10 Most Zen-Friendly Websites to Keep You Calm and Productive at Work
Do you feel like you can no longer cope with the stress of meeting your deadlines? Does the lack of concentration stop you from focusing on your goals? Are you stuck or stressed out? Then put your headphones on. Try using some of the most Zen-friendly websites on offer that really work wonders for keeping your cool in the workplace.
1. Do Nothing For 2 Minutes
Yes, that’s exactly what you should do for the next two minutes. Nothing. Just sit comfortably, watch the screen and listen to the sound of waves. Will you be able to sit still without touching the mouse or keyboard? See for yourself.
2. Calm
Calm.com also challenges you to sit still and quiet your mind. Apart from that, you can benefit from a selection of guided meditations that can last from two minutes to 20, depending on how long you’d like to take a break from your hectic surroundings.
You can choose from the many calming atmospheres that are available — gentle waves, fields, waterfalls. And what’s even better about it is that you can take Calm with you. The iPhone app can be downloaded for free, and there are three options for paid subscriptions if you want to go for Pro Access.
3. SimplyNoise
SimplyNoise uses white, pink and brown noise. You just need to pick a color, slide the knob to the level that’s comfortable for you and enjoy the sound. I’d recommend white and pink noise while you’re at work to keep you alert, focused and productive. White noise uses sound across all frequencies and blocks distractions, making it great for studying and writing. Pink noise uses a mix of high and low frequencies, which is great for reducing your stress while keeping you energized.
4. SimplyRain
SimplyRain belongs to the SimplyNoise website and it simply plays the rain sounds for you. You slide the blue orb to adjust the rain intensity and adjust the volume by sliding the metal knob. Change the storm ambiance by toggling the thunder orb. Based on different algorithms, SimplyRain generates a randomized procedural storm each time you tune in. BothSimplyNoise and SimplyRain apps are also available on iTunes for $0.99 each.
5. Rainy Mood
On top of the rain, thunder and bird sounds, there’s no audio limit and it plays a YouTube video every day that fits perfectly with the sound of rain. I learned about it when I read how online marketing expert and Overit’s VP of Strategy Lisa Barone writes.
6. Coffitivity
You can’t afford spending every morning at Starbucks? No probs. Bring the coffee shop vibe into your own home, on your own desktop, to get your much needed creativity boost. Coffitivity has a neat and beautiful interface and blends calm and commotion in such a way that makes your creative juices flow. They also link to a super comprehensive study about “Exploring the Effects of Ambient Noise on Creative Cognition.”
7. naturesoundsfor.me
With naturesoundsfor.me you can mix four different sounds, but you have a wide range to choose from: tribal drums, animals, fireworks, heart beat, you name it.
8. Focus@Will
Focus@Will is fantastic! It uses phase-sequenced instrumental music that increases your attention span up to 400 percent when reading, writing, or studying. Apart from that, it extends the standard 20- to 30-minute productivity cycle to approximately 100 minutes.
The music stream (Alpha Chill works for me) engages your background attention to such an extent that it doesn’t interfere with your conscious focal attention on the task you work on. As for the costs, you can choose from three different account types: Guest, Personal and Pro.
9. Get Work Done Music
Get Work Done Music simply plays upbeat, instrumental tunes from Soundcloud. It’s pretty straightforward to use with very few controls — just the play/pause button, Fast and Faster, and “gimme the next one cap’n” to switch to the next song.
10. Teamviz
Last, but not least, Teamviz is the icing on the cake among the tools that help you stay on schedule as you prioritize your tasks and approach them one by one. There’s no music, but this is probably one of the best productivity tools out there.
Formerly known as PomodoroApp, this free downloadable app, which is basically a timer, allows you to break your working routine in 30-minute chunks. You work for 25 minutes then take a 5-minute break. What you choose to do during that break is important. Stay away from email and social media. I for one meditate. That’s when Calm.com or donothingfor2minutes.com, for instance, come in handy.
From LifeHack.org
You’ll have moments when you feel like a lion, and moments when you feel like a mouse. Just know that no matter how you feel, you still have a heartbeat and a soul worthy of love, so learn to roar even when you feel small, because you are more than the feelings you may have.

just a reminder
“…Because sometimes I need a reminder. Pain is real, whether it’s from depression or anxiety or arthritis or one of the many invisible illnesses that don’t easily show themselves but still exist and have to be treated, and – more importantly – have to be believed in order to be treated. You need to know that your struggle is a real one. You need to know that your fight is real and your survival is something to be proud of. Remember that you are needed. Remember that the things you say can affect those of us who fight. Remember that not all things are visible and provable. Love, faith, pain, anxiety, depression, compassion…these aren’t always quantifiable. They aren’t always measurable. They are often invisible. But they are real.
And so are you.
Stay real. Stay alive. Stay vigilant against assholes who make you question yourself. We already get enough of that from the doubting voices in our heads and the lies depression tells us. Listen to my voice, now. You are real. You are worthwhile. You are so important both in ways you will discover, and in ways you’ll never see. You send out needed ripples of greatness and kindness in unexpected and accidental ways.
You won’t always see wonderful ways in which you shift the world. They may be invisible to you. But I promise you they are real.”

“Just because you can’t see it, doesn’t mean it’s not real.”

Help for Depression
1. Believe that recovery is possible for you. 2. Believe that you won’t always feel this bleak and terrible. 3. Believe that you are precious, and have value, and worth. 4. Believe that you have talents, and have so much more to give. 5. Believe that you are wanted and, one day, will find love. 6. Believe you can keep going – and find the strength to live.
Easier said than done, but good reminders.
“I am learning everyday to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be to inspire me and not terrify me.”
Without light, we wouldn’t know that darkness could be defeated. We wouldn’t know that the darkness couldn’t last, regardless of how long it stays.

Grounding meditation Through root chakra
I personally just did this, and enjoy doing these types of meditations and mantras when I feel anxious or lost or confused. Grounding can really give me the comfort I need again and this guided meditation makes it easy when the mind feels frazzled! Enjoy, namaste ~
Practice SELF CARE!
Some great ideas!

“Adopting the right attitude can convert a negative stress into a positive one.”
- Hans Selye
When you're depressed, it's important to get moving. Sometimes yoga is a gentle way to ease into movement that isn't overwhelming.
