The corporate ladder is a familiar climb for most Singaporeans—the ceaseless hustle and bustle of the CBD will show you just that. Yet, with success comes an overwhelming burden of stress that begs for respite. Enter meditation, offering stillness and peace of mind, but how exactly could it serve as a practical tool in managing stress?
For Deepak Chopra, despite his perpetually busy schedule, maintaining a serene composure is second nature. Even amidst a long journey to the Lion City for three charitable events for The Chopra Foundation, including a talk and guided meditation session the night before our interview, he remains as cool as a cucumber. “Well, I’m healthy; I’m 77 and never been sick and I’ve been, by everyone’s standards, reasonably successful. No stress; I enjoy every moment,” Chopra says. “The benefits are just purely biological, you know—good health, energetic body, healthy emotions, clarity of mind, lightness of spirit, and lightness of being.”
One of the foremost figures in alternative medicine, a New York Times bestseller, and TIME’s 100 Most Influential People, Chopra is intimately acquainted with the power of the mind.
