A step-by-step guide for leaders and the people they lead

By Hansika Metha


A full-colour, illustrated step-by-step guide to more than 60 techniques that can be used to release stress and anxiety, improve productivity and problem-solving, enhance listening skills and interpersonal relationships, and increase the quality of one’s work-life.

Meditation has become an essential skill in every leader’s toolkit, helping them adapt to and better handle ever-increasing complexity in their day-to-day environments. The benefits of meditation are varied, and undeniable.

Bringing greater calm, balance and wellbeing

Studies on meditation programmes in the workplace show a marked improvement in productivity, decision-making, problem-solving and listening skills. Meditation can bring balance, meaning and mindfulness into the workplace, raise EQ and executive function, and improve the quality of one’s work-life. It also reduces stress and anxiety.

If you thought that meditation was too ‘woo-woo’, time-consuming or difficult to do, think again.

Meditation for Business demystifies the practice by sharing examples of top global CEOs who meditate and includes plenty of solid research to back all the benefits. The book also provides simple, step-by-step guidelines for more than 60 different techniques – from easy to advanced – that you can practise and enjoy. Whether you have just five minutes to spare, or 50 – choose an exercise that fits your schedule and desired outcome.

This full colour illustrated guide includes meditations, mindfulness and breathing exercises, mudras and postures for you to experiment with to bring greater calm, balance and wellbeing into your day. The author also guides you on how to introduce a meditation programme into your workplace.
