About Lian Mutsers:

Lian is a psychologist that bridges science and spirituality. She empowers people to take the pressure off themselves. Lian really follows her heart in life and she is interested in the dynamics of love, relationships and masculine versus feminine polarities. She believes it is crucial to have a practical connection with her clients' everyday life so that the improvements that are created are long-lasting.

Her approach is also influenced by her very own personal experiences. Lian had spent a long period in her life being controlled by a critical voice and unreasonably high expectations. Because of the stress and ongoing unhappiness that resulted from this, she neglected to take care of her own needs.

In addition to her work as a psychologist, Lian frequently talks to others on this issue in private on a daily basis, where she quickly learned that the great majority of people struggle with a far too high bar. So many individuals miss out on life on a daily basis as a result of the enormous obligations they set on themselves.

Her mission is to increase interpersonal bonds by allowing for vulnerability. Lian has recently divided her time between The Netherlands, Mexico and Portugal where she has embarked on a 1-month breathwork journey with a temporary tribe.

About Joel Dragon Smith:

I'm Joel, I am Métis, part white part Dënesųłı̨né, which means people of the land in our language. I was born and raised in a small northern Canadian city: Yellowknife. When I was young a career counselor once asked me, “what would you be doing if you didn't have to make money... I wrote down, pushing limits. I had grown up doing exactly that, pushing the limits of my body through snowboarding, skateboarding, and wakeboarding. I loved the freedom, the challenge and the fun!

Like most of us, I’ve experienced transformational experiences. One significant event was when I fell in love at 27 years of age. A type of love I'd never felt before. Truly limitless love. But as quickly and powerfully as it hit me, it was gone. And I went into a depression. While in this state, I knew I had to change. We have all experienced trauma and when it happened to me I decided to let it crack me open to shine even brighter. Through the darkness I experienced a spiritual awakening where my whole reality crumbled around me. And I started perceiving things through my intuition.

I learned the skill of hypnosis, and am able to use it to help others unlock their full potential. It brings people back to the truth held within themselves, that we are truly limitless in what we can do and who we can be. I also have become a father, which inspires me to create a reality where my son can thrive, where he can be empowered to share the truth of who he is without the old world programming his mind to fit in and play small. I wish to create a world where our children and our children's children are encouraged to follow their heart and live a fulfilling life of passion, purpose and pleasure.

About Sjors Boelaars:

Your guide on this path. I devoted the last 10 years to my tantra, yoga, and meditation practice. I had to because for most of my life I didn’t feel much. Well… that is not completely true. When I did very extreme things like downhill skateboarding, windsurfing on a stormy sea, or when I was chased by the cops for petty crime, I felt alive. For a moment life was full of sensation and full of meaning.

Till the age of 25, I enjoyed the richness of life to its full extent. I was a captain on classical sailing yachts which I sailed across the Atlantic Ocean, I worked as an innovation consultant helping corporates start sustainable initiatives and I started a fruit-based ice cream company. For a period in my life, all external things were great. Money was pouring in and there were all-night parties - on the outside life was exciting. But from the inside, I felt more empty and hollow every step of the way.

Then the burnout came. Life said STOP.

And there the journey inward started.

It started with yoga and meditation, but I longed for a tradition that would invite more liveliness, sexuality, and self-expression. For me, tantra provided that invitation.

I have studied with modern tantra schools learning all about sexual practices and dived deep into the classical tantra teachings to learn how it was done back in the days in India.

I combine these experiences with western psychotherapeutic modalities and shadow work (I am a certified Feeding your Demons therapist).

I founded Tara Academy to make these profound teachings and practices available to the wider public in an accessible and safe way.

O Museum in The Mansion was established 1980 to provide a safe haven and sanctuary where guests learn from one another and foster the development of diversity, the creative process and the human spirit.

About Steven Ebbers:

Hi! I’m Steven from Breathlife.

And I’m all about connection…connection to yourself, to others and our environment. I definitely believe we need a little more of that in the world today!

I love helping people to question their reality and reconnect them to what I call the Simple-Self. That part of you that knows exactly what it needs, how simple it may be. Whether that’s a good conversation with a good friend whilst walking through the woods , being creative, or a little dance .

When we reconnect to the Simple-Self we quickly realise how little we actually need and how we can let go of everything else that doesn't serve us.

And that’s where the breath comes in…our breathing doesn’t lie. It connects us straight to what’s alive in us, whether that’s joy or stress. There’s no hiding when it comes to the breath. Which is why it is my favourite tool!

I use all kinds of breathing modules depending on what you need; activating or relaxation techniques for shorter sessions or Conscious Connected breathing for the more deep and intense sessions.

I’ve been doing Breathwork sessions on and off for about 7 years until I got fully qualified, and I have to say: Nothing is the same once you start breathing properly!

Besides being a qualified breathwork facilitator I'm also an ICF accredited coach, I have a background in Psychology (MSc) and I’m a Firewalk Facilitator.
