Tom Cronin: Meditation for Better Focus and Workplace Productivity | Self-Improvement Atlas #75

Meditation has often been a topic of discussion when it comes to inner peace, but rarely discussed are the effects of meditation on our workplace productivity. So, this week on Self-Improvement Atlas: The Personal Science Insights Podcast, host Marie Stella is joined by meditation teacher Tom Cronin to learn more about what meditation can do for our focus and efficiency. Having spent 26 years in finance markets as one of Australia’s leading bond and swap brokers, Tom Cronin had experienced a crisis point with his anxiety and chaos in the early stages of his career when he discovered meditation. Now the founder of The Stillness Project, a global movement aimed at inspiring one billion people to sit in stillness daily, Tom Cronin is passionate about reducing stress and chaos in people’s lives. In this episode, Tom sheds light on transcending meditation, which aims to take the mind away from stimulus and bring it to stillness, which, contrary to popular belief, is a dynamic field of activity. Describing transcending meditation as an infinite stream of consciousness, he recommends 25-45 minutes of practice to reap its intended effects.  Together, Marie and Tom Cronin discuss the various habits that support the efficacy of transcending meditation, such as mindfulness, avoiding negative media, and high intensity exercise. So, tune in to this episode for an eye-opening conversation about how to harness meditation for improved focus and efficiency!
