Bringing increased mindfulness among employees through meditation or other means is a key target area for a lot of corporates. This is because, increasingly in the ongoing digital age, people seem to be distracted most of the time, so not being able to focus their attention. Several corporate training programmes are being facilitated to bring upon this change. However, employees need to understand that the greatest source of such learning must come from the daily grind of suffering at the workplace. While most people today may not feel as confined to their workplaces like earlier times, there is still that element. Stanford Graduate School of Business Lecturer Leah Weiss in her latest book has highlighted three major kinds of mindfulness to be honed. The first of these is embodiment which refers to the body alone. Then there is metacognition which is an acknowledgment of the experiences a person goes through and learning via them. Focus is the third one, as it directs the attention to where most desired.
