Get Started with Mindfulness with Elaine Smookler

We know that mindfulness has research-backed benefits for improving our focus at work-but did you know it can also create smoother, kinder relationships with colleagues?
As Elaine Smookler puts it, when we’re at work, “We are constantly trying to mind-read one another, and usually, it’s not ‘That person really likes me!’” If we’re on automatic pilot throughout our work day, we’re much less likely to question these negative assumptions, which adds to our stress.
What can you do? Elaine suggests:
✨Create reminders for yourself to take a mindful breath.
✨Ask yourself, “Is this thought really true?”
✨Even when you’re busy, let yourself take a break, and return with a fresh mind.
It’s not always easy to shift our habits and make mindfulness part of our daily routine. We hope you’ll check out these and other tools to help you along your journey, from the Get Started with Mindfulness course. Our sale is almost over, so make sure you don’t miss out: loom.ly/k5o9TXw
