Minds behind the Venture
Alok Taunk, the co-founder & excellence coach at Eastern Mindfulness, holds an intensive corporate experience of more than a decade, where he was a part of various organizations working across various roles including sales, marketing, digital advertisements, online marketing & was also a part of many corporate think tanks. Also, he has been practicing various self-enhancing scientific mindfulness & other Vedic practices under the direct supervision of a Himalayan master for around eleven years from now. He noticed how people across the corporate realm are facing burnouts due to increasing stress, responsibilities, pressure, which is also hampering their other walks of lives.
Similarly is the case with students, who are constantly living under judgments & pressure. Thus he, along with Geetanjali who holds deep interest & strategic formulations in diet & nutrition thought of coming up with Eastern Mindfulness – A platform offering tools for optimizing performances. They are also working on an application called MindField App, which would offer guided meditations, wisdom audios etc which is likely to be launched in Coming Months. A new year gift to humanity for their holistic wellbeing.
