Mindfulness in the Workplace

Practical, Research‑Based Support for Focus, Resilience, and Well‑Being

Today’s workplaces demand focus, sound judgment, and emotional resilience. Mindfulness offers practical, evidence-based tools to support these capacities — in ways that fit real, busy workdays.

I offer introductory mindfulness sessions that help employees cultivate focus, calm, and resilience. Sessions are accessible, grounded, and immediately useful.


Intro Session: 45–60 Minutes of Practical Mindfulness

Participants will:

  • Understand mindfulness: What it is (and isn’t), grounded in research

  • See stress in action: How it affects attention, decision-making, and communication

  • Practice mindfulness: Guided exercises to cultivate focus and ease at work

  • Take tools away: Simple strategies for a busy workday

Sessions are interactive, practical, and respectful of professional culture. No prior experience with mindfulness or meditation is required.

These sessions can

  • be in person or live via Zoom

  • accommodate small groups or large organizations

  • include content tailored to your organization’s needs, roles, and stressors

Joy’s calm and encouraging demeanor allowed our team to enjoy our mindfulness break at our virtual retreat. We especially enjoy the idea of ‘time confetti’ and have incorporated it into our daily work lives. Our jobs are stressful and complicated, and Joy’s reminders help us keep our balance!

Why Mindfulness Matters in the Workplace

Mindfulness practice can help your team:

  • Improve focus and reduce mental distraction

  • Support emotional regulation and stress resilience

  • Enhance communication and listening

  • Reduce burnout and compassion fatigue

  • Increase clarity and effectiveness under pressure

In workplace settings, mindfulness is not about slowing down productivity — it’s about supporting the human capacities that make good work possible.

Joy’s genuine love and extensive knowledge for the subject were evident from the start and resonated throughout the 5-week mindfulness class. Joy was a breath of fresh air in the business setting and surpassed all expectations for the course.

Who Benefits from These Sessions

My workplace sessions are well-suited for:

  • Law firms and legal organizations

  • Professional services and corporate teams

  • Nonprofits and mission-driven organizations

  • Educators and academic departments

  • Healthcare and caregiving teams

I’ve worked extensively with caregiving and helping professionals, and I bring that same care and realism into every workplace setting.

The tone is clear, grounded, and immediately useful, with language and examples that resonate with analytical and professional audiences.

Joy takes a topic that is new to some and makes it instantly accessible. Her warm, welcoming and accessible method of teaching mindfulness is something everyone can benefit from regardless of the industry. She uses timely and practical examples on which to base her sessions and has great instincts about what the group needs.
— Colleen Rortvedt, Director of Appleton Public Library

Options Beyond the Intro Session

Many organizations begin with an introductory session and then choose to continue. Additional options include:

  • Multi-session mindfulness series (weekly or monthly)

  • Stress resilience or burnout prevention sessions

  • Short mindfulness “brain breaks” integrated into meetings or retreats

  • Customized workshops addressing specific organizational challenges

We can explore what format best supports your goals.
