Abstract: We integrated theories of work family interaction and spirituality and identified-blue light muraqaba meditation(BLMM) as a training intervention for coping work family conflict and nurturing facilitation across work and home domains. A pretest posttest control group field experiment was conducted to empirically test the effectiveness of BLMM in organizational settings. Empirical evidence confirms that the theoretically conceived intervention was effective in coping work family conflict and nurturing facilitation across work and home domains. Intervention was also helpful in overcoming individual differences for family interaction with work. However, the effect of intervention was not same for each individual in the cases of work interference with family and both directions of work-family facilitation. Limitations and future research perspectives are discussed.
