Early Years and Self-Discovery
Born in Orléans, France, into a modest, ordinary family, Laurent discovered self-hypnosis at a young age while flipping through books on the subject at his grandparents’ home. In 1989, at 17, he attended a hypnosis conference in Cap d’Agde and experienced an out-of-body episode, his first direct realization that he was not his physical body.
The Era of Entrepreneurship and Material Success
For the next two decades, Laurent pursued a worldly life, checking off the boxes of the human dream: marriage, a child, entrepreneurial success, and financial comfort. His driving force? Freedom, as defined by society’s standards.
From 1997 to 2008, he lived in New Caledonia, where he founded Neologis SARL, a thriving web design and digital marketing company during the internet boom. He built a family and enjoyed financial prosperity. Yet, despite his achievements, he felt chained rather than liberated by his business. A burnout in 2008 became a turning point, revealing that nothing in this world could offer lasting happiness.
Deconstruction and the Quest for Truth
In 2009, at 37, Laurent moved to New Zealand, officially to learn English, but truly to begin a search for truth. He delved into the hidden history of the world: politics, ancient civilizations, earthly mysteries, and extraterrestrial phenomena, which he now calls “the backstage of the dream.” In 2010, he relocated to the United States and invested €400,000 in an ambitious project, an international Multi Listing Service (MLS) program. However, his passion for uncovering truth soon overshadowed his entrepreneurial pursuits.
By 2012, he launched Stopmensonges.com, the first French-language “conspiracy” website, which peaked at 4 million unique monthly visitors by late 2014. TV crews traveled to Las Vegas to interview him, often aiming to discredit his work through media coverage.
The Inner Shift
Late 2014 marked a profound pivot. Laurent turned his focus from the material to the spiritual, meditating for hours daily, forming meditation circles in Las Vegas, and exploring shamanic practices with ayahuasca and psilocybin. In 2015, after deep mystical experiences, he abandoned commercial interests entirely, intensifying his commitment to meditation and shamanism. That year, he divorced, gave all his possessions to his ex-wife and friend, and dedicated himself fully to inner exploration.
In 2017, the veil lifted. An indescribable, intense Samadhi experience transformed his perception of the phenomenal world, leaving no possibility of turning back. Answers emerged about the final obstacles to consistent Realization (Enlightenment), guided by the teachings of Jesus in A Course in Miracles. He began hearing the inner voice of the Holy Spirit more clearly, becoming a devoted student of the Course, reading it over 30 times and practicing its true forgiveness relentlessly.
Today, Laurent continues his inner work, dissolving illusions through forgiveness. He sees himself as a perpetual learner of the Holy Spirit, guided at every moment, and shares his path openly to help others move toward Truth.
Extreme Experiences and Return to Europe
In 2018, a series of pivotal events unfolded: visions, repeated synchronicities, and an arrest in Las Vegas over a visa issue. He spent 40 days in detention in the Nevada desert before choosing to leave the U.S. Upon arriving in France, he faced another arrest at Roissy, tied to republished leaked documents on Stopmensonges.com from 2016 about the Grand Orient de France and the Grande Loge Nationale de France.
In 2019, after a brief stay in Orléans, he settled in Breil-sur-Roya, where he began hosting satsangs and spiritual workshops, laying the foundation for the “Here and Now” retreat center. In 2020, following a trial with the two Masonic lodges over the 2016 article, he offered spiritual retreats in Portugal. By 2022, he established himself in Alentejo, Portugal, near São Martinho das Amoreiras and Mooji’s Monte Sahaja center, deepening his non-dual teachings through A Course in Miracles and shamanic ceremonies.
Latin American Journey (2023–2025)
In 2023, Laurent traveled to Guatemala, leading ceremonies in San Marcos at Lake Atitlán while sharing A Course in Miracles. He then settled in Peru, hosting retreats and ceremonies.
In 2025, he moved to Spain, continuing his mission through spiritual retreats with sacred plants, satsangs, non-dual teachings, and launching the “Awakening to the Self” Masterclass on www.ichoosepeace.love.
