Yoga@Work

The workplace can be a stressful environment - simple tasks seem to escalate into Wagnerian operas and the working hours seem to go on. And on. And on. And on. Would you or your workplace be looking for ways to reduce stress and improve staff well-being?

Yoga benefits us by stretching our minds through stretching our bodies. This allows us to run the ‘now’ instead of the ‘now’ running us. Increase workplace health and well-being regularly in a non-competitive fun way!

Practising since 1997, Carey teaches yoga that provides access for all ages, body types and fitness level. Make up a class of staff (physically at your premises) or online via Zoom.

Choose your starting positions:
Suitable for all body types and fitness level
-- Light: 30mins program, done at your place, focuses on poses useful for the time-short and desk-bound
-- Eager: 60mins program, done at your place or Online. Utilises whole body focus without props
-- Keen: 90mins program, done before or after work. Utilises whole body with props for ease of access

General considerations:
-- Any exercise is best not done immediately after eating. With yoga, we recommend 3 hours after a heavy meal or 2 hours after a light meal. (Any exercise diverts the body's attention away from digestion.)
-- It is useful to have mats for yoga. The mats allow us to reference our bodies in a defined space that stays constant for every class. The mats will be supplied complimentary for the trial class, however it will be useful long term for the Light and Eager participants to provide their own mats. Participants of the Keen option will have all props supplied.
-- An Eager class would benefit from having a clear space that allows about 1.5m² for each person. If needing to make-ready a space, allow an extra 10 mins either side of class time for set down and set up of the space.

Employer contribution:
It is increasingly common for employers to embrace complementary approaches to maximise long term staff wellbeing and workplace health. Depending on the employer's individual capacity, they are able to co-subsidise classes through a number of commitment levels:
-- Time only (allow 30-60mins of usual work time for the yoga class to take place, for example a workplace that usually starts at 8.30am might commence yoga at 8.00am to finish at 9.00am, or a workplace that usually finishes at 5.30pm might commence yoga at 4.30pm to finish at 5.30pm)
-- Money only (class occurs outside of work hours but the employer contributes to the fees)
-- Workplace only (class occurs outside of work hours but the employer provides facilities)
-- Props only (class occurs outside of work hours but the employer contributes to the cost of the props)
-- Time and money (blend of above four approaches).

Program Particulars
Venues: Your workplace will need to have a peaceful, clean, well-ventilated space to allow approx 1.5m² per person and clear access to at least one wall. Or go natural and find a park (weather permitting).
Dates: Have a trial session then commit for discount to:
• Weekly x 5 weeks
• Weekly x 10 weeks.
Investment: price tailored to your needs, minimum of 5 people for workplace class, or come individually to existing class (contact for more details).

Imagine struggling with reading or spelling but not having anyone at home to help you, or feeling left out because you don’t have the stationery in your school bag that all your school friends have. This is the unjust reality for many children from disadvantaged families in Australia – and for many, this can mean the difference between learning or falling behind.

Yet, we are interdependent. Nowhere is learning to live with difference more important than religion. Too often, religion is misused as an instrument for division and injustice, betraying core ideals and teachings that lie at the heart of each of the world’s great traditions. At the same time, religious and spiritual traditions shape the lives of billions in wise and wonderful ways.
