Safe Stress

Health and Safety Executives state 50% of absenteeism from work is stress related

Employees often feel under pressure to perform optimally and become overwhelmed with the amount of work undertaken. This interactive and thought provoking workshop will start to provide employees with a clear strategy to manage both their own, and their team’s, stress levels. This is designed to promote a robust, flexible and passionate workforce. As a company you will learn:

  • The physiological effects of stress on your mind and body
  • The classic signs of stress and anxiety and how to cope
  • The warning signals associated with burnout
  • Positive stress management
  • Negative stress management

Great Posture at Work

8 out of 10 employees will suffer from back pain continually.
An average of 11 days per employee are missed due to back pain in the UK.

Many employees spend the majority of their day just sitting at a desk, without moving around. The long term result of this is often a weak lower back and rounded shoulders. This can prevent a good flow of blood to the brain thus resulting in reduced concentration levels and lower levels of productivity. This interactive workshop will:

  • Explain why good posture is important
  • Promote the benefits of good posture
  • Provide functional tips to improve posture at work
  • Assess employees' posture
  • Demonstrate equipment to develop good posture and circulation

Nutrition for Fantastic Brain Power

54% of stress and poor concentration at work is made worse by poor nutrition & a lack of essential vitamins and minerals including Vitamin B, C and Zinc (Holford 2002).

When your brain is fed and hydrated well you will have constantly high productivity and concentration levels. There are several essential brain foods, which when combined with a healthy lifestyle, will give optimal mental clarity. During this interactive seminar you will learn:

  • How to balance glucose levels which fuel the brain
  • Which essential fats keep the brain well oiled and which fats destroy the brain
  • Which proteins help with the brain transmission
  • Which vitamins and minerals fine tune the mind
  • How sleep and eating habits affect the food you eat – even if it is healthy

Great Work Life Balance

Absenteeism costs the UK £11.6bn a year, according to the CBI.Better work-life policies make people healthier and happier and so less likely to take time off work.

Work-Life Balance is a constant challenge for the employee, and without it the long term likelihood of illness and burnout is high. This interactive workshop is designed to challenge each individual to put their life in balance and make sure that each area has something of value in it. From this workshop individuals will take away an understanding of:

  • How a good worklife balance improves well being, productivity and commitment
  • How poor worklife balance often leads to long term ill health
  • How to anaylse their own worklife balance
  • How to commit to change at least one thing

Achieve your Goals with NLP

The power of change is controlled by an individual’s belief patterns – be that positive or negative. By formulating ‘timelines’ one can set their goals in an effective and positive manner whilst understanding and highlighting limiting beliefs. Timelines encourage individuals to look at the past, present and future have a much higher success rate than more conventional methods. Timelines have been used with many major companies such as GlaxoSmithkline. During this workshop employees will:

  • Gain a clear action plan with achievable goals
  • Identify skills from the past that will be useful in the future
  • Identify how to develop skills required for the future
  • Learn how to cope with challenging situations
  • Empower individuals with the courage to change

Health & Well Being

This circuit provokes change in the individual and highlights areas of their lifestyle which could have serious long term implications on their health and well being.

The workshop focuses on nutrition (amouts of carbohydrates, proteins, fats and water a body needs per day), weight, blood pressure, body fats, lung functioning, strength and cardio vascular. It is a simple, fun, interactive session which gets people thinking and works well in conjunction with the NLP Timelines and Goal Setting workshops. Employees can set goals which are measurable from the test results.

This workshop is highly popular with all organisations and individuals and will provide clear defined results. It is often successfully combined with the Relaxation Techinques and Massage workshops.

Overcoming Obstacles & Barriers (Metaphor Circuit)

This is a bodywork activity that promotes self-awareness in combination with physical activity. The approach is unique in that it goes beyond the ‘feel-good’ factor associated with exercise and moves people through a pre determined metaphorical exercise. This circuit effectively combines the benefits of exercise with the power of NLP and change. It has been successfully integrated into NHS Groups (SAD Disorder and Depression) as well as with companies such as the BBC. A large space is required and individuals will need to be prepared to move their bodies. This workshop will help employees to:

  • Assess their life and make positive changes
  • Understand areas within their life which may be restricting them
  • Combat communication frustrations, anger and anxiety in a beneficial, progressive way
  • Appreciate the areas of their life which make them feel happy
  • Improve communication and understanding with each other
  • Develop team building and interaction skills
