Ria Baeck

Ria Baeck, holding a master degree in Clinical Psychogy (KULeven) and living in Belgium, is a transformational change professional who has a rich background of experience and interests. She founded Vitis whose core purpose is to bring deep transformation in individuals, organisations and society.
Her earlier work was in psychotherapy integrating the body in the process of healing. She is now a coach and mentor, who combines deep compassion, bodily awareness and a lust for life, to facilitate transformation in individuals, groups and larger systems. She trained in and worked with Systemic and Organizational Constellations, revealing the hidden dynamics in human systems and bringing them into flow again.

The synergy of her different trainings and expertise gives her the skills to discern easily the origin of blockages in an organisation: in the realm of the relationships, in the organisational structure or in the individual. Because she draws on the mental, the emotional and the intuitive knowing, it often brings totally new and fresh solutions in a short time.

Ria’s personal interest is in the field of Leadership and Consciousness and how this relates to Communities – in work and daily life. She worked primarily in the area of personal development, coaching and the social profit sector, and she moves into leadership for business and global systems. She is fascinated by ‘What else is possible?’

Collective Presencing: Four Years Later

Collective Presencing: Embracing a New Paradigm


In the first two articles in this series, we introduced collective presencing as a new human capacity emerging at this time. The first article described a journey of individual and collective deepening and widening through a set of practices that can, over time, allow us first to achieve collective wisdom and later to become generative of more life. The second article took a more detailed look at the first phase in the process: what it takes to become a Circle of Presence. We promised that the next article would treat the next phase, the Circle of Creation. On deeper reflection we came to see that the transition to the Circle of Creation represents such a paradigm shift that some wider context is needed before we broach that subject. This article offers that.

The Village Way

Practices for Belonging in a Fragmented World

For thousands of years, we lived according to the principles of village life. Then, around the 14th Century, our lives were reorganized by rulers around growth and accumulation – often at the cost of community, equity, and the living Earth. What would it mean to return to simplicity, and mutual care?

Join us for a 9-month inquiry into this question, exploring how we participate together in a time that calls us back to community, resilience, and shared life,
