TAKE 15 - Meditation Works

TAKE 15 is Aramark’s annual campaign to encourage all our clients, customers, staff and students to TAKE 15 minutes away from their work or study environment to unwind and recover from stress.

TAKE 15’s goal is to help encourage positive mental health wherever people work, learn and play with a focus on mindfulness and removing the stigma associated with mental health by encouraging more conversation and engagement with employees, clients and customers.   

Research has shown that the key to unwinding and combating the effects of work stress is taking breaks. Relaxation is associated with:

• Improved positive mood

• An increased sense of vigour and attentiveness

• Reduction in fatigue and negative emotions.

Relax and unwind during a 15-minute guided meditation and check out the video below from Meditation Works. (Password to access video below: Aramark2021*)

No matter where you are or what your experience with meditation is, you can partake in this meditation series and can feel free to revisit it as you continue to TAKE 15 each day.
