Meditation in the Workplace?

prostoalex writes "Nortel, Texas Instruments, Raytheon, Google, Apple and many others are apparently finding meditation and yoga to be a very efficient way to motivate and energize the employees. BusinessWeek finds that the reasons companies are suddenly hiring the yoga experts and conducting regular classes are easily justified to the management: "increased brain-wave activity, enhanced intuition, better concentration, and the alleviation of the kinds of aches and pains that plague employees most"."

    As someone who used to think it was all a load of trash until I 'had' to be a case study for my g/f during her training, I can confirm that lots and lots of good stuff comes out of Massage, Indian Head Massage, all that sort of thing.

    I usually find that I am much more productive afterward, but also much more relaxed. Double plus good!
