10:00 am - 10:30 am
For most of us getting ill is an inevitable part of life. In these meetings we want to explore what it means to be ill while walking the path of the Diamond Approach. How to meditate and inquire when you feel physically not well and in pain? Being ill probably gives you feelings of uncertainty and fear. How to stay present with all of that? Is there a transformational force in living with illness? Let’s explore and share that with each other.
Ridhwan teachers Odile van Eck and Maria van Balen organise 4 online meetings on Wednesday 15 January, 12 February, 12 March, 23 April 2025, 10.00 - 12.30 CET on zoom.
Who can participate?
These four meetings are for students in Europe and the UK who are dealing with illness or the ongoing impact of having been ill, and want to explore what this means for the unfoldment of their soul.
What we will do
We will have four online meetings of 2½ hours each.
Topics we will explore are: the loss of health and the identification with the body; fears and anxiety; living on the edge of the unknown; letting go and grief; the transformational force of illness.

The meeting will be guided by two Diamond Approach teachers
Odile van Eck: Becoming severely ill has become part of my reality. Living on the edge of the unknown has shaken up my identity in a profound way. There have been losses and there have been gifts. It has all led to a deep ongoing inquiry about life and death. Are they really two different things or much more connected than we usually perceive?
Maria van Balen: Already at a young age my Soul was drawn to people who are ill. I think because mostly their consciousness is more expanded. It became my work to guide people with cancer and other (chronic) severe illnesses. As a teacher in the Diamond Approach I want to support students on their Path, who have been affected by illness.
