Dada Nabhaniilananda, also known as The Monk Dude, is an award winning songwriter, Author, Comedy Writer, Corporate Trainer, Meditation Instructor, and Yoga Monk.
Born in New Zealand, he was ordained as a monk in India in 1979. He has won seven international songwriting awards, produced eight musical albums and his popular book, "Close Your Eyes and Open Your Mind - A Practical Guide to Spiritual Meditation," has been published in 12 languages. He has co-founded two companies: Bliss Timer - a meditation app and Planetary Leadership Training - an international non-profit for young future leaders.
Dada has appeared on stage with the Dalai Lama, spoken in more than 40 countries and has spoken for Apple, Google, Facebook, TEDx and numerous other companies and universities. He helps people reduce Stress, Distraction and Anxiety so they can connect to their inner source of Calm, Clarity and Creativity.
According to a 2 year study by Aetna Health Insurance, their internal meditation program reduced stress and increased productivity and saved the company $5000 per participant per year.
Stress, anxiety and distraction exact a huge personal and financial cost on individuals and organizations. Meditation is a proven way to reduce this cost. The problem is, many people find it hard to adopt a regular meditation practice. Over the last 40 years Dada has developed ways to make meditation more enjoyable and accessible for busy professionals.
Imagine how your team and your company would benefit if they were less stressed, anxious and distracted?
Meditation dates back more than 7000 years. But only recently has technology allowed us to objectively measure its effects. The results are remarkable. Outcomes range from increased creativity, better focus and peaceful sleep, to reduced blood pressure, improved brain health and greater longevity. Nobel Laureate, Dr Elizabeth Blackburn draws a connection between slowing aging and meditation practice. No wonder more than 80% of high achievers practice meditation.
Learn how this ancient practice, now supported by a flood of research, can help transform your life and your work.
A 2010 IBM survey of more than 3,000 organizations identified creativity as the #1 quality they look for in future leaders.
“I think a 99 times and get nothing. I float in silence, and the truth comes to me.” - Albert Einstein
All innovation starts with an idea. Or more likely, 99 bad ideas, and one good one. Our best new ideas tend to arise when we are relaxed, at play, in the shower, walking in nature or even in a dream. When the mind is calm. Not so much when we are anxious or over-thinking a problem or up against a deadline. That's why the calming effect of meditation is so effective in inducing a creative 'flow state'.
“Certain meditation techniques can promote creative thinking, even if you’ve never meditated before.” Leiden University study, 2012
Learn how, with the right 'inside-out' approach, you can ignite your own creative spark and build a culture of innovation in your organization.
We outsourced recalling phone numbers to our devices long ago. We are all effectively 'centaurs', letting 'thinking silicon' fly our planes, memorize law libraries, implement investment strategies, and read medical image scans. For routine mental tasks, silicon is just way better than carbon. Oh, and unlike us, it evolves exponentially. We've barely begun to see the disruption.
"We're educating our children for a future that no longer exists." - Sohail Inayatullah - UNESCO chair for Future Studies.
How can we prepare our minds, and those of the next generation, for this increasingly unpredictable future?
How about we strengthen our uniquely human faculties. No machine has intuition, empathy, creativity, self-awareness or the ability to experience, well, anything. These so-called 'soft-skills' are fast becoming paramount. As luck would have it, that list almost exactly matches the list of outcomes from a regular meditation practice.

I love Dada's humor, first of all. It not only kept me awake, it kept me interested, and in the end I found I had learned something of value to my life. Couldn't ask for anything more. Keep up the good work!

I've had the pleasure of hearing Dada speak on several occasions and have been continuously inspired by his life stories and spirit. He has dedicated his life to expanding people's consciousness, self-awareness, and spiritual longing. The most amazing thing about Dada is the childhood-like wonder and energy with which he experiences the world. He is constantly smiling, joking and sharing love at every chance he gets. Do yourself a favor and listen to him speak!
