Meditation, more than anything in my life, was the biggest ingredient in whatever success I’ve had – Ray Dalio
Back in 2016, my journeys brought me to Magnolia Grove Monastery, located in Batesville, Mississippi (you know, where everyone goes to find answers from Vietnamese Buddhists). There, I learned the 2500-year-old art of mindfulness meditation, and I can’t begin to describe its effect on my focus and productivity.
So I began offering meditation workshops to businesses. My 500+ clients have included Atlanta Tech Village, Deloitte, a dozen law firms, and several politicians.
Why Train Your Employees to Meditate?
One day, a small business owner asked me an interesting question. What’s the ROI of your meditation class?
I did the math, factoring in average salaries, proven productivity increases, cost of my class, class duration, etc.
- If just one employee meditates for 1 week after class, the class has already paid for itself.
- If three employees begin regular meditation, the ROI is 3000%.
- If it lowers one employee’s anxiety enough that they don’t quit their job, the ROI is 30,000%.
Scheduling a Meditation 101 Workshop is like multiplying your employees’ productivity hours and having them thank you for it.
