Importance of Meditation to be a Better Entrepreneur

Bradley Raider is a teacher, award-winning filmmaker, and entrepreneur who is fascinated by consciousness expansion. Today on the EO Podcast, Bradley discusses the importance of meditation for entrepreneurs to improve their creativity, productivity, and stress levels. Tune in to learn how Bradley discovered meditation, worked as an apprentice, and began to teach – all while still having the time to release his film “Kensho at the Bedfellow.”

Key Points:

1. Meditation is important for entrepreneurs because it increases creativity and adaptability while decreasing stress and illness.
2. Everyone has time to meditate; it increases productivity so you are more efficient with your time.
3. Vedic meditation is different from other types of meditation; 20 minutes 2 times a day is the minimal, optimal prescription.

BRADLEY RAIDER is the founder and executive director of MDT8 (short for meditate), a global organization that trains individuals and companies to be completely self-sufficient in the practice of meditation.

His work as a teacher, award-winning filmmaker, and entrepreneur is rooted in a deep fascination with consciousness expansion and its practical integration with creativity, productivity, and life purpose.

Having traveled with and trained as protégé to the pre-eminent master of Vedic knowledge, Maharishi Vyasananda, Bradley has practiced and studied the subtle art and science of meditation for the last fifteen years.

His certification as a Vedic Meditation teacher (one of only a few hundred in the world) compliments a holistic approach to health, equanimity, and high performance that includes yoga, Eastern philosophy, performance coaching, and bio-hacking.

Bradley’s students include CEOs, clinical psychologists, doctors, attorneys, Academy / Emmy / Tony-award nominated filmmakers and theatre artists, and students ranging in age from 4 – 74. One of his greatest passions is sharing wisdom and experience with humor and inspiration, helping individuals and companies to realize their fullest potential.
