Finding Headspace in the Workplace

May 8, 2017/ by Olivia Ramirez

Earlier this week, members of The Yard: Williamsburg office space set aside some time to find headspace and achieve mindfulness amidst a busy workday. We got together with Embodied Workplace to meditate, write and heighten our senses with some artisanal chocolate.

Achieving Mindfulness at Work

Between meditation sessions, members moved around the room assuming liberating new positions to stretch the body and relieve the mind. Afterward, we engaged in introspective writing which helped us in understanding the bigger picture and allowed for creative breakthroughs.
