Detailed session description

In this expert session, Rose shares insights into the practice of mindfulness and its numerous benefits. By engaging in mindfulness exercises, individuals can experience increased clarity, cognitive flexibility, reduced stress, enhanced focus, improved emotional reactivity, and greater relationship satisfaction.

Rose begins by guiding participants through a simple mindfulness exercise. She encourages everyone to find a comfortable seated position, focusing on the breath or a specific object as an anchor for their awareness.

Then she leads the group through a series of steps, encouraging them to engage all five senses and describe what they perceive. This includes identifying various sounds, textures, sights, and even new sounds and textures as the exercise progresses.

She emphasizes the importance of being gentle with oneself during these exercises, allowing for natural distractions and bringing focus back to the present moment rather than criticizing oneself.

Rose also encourages participants to practice mindfulness in their daily lives, emphasizing small actions such as cognitive flexibility and emotional financing to manage stress and cultivate positive thinking.

Throughout the session, Rose uses interactive elements, such as asking participants to commit to simple actions for bringing calm into their daily lives, to engage attendees and encourage reflection. The expert session concludes by emphasizing the importance of finding a moment of pause before the day ends, highlighting that even brief moments of mindfulness can make a positive impact on mental well-being.

Questions about Everyday Mindfulness

Is this a workshop or a talk?

A workshop. The description of this session says so itself: the hour includes exercises and activities that participants do, not only an expert speaking. It still runs live and online, for as many colleagues as you want to invite.

Is Rose the right expert for this?

Rose Auyeung-Chen is one of the experts we auditioned ourselves, and we produce every session so we see how each one lands. Participants rate this session 4.1 out of 5, across 251 responses, and rate Rose personally 4.5 out of 5.

Is this session interactive, or do people just watch?

It is interactive, and the block higher up on this page says exactly how for this session. Nobody has to speak up who does not want to: the chat and the polls carry most of it, and the questions can come in anonymously.

How long does it take, and what do we have to prepare?

It runs 45 min / 15 min: the talk, then live questions. All you do is pick a date. We brief Rose, produce the session, host and moderate it, run the Q&A, and send you the report within an hour of the end.

Who can join, and where does it run?

A team, a department, an employee network or every single employee at once, with no cap and no per-seat price. It runs inside your own Microsoft Teams, Zoom or Google Meet, or on a branded page we build. No integration, no login, no company device or e-mail.

Can our global colleagues follow it?

The session is delivered in English. You can add high accuracy live subtitles in 8, 16 or 24 languages, so everyone follows in their own. That is a paid option, priced by the number of languages you need.

Will our IT department have a problem with this?

No, and that is by design. There is nothing to install, nothing to integrate and no connection to your systems, so there is nothing for IT to validate: we join your own Teams, Zoom or Meet as a guest speaker, or we host a page and your people open a link. No software, no accounts, and no data of yours that we can reach. It is why hundreds of companies, among them some of the largest technology and financial firms in the world, were able to start within a day.

How does this work under GDPR?

We never receive or hold personal data about your employees. Because the session runs in your own environment, attendance and identity stay with you, and what we report back is aggregated: numbers, ratings and survey answers, not people. That is also why IT approval usually takes minutes rather than weeks.

What do we get afterwards?

You keep the recording and can share it internally. You also get attendance over time, participant ratings for the content and the speaker, the survey answers, and the topics your people asked for next.
