Those who took part in the training showed increases m spe cific mindfulness skills, including a greater ability to observe and describe their own experience, and to act with awareness, said Philippe Goldin, a psychologist at Stanford, who assessed the pro gram's effects.
"The participants said they had become better able to use self regulation strategies-like redirecting their attention to less upset ting aspects of loaded situations-in the heat of the moment when their attention was being hijacked," Goldin added. "They're build ing the muscle of attention deployment so they can choose what aspect of experience to attend to. It's a volitional redirection of at tention. And they're more able to use these attention skills when they are really needed.
"We also found a boost in empathic concern for others, and being able to listen better," Goldin said. "One is an attitude, the other the actual skill, the muscle. These are vitally important in the workplace."
One division head at General Mills came to the mindfulness course there to get a breather from feeling overwhelmed. She brought a taste of mindfulness back to work, where she asked her direct reports to take a reflective pause before asking her to a meet ing. The aim of that pause was to question the need for the division head to spend her time at that meeting in the first place.
The result: What had been a nine-to-five schedule of back-to hack meetings opened up into three hours daily for her own priorities.

•  Not taste your food while eating?
•  Pay more attention to your iPoJ than the per:;on you're with?
•  Are you skimming this book?
