Rein

My name is Rein (38). I was born and raised near Amsterdam and now live with great joy in the northern part of North Holland. The nature here deeply nourishes me, and you’ll often find me in the forest, the dunes, or by the sea. Alongside my love for nature, I have a deep interest in spirituality and personal development. At the same time, I am very grounded. I spent many years working in the financial sector, mainly as a trainer and coach.

My personal development journey truly accelerated in 2013. Experiences with anxiety, panic, and eventually burnout forced me to take an honest look at myself. Who am I really? What brings me joy? Who do I want to surround myself with? I realized that in many ways I was living a life I thought I should live, seeking acceptance, love, and validation from others. Step by step, the voice of my heart and intuition grew clearer, and I began shaping my life in a way that genuinely felt aligned.

Thankfully, I didn’t walk this path alone. Over the past 13 years, I have worked with various therapists, coaches, teachers and mentors. I participated in group therapy and men’s circles, and followed a wide range of workshops, trainings, and courses — including plant medicine ceremonies. My first experience was with ayahuasca, which was intense yet exactly what I needed at the time. It showed me how my need for control was actually a form of self-sabotage.

In the years that followed, other plant medicines came into my life, including truffles and mushrooms. In my experience, psilocybin carries a gentler, more subtle energy compared to the more directive nature of ayahuasca. When people ask me what it does for me, I often say: it opens my heart and awareness, deepens my connection to my feelings, and reveals what lies beneath my protective mechanisms. It frequently brings clear insights around dilemmas or choices I’m facing in everyday life.

After many personal journeys, I began receiving a strong inner calling to guide others in these profound experiences. I started years ago facilitating ceremonies from my home. Nowadays I work from my own warm and welcoming location. Each time, it feels magical to hold space for your journey. Creating a safe, loving, and powerful container in which everything is welcome, all in service of your personal growth and transformation.

I look forward to meeting you at my location in Akersloot!
