A Better Workplace with Ayurveda

The chaotic pace of daily work and life can be a difficult thing to handle. Here at A Better Workplace with Ayurveda, we offer advice for a harmonious work, life balance through the practice of Ayurveda.

All of us came for the first day at work with excitement and eagerness to achieve something. But as time passes, for many it becomes stressful to even think about work because of the many hurdles that have to be overcome not to forget finding the time for daily sustenance and some much-required rest. Whether you are enjoying your work or are feeling pressured by it, finding your work, life balance is essential to get the creative juices flowing and for problem-solving to come naturally. This will help you feel good and also spike your Productivity and Efficiency when at work.

The very first thing you need to do to incorporate Ayurveda into your work is the right attitude. Simply be thankful for the work you have, whatever it may be. Just remember what your job is giving you such as your daily bread and maybe even something for the satisfaction of the seeker in you. Gratitude is an attitude that can energise you with its sheer positivity. So start with this gratitude list. In case you feel that this is not where you want to be by all means pursue your dreams., But until then this job is paying for the bills. That’s why we definitely need to take a look at how Ayurveda can make your experience at work better and give you an advantage in your workplace.

Recharge with a meditation break: The best place for meditation is a quiet place away from people. Possible places you may use when at work would be like a conference room or any other such private place. Make it happen by booking a convenient daily slot of 10 minutes right in your calendar.

Bring your lunch: Why spend money and eat food that does you no good? Make a lunch kit with the food you enjoy, that is full of with nutrients your body needs and keep saving those dollars for splurging on the things that make you happy like a purse or stilettos.

Work in 90-minute blocks & take breaks: This idea is adapted from the book The Power of Full Engagement. Exerting yourself for a long time can be tough on your body and mind. Refresh yourself by taking a 10-minute break every 90 minutes. In this break, walk in place or across the hallway and activate blood circulation. Or you could play your favourite music and recapture that good feeling back. This will help you to become more focussed and improve performance when you get back to work. It will also offer you a motivation to complete tasks as we have the next break to look forward to.

Understand the personality Doshas: Everybody is different. We each have our weaknesses and strength. So be respectful of each other’s difference and The insights Ayurveda can give you by learning about the doshas in various personalities may be of great use here. This will help you see the whole person instead of just the random person whom you are forced to work with.

Plan for the day ahead: The morning time is Kapha time and people with Kapha dosha are followers by nature. It will be helpful to get a head start on the day. So write your to-do list at the end of each day and have it ready so that it keeps prodding you on through the day. It saves time and helps you make the most of the time you have a hand.

Move around: Everyone knows that exercise is good for us. Let us understand it from an ayurvedic perspective. Exercise helps blood circulation to reach our tissues and pumps up the fire element or agni in us. Stair climbing and walks are popular but you can always try something different like getting a standing desk to light your fire!

The Herbal Tea Habit: Keep herbal teas at hand. Have a nice bouquet of flavours that you can choose from and share them with you’re your colleagues. A little sharing makes for long-lasting and strong interpersonal relationships even at work! If you like it sweet, don’t forget to bring the honey!

Take Aroma Therapy With You: Stock a few Aromatherapy options ready for use. Aromatherapy can elevate the dull office environment and soothe your nerves after any stressful event. Use a spray from a bottle of rose water when you want something cooling and capable of removing negative energy. Lavender can be used to relieve stress. You can apply it on wrists or behind your ears. Grapefruit or citrus scents are used for energising. It can be applied on wrist, throat or dab a little on your handkerchief. These are light and popular scents which many love so it won’t be objected to.
