A week after completing the training, I treated an elderly lady who was having vocal problems. Specifically she was having problems breathing and according to the family doctor this was because of stress. On that basis I began working with her.

Pulling from what I learned in the training, I asked deeper questions and things came up that she had not mentioned before. I was listening differently and got to the core of what was going on.

In short: by asking more profound questions, I was suddenly able to draw a connection between the several problems. I made a report based on this and called the family doctor. This resulted in a visit to the neurologist a day later where she was diagnosed with a deadly muscular disease (she called yesterday to tell me).

Because of my action, the diagnosis was made clear much earlier and steps were taken to improve her condition. As my husband said, “So, that is meaning...”.

Independent of what you think you already know,find out what you are missing. It was exciting and challenging to experience how pre-determined my actions were in my contact with others. It was beautiful to see how these experiences were shared in the group. It’s incredible to see what happens when the patterns no longer predetermine your life.

Fernand Veldkamp

 

 

 

Surprising to discover that listening to yourself makes it possible to truly listen to others. It appears counterintuitive. If you look at other trainings, the focus is on interpreting others, instead of learning how to make contact with yourself and through that, contact with others. I am, dare I say, excited at the possibilities I now see ahead of me.

What has become extremely clear to me is that being in contact with your ‘self’, when in contact with others, creates an opening into real communications. Something completely new takes shape. It is strange, but when you experience it, it is not strange at all. It is a truly moving experience.

Inge Veldkamp

 

 

 

I discovered how to communicate more transparently. There were times in my life when I said, “What’s going on here”, not knowing what to do next. Now I know what to do and how to do it. Asking questions is a powerful thing.

This was very valuable. I felt lonesome for many years in my contact with people. I am not accustomed to putting myself forward in my contact with others. The training gave me the opportunity to rediscover myself within the group and I found this very valuable.

Annemiek van den Heuvel

 

 

 

A true learning experience for anyone who is open to it.

Kai Wanchit

 

 

 

It was a wonderful learning experience. It was a big opener for me. This is for anyone that is looking to discover meaning in their communication with others. Thank you.

Hans Bik

 

 

 

Thanks! In a few short hours I saw what happens when you take responsibility and confront problems head on. With a boost in my self confidence, I got to the core of the problem I was facing in my relationship.

Yevan de Souza

 

 

 

My wife thanks you for the training.

Erik Breuker

 

 

 

It was a learning experience. It gives you new perspective in ways that I could not have imagined ahead of time. It works.

Ron Pleunis

 

 

 

Fantastic in so many ways… It helps in your dealing with colleagues, as well as in personal relationships. The training gives you more perspective as to what’s keeping others occupied. It allows you to get quicker and clearer to the point. It cuts out the wasted time when running up against personal challenges. It makes the time meaningful.

Charles van Blitterswijk

 

 

 

It creates a complete new perspective in communications and how people interact with one another. It is a shame if you don’t have the opportunity to take part in it.

Marc Mooij

 

 

 

If you want to get everything out of your life, you must follow this course. After that you can say Welcome to Life 2.0.

Frits Henrotte

 

 

 

I am now conscious of the fact that showing respect for others in communications can have remarkable effects. The impact is that others take action without you needing to drive it. To put it in other words, creating freedom in other creates means more freedom for yourself.

Rocco Lo Bianco

 

 

 

Whatever you do, do it. It’s freeing.

Harro Philip

 

 

 

The course taught me how to communicate more effectively and become more effective at building relationships. This is something that we can all use on a daily basis. It’s well worth the effort.

René Bliekendaal

 

 

 

The course was great for many reasons. Firstly, the possibility to create deeper relations with others in a trusting environment was tremendously valuable. That can’t always be done in work situations as people are usually cautious about what they say and do. You get to the meaning of where people are and what makes them tick.

I look at people differently now. This is because things have more meaning. Now I am in touch with that meaning. People that are stuck will certainly get something from this training.

Sharline Clements

 

 

 

I found it a great course. It can be confronting, but well worth it.

André Bijl

 

 

 

I got the order in. One entire page! Thanks for the help.

It is strange to experience how to help solutions arise in others. Even if you are not clear as to what the solution is for them, they thank you for it.

Leon Bosma

 

 

 

I have attended many trainings in my life and this one has been a key piece in connecting many of the puzzle pieces from the former trainings. It is as if 10 pieces have now come together and I see the puzzle forming before me. It feels like a whole lot more than several disconnected pieces.

Marnix van den Ent

 

 

 

I now see that I have spent the majority of my time working from my own context. I was completely unconscious around the context of the other, and even the fact that this context was necessary. From the experience of this training I realize that I have been 10% active with something that I could have been 100% active with. It is now clear to me that whatever I do, it must be in alignment with the context of the other.

Pepijn van de Vorst

 

 

 

Before I knew that communication was important, but now with the model, the questions and the intention behind it, I have a concrete picture of what I can do. This is a major difference in comparison to the trainings that I had before. There was a lot of discussion around what was important, but no way to apply it consistently in my daily life.

Ed van der Zalm

 

 

 

The courses that I have attended in the past were all about learning a skill set and practicing with fixed situations in which those skills could be used. Here it was not like that. Here I was made aware of what was possible in situations that I see before me. That is a completely different feeling compared to being told when the light is green - go. When the light is red - stop.

Leon Bosma

 

 

 

For me a door has been opened. It was a special experience to see how listening can mean so much. On the outside it appears so simple, but the impact is deep.

Tjun Preeyakorn

 

 

 

Before this training I found it difficult to express myself when communicating with highly confident people. I tended to cut myself off, holding back what was important for me. Now I see that true confidence does not show itself in talking over people, but being able to listen. Since this training I am participating more in the groups I am part of and listening closely to myself and trusting in what I am hearing. This training has meant a lot for me.
