Landed, back to the body | Lisette Thooft | TEDxArnhem

Lisette Thooft was living in her head for years, cut off from her feelings - like most of us. But she managed to find her way back to her body. And she discovered that truth, beauty, creativity and goodness are all in the body, not in the mind. When you feel whatever there is to feel, you have access to inner peace and safety. - See more at: http://www.tedxarnhem.com/lisette-tho... My career began as a freelance journalist, all alone behind my desk. As I grew bolder, I started to speak for audiences. Later still, I organized and led workshops and  ‘living room lectures’ in intimate settings. Then I trained to be a coach. So now I still write - stories for spiritual magazines and self-help books - but I also coach people. And the next thing is: I’m going back to school, to train to be a hands-on body worker. And wasn’t it a long way down… Down into body consciousness, down to Earth, down into trust and real connection. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
