Studies show that meditation can actually change how the brain processes information and manages the effects of stress, depression, and anxiety. Many companies have turned to meditation to help their employees feel better and work better by offering virtual or on-site meditation.

Meditation is a proven way to help manage stress and anxiety, and it can also:

• Improve concentration and focus

• Reduce distractibility and mind-wandering

• Increase focus and sustained attention

• Increase resilience, inner strength, and improve mood

• Increase creativity and help achieve goals

• Reduce depression

• Increase empathy, gratitude, generosity, and kindness

• Strengthen the immune system

Meditation Bar services are secular and accessible to everyone from beginner to master. Research shows that every person meditates differently, and that different types of meditation fulfill different goals. We offer a wide variety of types of meditation and can design a program according to your team’s needs and goals.

Our services provide a variety of meditation and relaxation techniques suitable for all meditation experience levels. We offer on-site and virtual workplace services. And, for very small groups, we can design an amazing event in our beautiful and serene studio.

We are happy to work with you to design an event tailored to your needs. Here are some examples of what is possible:
