NIRVANA AT WORK
To reject change is to reject tomorrow.
Shanti Gowans
Work is one of our primary activities on the planet. It serves our community, our planet and us.
The search for nourishment and authenticity, to be fully present in life, in the moment, especially at work, is increasing.
A new generation of business leaders is turning to mindfulness and yoga as a cutting-edge leadership tool. Scientific research suggests that the practice of mindfulness can help individuals gain clarity, reduce stress, optimise their performance and develop a greater sense of wellbeing. This greatly assists in the blossoming of precious wealth, minimising chronic absenteeism, employee turnover, stress claims and lagging productivity. As increased stress has direct links to mental illness and workplace injury, this training provides practical and beneficial tools for sustaining a balanced and calm work and home life. Skills and abilities are not only used for personal growth and advancement but also with social responsibility to benefit of the world.
Stressed out, sedentary, and overweight career and business people find mindfulness meditation and practices based on yoga principles designed to reduce anxiety and lifestyle pressure, to be of tremendous benefit in robust behavioural changes and towards building resilience and energy. Physical wellbeing, improved concentration and mindfulness are skills that empower career and business people to cope more readily, thereby enabling them to overcome problems and be more productive.

These practices have been refined for the Western mind over a period of more than three decades of work in Australia, including the teaching of yoga and meditation for daily life, counselling individuals, families and organisations, running a government recognised college, and a 70 acre residential wellness retreat. Shanti Gowans acts as senior consultant and principle facilitator, with the assistance of THI team of experts and presenters in their specialist areas.

Nirvana in the Workplace
There is a basic wisdom that can help solve the world's problems. It does not belong to any culture or religion but rather to a timeless tradition of human courage, the key to which lies in not being afraid of who we are: human beings. Wisdom principles, processes and practices can be used to bring out the universal inspirations, intelligence and energy that lead to success in any endeavour, including business. Our programs are about the training and application of wisdom principles in the practice of business, as a worker, manager or owner, or all three combined, as is commonly the case in small business.
To be effective, productive, nourished and spiritually healthy, we need a set of practical and holistic skills that we can apply to any situation. Workplace wellness programs directly contribute to employee productivity. Employee wellness and workplace wellness have been empirically linked. Engaged employees are those who use their discretionary efforts for the good of the company. They come in early, are excited by their work and are connected to the purpose of the organisation. Employee health, resilience and sustainable high performance is a competitive advantage for all organisations, large and small.
Our approach
Listening. Questioning. Understanding. This is our mantra. It represents the golden method we use when working with you. We believe we must spend time to engage, understand your concerns and desires for the future. We ask questions to establish a shared understanding. This is the best way to achieve the ideal result and we can celebrate that with you on your behalf.
We work towards self-fulfilment of the individual together with corporate success. Each individual in training gains from participating in an
inspiring, practical program that points the way to creative mastery of Self and their contribution to the world via the work they do. This powerful framework allows the individual to seamlessly integrate and develop both themselves and their service to others.
Our Methods
Everyday enlightened action. Practical training that includes workshops, projects, lectures, breath, stretching and movement, green yoga, meditation and relaxation. This is supported with notes and practice aids in the development of attitude, appearance, ability and activity.
The end result
Staff, associates and employees acquire the motivation to see success as something that comes from what they contribute rather than just some they gain. Everyone benefits from spirituality and nourishment in the workplace.
We can come to you, or your team can come out of their normal, everyday, work environment and step into ours. Located in Southport and Beechmont, our premises provide the perfect venue. Our head office is on the Gold Coast, Australia, with facilitators in Queensland, Melbourne and Sydney.
Naturally, your benefits are multiplied when you train your entire team. Nirvana in the workplace is known to build comaraderie, reduce stress, increase the health and wellbeing of co-workers, reduce illness, increase job satisfaction and increase the productivity and wellbeing of employees.
