Ladies Of Code January Meetup

Mindful Coding

New Year, New You? Mindful coding? What’s that? Sounds pointless and a trend?!

Whether you’re learning to code or writing code for a living… it can be complex, we can get stuck in the zone and forget that the “real world” exists. Coding requires high levels of concentration, with moments of disappointment. This sometimes can leave us feeling confused and equally there are those moments of pure euphoria when we solve something we’ve been stuck on for days!

With the rollercoaster of emotions that comes with coding, so does mental cloudiness. A developer’s most valuable asset is a clear mind and studies suggest that ten minutes a day improves a person’s cognitive function. We discuss ways in which mindfulness has improved our lives and careers and hope to open up the discussion to the group to share our experiences.

Discover the power of mindfulness to support you in becoming a stronger developer.
