Eugénie Lambert Buckstein is the founder of BLOOM, the first modern meditation studio in France. After studying law (MA) in Paris and journalism (MA) in London, she began her career as a journalist in Toronto, Canada, before moving to London to work with CNN International. After covering many traumatic events for work, she looked at ways of taking care of her mind, exhausted by these ordeals. It was then that she discovered meditation and became particularly interested in mindfulness and mental health. After a MBSR cycle (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction Program) Eugenie decided to train in mindfulness with Brown University. The idea of BLOOM came to her naturally and she started working on the project alongside her work as a journalist before devoting herself fully to BLOOM at the end of 2019. Between her husband, her two daughters, entrepreneurial projects, and family, Eugénie manages to balance her personal and professional life thanks to meditation. She loves slowing down, playing basketball & the piano, and cooking for those she loves.
