Yes, it’s true…you really can meditate anywhere!

So why not incorporate meditation into your daily routine at work and create a daily meditation routine?

Now this might sound like an idea that you do not want to further explore, but there are a lot of great benefits to be had by making the conscious choice to meditate on the job.

Based on my personal experience, I’m much more productive when I meditate throughout my work day. I work in an amazing, supportive environment where everyone believes in bettering themselves (yes, we even have a meditation room at work!) but I do realize this isn’t the case for all.

Don’t be discouraged if this type of work environment doesn’t sound familiar to you because there are ways around the stiff corporate atmosphere which will help you bring more zen into your day!

1. Schedule an extra 10-15 minutes into your morning routine and try meditating in your car before you enter work for the day! This is a great way to start the day off right and rid yourself of the morning stresses in your life such as traffic jams or getting the kids off to school on time. Set the alarm on your phone and simply sit in peace for an allotted period of time. You can even choose to listen to relaxing meditation audios in your car while doing this.

2. Most employers are required by law to give you coffee breaks throughout the day so why not take advantage of this time and meditate? Go into a meeting room, find a bench outside or make a trip to your car but find a quiet place where you can take 10 minutes of solitude for yourself.

Meditating before or at work is a great way to set yourself up for a successful day and it’s also a great way to re-focus your efforts on those days when nothing seems to be going your way!

You can choose to meditate with the goal of achieving a calm, thought-free mind (known as mindfulness meditation) or you can meditate and visualize all the successes you’ll experience throughout your day. Focusing on something positive and visualizing a successful outcome in a meditative state is a great way to actually accomplish what you want. Your subconscious mind doesn’t have the ability to separate reality from non-reality which can be advantageous if you focus on positivity and success because your subconscious will naturally work towards making your thoughts a reality!

Regardless of whether you decide to meditate to set positive, successful intentions for your day or simply to help you relax and unwind, know that you’re day will be filled with positivity, purpose and success because of it! And did I mention that you’ll be happier because of this new meditation practice too?

Make an effort to meditate at work and I promise you’ll notice your performance and your mood sky rocket to levels you’ve only imagined!
