About Christine

Hi, I'm Christine. Besides our Bijzonder Plekje  B&B, Slapen op nummer 1, in the Veluwe, I work as a Naturopathic Therapist, integrating my original profession as a Classical Homeopath (2005) with life/health coaching and Eastern and Western Foot Zone Reflexology (TCM), Craniosacral therapy and 5 Elements nutrition (2019). My focus: energetic work with the Chakras and Auras, HSP and grounding in 5D combined with Transformation Healing (2022). Attention to restoring the connection between body and mind by grounding (432hz) in your earthly vehicle. This activates the self-healing capacity to heal on all levels. The movement is, from your head to your heart :-) 

In the wooden cottage on the grounds of our Veluwe farm, I organize one-on-one mini-retreats for women with burnout or fatigue complaints. A short break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, to recharge, get organized, reflect, and ultimately return home feeling energized and full of new insights. Coming home to yourself, allowing peace and silence, that is where feeling and inner knowing begin. Put yourself back at number 1! See "You at number 1"

Career/life path

Originally, I graduated from the Higher Hotel School in The Hague. But after a career in the corporate world, we moved in 1999, with our then-young family, from South Holland to the Veluwe. An old Veluwe farm gave us the peace and space we were looking for. A place with Ouessant sheep in the pasture, dachshund Morph, later Charly our rescue sheepdog, Obi and Ronnie running through the garden and plenty of mice for our 4 cats. A place where our children could grow up close to nature. Due to a severe burnout and the death of both parents within 1 year, this was the moment for me to completely turn the ship around. This is how I started the 7-year training to become a classical homeopath (Amersfoort), partly inspired by the vaccination issue, with which I was confronted at the birth of our children.

Until in 2010 our youngest son was diagnosed with Severe Aplastic Anemia (AA), a life-threatening rare blood disease. He was only 11 years old at the time. Years of hospital visits followed. Without me realizing it immediately, I was on a mission; to ask for space and give a voice to our child as a person who was sick and not a body that had to be fixed. A cry for help where I asked for attention to integrate both regular medical knowledge -and skills with the unprecedented, possibilities of naturopathy in the broadest sense of the word. No easy task, but supported by my sister Annette, we managed to bring both worlds together, in our own way. This path was life changing! I learned on an essential level the importance of the connection between body and mind. And so saw and felt even better how it is to be connected to the source and therefore listen to your own wisdom and intuition. And very practically speaking, how important it is to take the responsibility for your health into your own hands! Keep learning and informing yourself and having the courage, as a pioneer, to step off the beaten path.

For the health of myself and our animals (sheep, chickens, dogs and cats), but especially for our youngest son, I came into contact with Yvonne and Peter of CBD SPAIN even before they moved to Spain in 2015. And now 9 years later, my sister and I, with our company CBD & Herb, are now the official distributor of CBD Spain products in the Netherlands/Europe, in our eyes the purest, most complete, healing, organic and even only CBDa oil in Europe. Whereby I have now specialized in providing professional advice about CBDa/CBGa products that can be used for people and Annette is particularly focused on CBDa oil and its effects on animals. 

At the same time, CBD & Herb is developing into a platform, where the purest products are offered to people who are looking for other/complementary ways of healing and health. Personal advice and guidance and sharing our years of naturopathic knowledge and experience is our driving force and at the same time our passion. Annette and I complement each other, each from their own uniqueness and talents, in a special way.

I see myself primarily as a life/health coach with attention to body, mind and soul. Besides naturopathic knowledge, I am particularly experienced in seeking "the best of ALL worlds" Whereby energetic work and the importance of frequencies are increasingly coming to the forefront. When our son, in 2020, underwent a life-saving operation due to a brain hemorrhage/left-sided paralysis, I was very aware of the knowledge and expertise of the scientific medical world. But at the same time I have a deep knowledge, that true healing of diseases, a holistic vision (seeing the person in their totality) and approach is more appropriate.
