Between Buddhist Wisdom and Modern Psychotherapy
An evening for everyone who wants to pause, gain new perspectives, and reflect more consciously on their life path: At the Diessen Conversation about God and the World, Buddhist philosophy, meditation, and psychological research come together in an open exchange.
Mindfulness as a Path to More Clarity
The Buddhist teacher Lisa Svensson demonstrates how the teachings of Buddha can help to understand oneself, daily life, and personal challenges better. The focus is on mindfulness and self-compassion – two central approaches to a more conscious spirituality and a kinder interaction with oneself.
Spiritual Experience Meets Psychological Expertise
Lisa Svensson is a therapist and coach in Munich. She combines meditation and Buddhism with Western science, thereby bridging the gap between religious experience, psychotherapy, and modern life practice. Her work includes meditation and Buddhist practice groups as well as multi-day retreats.
