    Namasthe Everyone !
    
    I was feeling a little drained 
    of energy this morning and was looking for a quiet place 
    where i could sit down, meditate and center myself. 
    But i just couldn't find a place to do so ! 
    It wasn't exactly warm outside either..
    Meditating in cubicles, libraries i guess isn't a great idea for 
    various reasons...
    
    I am sure a lot of us must have experienced the same situation
    many times over, wherein we would like a place to sit down
    and meditate or just plain be by ourselves..
    
    The company has sports rooms, smoking rooms etc. Why not a 
    meditation/prayer/be-by-yourself room ? This could to a certain
    extent help increase the productivity of an employee.
    During the times, we don't feel so great ( headaches etc), 
    perhaps a little time spent in such places could make us feel 
    better, rather than take the day off etc.
    
    Any suggestions, comments, criticism ?
    
    In Love,
    rama

|     Many facilities, including the last two at which I have worked,
    have sick rooms, complete with cots, first aid kits, etc.
    
    I think a room like this might serve the purpose.  Try 
    checking with your local facilities manager.  There might
    be some unused space available.

|     We have one TTB.  It's called the Quiet Room.  I've noticed that it's
    used a lot too.

    The 'Quiet Room' sounds like a good name for it.  You know, you
    have to be aware that there would be some resistance to calling
    it a 'meditation' room, as some people based on their religious
    beliefs feel that this is not a healthy practice.
    
    Why not suggest it to your local Facilities group, as well as
    Employee Relations?

               Then there are the days when I need just a ten minute
    cat nap.

|     Hi, Ramakrishnaji, Carole, Mark ... when I need some peace and quiet I
    go sit in my car if the weather isn't amenable to going for a stroll.
