We are interested in Corporate Mindfulness.
Where do we start?

You’ve heard about some of the largest corporations and innovative business starting to use mindfulness. Now, you’re curious about why they are providing these programs, what they look like, what are the different options, how your organization could benefit from one of these programs, and what they cost.

It can be hard to figure that out.

In most cases, your best starting point depends on your team, budget, schedule, other programming, yearly goals. There are two ways to go about it.

The quickest way to sort out what is is the best way to get started is to get in touch. We can help you find out what the possibilities are, so you can make an informed decision and know what to expect.

Alternatively, you can get started yourself. To do that you can also scroll through our FAQ page, download our brochures, and educate yourself on mindfulness as a practice. You can talk to companies who already have mindfulness programs, create your own vision, and then get in touch with us for a specific vision you already have.

How do I choose among different CM providers?

That's a great question!

Please, be aware. There are a lot of people who are facilitating group mindfulness or meditation without the necessary training. Other people are great teachers in a yoga studio, don't manage groups well or do not know what to focus on to bring a specific result forth both for the company and for your employees.

The goal for our programs and facilitating style is for mindfulness to become a practice that your team and you love, that helps you to be happy and resilient, and that you can easily implement, rather than it becoming another thing to do on an already backed-up schedule.

We recommend the following:

Checking qualifications and experience.
Meeting your facilitator even for a quick call and seeing who they are as a person. You need someone who didn't just go through a program but who can embody mindfulness and exemplify it.
Checking what kind of programs they offer - are the programs flexible and can they match your company's needs, schedule and pace. Can they offer solutions beyond a single workshop or program?
Checking their costs as they relate to deliverables and your budget.
It is best to choose a provider who has a variety of offers, who can adjust them based on your needs, and who can work with you in a long-term, sustainable partnership to get to know your people, and nourish and expand your workplace' happiness and health.

How does mindfulness help in the current
stress and mental health crisis?

Corporate mindfulness and meditation can help you to deepen awareness, cultivate different attitudes and practices that help to boost resilience, reduce inflammation, improve immune system function and promote healthier behaviors.

Firstly, you learn to get out of automatic pilot and reduce stress. You learn to regulate your attention, so that you worry less about the future or ruminate about the past. You also learn how to be less affected by difficult thoughts, regulate your emotions and cultivate a more balanced mind and body.

Furthermore, you develop the capacity to become more relaxed and ground yourself, for example through mindfulness of the body and the breath. You learn how to be kinder to yourself, listen to and respect your stress symptoms and how to take better care of yourself. Then, you can show up better both at work and in your personal life, you become a happier, more productive and more relaxed person.
