People Management

High stress levels have a big impact on our ability to be effective leaders.

The disruption caused by stress to our cardiovascular, respiratory, immune, digestive, skeletal, cellular repair, reproductive, and endocrine systems – as well as many key brain functions – is unrelenting.

Too much of the stress hormone cortisol kills brain cells and leads to cognitive decline.

Our sleep quality suffers due to the sheer volume of unprocessed noise and stress chemistry in our nervous system - leaving us impatient, grumpy, exhausted and fog-headed.

Beeja meditation helps bring calm, clarity, and interpersonal skills, which can help us manage people so much better.

When we are less stressed ourselves, it means we have more time and energy to help guide our team.

When we are calmer and clearer – due to the greater levels of brain coherence that we experience when we practise Beeja meditation – it is easier to be decisive and make sound strategic decisions.

Greater activation of our prefrontal cortex makes us better at solving problems, and much more capable of empathy and compassion; which are essential in helping people feel understood and valued as human beings and team members.

Beeja meditation also gives us so much more energy, which means we can continue to take care of our task-list and manage our team on a sustained basis, without crashing.

It also boosts confidence and self-esteem, makes us more adaptable, and more able to lead a team with conviction – a cornerstone of effective leadership.

More and more, meditation is seen as one of the most consistent hallmarks of many of the world’s most successful people.

How is this possible? Beeja meditation allows our systems to rest an average of 33% deeper than the deepest point in sleep. After six to seven hours of sleep, oxygen consumption usually decreases by about 15%. But the metabolic rate of meditation subjects goes at least 20% deeper, within just five minutes.

Beeja meditation improves the quality of our sleep, facilitating even more energy for the day ahead.

There is an average reduction in the stress hormone cortisol of 33%.

Beeja also results in greater hormonal balance, allowing us to feel energised throughout the day. Having a greater compliment of endorphins is also the reason why we feel such a strong sense of vitality when we do this.
