In this episode, Zoe explains the importance of mental health awareness and wellbeing in the corporate workplace and how mindfulness and positive psychology can help. Zoe gives great insight into the way the human brain works and how developing a culture within the workplace can support us as a company and as individuals.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- “15% of people who have mental health issues whilst at work are caused by their workplace.”
- “If you're bringing together different organisations with different cultures, the way our mind may respond, unless it's managed exceptionally well, is defensive according to the perceived ‘threat’.
- “There is a developing field of neuroscience, which is really starting to understand our brain, how it works, what's happening when we're under different stresses.
BEST MOMENTS:
“One of the things that we're missing so deeply in our society is a sense of community. There's been a lot of studies recently by the government think tank on wellbeing and loneliness. It makes us ill - we’re social beings. We are not supposed to be these highly individualised, I can do everything by myself, everything's wonderful type of person. We are supposed to be living in a community.”
“The group that I worked with at the organisation I was just talking about, I trained mindful champions, who now run their own mindfulness sessions. I think they do one morning one lunchtime and one evening a week so that the staff can go in and just all de stress together with it.”
