“Meditation and intuition are the two most valuable executive tools for the 21st century.”
Harvard Business School
For nearly 20 years Carolyne was immersed in the corporate world, working as an advertising director in the fast-paced publishing industry for most of her career. She is only too familiar with the common stresses that throw work/life balance completely out of sync. Tight deadlines, competitive pitches, aggressive budgets, demanding staff, relentless clients, tough retail conditions, interest rises, sale slumps…the list is endless. Her primary reprieve during this time was meditation.
It’s from this experience, Carolyne has designed her bespoke corporate wellbeing workshops. Private or group, each is customised to deliver the best results against your company’s specific objectives.
Carolyne is also available for public speaking engagements presenting on a variety of topics from the importance of meditation, its origins and the specifics of the Primordial Sound Meditation technique; to the power of positive affirmations, chakras and the law of attraction.

Testimonial From ANZ Bank
Carolyne presented to ANZ staff the benefits of meditation during our mental health awareness month in October 2011 and the feedback from the session was excellent. Carolyne’s passion, enthusiasm and knowledge of meditation was first class which resulted in a very successful seminar and generated much interest in Meditation. In fact, we are looking into running regular meditation classes for staff in 2012. Carolyne is easy to work with, professional and her enthusiasm is infectious which makes working with her an enjoyable experience.

Testimonial From 6 Degrees
We recently had the pleasure of being taught how to meditate by Carolyne Gowen of Still Your Mind.
Our team enjoyed a series of sessions that explained the personal benefits of meditation, the background, how to do meditate and the business payoff. We all received personal mantras and all of us are using them on an ongoing basis.
We are all very busy people, often stressed by unpredictable workloads and deadlines.I can say without doubt that the meditation techniques Carolyne taught us has helped us all stay calm and less stressed through a very busy period!!
Carolyne is a passionate person who presents the data with energy and care for her audience. I’d highly recommend Carolyne and the workshops to anyone seeking to help their people become more resilient and more productive.

Testimonial From TV1 & Sci-Fi
Carolyne presented a great introduction session on meditation at our annual TV1 and SCI FI marketing offsite conference. She showed an understanding of our business and incorporated it into her presentation which covered the benefits of meditation, the effects of stress and the power of positive thinking. The concepts were clear and the team all enjoyed the chance to meditate, some for the first time. It generated much discussion and set the scene for a very positive and enjoyable two days of team building. Thank you Carolyne!

Testimonial From Moon Communications Group
Carolyne came in to our offices and facilitated several sessions for our staff here at Moon. She was incredibly flexible with her time and managed to accommodate all of us with our difficult timetables.
From my own experience and the feedback I’ve had from others that participated, I can only say – she very generously and passionately shared her gift with us. Her kind, warm nature resonated with everyone that took the class. What we’ve learnt is invaluable and I can’t thank her enough for what she has given us.
Meditation has changed my day to day life. It’s an invaluable tool for the busy lives we lead here at work and at home.
I would recommend Carolyne without hesitation.

Testimonial From Clinque
‘It was the end of year brand meeting and we needed something/ someone to help us get the edge for the coming year. Our business had been tough and even though I work with an amazing and talented team, we needed some help shifting our thinking.
There was Carolyne Gowen with her melodic voice and inspiring view on how to change your thinking.
Carolyne and I have known each other professionally for 15 years and she has always been an inspiration to me. When she decided to help others in the professional world via changing your thinking and meditation, I knew that she could help me give our team the edge they needed. The Still Your Mind presentation and meditation was a hit with everyone of our 30 strong team. They loved the content and the balanced approach to the 1.5 hour session.
We now walk into the new year full of hope and I know that every team member has been given the tools by Carolyne to shift their thinking. Not just professionally but persoanlly as well.
I would recommend you let Carolyne into your business and work her magic. You will be a changed person for it’

Testimonial From Maxted Thomas
“After completing the Primordial Sound Meditation course with Carolyne and experiencing the benefits of meditation first hand, I had no hesitation in hiring Carolyne for a NIVEA event. We wanted to highlight meditation as a skill for life whilst also showing how it is such a simple and easy daily activity. Carolyne was able to condense the wealth of knowledge she has into bite sized pieces whilst also embodying pure centredness and balance. Our guests not only left feeling calmer and focused but inspired and interested.
I highly recommend Carolyne for any corporate event and fully trust that she can bring a unique quality to the experience.”
