Reviews for The Wild Roots Guide

"Ive experience the session as coming home."

Nienke Catherina Thurlings

Stress expert and psychologist

There are a lot of things that are falling into place after our session. I feel more calm and have got a lot of clarity. I tried to explain to people what happens during the session, but a lot of it is more on the energetic realm and is hard to put to words. I've experienced it as coming home. Returning to, or remembering, my own unique self. The session put a lot of things in motion for me and I'm so grateful for this! Thank you.

"With Sanne you’re in good, soil-covered hands!"

Leneth

Intuitive mentor and yogi

I had the honour of experiencing a nature connection walk with Sanne as our guide. In the middle of the ‘Biesbosch’, she introduced us not just to all the healing herbs around us, but also to a part of our own inner nature with a silent, mindful walk, delicious herbal tea and overall a beautiful afternoon to slow down.

Her wisdom is unwavering and she shares it in an inspiring and gentle way, making it digestible and exciting to learn more about nature, plants, animals and everything else that presented itself on our walk. The nature connection walk exceeded any expectation. We went home with our own ointment kit, to create remedies at home with plants and herbs we picked ourselves, which was so exciting.

If you were to ever have the chance to go outside with Sanne as your guide, or learn from her wisdom through an online course or digital guide, don’t hesitate for a moment.

"I highly recommend Wild Medicine"

Nicola Wood

Spaceholder and poet

Journeying on the Wild Medicine course with Sanne is an in-depth exploration of herbs/plant medicine not just through the science and intellect but Sanne also supports you to trust your own senses and intuition when it comes to connecting with each herb/plant. Sanne is a generous and knowledgable guide and I highly recommend Wild Medicine!

"she encourages you to find your own connection with earth and your unique path."

Pippa

Author, oracle and alchemist

Sanne has a fresh youthful energy combined with the energy of an old and wise woman. She's very connected to the earth and all of the earth´s medicine, in the most ancient, simple way. You can feel that in every fiber of her work, from how she connects with the group, with individuals, the earth and in the practices.

The young energy feels playful and light, with little status and fuss, yet deeply rooted in an ancient connection of earth. She has this way to translate this wisdom in the moment, that result in deep connection and exploration.

Sanne show´s you the ancient knowledge of the earth and everything it can give us and how we can open ourselves to this ancient soul wisdom. Sanne´s greatest strength is her emphasis on the wisdom around us and within us, she does not put herself on a pedestal, but she encourages you to find your own connection with earth, your path and direction.

Sanne's way of working feels like a very non-Western way of guiding, very ancient, like the way our ancestors would guide each other.

"It will exceed all your expectations."

Liona

Spiritual mentor and healer

Sanne works with such a refined attunement during our 1-1 time. She knew how to make me gain great insights with very subtle questions. Even before our session in nature, a field opened up for me that gave me so many insights into where I was strict with myself, not completely in trust with my own intuition and truth.

The magic and safety that arose in our day together was and is actually incomprehensible. How Sanne supported me in how I could communicate with nature was amazing! The icing on the cake was that within a minute we were face to face with a group of wild horses that gave me so many answers to questions that had remained unanswered.

I can really recommend a day with Sanne. It will exceed all your expectations.

"It felt like connecting to old wisdom which was buried inside me."

Entering Wild Medicine felt a little bit like connecting to old wisdom which was buried inside me. The fact that it is so deeply grounded also made me feel really grounded and rooted.

"Sanne really hears and sees you."

She is such a gentle, warm woman who really hears and sees you. She listens and guides you.

"Thank you for this beautiful encounter with Mother Earth."

Nora

Natuur pedagoog en oprichter van de Natuurboerderij

Accompanied by a small group we went into nature for an afternoon. I felt at peace at the beautiful spot in the Drents Friese Wold. Sanne gave us beautiful exercises with which I helped me to connect with myself and with the earth. The exercises matched the natural energy of the season and were accompanied by homemade tea and nourishing food.

