WORKSPACE MEDITATION

Workspace Meditation was founded by Arian Young, a former Tibetan Buddhist nun who has been meditating for over 30 years. Having trained and coached meditation for; executives, professionals and groups for over ten years, she recognised that we spend most of our waking hours at work. It made sense  that today's corporations and organisations don't have time for a more traditional approach to meditation. Arian's insight as an executive meditation coach, brings meditation into the 21st century workspace, so that the modern on the go 24 hour - 7 day professional, becomes more proficient and creative in the way they manage workplace stress.

Enlightened companies are recognising the importance of workplace wellness. They can now aspire to have self-aware people and better leaders through meditation training, without a radical change to their daily schedule. Our non-religious corporate meditation training, teaches practical and effective tools that help people to focus their minds and assist them to effortlessly become, more productive and aware.  
This supports optimal performance and influences postive change.  

Our Workspace Meditation training tools are diverse in range, and appeal to a broad cross section, because of their accessible and simple nature.  Our programs are designed specifically to help access inner peace, increase alertness and quiet confidence whenever you need it - whilst sitting at your desk, in and during meetings, on the phone, or whether you're busy applying business analysis or strategic planning. We believe our training tools become enduring, powerful life skills that awaken appropriate thinking and responsible action, both professionally and personally.
