The Passage2025-06-19T07:40:39+00:00

EXPERIENCE

The Passage

Consciously saying goodbye while the body is still present. No hall full of people, no social expectations - just your bond. A 1-on-1 ceremony that honors the unique energetic field between you. The unrepeatable days before the body is no longer there, lived fully consciously.

When death reveals itself, a force field emerges between two worlds

In those moments, all veils fall away. A space opens up between heaven and earth - tangible, overwhelmingly present, charged with love and transformation. This is the Passage. But what do we usually do? We flee into logistics. We arrange, plan, organize. The mental energy this requires pulls us away from reality: someone we love is passing.

The days when the physical body is still present are unrepeatable. A unique energetic field is created between you. This time is critical to your grieving process - because soon this body will no longer be there. This reality often does not penetrate until months later, when it is too late.

The Passage is the ritual in which you say goodbye in full awareness. No auditorium full of people who have their own agendas. No social expectations. This is about your bond. About what may be recognized and honored in it.

The Process

The Passage guides you through three essential movements: from claiming this unique moment, to acknowledging the definitive reality, to the conscious transformation where your paths diverge. Each part receives the time and space it deserves - because this can only happen once.

The Moment

Here, everything unfinished gets its space. Guilt, unspoken words, love that wants to be expressed. Death is definitive - this is your last chance to be completely authentic. Family and friends have their own emotions, you quickly lose connection with yourself.

The Reality

And then it's over. Definitive. You won't get this sacred time back. That's why it's essential that you can later fall back on a farewell that was truly yours. From rest, from who you really are. What still needs to be said, felt?

The Transformation

The Passage marks the moment when your paths diverge. Raw grief gets all the space it needs. Your shared story is honored. The transformation is acknowledged - they toward the unseen, you continuing your life. It becomes an anchor point in your unique connection.

For funeral directors2025-06-12T15:05:04+00:00

This ceremony can only take place in the short period when the physical body is still present - a one-time opportunity that never returns. The bereaved deserve to know this option exists for a conscious, personal farewell that benefits their grief process. Help them by offering The Passage as a complement to traditional funerals. I created The Passage from my own experience with loss - insufficient attention is paid to what the bereaved truly need in these crucial days. It's time to change this.

Reviews

"I would definitely recommend Susanne. She knows exactly what she is doing and brings it so calmly and lovingly." - Marieke

"Susanne has a fine sense of what is needed and offers a nice balance between connecting with the group and leaving room for individual processes. Very nice how she puts together a programme in advance and looks in the moment to see what is needed and welcome. I felt very comfortable, safe and carried." - Dionne

"Susanne provides a safe environment as a facilitator in which it is easy to open up. She is intuitively tremendously strong, creative, straightforward and at the same time open and soft at sensitive moments. Susanne is a facilitator I would recommend to anyone." - Remco

‘This woman knows what she's talking about.’ - Mariënne

"I will definitely recommend Susanne. She knows what she is talking about - there is depth and through and through experience. She feels the group and people perfectly and is very caring. Everything is perfectly prepared: music, exercises, materials and the venue." - Rita

"Susanne helped me get much deeper to my feelings. Her skill and sensitivity made me feel safe and dared to follow the process and feel emotions through. I have released many old emotions in recent months and people see the difference. I highly recommend her." - Rutger

"Susanne creates a nice, homely atmosphere with careful preparation. After an unexpected pregnancy and miscarriage, she guided me very well. She is sensitive, received the same messages as me, and was able to really support me in my process. Unforced and effective. Immensely grateful for this special experience!" - Angela

"With you I dared to be, let go, face the grief and really experience it. Your own life wisdom and the relaxed way you guided the sessions gave me many tools to take on this process myself. The physical experiencing in different ways made each session more lightness and clarity." - Hiske

"Susanne is a beautiful, powerful woman who has learnt to guide others to their strength through her own loss. She is loving, empathetic and knows just the right chord to get you back to yourself. She has more than enough tools and experience to guide people and knows how to make the journey just a little bit lighter with her humour. Highly recommended!" - Angela Lauwers

"I would always recommend Susanne! She brings perspective to grief and peace at the same time. It's not a “concept” but a real deepening into your body. With her, grief is not just loss of a loved one, but finding peace within yourself again. Everyone's process is allowed to be there - mourning has no one way. You start to feel in yourself what your way is. As I said at the conclusion: 'Without you, I would never do this.' Deep thanks!" - Jana

"Susanne creates a safe bed to be vulnerable and allow. She combines deep wisdom and lived experience with gentleness and incisiveness. Grateful for all the insights and deep pieces I was able to look at with her. Highly recommended!" - Sanne

"I know few people who have so turned their own pain and sorrow into their OWN WISCES with capital letters. Susanne has the gift of embracing the very thing you shun most - the pain - and helping you emerge from it with an actual pearl in your hand and heart. She is your torch on the parts where it gets very dark, which then makes it lighter. Without forgetting what was, we look to the future. Bringing everything visible and invisible, conscious and unconscious, her guidance is invaluable. I am glad to have come across you." - Anne

"Susanne is one of the few people I heartily recommend. The sessions are magical. Her knowledge, skill and beautiful energy create a safe environment where I could really be myself. She sensed me perfectly, knew what I needed and when to slow down."
