The Shen Foundation's History

"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished" Lao Tse

The Foundation has been calling on leaders and people worldwide, who share a common mission to unite, awaken, and raise the Earth's energy in harmony with all life forms. Since 2008, we have organized numerous conferences, inviting representatives from WHO and the UN, as well as leaders from various fields, including indigenous people. Our goal has been to protect the earth and awaken higher dimensional consciousness. This work has been ongoing and continues today.

Global Healing Through Personal Health and Responsibility

At this stage, we are teaching "4Times4Health, at the Lötschberg in Kippel, Switzerland" a practice focused on grounding individual energy. This grounding enables individuals to connect with like-minded people, building a high vibration to collectively uplift Earth's energy. We believe that by connecting with nature and cultivating inner balance, individuals can achieve their goals and positively impact the world around them sustainably and harmoniously.

Join us for our classes, retreats and conferences at the Lötschberg, Kippel and for a life changing journey.

Brigitte Burgisser is an entrepreneur and founder of eShortRental.com, a booking platform providing furnished accommodation in the Geneva – Lausanne region since 2006. Her journey to creating eShortRental began in the late 90’s when she was an expat working in private banking for some of the leading International banks. After working in 3 continents, 6 countries and moving 10 times, she returned to Switzerland. She founded eShortRental.com, an online real estate portal with a personal touch and has helped many professionals, families and visitors find their homes in Switzerland.

Since childhood, she felt an urge that society should take more responsibility for its actions for the wellbeing of humanity. With all the knowledge and existing technology, she feels that the potential to achieve a more sensible and equal world for human and nature has yet to be reached. Brigitte is the executive director of The Shen Foundation and is responsible for the day-to-day operations.

Lyell McLean Parry has been involved with the Shen Foundation since 2019.

He lives in Stockholm, Sweden, primarily working with Shiatsu and other treatments.

Lyell's diverse background spans across continents, from his roots in New Zealand to his

experiences in Singapore, Australia ,Canada, and the USA. His professional journey began

as a Landscape Designer, where he honed his skills in creating private gardens.

Lyell has a wealth of experience in the Inner Peace Movement, spanning 14 years of

lecturing around the world on various aspects of personal development.

The driving force behind his involvement with the Shen Foundation is a desire to help

people create a simple, stress-free lifestyle and, through this, set the foundations for a

society that will nurture this planet rather than destroy it.
