The Pressure to Change January 1st

Posted on January 15, 2021

It’s December 31st and it seems like everyone is asking you what is your New Year’s Resolution? You think to yourself I don’t have one. You feel pressure to make something up when you really don’t want to give something up or change anything.  

Resolution is defined as a firm decision to do or not to do something. It’s almost like when people make resolutions in a month’s time they have given up because what they chose to do was probably not even realistic in the first place. For example, I managed a fitness centre for many years, the gym was packed the first week of January, by mid- March it was back to the normal clients.  The reason being is people chose a resolution of going to the gym each day that was probably not realistic for them. Instead, they could have made a goal that they chose to stick to like “I will go to the gym 3x a week.”   Read More→

Some of my favourite smells this season are gingerbread, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg. Who doesn’t love building a gingerbread house even if you don’t eat it, but can look at it all month long. Or how about sipping on a hot gingerbread latte from Starbucks, Mmmmm my favourite. I ask for it half sweet to cut the sugar in half.  Put out some fresh cinnamon sticks with dried oranges and you have a healthy smell to walk into each night you come home. Read More→

Pandemic aside, we all know when the weather turns, some of us begin to hibernate indoors. It is certainly not a bad thing, especially if you are sitting beside the fire, with a book in one hand and a hot cocoa in the other.  But we all know that too many days spent in is not always the best.  Did I forget to mention that it is dark at 4:30pm too?

So how can we beat the cool rainy days and still give our body all the feel goods we need? Read More→

For ten years I worked in corporate fitness and wellness.  Many of my clients continually told me, I just don’t have time to take care of me.  Work was used as an excuse. Let’s face it, we all live full and busy lives, but we all will make time for what is most important.

How do employers make the best of Workplace Wellness programs during the pandemic?

First, the transition to working from home caused a great deal of stress. Now, returning to work is having the same impact. Whether employees continue to work from home or are forced to return to the office for any reason, they must be provided a consistent, wholesome wellness experience.

A holistic employee wellness program requires a combination of mental and physical health as its top priority. Currently, the owner of most well-being programs in organizations is HR because traditionally well-being was a culture issue. With the hybrid model of or working from home and/or the office, organizations that have made the pivot with digital wellness platforms will help combat the anxiety and stress their teams are experiencing to aid in lasting change and job satisfaction. So how then do organizations pivot and find wellness solutions that will work? Read More→
