Healthy Teams

Our response to the increasing stress level: the pit stop health for teams

In this reality-tested pit stop, within two days, the participants gain the know-how, skills and tools to improve their own health, physical and mental fitness, handling of stress and their personal work-life-balance in every-day life at work.
We look at tools that help to improve one's own health, physical and mental strength, the handling of stress and the personal work-life-balance in everyday-life at work. This is carried out alternately by medical and sport-science trainer input and with many practical exercises.
How can I harmonize professional challenges with my partner and family? Where and how can I best regain energy? How do I recognize burnout and overstrain in me, my employees or my clients? What does it mean to set and respect limits?

Backgrounds:
Stressors and personal stress enhancers: Stress is created in the brain and is actually quite healthy – we need it. But when the body is constantly put on stand-by due to the discrepancy of demands and competence, it gets sick. In this training, the participants learn what their stress factors are and how these stressors influence the body and the psyche. By means of the SOR-model they also realize which impact the stressors have on the lifestyle, for example unhealthy food or declining motivation to do sports. Together, we plan and begin the way out of the stress trap. Resilience – the personal resistance: the participants find their own psychic resistance via the resilience–model. They get to know methods that can be easily and quickly integrated in everyday life.


Nutrition as basis for our health:
A bad diet makes us physically and psychically sick. Here, the participants get an overview about what exactly is healthy food and how the nutrient supply influences the body. Eating-type and stress: afterwards they know, which eating-type they are and can actively intervene in moments of stress.
Learning-by-doing in the team: cooking together increases the awareness of a healthy way to prepare food and shows that the expenditure of a healthy diet is actually feasible.
This part is competed by advice about eating at work.

Coping with stress by physical activity:
Nowadays, the influence of physical activity on the immune system is undisputed. Sports and physical activity also positively influence the metabolism of the body. But which kind of sports is the right one and how often should one do sports?
This part deals with the positive effects in detail. Besides the theoretical input, the participants also experience the effects of physical activity directly on their own bodies in pracitcal units. It is taken care that every participant can learn something from that, no matter what his or her level of fitness may be.
Assessment and training plan: Status assessments of the own physical state as well as a first short training plan complete this part.
