Work-related stress and mental illness account for over half of work absences and costs British businesses an estimated £26 billion per year.

Breathwork is a highly effective tool to manage stress, as scientific studies have shown that it can reduce cortisol, the stress hormone, by up to 20% after just one session and by up to 50% with repeated practice.

A recent YouGov poll revealed that the majority of people in the UK want health and wellbeing prioritised over economic growth during the corona virus crisis and six in ten would still want the government to pursue health and wellbeing ahead of growth after the pandemic has subsided.

Health and wellbeing are here to stay and as an employer your best asset is a happy, healthy, strong and resilient workforce.

Teams will learn:

  • breath awareness - how changing your breath can change the way you think and feel

  • tools to reduce stress and manage anxiety through breath

  • how to use the breath to be alert, focused and ready for anything

  • the science behind the breath

The impact of the sessions has been immediate. Breathways is making a real difference to our staff wellbeing.
