Employee wellbeing is becoming one of the greatest predictors of business success today.
- According to a 2016 study conducted by the Conference Board of Canada, stress, anxiety and depression cost Canadian Companies more than $50 Billion/year and obesity costs 1.3 billion/year.
- According to a 2017 IPSOS poll 500,000 Canadians miss work every year due to mental health issues (1 in 4 employees).
- Experts predict if something does not change, the costs for corporations will escalate to $2.5 Trillion over the next 30 years.
Over the last 15 years there’s been a flurry of clinical research demonstrating the effectiveness of mindfulness practices to help individuals significantly:
- regulate blood/glucose levels and improve cardiovascular and brain functioning
