Sharon Salzberg, a meditation teacher and New York Times bestselling author, gives a talk on real happiness at work and mindfulness. She speaks about impermanence, and about how gratefulness and loving-kindness may help.
In some cases, the cause of workplace stress is more heavily imbued with a sense of being in a position or environment that is unaligned with your values or a poor fit for your skills. Before drawing conclusions, it’s important to explore the validity of these feelings. For instance, are you unarguably meant to design and create instead of inputting data into a spreadsheet? Or, are there issues involving poor self-esteem at play? In any case, you can explore mindfulness exercises for happiness at work without having to draw any conclusions or make any abrupt decisions about your current job or career. These mindfulness exercises for work and purpose can help you explore this topic.
