Learning to live from love of life

Become a source of love in what you do.

Surrender takes practice

Dare to stop steering, and be carried.

Trust takes root in reality

Seeing what is there, and letting that be enough.

Love you learn by living

And life is learned by loving.

Confidence you learn in falling

In every trap lies an invitation to soften.

Rest is an act of courage

Daring to be quiet in a world that runs.

The road arises when you walk it

Practicing not-knowing and still moving forward.

Courage must be practiced

Being very afraid and doing it anyway.

Learning to trust life

Surrendering to the flow, and learning to move with it.

Live from the inside out

Do you know what you want to do or who you want to be, but does fear or doubt hold you back?

At Customized Training Pathways Practice courage, grounding and loving action.

Everyone is welcome, all it takes is good will and the decision to get started.

What you practice?

on the basis of the six keys

I am

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

To recognize your own source, that quiet, creative point from which you know what is true for you. You will learn to listen to your intuition, and from there, give direction to what you do and don't do.

Value

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

To see what you possess and how that can be meaningful to the world around you.

You practice finding balance between giving and receiving, doing and not doing, effort and rest.

Property

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

Taking ownership of your own life and taking possession of what you need to live your I am to be able to live. You explore how to manage land, labor and capital in a healthy, conscious way.

Earth

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

Aligning your actions with the reality of nature.

You will learn to see rhythm, boundaries and rest as part of your work so that you can live rooted and sustainable.

Relationship

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

Being present in contact, with yourself, with others and with the bigger picture.

You practice speaking honestly and really listening from love and trust without being naive.

Organization

{{brizy_dc_image_alt imageSrc=

Create forms where cooperation can flow freely and equally. You learn to listen to the middle, where decisions do not force themselves but emerge. You learn to think organically at all.

Jac Hielema

I guide people in clarifying their I Am and developing the courage to live from it, from the inside out. My work is rooted in observing psychological and social processes, just as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749 - 1832) observed life processes in nature. With gentle sharpness, humor and loving discipline, I make the six keys and free-equal thinking concrete and workable in your practice.

Tasting courage must!

If you want to live from the inside out, but lack courage, I offer a personal practice path. You explore who you are, how to live your star, and how to shape that in your own way in the life and work you do. Using the six keys, you will work step by step toward inner clarity, practical grounding and loving action.

"The reason these exercises work is that they are rooted in spiritual truth."

“I had started training in manual therapy, but I doubted if I could do it. Jac asked me to write down what my real expectations and fears were. That was difficult, but at the same time liberating: I was invited to reflect on what was really alive in me, exactly as it was, at a critical and testing time. Jac read that, or rather, he listened met volle aandacht naar wat ik had neer gepend, en schreef vervolgens een begeleiding die mijn hoop en mijn angst respecteerde, maar vooral mij als mens. Met die bemoediging was het niet moeilijk om de oefeningen te doen en de rust te vinden die ik nodig had. Het hielp me om de opleiding met meer openheid te volgen, om te leren en ervan te genieten, en het hielp me om te slagen. Veel lessen, zoals het waarnemen van mijn denken precies zoals het op dat moment is, zonder oordeel, maar juist met liefde, zijn me bijgebleven. De reden dat deze oefeningen werken, is dat ze geworteld zijn in geestelijke waarheid. Of, anders gezegd: ze zijn gebaseerd op die levensfeiten die je alleen kunt ontdekken door naar binnen te kijken."

"Jac's guidance helped me to dare to stand still in that forest," he said."

“I had the opportunity to be one of the first to be able to do a pathway with Jac. For as long as I can remember, I have struggled with the question of 'who am I really?' Like everyone around me was walking their path and I was always just picking paths through the trees. That was the reason I became a participant in the Learning Art of Living Together. That helped, but still all my musings felt like a tangle of cooked spaghetti. Jac saw this and offered me his help. He asked me to put my spaghetti knit unstructured on paper and send it to him. In it he found topics to discuss, both during a walk and via email. He gave me exercises to work with. Within a few weeks the spaghetti unraveled a bit, allowing me to make leaps in my own development. I believe Jac's guidance helped me dare to stand still in that forest. Just sitting together on a tree trunk and feeling the ground. And then I suddenly knew who I am. My path became clear and that is what I am walking."

"Jac's exercises made me look at myself more lovingly and patiently."

“I participated in the Customized Scholingsweg because I kept bumping up against my 'shadows' (in other words, getting into the danger and strategy triangles) when performing my master's thesis, which was costing me a lot of energy and sometimes made me want to give up. Jac's exercises made me look at myself more lovingly and patiently, and gave me confidence to keep going anyway. Not, as I was used to all my life, by continuing by 'pounding', but by standing still now and then and speaking to myself lovingly. Jac's feedback also inspired my own interpretation of one of the exercises. Another exercise (i.e. my inner sage versus my internal 'Alderman Hekking') exposed very clearly for me my internal process, allowing me to look at it more closely and better understand where that always critical 'Hekking' came from.
