Episode Description
Most people see work as a necessary responsibility, but not a place to find happiness or joy. Many equate success with hard work and even suffering in order to get ahead. On January 20th, Host Kate Ebner will be joined by one of the world's leading meditation teachers, Sharon Salzberg, to discuss how meditation can help anyone be happier at work. Tune in for practical strategies from Sharon's new book, Real Happiness at Work: Meditations for Accomplishment, Achievement and Peace to help you attain the eight pillars of workplace happiness. Learn how a focus on the present moment will actually lead to a greater pay-off than constantly thinking about when the report is finished or finally getting that promotion. If you have a job of any kind, don't miss this chance to learn from world-renowned Buddhist meditation teacher, author and speaker Sharon Salzberg.
