Great to see that enlightenment in the form of meditation is getting attention from the main stream media. We are getting caught up in our daily routines so much that we often forget who we are and what it is that actually makes us happy. Meditation, even when done for a short period of time, can truly change ones perception and bring in more happiness into ones life.
Taking meditation into a business perspective, I believe it can truly enhance teams and have people work together better. At my previous company, one of our developers introduced me to meditation for the first time. I enjoyed it so much that I've asked him to 'lead' a collective meditation session every morning in the office for all the employees who were 'open' to it. After a few weeks most of our team participated in these sessions and the feedback from our employees was very positive.
Now I have never tried to find a correlation of these sessions with actual productivity, but overall everybody seemed to be more focussed and happy in the office. If I ever get to found another company, I would definitely like to explore the options of team/office meditation sessions again.
For anybody interested in connecting with the inner self, Eckhart Tolle really knows how to translate the concepts of our inner spirit into plain language: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE1dWwoJPU0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qE1dWwoJPU0
