- How often do we feel overwhelmed, especially given either uncertainties or the pace of work? Jon Kabat-Zinn, a noted expert in mindfulness and MBSR (mindfulness based stress reduction) said: “We take care of the future best by taking care of the present now.” In this seminar, we will discuss the basic principle of mindfulness – being present in the moment – and the research about mindfulness techniques and their links to reducing stress, increasing creativity, increasing productivity and even reducing implicit bias. We will discuss some of the specific techniques that can be used by individuals but also those that you might use as a team or as an organization to increase engagement and productivity.
