Simon van der Els

I pursue supporting the healing of individuals, groups and systems in all the ways I am able to.

"fragmentation is now very widespread, not only throughout society, but also in each individual; and this is leading to a kind of general confusion of the mind, which creates an endless series of problems and interferes with our clarity of perception so seriously as to prevent us from being able to solve most of them."
- David Bohm

This fragmentation requires healing.
The word 'healing' comes from Proto-Germanic 'Hailjan' which means literally "to make whole". The process of whole-ing I'm interested in is not one that is actively done, which does not require a 'doing' or a
'making' even. It is a matter of perception, a widening of our attention to witness a state which is present: wholeness. The universe, the earth, yourself: these are already whole. When wholeness is truly perceived, the healing is quick to follow.

"The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence."
— J. Krishnamurti

In my academic studies and work I've gone from generalist (biology) to hyper specialist (molecular microbiology). Later I've resurfaced and moved to generalist again, specifically investigating humanity's current predicament in the Metacrisis. For this I've read and listened to a wide range of sources and subjects: philosophy, science, spirituality and metaphysics. I aim to bring whole-ing with my research and communication.

In the recent years the state of the natural world (including humanity) presses heavily on all of my senses presses heavily on all of my senses (especially the heart). This weight functions as a force to deepen and widen my perception. I pursue different personal contemplative practices to integrate those percepts, these include: different meditations, time in nature, psychoactive plant medicines and also I'm training various shamanic practices.

I offer life-coaching and guidance work to people who feel stuck in life and in this moment of planetary upheaval. In this work I journey with the client in identifying their stuck patterns, releasing them and developing a new orientation towards their personal path. The methods I use are determined by the process, and I'm developing myself in ways of supporting all of Life in healing.
