What happens when you don’t just think through a choice, but actually experience it?
 
We are used to making important decisions by gathering information, comparing possibilities and weighing up arguments. Yet when it comes to choices that truly matter, doubt can still arise. You may have considered everything carefully and still not know what feels right.
 
Place It adds a different way of exploring a choice. The different options are literally placed in the physical space and explored. By moving, observing what you experience and reflecting afterwards, new information can emerge — information that may remain less visible through thinking alone.
In Place It for Professionals, Tessa van Rossen explains the method step by step and connects practical application with insights from embodied cognition, interoception, somatic markers and experiential learning. She shows how Place It can be applied in coaching and therapy, education and career guidance, and within organisations, with particular attention to professional guidance, safety, ethics and personal ownership.
 
The book is also an invitation to further research. What effects can be measured? What processes may play a role? And what can we learn when thinking, doing, experiencing and reflecting are brought together in a single decision-making process?
