An overview
The human mind experiences between 60-70,000 thoughts every day. The majority of these thoughts are normally about past events or future unknowns. This is where the real benefit of Yoga and Meditation can help. These ancient practices help the mind to still the thousands of thoughts teaching the individual to live in the present moment, more often.
With mental illness now at epidemic levels, almost half of Australians will experience a mental illness in their lifetime. In today’s corporate world, providing personnel with tools that can help them immediately, is invaluable. For suffers of mental illness, having an action plan they can call upon, that works time and again, will provide the relief required. In turn, those business that act and put into place a quality workplace wellness program, they will see the array of benefits including; less staff sick days, lower staff turnover and increased productivity of the business.

The mind can get stuck
As humans, without realizing it, we can spend many hours a day worrying about the past or the future. This is where the majority of mental illnesses occur. We make things more stressful than they need to be. Compact that with feelings of overwhelm for deadlines, meetings, presentations, etc. This allows anxiety and depressive states of mind to creep in a lot more than people will ever admit.
When stress and overwhelm begin to occur at a job regularly, personnel begin to wonder if the grass is greener somewhere else. People are making changes and quickly too. 30-40 years ago, people stayed at jobs for long periods. These days, if they aren’t happy, they’ll begin searching for somewhere where the grass could be greener. The problem we see is, normally the grass isn’t greener. The stress levels eventually begin to mount again and the same issues begin occurring again.
Focus within, the results will come
So our focus is to help people work on themselves. To look within and find inner happiness, gratitude and appreciation. We do live a privileged life in Australia. Sometimes we just don’t take the time to stop, smell the roses and truly appreciate it.
Yoga and meditation are two fantastic tools for finding inner peace and happiness. Yoga isn’t just about stretching and flexibility, whilst meditation isn’t about sitting still with zero thoughts. There is so much more to both these practices.
The human brain is a muscle like every other muscles, it too needs a break from working on overdrive. This is where breath and movement help the student.
