Why mindfulness is important in the workplace
Practicing mindfulness not only has many benefits for individuals but also has a positive impact in the workplace. Mindfulness helps to build a healthy work environment by improving well-being, relationships, focus and creativity.
Humans have been practicing mindfulness meditation for thousands of years but only recently mindfulness entered the business world because we now have the ability to do the one thing that was never possible before: observe how mindfulness changes the brain.
The brain benefits from just 8 weeks practice
A Mindfulness Course is proven to be an excellent way to learn the basics of mindfulness and to start experiencing its benefits. Research using brain imaging has shown that mindfulness meditation changes both brain structure and brain activation patterns. As little as eight weeks of practice is long enough for lasting effects.
