Vivien Nagel

Vivien grew up in a Western Buddhist environment, including four years in the surroundings of Dechen Chöling, and has been practicing meditation for over 20 years. From an early age, meditation and contemplative practices were part of her everyday life, shaping a natural relationship with mindfulness that continues to guide her work today.

She is a certified Hatha Yoga teacher and meditation instructor. Alongside her contemplative background, Vivien holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business, a Master’s degree in Corporate Health and Stress Management, and is trained as a systemic coach.

Professionally, she works in HR management at a French-German insurance company and has over seven years of experience as a freelance business yoga teacher, trainer, and coach in corporate settings. Her work focuses on management coaching, team development, and sustainable workplace health practices.

What inspires her most is bringing Buddhism, meditation, and yoga into everyday contexts such as workplaces, leadership roles, and daily life situations. Her work is shaped by curiosity, practicality, and dialogue, aiming to support individuals in integrating mindfulness-based routines into their daily lives.
