Workplace Wellness
Learn the Taoist way
Wellness in the workplace requires a shift away from knee-jerk reactions to illness and stress. At a time when people may feel stressed or overwhelmed with workloads, issues of physical and mental health need to be to the fore of company strategies. A well-targeted corporate wellness programme empowers employees to manage their health and helps them to feel supported and valued in their roles.
​
Investing in a culture of wellbeing for your staff can transform your business. When people are functioning optimally, your business will experience higher performance standards, greater staff engagement and enhanced productivity – all of which lead to better outcomes. Healthy employees also means fewer sick days, reduced absenteeism and lower turnover which in turn leads to reduced recruitment and training costs.
​
By creating a desirable workplace with meaningful supports in place, your staff will not just be more motivated and productive, but happier and more dedicated to your team.
About Us
We teach workplace wellness programs incorporating Taoist practice – a system of self-mastery that focuses on improving health and longevity. It originates from ancient China and is applicable more than ever in our modern pace of life. It involves a combination of movement, breath, and meditation through Chi Kung and energy cultivation techniques. It evokes a deep sense of focus, improved energy levels as well as a feeling of being relaxed.
The Research: A study published by the National Institutes of Health and referenced by Harvard Medical School, found from their review of RCT trials that Qi Gong (Chi Kung) and Tai Chi had significant improvements on physiological and psychological health across a broad spectrum of areas. They identified:
Improved biomarkers in heart health
Increased immunity
Improved self-efficacy : perceived ability to handle stress
Decreased biomarkers for anxiety & depression
Improved quality of life : social relationships and relationship to one’s environment
What We Offer: We deliver inspiring and engaging workshops/courses/talks tailored specifically for your company, whether you are a small, medium or large business. We provide quality tips, tools and self-care practices that can be easily integrated into the workplace environment and at home.
