About Us
Based in Amsterdam, available worldwide, The Meditation Office specializes in science-based meditation sessions and workshops for businesses and individuals.
From reducing stress to boosting performance and creativity, The Meditation Office combines the ancient practice of meditation with the modern science of neurobiology to offer solutions that work.
Our Values
Integrity
Forget the bold promises or the far-fetched claims, at The Meditation Office, all our programs are based on research, decades of experience and the integrative theoretical framework proposed by Dr. David R. Vago.
Science-Based
Meditation goes well beyond crossed legs, serene looks and humming sounds. If done right, it can have a tremendous impact at home and in the workplace. We separate fact from fiction to design evidence-based and scientifically-sound programs that truly make a difference.
Practical
Real problems need real solutions, and that’s exactly what we offer. We zero in on your needs and design a strategy to address them with meditation and its proven results.
Reliable
Life and work are, at times, stressful enough. We focus on helping you make meditation happen by integrating it into your routine or workplace seamlessly.
Meet Davide
Prior to founding The Meditation Office, educator, trainer and stress management coach Davide Piai worked as an Executive Director of an international educational organisation with presence in over 15 countries—an experience that would lay the foundation for The Meditation Office.
Inspired by a fascination for understanding how the mind works, Davide immersed himself in contemplative practices, including five years at a traditional Buddhist philosophy college in Nepal, long practice retreats and deep, hands-on experiences of meditation.
However, the idea for The Meditation Office would only surface later. After years of sustained stress from a demanding job, Davide went on a journey to discover how he could make work less stressful by applying what he had learned.
Today, he helps people implement actionable steps to eliminate unsustainable stress in their lives, gain unparalleled clarity and enhance leadership qualities by combining the ancient wisdom of eastern spiritual traditions and the pragmatism of the latest scientific research on meditation.
“Davide came at a crucial stage into my life and he became a trusted mentor to me. Through his style and approach, which is through non judgement and listening, he shared invaluable lessons in meditation. This helped me profoundly.
I would recommend any executive, at a stage in their life where they want to live a more meaningful life, to personally work with Davide. And for corporations, adding Davide’s help to your leadership in growth, is a big and precious gift to them.”
