A healthy living is the base of a successful work life. Working
continuously at a stretch brings in stress and disorder to our mind, which hinders
us from concentrating in what we do, resulting in decreased work productivity. Meditation
is instrumental in relieving us from stress and anxiety and aids in healthy
living.
Here are a few quick meditation tips that we all can do
on our own when we are at workplace to energize our mind and work with vigor. Don’t
worry about the time it takes, as you can utilize your tea breaks, the tiny
breaks after prolonged work, and the time when you are waiting for a call or a
meeting.
