In the past few weeks, you’ve likely recently seen an uptick in friends sharing their health challenges on your social media feeds. One challenge that we are committing to this year is meditating.
Meditation studies show that the practice may help reduce anxiety, increase creativity and improve your sleep1. Not only can it be done in most spaces, it also requires little time (10 minutes) and GW offers meditation sessions for free!
This month we are offering a Fitbit raffle for employees who bring a colleague to our meditation sessions at the Foggy Bottom or VSTC campus. Sign up below for one of the meditation sessions in February and we’ll include a signup sheet at meditation events. If your name is chosen, both you and your colleague will both win a Fitbit.
Why Fitbit? Not only is Fitbit a great accountability tool when you’re looking to incorporate a new habit, but it also reminds you throughout the day to breathe and relax. If you’re looking for another accountability tool, download this goal tracker, pin it to your cubicle wall and make a commitment to your wellbeing this year.
