The Founder of Antistress Society in Switzerland, Matus Kmit M.A., applies Nitaai Meditation techniques for increased productivity as well as an optimal work-life balance and inspires his co-workers to do the same.
Matus Kmitโs recommendation
I am a senior software engineer working at the Zurich University of Arts. My profession requires precise and innovative cognitive skills as well as a pragmatic, open-minded attitude when searching for optimal solutions in cooperation with my colleagues. At the same time, I need the ability to quickly โswitch-offโ and โrecharge my batteriesโ and thus gain fresh perspectives on the nature of complex problems.
Since I have been practicing Nitaai Meditation, I can confirm the following benefits in regards to my work and private life:
โ Improved ability to dive deeper into the problem at hand without getting lost in its irrelevant aspects.
โ Improved ability to retain focus and flow in writing code for longer periods of time.
โ Improved ability to approach technical and product-related discussions with an open, unbiased state of mind.
โ Improved ability to better understand and appreciate othersโ points of view.
โ Improved ability to stay cool amidst โdifficultโ discussions and participate in a constructive way.
โ Improved ability to quicker and easier relax mind and body after a strenuous day at work.
โ Improved ability to smoother transition from work to life and vice-versa and keep a clear and natural border-line between them.
โ Increased quantity of original ideas.
โ Finer and more empathetic social interactions.
โ Decreased stress.
โ Better sleep.
