Mindfulness-based trainingS for peak performance and wellness
Every organization has a different culture as well as a distinctive mission and methods for achieving this mission.
We understand that every workplace is unique, and that pre-fabricated strategies and training are often ineffective. For that reason, we customize our programs to meet the needs and goals of our clients, especially lawyers and doctors and others in high-intensity organizations. We provide consulting services and on-site meditation-based stress reduction, leadership and other trainings in conference rooms, offices, and at firm retreats. Participants may wear business or casual clothes, and sit in chairs during each one of our programs.
Our mindfulness-based programs are unique.
Linda Lazarus provides in-person trainings that combine subject matter instruction with a variety of contemplative disciplines (including mindfulness meditation, tai chi, qigong, gentle yoga, relaxation techniques, and other practices) to create programs that will regenerate your organization from the inside out. Our training teaches participants to use the most effective contemplative practices to both enhance professional abilities and optimize the effectiveness of the organization. Human potential is maximized through, among other things, improved physical and emotional health (including optimism and positive outlook), the development of the ability to pay attention and self-awareness, as well as reduced habitual behavior and emotional reactivity. The organization is enhanced because leaders and staff have increased cognitive and physical abilities as well as improved inter-personal skills which enable them to work together to achieve the organization's goals in a grounded and flexible manner.
