Why Meditate? All Here and Heartfulness in Lausanne.

Why meditate? That question was at the heart of a thought-provoking evening hosted by Heartfulness Switzerland in Lausanne, in celebration of World Meditation Day, as recognised by the United Nations.

All Here Meditation Institute was invited to participate in La Méditation, pourquoi faire?, a round-table discussion where the Institute shared insights on the science of meditation.

Expertly moderated by Lydia Gabor, the conversation sparked rich and constructive exchanges among science, lived experience, and contemplative practice.

Insights from Neuroscience

Invited to the table, Prof. Christoph Michel, Chief Neuroscientific Director at All Here, shared the latest findings in meditation neuroscience.

Honouring Traditions, Embracing Modern Science

The conversation broached how to preserve ancient meditation traditions while bringing practice into the 21st century.

Practice, Dialogue and Connections

Guided meditation moments and a lively Q&A contributed to a grounded and inspiring atmosphere.

Rounding out the All Here team were Loup Vuarnesson, Rodrigo Elizalde, Monika Stasytyte, and Founder Erkin Bek, who engaged with speakers and participants, inspired about the future of meditation.

We are grateful to Heartfulness Switzerland for the invitation, and to Dominique Durelle, Director, and Aurélie Andriamialison, Communications Lead, for their thoughtful coordination and warm welcome.
