Hello

About the Book

Hello: Who Are You? is a composition of philosophical, psychological, spiritual, and coaching methodologies. It was intentionally written in a light-hearted conversational and interactive style and kept condensed to not overload the reader. The aim is to make it absorbable, reflective, and to introduce different methodologies in order to stimulate self-inquiry and research into others’ ways of thinking, religions, and ultimately, in the meaning of our existence. It is also intended to catalyze questioning and dialogue while including all on our journey to higher consciousness. It also intends to promote independent quality of thinking, which, hopefully, will lead us into taking full responsibility for all our actions and behavior and help us to recognize the impact we have on our world. The central theme throughout Hello: Who Are You? is that our main purpose on earth is to raise our own as well as our collective consciousness to the benefit and contribution to others and our world. “The essence of being in a nutshell” (H. Scholts, garden designer and artist featured in the Book and BBC program Around the World in 80 Gardens by Monty Don). “Spectacular! A treasure” (Dr. F. Kromhout; kinesiology, chiropractor, and creator of the Kinesio Balance range of health supplements). “Hello makes me feel safe, loved, and that I am not alone—that everything is okay” (Demeye de Leeuw; daughter, fourteen years old).
