Pandit Dasa also recently led mindfulness workshops for the attendees of the ATD2018 conference, The World Bank Group and AMC Theatres on the importance of training their leaders to be more mindful when dealing with their direct reports and peers. These are the five key benefits experienced by employees who have engaged in the mindfulness workshops:

1. Appreciating and Recognizing

By appreciating, celebrating and feeling happy for each other's success, teams can build trust and improve teamwork.

2. Communicating with Compassion

We can all become a little more mindful about the nature and tone of our communication and whether it will inspire or discourage.

3. Leading by Example

Those in a leadership position can sometimes forget that their actions are being watched by their employees. If a leader sets one standard for themselves and another for everyone else, a deterioration of trust can take place.

4. Recognizing Unconscious Biases

We all have some biases that we're not aware of towards others. Such biases can cause us to promote some while demoting or ignoring others. Recognizing our biases can help us provide fair treatment at the workplace.

5. Practicing Meditation

Simple breathing, focusing, appreciation and gratitude meditations are taught to the workforce to help employees reduce stress and anxiety, release tension from the body and mind, become aware of their emotions and focus on and appreciate the work their colleagues are doing.

Before teaching the techniques, Dasa introduces scientific research on mindfulness to appease those that may be skeptical about mindfulness meditation.
