One Day Retreat 2026
Do you follow your own path of life?
One way leads to diamonds, one way leads to gold, another leads you only to everything you're told. In your heart you wonder, which of these is true. The road that leads to nowhere, the road that leads to you.

Return to yourself and embrace your unique path
Finding and staying true to your life's path has always been a profound human quest. There is no pre-set trail, no definitive answer, and only you can discover how to navigate it. It begins with self-discovery. Who am I? Am I walking my own path, or am I following someone else's?
Rianne van de Griendt and Rokus Harder are dedicated and passionate coaches, well-equipped to assist you with your life questions. They approach this with love and respect, eager to guide you through this transformative retreat. Step out of your daily routine and take the time to reconnect with yourself. Where am I today, what do I want and what do I need?
What can you expect in this retreat?
This day offers a gentle shift from the pace of everyday life into a quieter, more spacious rhythm. We begin by arriving together, meeting one another, and exploring your intention for the day. A mindful walk through the surrounding and nature helps you to settle into selfreflection.
In creative workshops you reflect on where you are on your life's path and what is calling for attention. Throughout the day, simple body‑based exercises invite you to sense what has changed, what you need, and what you may be ready to release.
Where and if needed we use recognized methods for guidance on where you are in your life and what possible next steps could be. We close by looking ahead: What do you take with you, and how do you want to continue your journey after this retreat.
Who are we?
Rianne van de Griendt – Life & Soul Coach
I am educated as New Age and Energetic SoundTouch Therapist, as well as Spiritual Master of Angelology. This inspired me to start my New Age practice 'Nieuwetijdspraktijk Rianne'. My passion is to guide people on their life path, to activate their self-healing capacity and to pass on wisdom of life. Also I work parttime at Philips as Training & Competence Lead and Peer Coach. In this corporate world I miss spirituality and the connection with people on a deeper level; this is what I offer in my own practice. www.nieuwetijdspraktijk-rianne.nl
Rokus Harder – Life and Career Coach
In 2019 I decided to focus on personal development, and this year I've started my own practice "Compassion", see www.rokusharder.nl. The coaching I do also within Philips and I had the pleasure to guide already many people with questions around their purpose and goals in life or related to their career choices. I also organize retreat and other (personal development or coaching) events within my practice. Next to that I do work 4 days a week at Philips as Global Service Innovation Lead for MRI.
