About Alex
I was born & raised in Sursee and studied Marketing & Communication at the Universities of Lugano and Geneva. Returning to Central Switzerland after these inspiring years of learning, I was happy to find a challenging marketing position in the corporate world close to home. Thats where I spend more than 10 years, most of them in different leadership roles that kept me engaged and fullfilled. With leadership comes a lot of power, but also responsibility and an extensive workload. This is what led me to my first mindfulness course in 2015. Since then, a steady yoga and mindfulness practice has helped me stay focused & balanced both in my professional and personal life.
Over the years, I was able to attend numerous personal development and leadership courses. My passion for continuous growth lead me to become a yoga & meditation teacher myself in 2019 (360 AYA). For the same reason, I continued my education as a corporate mindfulness teacher of one of the most impactful trainings I did throughout my career: the Search Inside Yourself Leadership Program. Originally developed at Google, Search Inside Yourself (SIY) combines the latest neuroscientific findings on mindfulness with a training in emotional intelligence specifically targeted to the business environment. Please find out more about SIY and my work at the Swiss Mindfulness Institute HERE.
As the various mindfulness & meditation tools have helped me so much throughout the years, I am more than happy to share them with the world today. My goal is to contribute in making meditation & mindfulness more practical & accessible, so that more and more people can benefit from them in the future.
