Bring Your Spirituality into the Workplace

2-day weekend

There are no dates currently scheduled.

Join us for a practical and rewarding weekend where you will:

• Build confidence to live your ideals in the workplace
• Learn how to stay positive, and expect the same from others
• Strengthen your communication skills to be able to convey why 'the high road' will be better for your organization
• Improve your decision-making to know when to take a stand—and when to step aside or step out
• Balance adherence to principles with acceptance of others
• Learn the difference between problem-consciousness and solution-consciousness, and how to use meditation and inner focus to draw practical solutions from your higher self.

For many people, one of the big challenges to living a spiritual life comes in the workplace. Often, people feel uncomfortable trying to express high principles or maintain a spiritual focus in a business setting. Many guests have asked us questions about this issue, so we offer this new program to explore and discuss how to successfully bring your spirituality into the workplace.

The program will include an orientation Friday night during which we’ll begin to know each other, and to hear about the challenges you face, so that we can address them as a group over the weekend.

During the weekend you are invited to join twice-daily sadhanas (spiritual practices), where you will be guided in Energization Exercises, gentle yoga postures, and a short meditation. These practices will help you center yourself, and strengthen your own inner depth and understanding.  

Saturday morning, program leaders Timothy and Lalaan Hickey will share approaches and tools that have served them well over many years working in organizations, including businesses of many types, and non-profits.  We will apply these to real-life situations you find yourself in. Later in the morning, we will share basic yogic techniques to help us come from a higher level of consciousness when we face the common challenges of the workplace.

Saturday afternoon, you will hear from and interact with a panel of Ananda members who have dedicated themselves to the spiritual path—and who have worked, or currently do work, in businesses. They have dealt, or are dealing, with some of the very challenges you face.

This weekend is sure to bring you unexpected benefits, with powerfully effective insights and tools for changing your work days!
