FAST RELAXATION
MINDFUL MEDITATION
SESSION

A short meditation session, even just 5-10 minutes, can significantly enhance productivity by calming the mind and improving focus. Meditation reduces stress and anxiety, clearing mental clutter that hinders concentration. It fosters mindfulness, allowing you to stay present and attentive to tasks, leading to better decision-making and creativity. Regular short sessions can also boost energy levels and emotional resilience, helping you navigate challenges with a clearer perspective. By taking a brief pause for meditation, you reset your mind, reduce distractions, and enhance your overall efficiency and effectiveness in both work and personal tasks.

5 TOP TIPS FOR BETTER RELAXATION

• Deep Breathing: Practice slow, deep breaths, inhaling for four counts, holding for four, and exhaling for four. This calms the nervous system and reduces stress.

• Progressive Muscle Relaxation: Tense and then slowly release each muscle group, starting from your toes and moving up to your head, to release physical tension.

• Visualisation: Close your eyes and imagine a peaceful scene, like a beach or forest, focusing on the sights, sounds, and sensations to transport your mind to a calming place.

• Mindful Listening: Listen to soothing music or nature sounds, focusing entirely on the audio to shift your mind away from stress.

• Quick Stretching: Perform gentle stretches to relieve muscle tension and increase blood flow, helping your body feel more relaxed and energised.
