Help Make Your Team More Resilient, Happy & Productive

A team that copes better with uncertainty and change, suffers less from the feelings of stress and anxiety. Confidence and resilience replaces fear and doubt.

Good working relationships and emotional intelligence, coupled with foresight, clarity and creativity, allows teams and individuals to navigate with confidence, and thrive despite uncertainty.

The effectiveness of mindfulness in the workplace to help employees excel has been proven by millions of studies worldwide. And while it is relatively new to New Zealand, more and more businesses are utilising mindfulness techniques and reaping the benefits. This includes addressing workplace health and safety issues such as stress and fatigue.

Companies like Google, Microsoft, Apple, Sony, Deutsche Bank, and England’s NHS, have fully embraced mindfulness and the many benefits it brings to its employees.

Call me and make this a reality for your business, organisation, or workplace too!

“Over time with mindfulness, we learn to develop the inner resources that will help us navigate through difficult, trying, and stressful situations with more ease, comfort, and grace.”

What is Mindfulness?

Simply put, mindfulness means awareness. Mindfulness is paying attention to and focussing on the present moment, rather than dwelling on the past or anticipating the future.

Staying in touch with the present in this way may lead to having an entirely different experience of a situation. The focus on the present can lead to feeling less stuck, or recognising more strength, balance, and confidence in oneself.

Mindfulness makes you more focused, creative, and productive.

Less Stress at Work for a Happier Workplace Experience

There is compelling scientific evidence that people are better able to cope with the stresses of modern professional life when they learn and regularly practice mindfulness.

In 2010, Hoffman et al. conducted a meta-analysis of 39 studies that explored the use of mindfulness-based stress reduction and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy.

What Teams I Have Helped Say

We recently asked Jamila to come and provide some mindfulness workshops. The first session was introductory, followed by weekly ‘drop in’ sessions for the period of a month. Some staff started off skeptical but soon fully embraced the training as they started to see the benefits that mindfulness has to offer. We covered so many topics and Jamila provided our team with some great tools to keep mentally healthy in this busy and stressful life we live in! I would thoroughly recommend this to any business that is looking for ways to teach their staff about mental healthiness. And we are still reaping the benefits of Jamila's sessions!

Thank you so much Jamila for your time. The team loved the introduction to mindfulness and your relaxed approach put them at ease. The team especially liked the practical exercises and tried mindfulness this morning and noticed the benefits. We had heard of mindfulness but did not know the difference it could make and the connection to exercise and eating well.

As a side-wide Health & Safety ‘Wellness Initiative,’ we invited Jamila to host an introduction to mindfulness workshop for our staff followed by weekly practice sessions. We were impressed with Jamila’s vast experience and found her teaching has helped raise awareness about mental health and highlighted the benefits of learning how to cope with stress and anxiety. We are well on our way to developing tools that will help us navigate through difficult times, thank you Jamila!
