Workplace Wellbeing: Mindfulness & Meditation

As part of your Employee Engagement or Workplace Wellness, we provide excellent services to your team for slowing down, relaxing, practicing mindfulness, enhancing well-being, and promoting team-building in a sustainable, stress-free way.

Value for employees: Overcoming stress and nervousness, while gaining confidence, personal headspace and knowledge on alternative well-being techniques, in order to sustain wellness and mindfulness.

Value for the company: By recognizing the need and creating an opportunity for their employees to participate in a mindfulness program, the company could potentially lift significant levels of stress, worries and anxiety of their employees. This means that it would be more likely that employees will be open to work from the office while sustaining their health and wellbeing, which will minimize the downtime due to sick days. Being such a thoughtful employer will have many other positive impacts on performance, morale and productivity, which is expected to be measurable by the customer satisfaction evaluations and employee feedback surveys.


Workplace Meditation with healing Sounds

Sound-bathing with singing bowls, crystal bowls, gong, shamanic drum, ocean drum, and chimes provide calming harmonizing sounds as well as the gentle vibrations of the instruments induce a feeling of well-being and a very effective deep relaxation.

For people in good health, sound bathing will support the development of their inner harmony and provide them with energy and strength for their daily tasks. Creativity and productive energy will receive new impulses. With physical, mental and psychological issues, sound bathing will help to bring relief from pain and problems that cause daily stress, worries, and anxiety. During a session, there is no fixed rhythm, which results in the brain not being able to follow, and entrainment takes place. Entrainment is the changing of brainwave frequencies. The alpha brainwave state is achieved very quickly and is followed by the Theta brainwave state. Alpha waves are defined as brainwave frequencies between 8 and 12 Hz. Daydreaming, imagination and associative thinking are all part of alpha brainwave activity. Alpha waves are present in states of relaxation. Theta waves are defined as brainwave frequencies between 4 and 7 Hz. Theta waves occur during dreaming sleep - or REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, although they also occur during deep meditation. Theta brainwave frequencies are most often where the gongs will take you. You will most likely enter a dreamlike, deep meditative state. Theta brainwave is a good state of consciousness to be in for healing to occur.

Nevertheless, after even a short sound-bathing session people feel refreshed, energized, motivated and happier.