Thank you Sanne for this beautiful encounter with Mother Earth.

"She encourages you to listen to your intuition."

Gea

I have attended several workshops/sessions with Sanne and enjoy them every time. Besides being a very sweet and calm person, she has a lot of wisdom and knowledge to share. She does this in a natural and interactive way and encourages you to listen to your intuition.

" I've done meditations before, but this was something else."

Roosa

Outdoor lover

The grounding I experienced doing the journey, was impressive. It was the best I've ever experienced. I've done meditations before, but this was something else. I can't find words about the peace I found. I was so calm, even in the darkness of the night.

Thanks to the peaceful guidancee of Sanne, I felt so safe and supported. It was such a beautiful experience!

"She encourages her coachees to sink into their authentic self."

Tine

Forest bathing guide and adventurer

Sanne is a very sweet, social, calm and strong woman. She stays true to herself and encourages her coachees to sink into their authentic self and accept themselves completely as they are.

We share our love for nature where we like to camp and are always up for adventures and, among other things, making fires. (Our dream is to organize fun trips for you, so that will come 🤗).

"Great combination between excellent information and intuitive play."

Tessa

Creative and poet

Somatic forest bathing
One of the first things we did when we arrived at the Drents Friese Wold was to take off our shoes. It was lovely to walk barefoot across the heather.

One of the assignments was to walk around, find a spot where you felt comfortable, and sit there for a while. I couldn't find my spot, and kept wandering around. On one hand this was confronting, but on the other hand it also gave me the insight that I did feel calm while walking, which let to a deep insight and better understanding of myself.

Once we got back, we had a nice conversation about what we had experienced separately while enjoying healthy snacks. Sanne confirmed to me that it was not strange that I couldn't find my spot yet, and would rather walk around a bit more. I liked that I felt the freedom to do what felt good, and could practice this in a safe setting.

Herbal workshop
What immediately struck me was the beautiful table with carefully displayed products, herbs in jars and all sorts of things that made me curious. I could see that a lot of work and dedication went into it.

It was nice and playful to see if we could feel into the effects of the herbs through our senses and intuition, before getting the information. This also allowed me to better understand which herbs might suit me.

It was nice that Sanne encouraged me to go for the herbs that I felt attracted to.

The workshop was a nice combination of excellent information, and intuitively checking in with myself, feeling into what suits me, messing around with making the herbal scrub, and of course putting on our homemade masks together.

"Her work is transformative."

Sal

Spaceholder and creator

I had the pleasure of working with Sanne. When I met her I was in a pretty rough place, I feel that her guidance helped me to get back on my feet so much quicker. I now feel like I'm back in my own strength again, better at communicating boundaries and less weight down by the past. Her work is transformative.

"Deep dive into a relationship with nature."

Hadas

Working with Sanne a deep dive into a relationship with nature, slow down and live in tune with the seasons.

Sanne is a beacon of calmness. She helped me to see the power that lays within me and the way I can use this strength. Her approach helped me to feel more connected with myself, having more energy and I have learned how to integrate nature into my day to day life.

"The course has helped me to connect with nature so much deeper."

Ada

The course has helped me to connect with nature so much deeper. I feel inspired to go outdoors every day now and know how I can incorporate aspects of nature in my days.

"The walk brought valuable insights."

Peter

Outdoor instructor

The Walk With Nature was relaxing and inspiring. It was a nice mix between learning about crafts & exercises. My partner needed some time to get into the exercises, but soon he found them very special and it brought him valuable insights.

"Sanne helped me to come back to my body, to myself, without having to talk through old stories."

Bas

IT Specialist

When I booked a session with Sanne I didn't know what to expect. I'm not really a kind of person to talk about my feelings, I can have a hard time opening up. Sanne helped me to come back to my body, to myself, without having to talk through old stories. I found it to be an interesting process and I was amazed how much lighter I felt after the session. I can definitely recommend Sanne.
