Meditation for a Leader

Your mind is designed to think different thoughts and process different information at the same time. This explains why images and memories about unpleasant past experiences and uncertainties about future events can come up at any time of the day to keep you distracted, worried and anxious. Such haphazard and undirected thoughts affect your ability to stay focused on tasks and issues of the moment and give them the attention they deserve. One effective way to ensure you learn to stay centered and focused, live life moment-by-moment and focus your mind on what you are doing in the NOW is to cultivate mindfulness. One way to bring mindfulness into everything you do and the way you live is to make practicing mindfulness meditation techniques a daily habit. Becoming more mindful and living a more mindful life is one of those things that will not happen to you overnight without conscious effort from your part. You must work hard to build the habit of activating the mindful part of you by learning to stay in a meditative mood as often as possible all through your day. This book has different meditation techniques that can help you take your mindfulness to a higher level and how you can translate this mindfulness to your day-to-day living and activities. As you read on, you will learn what mindfulness and meditation really are, the connection between the two, the basics of meditation, different meditation techniques you can practice and how to go about them to harness all their benefits.
