Corporate Meditation Workshops - The Business of Meditation

Corporate Meditation is a growing business trend that may be coming soon to an office near you.
Meditation can help promote calm in your staff as we are all working overtime, skip lunch, do meetings back to back, save our annual leave, lose sleep over job security and monster mortgages, as well as multi-task like mad in the global recession backwash.

'With all these pressures to contend with in the workplace, we've become a mighty stressed out and an anxious lot here in Sydney. So anxious that one in five Australians took medication to alleviate stress in the past fortnight, according to 2008 data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics. What's more, workplace stress costs the national economy $10.11 billiion annually through absenteeism or sluggish productivity, and leads to the loss of 3.2 days per worker each year, according to research by health fund Medibank Private.
Bosses are starting to realise that investing in stress-reduction programs, such as meditation makes fiscal sense, too. After all, employers are responsible for implementing stress management in the workplace under the Workplace Health and Safety Act 2004, and if they don't look after staff, it can hurt them in the hip pocket. The average cost of a stress-related work claim in 2009 in Victoria, for instance, was a hefty $51,000 says Worksafe Victoria'.*
In Australia, the cost of workers’ compensation claims for stress-related mental disorders is estimated at $200 million every year (NOHSC 2003). A similar trend is evident in Europe where the most commonly reported work related health problems are musculoskeletal, depression and burnout syndromes (European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working
Conditions 1999).**

The fact that results can be seen after just one session makes, meditation a popular stress reduction technique. Even just 15 minutes of meditation in the morning is great for recharging energy and improving concentration.
