points on every meridian. The Bladder with most points of all: 67. Add to that 27 points of the Kidney meridian and you got a weekend filled with a lot of words and writing. Lovely to close off the weekend with floating along on the sounds of Lavinia Meijer’s harp. An evening in Tivoli Utrecht drenched with water elements. Synchronicity or perception? Inspiration and ideas from multi-dimensional wells. And at the same time so universal.

Josef Müller started the weekend with the following quote: “The body is the shadow of the mind”. More than once during the concert I watch the shadow of the harp and the artist. Everything but a vacuum Lavinia. Heavenly sounds emerge from emptiness. The stillness fills the composition, and harmony.

January Acupuncture offer

To support your new year’s resolutions concerning health well-being and happiness, there is a special offer in January.

As most people know I offer a 5-session card, with which you pay € 78 instead of the regular rate of € 98.

This card is available all year for € 390, but when you buy this card in January you get an extra benefit. After these 5 treatments you also pay € 78 instead of € 98 for consecutive treatments in the first half year (so until Juli 1st 2019). So for all long time clients and all those who are planning to come in on a regular basis a great opportunity!

Alright, as a reminder here are the normal existing conditions of the session card:

• Payment of the session card is only possible by paying the full amount

• A 5-sessions card is personal and cannot be transferred to another person

• The card and the rate are valid when the payment is processed

• You will receive an invoice of € 78,- per treatment (which is already paid)

• The card is valid in the calendar year that you buy one

• Treatments that you do not use are not returnable or refundable

An appointment which is not cancelled in time will be seen as a treatment and be deducted from the remaining treatments


Interested? E-mail me fo a payment link (or questions) on acupuncturist.contact@gmail.com or whatsapp/message me on +31-6-16936974, mentioning first and last name, date of birth and full address when you are not registered yet at the clinic.

Important, this offer is only valid when you buy the session card in January. After that, not anymore. Good to know for new comers in Rotterdam: Only on Fridays I am in the Rotterdam clinic. In Amsterdam there is availabiltiy on more days.
