5 Pillars of Corporate Wellbeing to Boost Your Team’s Productivity
Empower your team with small changes that deliver big results
Creating a culture of workplace wellbeing isn’t just a nice-to-have—it’s essential for supporting employee engagement, reducing stress, and boosting productivity in a sustainable way.
At Corporate Yoga Australia, we focus on five key wellbeing pillars that support the whole person—mentally, physically, and socially. Here’s how you can start integrating these pillars into your team’s daily routine, one simple step at a time.
1. Set Intentions for Workplace Wellbeing
Clarity and purpose are powerful tools for focus, resilience, and momentum.
Encourage your team to set one simple wellbeing goal. This could be as small as:
Taking a 5-minute breathing break between meetings
Leaving devices out of the bedroom to improve sleep
Writing down 3 positive moments each day in a gratitude journal
Stretching at their desk or walking during lunch
🎯 Intentions help anchor attention—and boost productivity through presence.
2. Support Physical Wellbeing with Movement
Movement reduces tension, increases energy, and enhances posture and productivity.
Here are some easy ways to move more during the workday:
Stand during phone calls or Zoom meetings
Take short walking breaks between tasks
Include desk-based stretches to release stiffness
🧘 Even small bursts of movement can re-energise a tired brain and body.
3. Cultivate Gratitude for Mental Wellbeing
Gratitude is a powerful (and free) tool to shift mindset, improve mood, and build resilience.
Encourage your team to:
Start or end the day with a gratitude practice
Keep a workplace gratitude jar
Acknowledge small wins in meetings or emails
💡 A grateful team is a more motivated, connected, and mentally healthy team.
4. Encourage Mindful Moments to Reduce Stress
Mindfulness helps employees slow down, regulate emotions, and stay focused—especially in high-pressure environments.
Try This: Tea Drinking Meditation
Sip slowly
Breathe deeply
Engage all five senses
Notice the warmth, aroma, and taste
🫖 Bonus idea: Book a workplace mindfulness session and we’ll gift each team member a curated tea and meditation through our partners at Inspirational Tea Co.
5. Strengthen Social Connections at Work
Social wellbeing supports trust, collaboration, and a positive work culture—especially important in hybrid or remote environments.
Here are a few ways to build connection:
Organise walking meetings
Offer regular desk stretch sessions or movement breaks
Launch a workplace wellbeing challenge or kindness initiative
👥 Connection fuels collaboration—and makes work more enjoyable.
