In this course I will show you how I take a meditation break while sitting at my desk. This course came about because when I was at my desk working, I found that the meditations I have learned throughout my life did not address the limited time and space I had to take a break in my office. I decided to modify the meditations to suit the environment of my office space. I desired something quick and easy. First, I began to notice when I needed a break, my eyes would become tired and my body would feel uncomfortable. While the usual walk to the bathroom or break room helped, I wasn't always able to get back to work and focus. I knew that breathing and meditation would help. At first it felt awkward to sit at my desk and take deep breaths, but that's what I did. Then I felt the need to stretch and used those stretching movements as a form of meditation. As I placed attention on the different movements I eventually came up with sequences that I call Simple Desk Meditations.

I will walk you through a brief introduction into meditation. You will lean about mindfulness. Then I will show you common meditations that you can do alone or in combination with breath and other movements. Simple Desk Meditations are breath and movements sequence I put together to quickly recharge. You can create your own breath and movement combinations. I will provide you with a checklist of different types breaths and movements and or questions you can use, as you design your own sequence.

What I have found is when I do these meditation breaks, my workflow improves. I can think clearer and I have insights on how to work more efficiently. In this course I explain what workflow is and I will show you an example of my workflow. These meditations are designed to be done quickly, about 1-5 minutes. They can also be as long as you desire them to be. It all depends on you and the breathing and movement combinations you would like to design. I made my sequence simple and you can make yours simple too.
