Day 13: mindfulness meditation for productivity

14 day mindfulness meditation challenge

A mindfulness meditation guide for productivity at work:

1. Find a quiet and comfortable place: To start with, find a quiet and comfortable place where you can sit without any distractions. If possible, turn off your phone and computer to avoid any interruptions.
2. Get into a comfortable posture: Sit on a chair with your back straight, feet on the ground, and hands resting on your lap or on the desk in front of you. Close your eyes or lower your gaze to a soft focus.
3. Focus on your breath: Take a few deep breaths and then let your breath settle into its natural rhythm. Bring your attention to the sensation of the breath moving in and out of your body. Notice how the air feels as it passes through your nostrils, the rise and fall of your chest, and the expansion and contraction of your belly.
4. Notice when your mind wanders: As you focus on your breath, you may notice that your mind starts to wander. This is normal and happens to everyone. When you notice your mind has wandered, gently and non-judgmentally bring your attention back to your breath.
5. Allow your thoughts to pass: It’s natural for thoughts to arise during meditation. Rather than fighting them or getting caught up in them, simply acknowledge them and let them pass like clouds in the sky.
6. Bring mindfulness to your work tasks: As you finish your meditation, bring the same sense of presence and mindfulness to your work tasks. Whether it’s answering emails, attending meetings or completing a project, focus on the task at hand and try not to multitask or get distracted.
7. Take regular breaks: Remember to take regular breaks throughout the day to stretch your body, relax your mind and recharge your batteries.
