Stress control-Meditate

#10. Meditate

Okay, I can hear it now, "Oh Yeah Hippy, Want Us to Meditate do ya." Absolutely!  Look whilst meditation has certainly been a thing of fringe groups in western society or associated with more eastern religions many researchers are now coming to the distinct conclusion that meditation can make a huge difference to our day-to-day lives and helps us to overcome stress.

The core advantage meditation will play in your office is to help you to relax and deal with challenging situations more effectively.  The more relaxed you are the more creative you can be in dealing with any issues that arise.  I certainly recommend that when you are meditating, that you use baroque music with your meditation as it will help increase the alpha waves which will help lead you to a calm feeling.  This is especially useful if you do not have a long period to meditate.  I recommend a 20 minute meditation session at least once a day preferably two. You will be really surprised the difference it makes to your day. Just try it out, you have nothing to loose and the rest of your life to gain

The office environment in these millennia is far more stressful than they were a century ago, but there are things you can do about it but it is up to you.  Remember, we only have one life and it is not a dress rehearsal so get out and reduce the stress your office gives you and have some fun.  To finish off let me reiterate the ten things you can do to reduce your stress at the office.
