Who am I ?
My name is Clare (Claire Loiseleur). I was born in July 1971 in France. The eldest of six children, I learned to play the violin and studied agricultural engineering. Married at the age of 22, I have welcome in my body eleven children who were born on the four continents where we lived. All born within our couple intimacy in an atmosphere of peace and respect, my children have been brought up in a free and autonomous way, close to nature.
Since 2009, I’ve been living in the Andes in Bolivia, where I’ve just founded the ¡Viva la Vida! center, to offer children with cancer natural healing with all the respect and love they deserve.
I am a mum
I am mother of a mega-family
Between January 1996 and August 2015, I had the blessing of welcoming eleven children, born on the four continents where we lived… Here are some images set to music from this fabulous adventure…
I am a musician
I’m an adventurer
To make our dreams come true, we dared to leave everything behind
and set off on an adventure to the other side of the world, with our many
children…
I am fascinated by living beings, passionate about life and in love with nature
I am a Life Sciences Engineer
After completing my scientific baccalaureate, I deliberately chose to pursue studies related to life, because it was the field that most attracted and inspired me. I spent two years in preparatory classes in Advanced Biology and Specialized Biology Mathematics at the Lycée Saint Louis in Paris. In September 1991, I entered the National Agronomic School of Montpellier (now Institut Agro Montpellier), where I earned an engineering degree in general agronomy. I then pursued advanced studies at the National Center for Agricultural Studies of Hot Regions in Montpellier (now part of Institut Agro Montpellier), drawn by my interest in southern hemisphere countries, particularly Africa. This allowed me to obtain a second engineering degree in tropical agronomy, specializing in social water management.
We were called “life engineers”. I love this designation—it resonates deeply with my soul’s calling. An engineer is someone who applies creativity and ingenuity to solve practical problems. Personally, I have a deep love for nature and I am convinced that it holds the solutions to most of the life-related challenges we face. Concretely, I feel called to propose solutions that help children with cancer regenerate their health naturally, with all the respect and love they deserve (following the principles of natural health). Moreover, I feel called, in a second phase, to work on my own scale to help restore life to desertified areas, so that children can have abundant access to fresh, nourishing food in regions affected by famine (guided by the principles of natural agriculture).
I’m an idealist and a realist
I’m driven by a strong ideal of a better world, but what makes me happy is to bring the reality I live ever closer to this ideal. In this sense, I love the quote by Albert Schweitzer, who said: « The ideal is to us what a star is to a sailor. It cannot be reached, but it remains a guide. »
I’m driven by a strong ideal of a better world, which I call « New World », but what I find fulfilling is to bring the reality I live ever closer to this ideal. In this respect, I love the following words of Albert Schweitzer : « The ideal is to us what a star is to a sailor. It cannot be reached, but it remains a guide. »
The areas that particularly interest me are related to life. They are natural health, natural education and natural agriculture.
After devoting more than 25 years of my life to raising my own children in a free and autonomous way, close to nature, I received the call to create the ¡Viva la Vida! center, whose mission is to offer children with cancer a natural regeneration of their health with all the Respect and Love they deserve.
I am also the initiator of the Pachamama fertile gardens project.
Finally, I am the author of the Lights for a New World books, in order to share my experience and thus contribute to the construction of a New World, a better world governed by Love.
What I call the New World is an ideal world in which we dream of living, a better world, a more beautiful, fairer, more harmonious one, more pleasant to live in and, ultimately, happier. A world free of fear and ego games. A world governed by the forces of authentic, unconditional and universal love. A world where peace, joy, tolerance and kindness have become the norm.
Gandhi said: « Be the change you want to see in the world », and it’s up to each of us to act at our own level to build this New World starting now. Let’s stop criticizing everything we don’t like on this Earth: it’s a waste of time and energy!
Let’s put on our glasses of love, and together, increasingly aligned with the ideal we feel deep in our hearts, let’s be the brave builders of a better world, knowing that, as Albert Schweitzer said: « The ideal is for us what a star is for the sailor. It cannot be reached, but it remains a guide. »
The expression « Lights for a New World » is explained on the following page :
