‘With more than 25 years of practice, scientific insight and hands-on exercises, I show you how to find real balance. Not a quick fix, but a path to lasting wellbeing.’

“
It does not matter if you lose your balance, as long as you know how to find your way back. Balance within yourself, balance in your life.

Reviews

What people say

★★★★★
“A deepening of my own self. Feeling with your heart and not with your head, I am worth it, finding peace within yourself. A lot of old grief comes up that you are allowed to let go of. That makes room for joy, love and inner freedom.”
Mirjam Brouwels, client
★★★★★
“Richard helps with attention and spiritual strength, making room for meaning, awareness and inner growth toward the light. Despair about life and the call of my soul for attention, with energy that had become stuck in my body, has, partly through his guidance, evolved into a joy of life in which the connection between heaven and earth ‘flows’ through my body again and I feel my inner strength and life energy once more.”
Petra Kok, client & rheumatologist
★★★★★
“Feeling that I have a right to be here, and learning to lead, are the themes that run like a common thread through my life. The consultations with Richard bring not only clarity and valuable insights, but also healing of the parts that are sometimes hard to reach on your own. His approach is practical and concrete, without getting caught up in the stories.”
Irene van den Oever, client
★★★★★
“I think the work of Richard Hoofs is very important in this age of materialism. And I endorse his idea of the healing power of the soul, or as I call it, the self-healing capacity of human beings, because we are a receiving channel for universal healing energy. I have seen this in people who have had a near-death experience, as well as in people who have come close to death.”
Pim van Lommel, cardiologist & author
★★★★★
“A wonderful book by Richard. I really enjoyed it. Extraordinarily interesting to see how far the Egyptians had already come when it came to healing.”
Jacob Slavenburg, cultural historian
★★★★★
“Richard’s books offer inspiration and insight into Eastern medicine and contribute to soulfulness and awareness for a life of human dignity. Thoughtful ideas and a valuable source for a holistic approach in daily patient care and in working with colleagues.”
Petra Kok, rheumatologist
★★★★★
“I met Richard in France, where he gave a talk on the mysticism of ancient Egypt. I bought one of his books and it moved me so much that I went on to take a training with him. Highly recommended. The lessons are personal, inspiring, confronting and enriching, and they make clear what your own contribution is and can be to your happiness in life. Or, according to the law of Maat: what you sow is what you will reap.”
