Wellness at work?
Here’s why
In professional working environments today, about 79% of British adults in employment report suffering from work-related stress – not only does this lead to high turnovers, absenteeism, and poor productivity, but a general low mood, which in turn affects life outside of the workplace. Stress can also lead to a plethora of mental and physical health issues, ranging from burnout to chronic muscular-skeletal pains.
This is where WorkBalance comes in.
Focused on holistic wellness in the workplace, and in turn, life, our sole purpose is to provide companies with customised wellbeing education and activities to improve their working environment. We aim to help people enhance their physical and mental wellness, and this starts at the office.
Countless studies uphold how physical exercise and yoga at work can be cost-effective, as well as beneficial for overall health and company success.
Regular yoga, meditation and physical exercise sessions are some of the most sustainable ways to improve focus, motivation, and moreover, the general atmosphere at work. Reducing staff turnover, improving employer loyalty and increasing mood for better performance are all results proven by integrating holistic practices in the corporate environment. Something as simple as a regular thirty-minute lunchtime power-down session is proven to boost morale, increase enthusiasm and change your team for the better.
At WorkBalance, we provide bespoke meditation, yoga, and wellbeing education sessions led by experienced industry professionals, for industry professionals.
