Description


The benefits of meditation have long been studied and supported by leading neurologists, who have demonstrated that regular meditation practice actually changes brain structure, verifying scientifically-reported cognitive and psychological benefits that go beyond relaxation.

Meditation can make you aware of what is holding you back, reveal how to break your existing patterns, and remove your barriers to success. Leading From Within explores the wisdom of 13 business thought leaders. It identifies 13 universal traits of effective leaders that arise from those lessons and groups them into four foundational pillars: Awareness, Connection, Perspective and Potential. The traits are then paired with a variety of guided meditation techniques you can utilize to develop your leadership skills. Leading From Within offers you the tools to establish your own practice.

Explore a myriad of meditation techniques to develop leadership traits and support the pillar that will best serve you right now. Meditation will teach you to observe the present with full attention, without judgment, and to connect with your inner wisdom. Once you've mastered the tools, you'll be able to improve your professional life in ways you cannot predict. Enjoy increased focus, reduced stress, unleashed creativity, better relationships, clearer decision making, and an awakening to opportunities. A daily meditation practice is training for your mind as physical exercise is training for your body. If becoming a more effective leader is your will, meditation can be your way. One breath at a time.
