Meet our founders

Our story.

Ivo, Ahilan, Pascal, and Oliver are the innovative minds behind BE LIGHT. Their journey began in high-paced international corporations, excelling as scientists, consultants, producers, and managers.

Driven by self-awareness and a desire for positive impact, they studied frequencies, neuroscience, and practiced breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, and yoga with renowned practitioners. Their global pursuit of knowledge enriched their understanding and personal growth.

This journey led to BE LIGHT's creation, aiming to revolutionize modern meditation, making it accessible and meaningful for the 21st century. BE LIGHT combines classical meditation benefits with advanced technology, offering transformative experiences without extensive preparation.

Dedicated to harnessing the mind’s power and the body’s self-healing abilities, BE LIGHT’s mission is to balance minds and emotions, fostering happier and healthier lives.

Even before BE LIGHT's official inception, the founders laid its foundation through global workshops and events using therapeutic light and sound brainwave systems, empowering thousands and enhancing well-being. Positive feedback and global demand inspired them to create the first science-based audio and visual app.

The BE LIGHT method blends ancient wisdom with cutting-edge technology, rooted in the latest neuroscience. Each session combines special light and sound frequencies with breathwork and meditation, providing a unique, accessible, and powerful experience. Discover BE LIGHT – as app, at a live event or in the metaverse.

As a musician and sound engineer, I specialize in creating energy flow and vibrations through light and sound. My goal is to empower everyone to connect with their inner wisdom.

For me, BE LIGHT is the most effective way to connect with your inner self. If everyone had the opportunity to connect with their true inner needs, the world would be a more peaceful place.

I’m passionate about science and meditation and truly believe we can combine both worlds. As a technologist and innovator as well as with several decades of meditation and personal transformation experience, I love to help bring an integrated and deeply meaningful solution like BE LIGHT to people who are on their own journey to better health, awareness, and fulfilment in their lives.

Bridging the gap between modern science and ancient wisdom is a beautiful challenge to learn from leading-edge neuroscience and combining that with deeply grounded meditation practices. And we’re only at the beginning of what BE LIGHT can do.

Gesine Haag

Advisor, Brand & Marketing 

📍 Spain

My passion is to empower people. I'm passionate about BE LIGHT because it trailblazes the use of music and light to enhance our minds by leveraging cutting-edge science and technology.

Ways to raise my frequency have changed my life. I spent much time in "stress mode," but my true potential emerges in the "flow zone." BE LIGHT provides a quick solution to shift and rewire my nervous system from stress to calm.
