Warriors in the Workplace



The Tibetan word for warroirr is pawo, which means to ignore the challenger. The warrior is one who does not engage in aggression. When there is no aggression -trust takes place. When you begin to trust genuinely, you will feel at ease. 

 How is it possible that one moment I am driving myself mad, distracted by the things happening around me, and the next I am able to be relaxed? When we resist the temptation of conflict, we are at peace. 

 Here are my top 3 tips for staying calm in the workplace:

 1. Add a touch of beauty to your work station. I love putting up photos and having fresh flowers on my desk. 

 2. Spread positivity by performing random acts of kindness in the office. Bring cookies for your receptionist or an extra coffee for a co-worker. 

 3. Responding out of anger isn't the best path. Take deep breathes and gather yourself before replying.

Rotary Peace Grove at Tilden Park

Image
High atop the hills of Tilden Park sits a serene sanctuary known as the Rotary Peace Grove. This section of the park was donated to Berkeley Rotary in 1955 when they began planting redwood trees. Each year, a different tree is dedicated to a leader in world peace and bronze plaques are displayed with the honorees' names at the base of each tree. The members of the Rotary club prune and  clean up regularly to help preserve the magic and the beauty. The hike to the grove makes a wonderful outing for the entire family.
