Riet Aarsse
Riët has been guiding meditations (insight meditation/vipassana and heart qualities/metta), retreats and theory and practical courses since 2012. In 2012 she came into contact with Insight Dialogue (ID) and discovered the power of meditation-in-interaction.
Riët spent a lot of time in retreat in Asia and more recently in the West. The depth of Buddhist psychology in combination with Western insights and her own practice are the basis of her lessons. She likes to pass on what she has received from her teachers (including Sayadaw U Nandamala, ven Vivekananda, Carol Wilson, Gregory Kramer, Phyllis Hicks) to others, preferably with humor and clarity.
Riët worked as a research psychologist (Phd) and quality manager in youth care, mental health care and addiction care. As a mentor and coach, she guides people individually and in groups on their path. She is the initiator of Amsterdam Insight Meditation, teacher Insight Dialogue and affiliated with the collective retreat guides vipassana.nu. She teaches Buddhist psychology and early Buddhist texts at the Buddhist seminary at the VU.
