Meditation

Meditation is a practice where an individual uses a technique – such as mindfulness, or focusing the mind on a particular object, thought, or activity – to train attention and awareness, and achieve a mentally clear and emotionally calm and stable state. Scholars have found meditation difficult to define, as practices vary both between traditions and within them. Meditation has been shown to increase quality of life, lower blood pressure, and cholesterol, reduce stress, enhance sleep quality, improve problem-solving skills and much more.

This instructor-led class will relax the body and calm your mind. Basic meditation techniques are introduced, including focus on the breath, visualisation and the practice of self-enquiry to observe habitual thought patterns and attitudes. You will learn to manage stress, develop positive thinking & self confidence and increase productivity through the ability to focus the mind at will.

Developing a Program

  • A meditation program should begin with some initial training that teaches employees how to meditate.
  • Employers can provide access to in-person training, online classes, recorded materials or a combination of all of these.Once they know the basics, employees can meditate on their own, in groups or (depending on the technique) using guided meditation with a pre-recorded session or with a live instructor online or in person.
