Headspace

When we practice mindfulness at work, we’re practicing: → being fully present → consciously focusing on the task at hand (not multitasking!) → resisting the urge to operate on autopilot → being free from judgment → keeping a soft and open mind → attentiveness → awareness What does practicing mindfulness at work look like for you?

It can be tough to get through the day when you’re feeling low or anxious. Feeling like we’re trudging through the work week (or life in general) shouldn’t be normal, but it’s all too common. In light of this, we’re proud to be introducing our newest course exclusively for members who access Headspace through their employers: our CBT for Mood and Anxiety Guided Program. 🙌 The CBT for Mood and Anxiety Guided Program is a multi-week course that takes an evidence-based approach involving mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques. In this three-part program guided by meditation teacher Rosie together with a Headspace psychiatrist, you will learn to better understand and identify emotions, experiment with what CBT techniques work best for you, and develop skills that, over time, improve your everyday anxiety and reduce your stress levels. Available only in the Headspace app for enterprise partners.

Monday mental health tip: Get your morning nutrition in. It’s all too common to grab an iced coffee on an empty stomach while heading to work (we’ve all done it), but a healthy breakfast can help you feel more focused and energized throughout the day.
