Mental Health Matters: How Adjunct Therapeutic Tools Fuel a Healthier Workplace
"The body follows the mind, so in your mind's eye you have to see all ten toes touching the ground." Steve Ilg during downward facing dog in his HP Yoga Video - circa 2001.
2001 when the idea of the body and mind being intertwined was only beginning to make it into mainstream conversation.
Now? We not only know that to be true, but we also know that the reverse is true. The mind also follows the body.
That's why things like undetected food sensitivities and poor gut health can be underlying contributors to chronic anxiety and depression.
And things like unresolved trauma can lead to pain, and inability to release weight.
THIS is why holistic CORPORATE WELLNESS PROGRAMS address BOTH.
When employees are supported by their corporate wellness program to:
🥬 Eat clean, healthy, nourishing foods
🏃♀️Move their bodies daily
🧘♀️Practice Mindfulness and Meditation
🧘🏻 Learn how to manage emotion with breath work
❤️ They feel better
💰They experience fewer migraines
💰Take fewer mental health leaves
💰Take time to be kinder to their coworkers
But when a company really wants to drive it all home?
They include Mental Health and Communication training in addition to their wellness offerings. Wow!
This is why I was SO EXCITED to meet Azizi Marshall, Creative Arts Psychotherapist, and her team at The Center for Creative Arts Therapy.
Finally, a mental health program designed specifically for the workplace that takes its mission seriously enough to go into the workplace and be physically present with the associates.
Just like ProMotion Corporate Wellness does with Wellness Programming!
People need PEOPLE...not another app.
Speaking of EXCITED?
ProMotion Corporate Wellness has sponsored the upcoming STIGMA FREE MENTAL HEALTH SUMMIT in beautiful Chicago, IL July 21, 22, and 23—because Mental Health and Physical Health in the Workplace Matter.
