Mindfulness At Work: Corporations, Start Ups, Government Organizations

Well-being and Resilience for Global Teams

Today’s workplaces are fast-paced, emotionally demanding, and constantly changing. As a leader, you want to support your teams, but it’s hard to find programs that actually move the needle while being fun and human. Custom-made mindfulness programs from a teacher and coach who sat at your seat might be just what you need.

Is This You?

01

Your team is overwhelmed, scattered, and close to burnout

Work is chaotic, demanding, constantly shifting. Your team is overwhelmed or burnt out, or unable to find focus and show impact.

Mindfulness, when applied in the workplace, is a powerful tool to accept constant change, deepen focus, cultivate emotional resilience, and achieve better outcomes in a more sustainable way. Mindfulness helps us get things done and feel balanced!

02

Your team is struggling with disconnection and communication in a multicultural landscape

In our multicultural, remote, or hybrid teams, communication breaks down easily. This is often exacerbated by diverse communication styles and cultural nuances. Conflict is brewing, and people stop enjoying working together.

Mindfulness helps build team cohesion and collaboration, creating the foundation for a supportive team culture. Mindful communication supports teams to accept that conflict is natural and human, speak with care, listen deeply, and build trust and psychological safety.

03

You need programs that are practical, inclusive, and backed by research

You’ve sat through too many abstract wellness sessions that didn’t land – or that your team couldn’t integrate. You’re not seeing a real difference in workplace well-being or outcomes.

Mindfulness is practical, inclusive and backed by research. Your teams can start applying it right away, no matter their role and background, and with consistent practice, find that they can be both effective and happy at work!

Testimonials

“Meditation with Zeynep has allowed me to evolve in my professional and personal life, and has changed my life. I most appreciated being able to reconnect with my self. I felt a lot of empathy from Zeynep. I found the summaries of the sessions, the references to books, and the concrete examples very useful.”
A student of corporate sessions for 4 years
I started the meditations sessions during COVID, when I was in the middle of a very bad burn out, and I didn’t want to turn my computer on in the mornings. I started pressing the “on” button to join the morning sessions, and little by little, I started feeling better, little by little.”
