Lot | De Livingsessies

I am Lot.

The essence of my life? Touching and being touched.

Deep, real, simple, raw and clean.

I am Lot, I live in De Livingsessies.
It is my business and my Living, our living room.

I have been intrigued by people, by their being and their bodies all my life.

I can be so deeply fascinated by the choices they make,
the passions they embody, the conversations we have.

I am a psychologist and therapist and worked as a psychologist for many years and supervisor of adults and young people. I discovered more and more
twists and turns of the human brain, my own way of speaking and mostly listening. It touched me, and I was touched. It was my way.

Until I got sick.

I was sick for a long time. Deeply sick. Completely sick. Because that's how I do everything in my life. That's me.
All talk of doing vanished in an instant. What followed was only silence.

I learned to listen in a different way: to the silence, to myself, to my body.
Suddenly it was there. That screaming, shouting body I'd ignored for so many years. How was that possible? How crazy is it that no one teaches us that there's so much more than our heads and our thoughts.
That beautiful, fantastic body of ours: oh boy!

Cut off from the outside world and society, I—a cliché of clichés, I know—came ever closer to myself and my body. To who I truly am, what I feel, what being honest and authentic means, what's good for me, and what I have to offer.

I met transformational breath and it was love at first sight.

A new world opened up! Without speaking, you can connect deeply with your body.
and by breathing you can experience more and more freedom.
I don't want to keep this love to myself: let's spread some love.

I am enthusiastic, good at 'being present' and sensing what's needed.
They call me positive in heart and soul.

I am interested and amazed, I enjoy having deep conversations and can totally lose myself in vanlife and walks.

I cook best without a recipe.

I love people and nature, being on the road and golden lattes, restaurants and palm trees, poetry and bird sounds, art and waves, vegetables and bare feet, double digits and sneakers.

I can create and facilitate the right atmosphere. I am intuitive and deeply sensitive.

That’s why the spaces I spend a lot of time in (like De Living) tend to feel just right. And the Living Sessions are far more than just sessions...

That's why I fell in love with breathing.

That's me.

And also The Living Sessions.
