MindSight & Expanded Perception
Blindfolded seeing, intuitive development and expanded awareness.
In Vancouver and online.
Explore Beyond Ordinary Sight.
What might you discover when you slow down, listen within and explore new ways of perceiving?
Perhaps you’ve watched someone exploring colours, recognising shapes or reading while blindfolded and wondered: Could I experience that? Or you may be looking for a deeper connection with your intuition, your senses and yourself.
Through guided Mindfold practice, grounding and playful exercises, MindSight invites you to explore with your body, heart and mind engaged.
Begin with an introduction class or a three-hour Foundation Workshop, explore personalised private training, or join a community practice.
No previous experience is needed. Come with curiosity and space for something new.
What Is MindSight?
MindSight is an experiential practice exploring blindfolded seeing, intuition and expanded perception.
During guided exercises, we work with a fully opaque Mindfold, colours, shapes and other materials to explore what we notice when our usual reliance on physical sight is reduced. Grounding, gentle breathing and heart-centred attention support a settled, receptive approach.
Some participants describe experiences of real-time sight while blindfolded. Others notice colours, inner imagery, sensations or subtle intuitive impressions. Each person’s experience unfolds differently, and no particular result is guaranteed.
You are invited to describe what you notice before trying to identify it. This creates room to distinguish an immediate impression from the interpretation that follows, without rushing to an answer.
Discover More of Your Human Potential
MindSight offers an opportunity to become more attentive to how you sense, feel and respond, both during practice and in everyday life.
Together, we explore:
- Intuition and self-trust: listening inward and reflecting on what you notice.
- Presence and focus: bringing your attention into your body and the moment.
- Sensory awareness: becoming more receptive to subtle sensations and details.
- Calm and connection: using grounding and comfortable breathing to settle into practice.
- Creativity and play: approaching the unfamiliar with openness.
- Embodied awareness: exploring the relationship between body, senses, intuition, heart and mind.
You are welcome whether this is entirely new to you or part of an ongoing journey of self-discovery.

Meet Your Guide Marieke Leliveld
MindSight found me, and it continues to inspire my exploration of how we perceive, connect and experience our human potential.
As a MindSight & Expanded Perception Teacher, ICU Academy Teacher, Quantum Energy Healer and multidimensional intuitive, I bring together grounded presence, intuitive exploration and playful experiential learning.
My background as an Animal Health Technician and my work in animal communication have deepened my appreciation for sensitivity, intuition, patient observation and the multidimensional connections that exist beyond words.
In our work together, I hold space for you to feel welcome, ask questions and explore at your own pace. My approach honours your individual experience while inviting a deeper connection with your body, heart, mind, soul and inner awareness.
Experiences from Our Community
I started practicing MindSight with Marieke earlier this year 2026, and I was surprised at how much of a difference it makes in my daily life. I noticed that my perception of subtle external and internal sensations and feelings have increased considerably! This has allowed me to develop a stronger knowing and trust of my emotional and bodily intelligence. The practice of perceiving without judgement has allowed me to make decisions better informed by a deeper perception of my internal state.
As an artist, this has all resulted in increased ability to enter a flow state, and to trust what my creativity wants to express without letting my judge-mentality and conformity hijack my natural perception and creativity.

I can’t recommend Conscious Quantum classes enough! Marieke is remarkably gifted, with such a patient and gentle way of teaching. My son and I have been taking Mindsight classes with her for months. I’ve done both in person and Zoom sessions, and amazingly it works just as well over Zoom. She has a playful way with my son that makes him feel seen and draws out his curiosity without pushing. And she is opening up so much potential in both of us. I finally had a breakthrough where I could read a book through the MindFold, and my mind is blown! I’m going to keep studying with her and would recommend her to anyone interested in exploring this.

I have worked with Marieke in her mindsight classes for both my child and myself, and she is absolutely amazing. She is grounded in an ethical, heart-centered orientation and teaches these skills as a way to embody a more expansive way of being in the world. She is beautiful with kids, guiding them in a positive, playful way that helps them feel into their own potential with warmth and possibility.
She has a remarkable ability to sense where each individual is and how to help them grow into their own intuitive capacities. She carries so much wisdom, and we are deeply grateful to have met her.

This review is for the (MindSight) ICU Academy program that my 9 year old son Lucas completed and graduated from early 2022. Yet the growth continues. He has gotten so much from this experience! Lucas’ reaction after the first class was: “can we do this every day mom?” !!! We are so blessed and grateful to have had this experience with Marieke as guide, teacher and space holder! I could’ve not imagine this with anyone else for Lucas and our entire family. We all benefited from it. It was magical and it continues to be! Thank YOU

These individual experiences invite you to slow down, listen through your senses and become more attentive to non-verbal communication. Guided awareness practices and selected Mindfold exercises offer another setting for exploring connection, intuition and embodied presence.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need previous experience?
No. You do not need to consider yourself intuitive or know what to expect. The Foundation Workshop introduces the practices step by step, with space for questions and individual guidance.
What do I need for the online workshop?
Please prepare:
- A Mindfold, rather than a regular sleep mask.
- A strong flashlight, rather than a phone flashlight.
- Primary-coloured paper: red, yellow and blue.
- Transparent coloured plastic sheets: red, yellow and blue.
- White paper and pencils.
Choose a quiet, comfortable space where you can participate without interruption. A laptop or computer is preferred for following the live guidance.
Please check that you have everything ready before your workshop begins.
How can I continue after the Foundation Workshop?
Private sessions provide personalised guidance, while community practice offers opportunities to explore alongside others. Both allow you to revisit exercises, share observations, build familiarity, and develop your extraordinary abilities over time.
What if the available dates do not work for me?
Please get in touch with your preferred days and times. We can explore private training or the possibility of arranging a workshop for you and a few friends.
Do you offer MindSight for children?
Yes. Through the ICU Academy Program, I offer a dedicated space for children to explore MindSight through playful, heart-centred guidance.
What Else Might Be Possible?
Sometimes an exploration begins with a question, a moment of wonder or the feeling that there is more to discover.
If MindSight has sparked your curiosity, you are warmly invited to join me.
Explore your perception. Deepen your presence. Discover what unfolds.
