The long lockdown gives meditation apps a boost. Even big employers like Starbucks and AC Milan donate such an app to their employees to boost their mental situation.

According to Dirk Deichmann, lecturer in innovation management at the RSM, makes mindfulness you more creative. He came to that decision after a study published in Harvard Business Review in 2017.

“We found that when managers meditate before a brainstorming session, they come up with more diverse ideas,” Dirk explains. “We believe that’s because people are more open-minded after a meditation—they’ve been pulled out of their tunnel vision.
