Mindfulness practice isn’t new: the practices which power it have been around for thousands of years, and awareness of the benefits of mindfulness in the workplace has been growing for decades. But what makes mindfulness continue to feel fresh and vital are the influx of scientific studies validating how mindfulness can, yes, improve our capacity to innovate, adapt, and thrive in all the professional and personal environments we habit.
