Mediation has definitely become more popular as people feel much calmer after meditating. I think people years ago thought it was all about WOO WOO, but now people and companies see the benefits. Doctors also encourage mediation.
I find meditation has helped my life massively. There are top leaders which are known to meditate as they understand the benefits for them which in turn will benefit their business.
A clear-minded focused person is a better decision-maker rather than a stressed-out one!
