Professional Development

More and more individuals have been taking note of the benefits of meditation, which include lower stress levels, improved cognitive functioning, creative thinking and productivity. With the lure of constant stimulation — the pervasive demand of pings, rings and updates – attention span, productivity and personal interactions are compromised. Mindfulness can turn the challenges of leadership into opportunities for personal and professional growth because of its ability to train attention and develop the capacity for self-regulation. In our professional development programs, we teach individuals self-awareness and improve their ability to focus. Participants will better understand themselves, their thoughts, their feelings and develop an internal compass to enhance the quality of the lives they live both in and out of the workplace.

Educators

Successful educators know they require more than subject matter expertise to manage the classroom environment. They need social intelligence and emotional balance to apply teaching strategies effectively. Our professional development workshops link teachers to best practices to nurture self-awareness, improve attention, build healthy communication skills, and personalize a repertoire of self-care practices to reduce reactivity, stress and burnout.

Corporate & Healthcare

Professionals often overlook the impact that mounting workloads, multiple demands, highly stressful environments, and constant connection to technology have on their ability to perform to their highest potential. Our training programs address the skills professionals need to improve attention, creativity and productivity in the workplace. Through team building activities and group dialogue, participants identify their strengths; create strategies where there are challenges; and build interpersonal skills to foster collaboration and teamwork.
