"Through this practice, I've learned to recognize stress or unease early on and how to act on it. 

I've also learned to let go of certain thoughts while making space for others. 

Marieke brings light, is clear and motivating."

"I've learned to be in the moment and to appriciate them. I implanted the "frisse blik" concept stronger in my life. Marieke is very smart, initiative, zen, very clear and calm and can teach and explain  very well."

"After the training, I found it easier to shift my focus to my breathing and what I was feeling, while also applying kindness towards myself. In short, it was an excellent training! 

Marieke is open, approachable, and pleasant. The materials were top-notch, and there was clear guidance before, during, and after each session."

"I discovered that I find it difficult to determine where my boundaries are, both mentally and physically. I am now much more aware of this. Additionally, I’m more aware of how (quickly) I do things and why. 

Marieke is very approachable and listens attentively to the participants. She gives them time to share their findings, which allows her to respond well to what has been said. She asks good questions."

"For me, it was a refreshing update of previous shorter mindfulness exercises. It then went much deeper, helping me rediscover moments of happiness from my carefree past. 

Marieke creates a sense of equality, making the training feel credible, and she has a very pleasant voice."

"I have learned to be still with myself, to meditate, to look at things with a new perspective. I also now know to take better care of myself and how and to make time for myself. 

Marieke was always well-prepared and guided the exercises very clearly."

"Mindfulness was new to me. I have learned so much, especially in the area of meditation. I can now enjoy fun personal moments more.

Looking back over the past two years, the course was the starting point for many positive changes in my life.

I recommend it to everyone."

"What I learned during the training is slowing down, awareness, being in the moment, and taking time for myself. Marieke is enthusiastic, honest, knowledgeable, and interested. I would love to participate in a follow-up training and the next Silent Day Retreat."

"I no longer let myself get caught up in 'panic thoughts' in stressful situations. 

That feeling is there, and it's allowed to be there. This brings peace. 

Marieke leads wonderful meditations and conveys them very well."

"The structure of the training helped me to  pay (more) conscious attention to myself. It made me feel so much calmer and helped me make choices that felt right for me. Taking better care of myself.

Marieke is a caring and helpful trainer, communicates well, and manages expectations beforehand. Another quality is that she shares her own experiences when requested."

Wat ik van Marieke heb geleerd zijn de mindful momentjes op de dag die mijn mijn leven hebben opgepimpt. Ze is begripvol, geïnteresseerd, open rustig en een mooie leidinggevende, een echte juf!

"I followed the 8-week training with Marieke. I found her online, and after a pleasant introductory conversation, I decided to take the course. Marieke radiates calm and creates a pleasant and safe environment to share your experiences and feelings about the assignments. The silent afternoon was also a special experience. 

Thanks to her expert and professional approach, I have gained tools to live more mindfully. 

Highly recommended! "

Thank you! Barbara
