Valérie Marchand - Speaker on mindfulness

Doctor of Pharmacy, Mindfulness Trainer, Trainer of Trainers, Educational Director, Author

As a health professional, I am accustomed to analyzing the overall well-being of each individual. Specialized in quality approach, I have always been keen to identify strengths and weaknesses so that they can be levers for continuous improvement. For many years, I have managed and trained teams in a supportive environment. I have also measured the impact of our mindset on our health (placebo and nocebo effects) and our well-being (positive psychology and limiting beliefs). External help is sometimes necessary but insufficient; discovering and awakening our potential allows us to go further and give meaning to our actions. For this, it is necessary to learn to know oneself. Mindfulness meditation allows this reconnection to oneself and to one's own resources. It is initially a momentum towards oneself, which allows one to open up to others and the world with authenticity and creativity. I discovered this practice in 2006, after experiencing it myself, and I began to share it voluntarily with children. Children, who until the age of 5-6 are naturally in curious exploration and non-judgment, have been my teachers. My program and my book "Happy Meditation", published by Marabout, were born from this experience. For us adults too, it is easier to learn together, practicing on "easy" and "playful" things. After completing several training sessions (mindfulness for adults, adolescents, children, conference facilitation, trainer training, teaching, cardiac coherence, and communication), today, I am eager to share my tools with everyone. I intervene at the University of Lorraine, at the Sorbonne, in companies, and in training organizations: self-knowledge, stress, burnout, emotions, creativity, ... My new books published by Marabout concern adults: I make peace with my stress, I make peace with my insomnia, I make peace with my emotions, I stop overthinking.

Conference #1

Meditation, Health, and Psychosocial Skills

Pressure, stress, burnout, mental load, hyper-stimulation, success, goals, ... In this hyper-connected world, we sometimes need to relearn how to connect with ourselves. We have our own network of information in a head-body-heart dynamic: bodily intelligence, emotional intelligence, cognitive intelligence. Mindfulness meditation allows us this reconnection. When we learn to know ourselves, creativity, needs, limits, talents, and values become compasses that guide our choices and help us move forward with meaning in our actions. Understanding and fully accepting ourselves allows us to reach out to others and open ourselves to the world with authenticity and kindness. Meditation is not a performance tool but rather an appointment, a commitment to oneself, that impacts all aspects of our lives: health, work, family, relationships with others and the world. Today, it is supported by numerous medical and neuroscientific studies. It mobilizes all our psychosocial skills, helps us to be healthier, and to develop better relationships with ourselves, others, and our environment. To discuss all this, I rely on scientific foundations, but also on my personal experience. Indeed, I am both a Doctor of Pharmacy and a meditation instructor. This practice saved me after a burnout triggered while I was providing end-of-life support in the hospital. Confronted with suffering and death, unprepared, in a context of lack of time, resources, personnel, and workload, I collapsed. Meditation entered my daily life and allowed me to be grounded and to practice my profession differently. It enabled me to make conscious life choices and to tame my overwhelming mind. Today, I am eager to share this with as many people as possible, through conferences, training sessions, workshops, and personalized support. Having started this work with children, I draw inspiration from neuroscience and playful pedagogy to offer a simple, short, and playful approach.
