Corporate Programs
Wellness and Productivity
The single biggest factor to optimizing productivity in the workplace is Stress.
When we are stressed, our ability to think creatively is compromised and our ability to make good strategic decisions is clouded. We are not as efficient in our work, our motivation declines and our relationships with colleagues can become strained all too very easily.
Stress is costing companies many billions in profit a year. One of the reasons for this is that under stress, the most highly evolved part of our brain, the prefrontal cortex becomes inhibited, which leads to the dampening of our cognitive, creative and executive functions. Meanwhile, under stress our primitive R complex of the brain becomes more active. We become far more reactive, emotional and defensive.
A major study has shown than under stress workers rate their performance as a mere 3.7 out of 10, as they have only 49 effective hours per month. When people are feeling balanced, their performance raises to 8.5 out of 10, and their effective hours rocket by 291%.

The Inspired Workplace Program
Choose from a wide range of modalities, specially designed to increase wellbeing and productivity. In order to make real and fundamental changes in the very paradigm of our being, we must attend to the source of the issue- the nervous system. These simple exercises work at a very deep level to fundamentally change the way we breathe, move and adapt to our environments.

The Feldenkrais Method
This method reorganizes connections between the brain and body and so improves body movement and psychological state by repairing and recalibrating the nervous system.2
Pilates
Pilates is a system created to strengthen the body and help us improve balance, tone and postural alignment.3
Dance and Movement
It is proven that dance increases our serotonin levels, relaxes our body and uplifts our spirits. Recent research now demonstrates that it also balances the communication between the hemispheres of the brain.4
Creativity Workshops
Artists have long known that play and brain storming is a key to innovation and transformation. We learn from these creative disciplines to create a fun program that expands your perception and helps you work from motivation and joy.5
Nutrition and Diet
Workshops and advice on eating healthier throughout the work day, so you can be more productive and sustain energy levels and focus.6
Metamorphosis
Metamorphosis is a profound and fundamental self-healing treatment that allows us to release deep unconscious blocks, so that we can live fulfilled joyful lives of ease, balance and creation. Ultimately, metamorphosis allows us to live in the moment.7
Kundalini Yoga
The fastest growing yoga on the planet enables quick, monumental changes in health and wellbeing through yoga and meditations.8
Qigong
Qigong is a holistic system of coordinated body-posture, movement, breathing, and meditation used for the purposes of health, spirituality, and martial arts training.9
Meditation
Mediation and mindfulness techniques help us to stay calm and focused in the pressure of highly demanding work environments and are essential tools for today’s corporate workplace.10
Breath workshops
Dealing with and recognising stress in the moment is the key to achieving success. Breath work allows us the chance to slow down and anchor ourselves in the body, so that we gain awareness, perspective and resilience.11
Music and Sound Therapies
Vibrational therapies work on subtle levels but have deep long lasting results. Our hearing is the most internal sense. Music and sound has been proven to greatly alter our mood and physical wellbeing.12
1 to 1 Coaching
A mentor is an objective voice that can often help us move towards an easier path to our precious goals. Having a well intentioned expert to guide us through our most stress-filled challenges may be the final key to achieving that next level of success."Calm mind brings inner strength and self- confidence,
so that’s very important for good health"

Major Companies
that benefit from meditation in the workplace
The approach these big companies are taking isn’t hard to implement. Whether you own a small business or work for a corporate giant, it’s the ideal time to introduce this age-old practice as part of the new way of balancing work and life.
Steve Jobs took a practice that worked for him and shared it with Apple’s corporate culture. He was considered a pioneer of “mind technology” when he introduced Zen mindfulness meditation to the corporate structure at Apple. Workers have access to a meditation room, 30-minute daily meditation breaks, and on-site yoga and meditation classes, which were all part of a process that Steve used to reduce his own stress, gain more clarity, and enhance his creativity.
Google was lucky enough to have one of their original software developers spearhead a program at Google that began in 2007 called, “Search Inside Yourself.” Google offers an on-site meditation space and meditation courses, believing that meditation can help improve not only employee mental health and well-being, but the company’s bottom line as well
Yahoo offers meditation rooms and free meditation classes for employees to benefit from and reduce stress while at work. It seems that tech companies like Yahoo are the early adopters of the mindful meditation at work culture with magazines like Fast Company touting meditation as a “must-do” to get hired.
Nike employs a mindfulness and meditation coach who recently led a workshop for a team of Nike employees. This team consisted of about 13 innovators who perform and execute significant duties for Nike—most of them are focused on leading the global brand in new directions. Mindful leadership events like this have become a benefit of working for the large sports brand.
HBO has a new hit show Enlightened and it looks like some of that enlightenment has rubbed off on their headquarters. The company boasts a gym, yoga classes, and weekly meditations. They may produce television, but they don’t encourage a culture of couch potatoes.
When other companies were installing gyms, P&G CEO A.G. Lafley was starting a meditation instruction program and installing meditation spaces in P&G’s corporate buildings. He’s quoted as saying, “You cannot out-work a problem, you have to out-meditation it.”
