From Chaos to Calm: Using Meditation to Navigate Women’s Work-life Balance Challenges

The modern workplace has become increasingly demanding, with longer work hours, higher stress levels, and constant pressure to balance professional and personal responsibilities. This is particularly true for working women, who often bear the brunt of domestic and caregiving duties in addition to their careers. The current study investigates the use of meditation as a tool to help working women achieve a healthier work-life balance. The findings suggest that meditation can be a powerful resource, helping working women reduce stress, improve focus and productivity, and foster a greater sense of work-life integration. Meditation can provide working women with valuable coping mechanisms to navigate the challenges of the modern workplace. By taking time to quiet the mind and focus on the present moment, working women can achieve a greater sense of control and balance in their lives. This, in turn, can lead to improved mental and physical well-being, as well as enhanced job performance and career satisfaction. Ultimately, the study highlights the potential for meditation to serve as a transformative tool for working women, empowering them to thrive in both their professional and personal spheres.
