THE RESILIENT WORKPLACE
Somatic Strategies for Workplace Wellness
Workplaces are reporting unprecedented rates of burnout and fatigue. The world is increasingly fast-paced and it’s easy for us to become distracted, overwhelmed, exhausted, and disconnected. With so many demands on our time and attention both at work and home, it’s a real challenge to find a sense of balance and ease. Physical and emotional fatigue and disconnection impact not only our well-being, but also reduce productivity, creativity, collaboration, and morale. How can somatic tools help? Reach out or read on to find out more.
The Resilient Workplace is an experiential workshop (or series) designed to help your team reset, recharge and re-engage using simple, science-backed somatic tools that support nervous system regulation, emotional well-being and workplace cohesion.
Why Somatic Tools?
-
Somatic (body-based) strategies help people move out of stress and restore balance. They allow the nervous system to discharge accumulated mental, emotional and physical stress and build resilience.
-
These practical, accessible tools can be done in small doses throughout the day. They don’t require special equipment or even a yoga mat—just the body’s innate ability to regulate and restore.
-
Participants leave with real-life techniques they can use almost anywhere, at work or home. Done regularly, these tools can benefit mood, focus and overall sense of well-being.
Benefits of Regular Somatic Practice include:
Lower stress and burnout through nervous system supporting tools
Greater emotional resilience and capacity to handle challenges with more ease
Improved mood and reduced reactivity, tension and overwhelm
Increased focus, creativity, collaboration and engagement
Fostering a culture of well-being and care that benefits participants both at work and home
Formats (virtual or in-person):
Each session is interactive, trauma-informed, and tailored to your workplace needs. Options include:
60–90 minute workshops (virtual or in-person) with follow up audio recording of tools
Multi-part series of 3-6 workshops for increased benefit and deeper integration
