Ancient meditation goes high tech!


Google has been in the news for a different reason recently.  They are another of the leading companies that have introduced meditation to their employees in Silicon Valley.

Their view is that meditation teaches their employees to manage their emotions better, as well as make them better workers in the process.

I stand behind Google on this one. Having conducted meditation training for companies such as Siemens Healthcare, Ogilvy and Mather, Airtel, Bordier and Cie, Abacus Capital, The Malaysian Liver Foundation, J. Walter Thompson, The Times of India Group, HCL Technologies & Albert David Inc. to name just a few, I know Google is on the right track.
Repeated studies have demonstrated that meditation can rewire how the brain responds to stress. Boston University researchers showed that after as little as three and a half hours of meditation training, subjects tend to react less to emotionally charged images. Other research also suggests that meditation improves working memory and executive function.

So in addition to all the other benefits of meditation I have written about earlier, you can now add being a more productive and creative individual to the list!

So start off the New Year with a gift to yourself (and to everyone around you too) by adopting the path of meditation into your life!
