'It's not often that you meet people there is such a strong alignment between what and why they do something and how they do it. In Into the Light, Daan and Wendy took me on what felt like a safari through my own inner jungle. They showed me that I have everything it takes to be closer to myself, to set clear boundaries and to be less emotional during stressful moments.'

'Into the Heart has reminded me of balance, of how everything is connected within me. It has brought me back to balance between the masculine, the feminine, the light and the dark. It was a great gift. No nonsense, logical and at the same time pleasantly meandering’.

'I work hard, enjoy life thoroughly, and had never meditated before. The Awakened Leadership Journey took me into a new world. “Why would I need this, what can I get out of it?” I wondered. The answer to this question is different for everyone. It is a personal journey, with the group supporting you. I learned to look around me and reflect on what I do, instead of living on impulses. The Awakened Leadership model helped me to position myself.'

'What an incredible journey these five days have been. For me, Into the Light was about connecting with who I really am and unlocking so much more of my potential. Experiencing the interconnectedness of everything makes me very grateful.'

'I have been working with Realize Us for a long time. I really appreciate the 24 hour immersions and the retreats, and develop myself so fast. I was looking for a way to further incorporate the profound peace and insights I gain in such sessions into my daily life. The Awakened Leadership Journey was a combination of immersion and space to make a growth spurt. I feel so much more connected to myself now. I stand firmer, use my intuition more easily and am less distracted by ego or patterns. I also feel much calmer.'

'Online Awakening is a nice anchor point during the month for me. A fixed moment of silence, reflection, connection with myself, the group and source - so that I start the new month with a clear intention. Meditating together is so much more powerful than meditating alone! It helps me to sink deeper, so that surprising things can arise. Daan and Wendy create a warm, soft, safe space in which everything is welcome. After the meeting I feel recharged, calm and centered. Delicious! Thanks for the nice moments!'

'Daniel and Wendy are my guides and tour companions. Traveling together, that's how I experience it. Love and truth; that's a powerful combination.'

'Twice a year we meet with the Awakened Leadership Circle. Twice a year a 24 hour immersion journey with a group of special people. Time and space to be, to support others in their journey, to reflect on where I stand and what I need to be a 'wholehearted leader'. What a wealth to be able to continue to grow together like this.'

'For me, Into the Heart was about being grateful for what has been, and at the same time planting seeds for something new. I had partly lost myself in the whirlpool of hard work and guiltily focusing on what I had failed to do. I have recovered the lost parts. It's 'All of Me' again. This is not overlooked, this is not wellness either, this is taking steps in self-awareness. I entered the new year with fresh eyes.'

'I experienced the Seasonal Awakening as a bath of warmth and connection to myself, the people around me, and the bigger picture. A very nice way to pause, acknowledge and celebrate what is, and to set intentions for the coming period, in line with the power of nature. A compact retreat with a big impact.'
