Everyone talks about Mindfulness in today's workplace, but what does it really mean? My friend recently wrote a great book on this very subject which explored the benefits of re-charging ones batteries in this fast-paced and ever changing world of work.

Mindfulness can help people manage internal stress, your anxiety, and assist with depression, and help you cope with a serious illness. It can also help people understand their emotions better, cope with difficult thoughts, and feel calmer.
Mindfulness can help you improve your sleep, treat and reduce heart disease, lower your blood pressure, reduce any chronic pain you may feel, and alleviate gastrointestinal difficulties.
Mindfulness can improve concentration, help and support your own mental clarity, and improve your memory.
Mindfulness can also positively impact areas of the brain associated with learning, empathy, and perspective taking. It allows you to see things from another person's perspective or point of view.
