Meditation for Workplace

11 a.m.-Noon, Falcon Center

Hosted by Campus Recreation Yoga Instructor Emma O. (contact Ryan Rudesill for more information)

The workplace can often be a source of intense stress, anxiety and burnout. However, it can also be an ideal place for mindfulness and meditation. Meditating at work can reduce stress and frustration, while also boosting focus, compassion, energy and productivity. At a time when so many of us spend a large portion of our lives at our jobs, the office may actually be the easiest and most consistent place to schedule meditation into our calendars! Learn how meditation while working can lead to a happier, healthier and more productive workplace.
