Our Team

ON A MISSION TO RECONNECT PEOPLE TO THEIR WILD NATURE.

We envision our team as a growing community of contributors, nature guardians, facilitators, researchers, and wisdom keepers who are convinced that the challenges of the future are best addressed by reconnecting with our wild nature, within the community of life. Will you join us?

A Sacred Union

Sacred Systems began as a vision moving through Lineke - the synthesis of a lifetime of work across healing, anthropology, community, regeneration and embodied practice. Simon responded to the call to be in service to Life, through her.

Lineke and Simon bring together feminine and masculine perspectives as complementary ways of being, knowing and creating. Their partnership is itself part of the inquiry: what becomes possible when these forces meet in relationship, rather than hierarchy or opposition?

Together, they are nurturing Sacred Systems as an emerging field of knowledge, practice and connection.

  • Lineke Heus

    SOURCE, FACILITATOR & GUIDE

    I devote myself to leading wise, meaningful and practical community based alternatives to the enormous challenges we collectively face with contemporary life. 

    SacredSystems is the distillation and creative expression of my journey, my longings, my learnings and my life force. It is my contribution to midwifing a better world, one that speaks through my being, one I yearn for us to share. Read full bio here.

  • Simon Confino

    FACILITATOR & GUIDE

    ​​With a background in organizational psychology, Simon coaches teams and organisations to fulfil their purpose and thrive. Simon’s gift is a deep understanding of optimal work cultures based in trust, connection, and purpose.

    Simons love for the Earth and all living beings is at the heart of his passion for community and new paradigm initiatives. This love is at the heart of his book ‘Fossil Fools’ - an ecopsychological science fiction story.
