Well-Being at work
Wonderful Life Academy offers a variety of workplace Well-Being sessions.
We can replicate our local well being group sessions allowing your Team Members to attend our weekly 1 hour sessions as frequently as they like.
We also offer bespoke sessions to suit your organisations values or mission statement. These sessions can be as frequent as you like and offered to any group size.
We would love to build a relationship where organisations such as yours benefit from our FREE coaching whilst also making the most of the opportunity that supporting a Charity brings.
If you are an employee and would like to ask your employer to run Well-Being sessions our team are more than happy to support you with your suggestion
Do you care for your team? Is their well-being important to you?
Positive Well-being is good for employees and employers alike. Research suggests it can have an impact on motivation, productivity, absenteeism and staff turnover.
Indeed, figures from the Centre for Mental Health suggest that UK companies lose £34.9 billion in productivity as a result of mental health issues alone.
At Wonderful Life Academy we specialise in Well-Being and help organisations like yours look after their employees and their well-Being.
Peter Simpson of Anglian Water says that for every £1 the company spent on Well-Being it got £8 of benefit back.
The key challenge in trying to create a workplace culture that supports employee wellbeing is that there are a number of different factors at play, from mental health and stress, to physical factors such as sleep, fitness and illness as well as financial well-being and general job satisfaction. It’s therefore important to give employees choice of a range of different support options and benefits in order to meet their varied needs and interests.
Our Wonderful Life Employee workshops support the 5 key areas of Well-Being; Physical Well-Being, Mental Well-Being , Emotional Well-Being , Spiritual Well-Being and social Well-Being.
We also provide tools and techniques that will help your employees improve their financial Well-Being and their work life balance.
NHS England agrees with us and recommends 5 Key steps to improved Well-Being.
1. Connect with other people
Good relationships are important for your mental wellbeing. They can:
· help you to build a sense of belonging and self-worth
· give you an opportunity to share positive experiences
· provide emotional support and allow you to support others
Our Workshops are a social experience and we encourage everyone we meet to connect with others.
2. Be physically active
Being active is not only great for your physical health and fitness. Evidence also shows it can also improve your mental wellbeing by:
· raising your self-esteem
· helping you to set goals or challenges and achieve them
· causing chemical changes in your brain which can help to positively change your mood.
Wonderful Life Workshops encourage a range of physical activity to suit everyone.
3. Learn new skills
Research shows that learning new skills can also improve your mental wellbeing by:
· boosting self-confidence and raising self-esteem
· helping you to build a sense of purpose
· helping you to connect with others
Even if you feel like you do not have enough time, or you may not need to learn new things, there are lots of different ways to bring learning into your life.
As part of our ‘5-A-Day’ programme we encourage everyone to learn something new every day!
4. Give to others
Research suggests that acts of giving and kindness can help improve your mental wellbeing -by:
· creating positive feelings and a sense of reward
· giving you a feeling of purpose and self-worth
· helping you connect with other people
It could be small acts of kindness towards other people, or larger ones like volunteering in your local community.
Wonderful Life Workshops provide opportunities for employees to give and receive positive feedback to help improve self worth.
5. Pay attention to the present moment (mindfulness)
Paying more attention to the present moment can improve your mental wellbeing. This includes your thoughts and feelings, your body and the world around you.
Some people call this awareness “mindfulness”. Mindfulness can help you enjoy life more and understand yourself better. It can positively change the way you feel about life and how you approach challenges.
At the end of every workshop and on-line we provide employees with our Takeaways for them to practice at home. Many of our Takeaways are based in mindfulness and presented in our own unique way.
Wonderful Life Academy has a range of options to support you in creating your Well-being culture.
Our specially trained coaches will facilitate regular Well-being workshops designed to improve the Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual Well-being of your team.
Frequency and timings of our Workshops can be tailored to your individual requirements.
Our web platform provides access to all of our Wonderful Life Academy resources with a plethora of ideas and activities created specifically to improve Well-being.
This can be combined with regular workshops or used as as a stand-alone employee benefit.
As more and more companies invest in a wellbeing strategy it highlights that employee wellbeing is no longer a ‘nice to have’ but an area of importance to both employers and employees. Employees will gain greater job satisfaction and appreciate their employers helping them to improve their health whilst employers will benefit from improved morale, better teamwork, increased productivity, lower levels of absence and stronger engagement – a win-win situation!
