Since most of us spend a great deal of time at work \u0336\u2500whether that\u2019s in an office, a classroom, or in our own homes \u0336\u2500knowing how to meditate at your desk can be beneficial. This short practice helps you refresh your attention<\/a> while at work. What I call the “desk chair” meditation gives you a way to incorporate a short mindfulness<\/a> practice into your day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This meditation can be done anywhere you are able to sit quietly and practice.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

If you work in an open office, you may need to be creative to find a quiet place to practice. Many people have told me that they\u2019re best able to do this practice by leaving their office and finding an empty conference room, or even leaving the building to sit in their car during part of their lunch break<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “meditate at your desk” part need not be taken literally. This meditation can be done anywhere you are able to sit quietly and practice\u2014be it the staff room, a park bench, or even an airplane seat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
