Summary

Some people are lucky enough to have low-stress jobs and few workplace conflicts between them and co-workers. For the rest of us, it's extremely common to experience stress and fatigue as a result of your duties and professional relationships at work. Tensions in the workplace can hamper productivity and can cause physical and emotional tension that we often inadvertently take home with us at the end of the day. Although wellness incentives (such as gym memberships and massages) can help sooth our physical ailments, this doesn't always help our psyche.

One company, Silicon Valley Wellness, is aiming to change this by offering meditation services to workers. Silicon Valley Wellness was co-founded by Masha Kouzmenko, who joins us to discuss the benefits of meditation and mindfulness; she focuses on how her company helps people let go of negative associations from their past and move forward with their lives. These sessions can be scheduled at the company's convenience, and Silicon Valley Wellness is able to travel to workplaces so that employees can return to work feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
