The Origin
The story of Inspira Heart Institute is an inspiring narrative about the creation of an institution that was born organically and without pretension, with the sole desire to share with others the incredible results that the Founder, Patricia Lim, achieved throughout her own journey of self-knowledge, self-development, and physical, mental, and emotional healing.
Throughout her career as an executive in the field of People Management and Human Development in large national and international organizations, Patricia leaned towards the area of health and well-being, developing a strong, consistent, and successful program in elevating satisfaction, engagement, and happiness in the workplace. There were countless continuous actions and activities based on her employees' perceptions of care and practices adopted to create a light, healthy environment with a strong sense of belonging.
This program became the ‘apple of the eye’ not only for the organization she led in the Human Resources area but also for all other UN system agencies where she served as Chair of the Human Resources Network, leading various interagency actions for over a decade.
Her passion grew even stronger as she deepened her studies and practices in the areas of neuroscience, psychophysiology, and positive psychology, applying these techniques in the workplace as well as in her personal life. A new sense of mission became increasingly clear, and the calling grew stronger.
A very difficult decision was necessary: to leave the UN and follow the call of her heart! Patricia then realized her plan after years of preparation: to undertake a journey of profound and transformative studies and experiences around the world! She traveled to almost every continent for exactly one year, participating in courses, trainings, workshops, conferences, and retreats, in addition to epic adventures that challenged her physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Now, with a rich and diverse background, full of tools and knowledge to add to the programs and services that the Institute offers, Inspira Heart seeks to empower people to co-create the life of their dreams, promoting a positive impact that expands to all personal and professional relationships.
The mission of Inspira Heart Institute is to empower individuals, reminding them of their responsibility and capacity for personal transformation, which in turn transforms their environment and life. The pursuit of happiness is seen as a path that generates a cascading effect of positivity, resulting in more collaborative, productive, healthy, and resilient environments. Truly happy people create and maintain safer and more engaged spaces, contributing to collective well-being.
Through techniques proven by neuroscience and psychophysiology, Inspira Heart Institute empowers individuals and organizations to achieve their best version, promoting a more prosperous and harmonious society. The result is continuous improvement in performance, health, and happiness, not just for the individual but for the entire community. The Institute facilitates the transformation of lives, leaving a legacy of positivity and love, demonstrating that by taking care of ourselves, we can transform the world around us.
