Madgex Enlists The Tonic to Launch Mindfulness Workshops
Madgex has launched a series of
Mindfulness Workshops for its staff.
The workshops which are designed and
run by wellness company, The Tonic, provide participants with the opportunity
to understand what mindful living is and how it will benefit them both in and
out of the workplace.
Workshop participants are introduced
to some practical techniques including mindful meditation. They explore how to
manage their mental and physical state with breathing techniques and various
levels of meditation and, by the end of the programme, they will be able to
employ mindfulness as a simple skill to regenerate their energy, reduce stress
and anxiety, increase enjoyment of life, develop an enquiring mind, and
understand how to add greater creativity, quality and value to everything they
do.
As part of the process, The Tonic
will follow up with mindful reminders to help everyone make time each day for
mindful living and to help them establish it as a regular habit.
Hanna Smith, HR Director of Madgex
said, ‘We already provide a range of
other health & wellbeing activities for staff to participate in. This year
we decided to add mindfulness to our program because of its many benefits. In
today’s world and certainly working in a technical business, things happen so
fast you can often forget to take note of what’s going on around you or be busy
thinking what’s the next thing to do. Living like this is not sustainable
long-term, so educating those that wanted about mindfulness can help everyone
cope with the everyday work/ family life.
Our
ethos has always been, look after the whole person, not just the work person,
and mindfulness is an excellent tool to help you appreciate that. We’ve worked with Jeff from The Tonic before
and really like the way his workshops can fit into our culture. He has a very
personable style that has been receptive to our staff and the feedback has been
wonderful.’
Mindfulness is on the rise as a
recognised technique for business leaders and organisations. Research has
linked meditation to boosts in focus and productivity, and mindfulness practice
has also been associated with emotional stability and improved sleep, reduced
stress and anxiety, and improved mental clarity.
Tonic Director, Jeff Archer said, ‘The purpose of the programme is to help
everyone add balance and also engage at a deeper level with everyday life in an
attempt to maximise creativity, focus, and quality of experience.’
