Introduction to me…

Hey there, I’m Joris! For the past five years, I’ve been on an incredible journey, exploring the landscapes of Europe and immersing myself in the vibrant communities of eco-villages in countries like Germany, Denmark, and Switzerland. Volunteering in these beautiful places has gifted me the opportunity to connect with a diverse array of wonderful individuals.

Throughout my community life, I’ve discovered that I’m truly a communicator at heart. Engaging in deep conversations on spiritual topics brings me immense joy and fulfillment, and it’s during these moments that I feel like I’ve tapped into my soul mission.

In the grand tapestry of life, I firmly believe in following one’s enthusiasm, pursuing what brings genuine joy. Recognizing my love for meaningful conversations and my passion for spiritual exploration, my ‘soul path’ became crystal clear.

My heart whispered to me, urging me to embrace the path of a spiritual counselor. And let me tell you, I absolutely love the work I do. Counseling, for me, is not just a profession; it’s my way of being of service to humanity and a channel through which I follow my joy. Isn’t it truly amazing how aligning with our passions can lead us to meaningful and fulfilling paths in life.

With great enthusiasm I am now offering my counselling services to you. Would you like to learn more? Then have a look at the counselling page for more information about the sessions.

About the counsellor

Name: Joris Elschot. Born in: The Netherlands.

I’ve been interested in nature for as long as I can remember.

As a nature person I like to go for long walks in nature. I enjoy taking a break from the ‘energetic chaos’ of modern society. I love the purity and soft energy that I experience in nature. I feel at home in nature and experience feelings of freedom, wonder, magic and joy. In the silent moments in nature we can learn so much about who we really are. Nature has been a wonderful teacher for me.

Often I like to go in nature to meditate and connect to Source that lives within. As a spiritual counsellor it is important to connect to the Source (God) on a daily basis. I connect with Source and surrender the small self. In such moments I deeply feel the energy of love and appreciation.

In the spring, summer and autumn I regularly go wild foraging. I really enjoy the abundance of edible plants, berries, mushrooms and nuts. It gives me a lot of joy to collect my own meal in nature. Nature gives so many wonderful gifts, I feel very grateful! Nature brings a lot of abundance and beauty in my life.

Another thing I really enjoy is gardening. I love volunteering at permaculture projects in countries like Germany and Switzerland. For me a garden is not just about creating abundance, it is also a place for connecting. The garden is a place for connecting to mother nature and connecting with the Source within.

As I always say… The connected human being is the Powerful human being! Let’s connect with nature, our soulfamily and Spirit!
