I Was at The HEALING SUMMIT 2017

What a setting for the HEALING SUMMIT 2017: 18 speakers and 115 participants from 23 countries united by one idea: to build a global healing community and to bring holistic approaches not only into our personal but also into our corporate worlds.

Isn’t this idea too brave, too out of the business box, almost too naive?

Many friends of mine, ambitious and highly successful in their careers as scientists, bankers, heads of human resources and entrepreneurs slightly amused lifted their eyebrows when I explained this to them.

Haven’t we all been told for decades that being good and doing good is merely a nice add-on to our careers, but by no means the catalyst of our economic successes?

If only these friends had joined me at the HEALING SUMMIT 2017, held on the 6th and 7th of March this year in the opulent ballroom of Berlin’s Hotel De Rome. Not only because of the profound speeches given by highly acclaimed speakers. Such as Dr. Marjorie Woollacott, emerita professor of neuroscience at the University of Oregon, whose insight into the way meditation not only changes the human brain individually, but also connects us with all other human beings, would have clearly convinced the scientists.

 

Speakers that make you, shift your mind

We learned about the need of meaningful communication. 

The need for meaningful connections and communication was discussed and highlighted by Catherine Parish, founder and president of NextLevel Leadership Inc. and Claudia Roth, Founder & Managing Director Soul Luxury. My human resource manager friend would have been impressed.

My solely sales oriented entrepreneur friends would have benefitted greatly from listen to the talks given by Asa Siegel, founder of STAMBA Superfoods or Rupert Schmid, chairman of Biologique Recherche, as their successful companies are firmly grounded in a social responsibility.

And my highly stressed banker friend from London may have felt the wish to change careers after listening to Gina Preziosa, sales and marketing manager of Shankara skin care. This amazing company not only donates 100 percent of its net profits to global humanitarian work, and blesses every product before it leaves the factory, but also provides daily morning meditation sessions for the entire staff – imagine that, my friend!

Sharing knowledge and supporting each other instead of being competitors. 

But most of all I would have wanted my skeptical friends to participate in the networking breaks and workshops. Here they would have met people who actually don’t spend their time hugging trees and chanting mantras. They would have met ambitious, pragmatic business people from sectors as diverse as the hotel industry, over NGO’s to medical doctors and scientists. Successful people who would rather share their knowledge than keeping it to themselves. Who support and encourage one another rather than label others simply as competitors.

The networking breaks saw topics discussed with great enthusiasm: How can I communicate my charity work – and what effect will it have on my customers? Where can I find support to make my NGO more flourishing? What stops me from being more successful, what are the boundaries in my mind that I have to overcome?

All of these diverse characters demonstrated the message of the HEALING SUMMIT 2017: do good and your own world will be better, personally and in business. It really is that simple.

Learn How to Meditate - 7 Simple Tips for Everyone Learn How to Meditate - 7 Simple Tips for EveryoneLearning how to meditate can be intimidating. But as with everything: practice makes perfect. In today’s article (link in bio), Lahra Tatriele shares 7 tips that will ease your journey:1. Before you start, put in your mind, “Meditation is attainable for me.” It is not difficult.2. Sit in a relaxed position for your body – on the floor or on a chair.3. Choose an object of focus that makes you feel good, e.g.: breathing, a mandala painting or a photo/image, etc.
Use this as a tool to bring harmony and love to your mind.
Use it as a way to bring about concentration and mindfulness4. Turn your vision inward and observe your breathing.
By observing your breathing, you will calm your mind naturally.
Observe the fickle-mindedness of your mind coming in and fading away, bringing about a steady concentration. Allow your concentration to turn into contemplation and slowly, you will forget about both yourself and any form, effortlessly blossoming into meditation.5. Become a source of love and light.
Once your calm mind is steady, let love permeate within you and around you like a radiant light.6. For healing, gently direct your thoughts to make your body healthy, alleviate your mind of stress, send your love to someone in suffering, etc.
Bring inner wisdom to your mind so that it becomes increasingly harmonious, and use this for healing the body, trauma or others in your life.7. Let go and let spirit in.
If you know how to meditate it will train your mind to become good, full of love – enough to heal yourself and others. Ultimately, there will be no Form, only Atma or soul in union with the Divine.Do you meditate regularly?
