Discover events and make real human connections that support your journey of self discovery.
Switzerland is full of beings quietly working on themselves, and full of events where that work happens. The two don't always find each other. Authentical.li exists to close that gap: one place where conscious communities across Switzerland share the events they love, and where you meet real people in person with shared values.
Some of us meditate. Some of us dance. Some of us sit in circles and talk about what challenges us. Whatever your path looks like, welcome Home.
We value authenticity
This is an openly inclusive space, queer and body-positive, where the full spectrum of your emotions is welcome. Wherever you are on your path, we meet each other with care and compassion, not judgment.
Authentical.li serves two sides of the same ecosystem: the people looking for growth and connection, and the beings who create the spaces for it. If you organise events, hold circles, coach, or run a community in Switzerland, this is for you too. The community is where your work finds the people it's meant for.
Most of us who facilitate do this work alone. We meet participants all the time and our peers much less often. The Swiss Facilitator Summit wants to change that: a table for facilitators based in Switzerland, newcomers and seasoned hands alike, to meet each other and talk honestly about the work.
The theme of the first edition is Collaboration over Competition. On purpose, it's a slightly uncomfortable place to start. We often work in the same spaces, and sometimes we're after the same participants, dates and audiences. What could we build if we treated each other as collaborators instead? If you've been at this for years, you know how small the field is and how rarely you get to talk about it with people who understand. If you're newer, this is a way to meet those who have walked the path before you. Either way, it's a conversation among equals, an open and held discussion rather than a stage with slides.
There is no date yet. If you facilitate in Switzerland and this speaks to you, leave your name and we'll keep you posted.
Hi, I'm Alp. I started Authentical.li in 2022 because I kept meeting people at events who had no idea how much else was out there. The group is now recognised as a reference point to discover conscious events and communities, and the project continues to grow with new initiatives: a calendar app on the way, an association founded for a community space in Zürich, a summit for facilitators taking shape. I build all of this in my own time, alongside my work, because I believe that in a world where society and technology isolate us more and more, places that bring us closer should exist.
If Authentical.li has given you something, maybe an event you'd never have found, maybe a person you're glad to know, you can support it with a donation. Your donation goes straight to me personally, not to an organisation, and it helps me cover the costs and the hours that keep this growing.

Money is only one way to help. If you'd rather give your time or your hands, get in touch.
Authentical.li is a conscious community in Switzerland that helps people find events and communities for personal growth and real connection. It works as a community of communities: meditation, dance, sharing circles, workshops and more, all shared by members in one Telegram group. It started in Zürich in 2022 and has grown past 2'000 members, with hundreds of events shared all over the country.
Authentical.li is for anyone in Switzerland drawn to conscious living, personal growth and honest connection, whatever your path looks like. It's just as much for the people who create those spaces: event organisers, facilitators, coaches and therapists who want to reach this community. You don't need to fit a label or tick every box, just bring a few shared values like openness, honesty and care.
The events cover a wide range of conscious and personal growth gatherings: meditation and breathwork, ecstatic dance, sharing circles, workshops, retreats and ceremonies. They're run by independent organisers and communities across Switzerland, not by Authentical.li itself, so each one has its own flavour. Whatever your practice looks like, there's a good chance you'll find something that fits.
Events happen all over Switzerland, with the most activity in and around Zürich, where the community started. You'll see gatherings in cities like Zürich, Geneva, Basel and Bern, as well as smaller towns and rural retreat spaces. Everything is shared in the Telegram group, so you can spot what's happening near you.
It varies by event. A lot of events are held in English, and others in the language of the region where they take place, German around Zürich, French around Geneva, and so on. The community itself is international and English-friendly, so you're welcome whatever languages you speak.
Yes, joining Authentical.li and its Telegram community is free. Individual events are run by their own organisers, so prices are set by each host, some events are free and others are paid. There's no membership fee and nothing you have to buy to be part of the community. If you find value here, we welcome donations to support the project (see Support the Mission above.)
Joining takes one step: open the Telegram group and tap to join. From there you can quietly look around and see what people are sharing, or introduce yourself and jump into the conversation, both are equally welcome. Plenty of people start by browsing events for a while before they say hello, and that's completely fine.
For now, the easiest way is Telegram's own search: open the group, tap the search icon, and type a keyword, a place or a date to pull up matching events. Since organisers post events as they come up, scrolling through recent messages also gives you a feel for what's coming. A dedicated Authentical.li events calendar, where you'll be able to filter by upcoming, nearby or specific dates, is on the way.
Rather than muting the whole community, mute just the Events topic, since that's where most of the activity happens. In Telegram, open the group, go into the Events topic, tap its name at the top and choose Mute, you'll still get the quieter conversations while events wait for you to browse whenever you like.
No, it's none of those. Authentical.li is an open, inclusive community built around personal growth, conscious events and honest connection, with no single belief system, no leader to follow, and no pressure to sign up to anything. People come as they are, meet each other with care rather than judgment, and take part however feels right to them.
