Corporate Meditation Programs

 
 

Each year, companies lose millions of dollars due to job related stress.  This is evidenced in employee absenteeism and reduced productivity and creativity, with the greatest loss coming from high job turnover. 

Professionals in the workplace who hold a daily meditation practice are able to get more done, with less effort, than their non-meditating peers.  With a decreased level of stress, these professionals create a calmer, more collaborative work environment.  On an individual level, meditators experience greater levels of productivity, increased focus and enhanced creativity. 

The health benefits of meditation for a company are extensive as well.  Employees who meditate are less likely to become sick, since meditation increases immune response.  Absenteeism due to sickness is decreased, allowing for a more productive workforce.

Most of all, employees who meditate, experience less stress and therefore are happier and calmer.  These employees express more job satisfaction, which leads to a decrease in employee turnover. When employees are happier, they feel more valued and connected to their company, which leads to increased profits and productivity.
