Mindfulness Training for Leaders & Teams
What is Mindfulness Training?
Mindfulness training helps leaders and individuals develop their ability to be engaged and aware in the present moment, without judgment. Mindfulness is a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one’s feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations. Mindfulness training involves practices such as meditation that help leaders develop their ability to be present and aware in the moment.
