Bouncebackability
It’s not about how fast you run, or how high you jump, but how well you bounce
I’m a runner, and I have learned that longevity in running means having easy runs as well as hard ones, and enough rest and recovery days too.
Longevity in our working lives is about having a Work Ethic paced by a Rest Ethic. Resilience is how you recharge, not how you endure.
Switching off is hard. Technology has enabled work to live in our pockets. We are ‘always on’ – never fully switching off from work. No time for recovery.
The WHO has included burnout in its international classification of diseases. “Burn-out is a syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.”
How can we bend but not break?
In Alignment - restoring balance in mind and body
Our latest approach to Resilience and Balance is : In Alignment – a workshop in restoring balance in the mind and body through :
● Pilates in practise
● Toolkit to develop a Resilient mindset
● 4 step programme to successful Habit forming
This workshop is uniquely designed to restore balance in the body and mind through interweaving Pilates principles and movements with thought – provoking Talking Points. We look at how our current way of living and working is out of balance; how longevity means we are living longer, but not healthier; how strengthening mind body connection is a truly resilient approach.
Through movement and discussion we will explore :
● how we can restore balance mentally and physically
● building resilient practises into our minds and
bodies.
This can be a :
- Stand alone 3 hour workshop
