Your Company’s Health
With most employers trying to get everything out of their employees that they can, and most employees feeling stressed and overworked, a corporate wellness program may very well be just what the doctor ordered. Corporate wellness program you ask? What exactly is that? Let me explain. A corporate wellness program is a daily or weekly program that incorporates activities such as breathing exercises, guided meditations and affirmations, massage, stretching and other physical activities for the sole benefit of maintaining a healthier and more productive workforce. The program can last up to sixty minutes, or be as short as fifteen to thirty depending on your company’s schedule and time constraints. Some of the benefits to the employees include less sick days, improved performance and health, and a better overall workplace attitude. The employer gains the benefits of having a more focused and healthier workforce, less absenteeism and reduced health care costs, which are probably most employer’s single biggest expense. Many insurance companies now offer assistance in finding wellness programs, and cover most of the associated costs as well as greatly reducing participating companies’ premiums. For better understanding I’ve included an excerpt of a guided meditation www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gy39vc6QnF4 that we produced which is currently being used to improve employee focus and relaxation. As companies look to get a handle on their rising health care costs, and improve employee turnover, a corporate wellness program may be an option that your company can’t afford to be without.
Until next time……yours in health and healing,
