client List
Here is a very partial list of the companies and organizations I’ve had the pleasure of working with over the years.
About me
I’m a scientist by training. I completed a PhD in engineering at McGill University, where my research focused on image-guided neurosurgery. I then worked in the private sector for a few years, which gave me a good understanding of the challenges faced in the workplace.
In 2014, after a year of part-time teaching, I made a major shift and chose to leave the world of engineering research to teach mindfulness meditation full time. In 2014, I became certified as a meditation teacher at the McLean Meditation Institute in Arizona. In 2022, I also received my certification as a Ren Xue Qi Gong teacher.
With over a decade of experience, I stand as a trailblazer in delivering meditation solutions tailored for corporate and organizational settings. Leveraging my scientific background, I offer mindfulness meditation and now also Qi Gong practices in a practical, accessible manner, resonating with audiences seeking grounded, evidence-based techniques.
Renowned for my dynamic presence and infectious enthusiasm, I excel as a speaker capable of captivating audiences of all sizes, whether intimate groups or large gatherings of 600 individuals.
testimonials
"I really enjoyed the series of introductory meditation classes. Even though I already had a good foundation and experience in meditation, it hasn't always been consistent in my life, and I feel that this time it will last much longer than a few weeks. The approach is very concrete and easy to put into practice. Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you!"
Government of Canada
"As part of our health conferences, we fell in love with you and the subject matter, which was greatly appreciated by the staff! Thank you so much!"
"Laurence's approach to teaching meditation is down-to-earth, full of tradition and humor. Through experiencing the practices offered, I've been able to find methods that work for me. In just 8 weeks, I've reduced my stress, improved my concentration, increased my creativity, found a better quality of sleep, and most importantly, filtered out the external negative energies that I tend to absorb. I continue the practice daily and recommend Laurence without hesitation."
"Personally, I've taken meditation workshops with 3 teachers, including you, and I find your course to be much more accessible and makes it much easier to integrate meditation into everyday life."
Warner Bros Games Montreal
"We've received excellent feedback from your conference! The content of your presentation was very well structured, interesting, and most importantly, allowed everyone to leave with concrete exercises to practice on a daily basis."
"I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation for the meditation sessions led by Laurence at WB Games Montreal over the past few years. These virtual sessions were a valuable part of my experience with the company.Laurence was always professional and created a space where respect and kindness were pervasive. Her ability to make human connections and listen to the needs of the participants helped make each session more relevant and beneficial.Her gentle yet thoughtful approach facilitated meditation sessions that cultivated a sense of peace and personal well-being that resonated far beyond the virtual meditation room."
