Synergy Health workshops are designed to encourage positive behaviour changes. Each workshop results in employees learning personalised and practical strategies to enhance their performance and overall quality of life.
RE:SET
Building Personal Resilience
In today’s demanding environment, employees can often find themselves being pulled in many different directions – both at home and at work. This can result in employees developing stress symptoms and adopting behaviours that only further exacerbate these symptoms over time.
Even your best performers can find themselves with poor energy levels, negative habitual thinking patterns and becoming more disengaged by the day.
Experiencing these symptoms only makes it more challenging to sustain high levels of performance – no matter how determined your employees are!
The ‘re:set’ programme gives participants the opportunity to learn easy and practical steps on how to effectively manage stress and build resilience to promote performance in all areas of their life.
Participants will
- Enhance their understanding of the nature of stress
- Understand how they can take a more proactive role in managing stress
- Identify their early indicators of stress
- Understand why some stress management strategies do not work for everyone
- Identify personalised and practical strategies to enhance their personal resilience
RE:WORK
Charging Through Change
We are now in an environment where we face constant change both inside and outside of the workplace. Despite the frequency with which we encounter change, many people can experience negative symptoms associated with the change process including dis-engagement and cynicism.
These symptoms can negatively impact your employee’s performance and those working around them. This can compromise the overall change process within your workplace.
The ‘re:work’ programme provides participants with a practical understanding on how they can proactively enhance their ability to cope with change. Rather than experiencing negative symptoms, your employees will develop the skills to view change as an opportunity to enhance their levels of satisfaction and engagement.
Participants will
- Enhance their understanding of common characteristics associated with change
- Understand how they can take a more proactive role in managing the change process
- Identify the impact of their habitual thinking patterns on their ability to cope with change
RE:CONNECT
Being Present, Ignoring The Noise
Today our lives are busier than ever. We can often find ourselves feeling overwhelmed with information overload as our ever growing ‘to do’ list increases both inside and outside of the workplace. The opportunity for personal time for revitalising activities can feel harder and harder to achieve.
This, coupled with the tendency to overly focus on past and future events, can result in employees being vulnerable to self-inflicted attention deficit disorder, exhaustion, lack of focus, unhelpful thought patterns, increased stress and a susceptibility to burnout.
The ‘re:connect’ programme provides participants with effective strategies to be more present and more conscious of life as it happens. By cultivating the art of being more mindful, it will help participants achieve their goals and enjoy life more.
Participants will
- Learn how to recognise unhealthy thinking patterns and the practical strategies to eliminate these
- Understand how to be more ‘present’ and focus on the tasks at hand
- Understand how to strategically ‘disengage’ to enhance productivity
- Understand the benefits of being grateful
Presentation Topics
The following presentations are typically delivered in 1–2 hour sessions. They are high impact presentations, designed to provide attendees with increased knowledge and understanding of the topic and to assist them in the identification of potential changes to enhance wellbeing.
10 Healthy Habits
The ‘10 Healthy Habits’ are the foundation for all Synergy Health’s programs. These habits have stood the test of time and are simple to follow. The 10 habits include the importance of nutrition, activity, sleep, exposure to sunlight as well as the importance of fulfilling our key values and being aware of their influence on our overall wellbeing. This presentation will provide your employees with simple and practical suggestions on how they can implement even small changes towards our Healthy Habits that, over time, can result in noticeable improvements in their health and wellbeing.
A better you
The Art of Behaviour Change -In the outcome focused world we live in, many of us find ourselves setting goals to ‘be better’. Without understanding the art of behaviour change, too often we set ourselves up for failure. This workshop will teach participants why typical goal setting strategies can fail and offers more practical strategies to help increase their motivation, happiness, engagement and overall performance both inside and outside the workplace.
Manage your thinking
How frequently do your employees have unhealthy thoughts that will be negatively influencing their ability to cope with stress, productivity and their ability to build great relationships? This presentation provides your employees with an insight into the nature of their thinking patterns and assess the impact they are having on work performance and their overall quality of life. It will also provide employees with a practical framework to change these if they are having a negative influence.
Nourishing the body
Eating, whole, natural foods and focusing on counting nutrients over calories is the simplest way to help your employee’s fuel their bodies’ and brains and optimise their energy, focus, mental and physical health. While fad diets come and go, eating real food and reducing your fake processed food will always stand the test of time and science! This presentation cuts through the confusion and provides employees with practical, simple steps to eating more nourishing, real food.
Energise
Traditionally workplaces have championed time-management and multi-tasking as the best ways to optimise productivity, neglecting the importance of ‘energy management’. The ‘Energise’ presentation provides your employees with a better understanding of natural energy fluctuations and how to use this understanding to maximise their productivity and performance, both inside and outside of the workplace.
That gut feeling
Over the last decade, research has confirmed our gut health is central to how we think, move, eat, sleep and feel and is often referred to as our ‘second brain’. In this presentation, employees learn ten tips for optimising their gut health to improve their energy levels, brain power, metabolism, appetite, mood or sleep. They also learn how to recognise the signs and symptoms that their gut health may be compromised.
Sweet enough
Sugar is receiving constant media attention with a growing body of research highlighting the impact of added sugar on weight gain, raising cholesterol, blood pressure and increased risk of Type 2 diabetes. In this presentation, employees learn to identify the different types of sugar and their impact on the body. As well as practical tips to reduce sugar cravings and reducing their intake of added sugars.
Sleep smarter
The quality of our sleep affects our physical, emotional and psychological wellbeing. A single bad night’s sleep has been shown to disrupt our metabolic control, make us more likely to make poor food choices and increase our levels of stress and anxiety. The ‘Sleep Smarter’ presentation encourages employees to identify practical strategies to optimise their sleeping habits, which will assist in improving energy and enthusiasm.
