READY TO BECOME THE BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF?

The way we approach life blocks us from our full potential. Rather than listening to our intuition, we fear, we doubt, we look for assurances from others. We have lost our connection with nature, our ability to live to the fullest and to adapt to reality.

Today, make the decision to reconnect with your pure self, with the essence of your life. Invest in finding your deep connection. In FEELING and TRUSTING again.

TOGETHER WE EXPLORE

  • How to build a strong inner peace and trust
  • How to face stress effectively
  • How to master our body and mind
  • How to live in harmony with reality
  • Powerful tools to use at home

Together we create an experience to never forget!

HAPPY PEOPLE

  • Fiona
    " Marie was a great instructor! Her joy for the wonders of icebaths were really contagious and she was very empathetic with everyone's presence, concerns and ideas. She held the space for us to dive in deep and discover what our minds and bodies are capable of. If anyone is thinking about trying something new - I'd recommend it to do it under Marie's guidance and within her presence. "

WELCOME, HOW NICE IS IT THAT YOU’VE FOUND YOUR WAY TO MY PAGE

WHO AM I?

I am Marie, 31 years old, painter, mother, but above all very sensitive soul. From the age of 10, I firmly knew I was brought to this world to convey beauty and emotion. I have been doing this with devotion through my art, my paintings, my ceramics ever since.

At an emotionally challenging moment in my life, I “accidently” attended a Wim Hof Method workshop. That day, a whole new world opened for me. New, but at the same time it felt so familiar. Without expectations and with an open mind, I literally let the power of the method take over, and realized that everything I needed to be strong, happy and healthy was already inside of me.

In very little time, the method brought tranquility in my life, and a deep sense of trust in the future. The cold gave me the chance to understand that my body hosts a very strong life force, meant to be here. As a very sensitive person, the breath helped me to canalize my emotions, to let all the feelings I have in my heart flow and to feel peace.

In 2023, I followed the Certification Program at the Wim Hof Academy, after which I created my own workshops, following my heartbeat.

MY MISSION

My mission is to bring more beauty and emotion to this world. I like to compare the cold and breath therapy to a painting: it brings the beauty from inside the artist, the practitioner, to the outside, through glow, emotions, energy. Through just being, in this moment. It conveys a message, a feeling, from heart to heart. It unlocks an innate potential, a teacher inside of each practitioner. For more than 12 years, I have been conveying emotions and reconnecting people with their feelings through my paintings. I feel the same sensitivity is needed to pass on the power of the cold and the breath with a sense of trust, safety and know-how.

When Wim Hof told me “now it is your turn to save lives“, this was the ultimate confirmation of the strong inner fire burning in me. As “a life that touches others goes on forever” is really what powers my existence on earth.

"Love is the bridge between you and everything." - Rumi

COLD AND BREATH THERAPY

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?
  • Less stress
  • Better sleep
  • More time for yourself with simple tools
  • An inner getaway, always present
  • Improved mood
  • More energy and better performance
  • Stronger immunity

BREATH

The breath is our life force. It is the tool to go deep inside ourselves and to make a change. Breathing has a direct emotional, physiological and psychological impact, and we can learn how to influence those systems.

The right breathing gets you to a natural state of being better inside by improving your blood flow, your energy levels, your metabolism, your immunity, increasing your consciousness and lowering anxiety.

COLD

The cold is a teacher: it teaches you to use the power of your mind. In a comfortable society where we have lost this connection, it is a wonderful tool for a healthy mental and physical body.

The cold boosts your energy, diminishes pain and creates resilience, releases happy hormones, strengthens your immunity, trains your cardiovascular system and improves your mental health by feeling your capacity to transcend limits.

MINDSET

We focus on a shift of mindset: from avoidance to growth.

From fear to trust. When we believe in our ability to face discomfort, we are able to face so much more.

From thinking to feeling. What is life expecting from your true, authentic self, instead of conditioning?

Together we get in touch again with this incredible potential we all hold inside, in order to optimize the way we approach life.

“The cold made me instantly understand from the inside. When you feel it, you feel it. It’s like falling in love. It requires no explanation.” - Wim Hof

INSIDE THE ATELIER

 

Moments, bodies, memories are fading. You will fail to recall what you saw, what you heard, sometimes even what you did. But did you ever forget how someone made you feel?

 

In her delicate paintings and large-sized charcoal drawings, Marie Genicot (°1993) explores a variety of human emotions. She regards emotions not just as a mirror of the soul, but also as a power and uniqueness to paint her personal journey and stories. To capture this myriad of feelings, she works with various media ranging from oil painting, over watercolors, cyanotypes, to unique techniques of the Flemish Primitives and craftmanship.

From the age of 10, her youthful curiosity and creative explorations led her to picture her own sensitivity and express her emotions through art. Marie studied Fashion Design at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Antwerp. Later on, she refined her painting skills. While achieving a Master Degree in History of Art, she decided to follow and trust her dream. Marie established her own atelier. A large panel of people were immediately attracted and captivated by her subjects and particular style. Her audience is impressed by the mysterious, fragile and intimate aspects of her work.

Marie’s paintings and drawings face the spectator with familiar emotions. But emotions that are often challenging to express. Delicate portraits and scenes invite to a confrontation with the inner self. They are a dialogue. A dialogue between the spectator and the depicted. A dialogue between the spectator and his/her soul. A dialogue between all of us.

Her work is a quest for that precious soul, and for what will remain of us and will be kept alive after we leave our physical bodies. As we will continue to live on in others, and as others continue to live on in us, it is a tribute to what brings us all together and creates unity.
