Case Highlight: HarbourVest Partners (Global Investment Firm, London)

During the COVID period, HarbourVest Partners, a leading global investment firm, integrated live online Mindfulness sessions led by Patricia Arias, who at the time worked internally as an Executive Assistant in the London office. 

Recognising the rising stress and isolation of remote work, Patricia began offering twice-weekly wellbeing sessions to her colleagues, reaching up to 100 participants across international offices. 

Participant feedback highlighted:
 

• Noticeable reduction in stress and tension 
• Increased focus and productivity throughout the workday 
• A stronger sense of connection, balance, and morale within teams 

What began as an internal wellbeing initiative became a powerful example of how mindfulness and energy awareness practices can transform the corporate work environment — fostering resilience, clarity, and collaboration even during challenging times.
