5 Meditations for Work Stress
Are you experiencing work-related stress? You’re not alone. According to the American Institute of Stress (because it’s so bad that we need an entire institute for it), 94% of American workers reported experiencing stress at their workplace last year. And with new challenges constantly being thrown our way, it wouldn’t be surprising to see that number rise in the future.
While meditation isn’t the answer to all of our problems, it can be an effective tool for managing work-related stress and anxiety, navigating your emotions, and finding a moment of calm. We’ve rounded up some meditations for work stress that address some of the common issues that come up during the day.
