beneficial

Excellent course1
I thoroughly enjoyed this Mindfulness training. I will always use the Take Action sheet and Further Learning sheet the assist me when I need a moment of mindfulness.
Bring's things back into perspective
I think the Mindfulness exercise is one for all, short exercise, but worth the time to bring back the realisation of the day, to reflect and encourage you to gather your thoughts to react in a positive way
mumbo jumbo
This may be very usefully presented for some people but to others like myself it comes across as holistic, idiotic nonsense that immediately makes me unreceptive to the ideas that you are trying to get across.
A good start
This is a very good thing to do and great skill to train people in. It is not an easy thing to get right and practice is needed. It takes practice to know you need to call on this technique and use it well. Regular reminders/sessions are a good idea.
Why is this training important?
Business benefits
Mindfulness can help to reduce stress, anxiety, and conflict, and can help to increase resilience and emotional intelligence, whilst also improving communication at work.
If a person is unsure of whether they are mindful or not, have them consider the following:
- Frequently forgetting about your conversations?
- Dwelling on the past, or being overly concerned about the future?
- Are you only skim-reading emails?
If the answer to any of these is yes, then it's likely you are zoning out more frequently than you desire.
Fortunately, regular practice of mindfulness increases the brain's ability to repair itself and grow new neural connections, which will help you to stop zoning out as much, and help you to achieve better productivity at work.
