EmbodyFlow is on a mission to accelerate business as a force for good. Using evidence-based approaches including embodied movement, conscious breath practices, and tools for optimising mental performance and communication, we help the people in your organisation reach their maximum potential.

Our primary interest is in understanding how we can help your business navigate an increasingly complex, unpredictable and fast-changing world. Some of the key questions that frame our approach are:

• What challenges do your employees have that are limiting performance?
• What other tools do your employees need to collaborate more effectively?
• How well do the leaders in your organisation embody your values and vision?
• How might you create a culture that allows your people to thrive even more?

The tools we use are based upon the latest scientific research across fields of applied neuroscience and psychology, functional anatomy and physiology, and executive coaching. These tools facilitate demonstrable improvements in performance, collaboration and culture.

Performance

• Lower stress and build resilience
• Sustain energy levels and increase productivity
• Be more engaged in your company vision and mission
• Access states of flow, increasing creativity and innovation
• Make effective decisions based on real-time information

Collaboration

• Communicate authentically to build strong relationships
• Harness the power of diversity to create coherent teams
• Use social intelligence to build positive connections and networks

Culture

• Develop organisational culture in alignment with your values and vision
• Effect and embrace change

We deliver well-being and culture change programmes in a format that suits your organisation including workshops, webinars, classes, retreats, ongoing support, consultancy, and coaching. Our four-step approach is:

1. Assessment and tailoring – We will assess the specific needs of your organisation and put together a bespoke programme to meet your goals.

2. Delivering the programme – The core elements of work include:

Embodied movement: giving people access to increased awareness of their embodied experience to both remain physically well and to understand the body’s role in managing stress, emotional regulation and energy levels.

Mind mastery: teaching people how to experientially understand mind and mental process to create optimal states of wellbeing and peak performance.

Conscious breath: utilising the breath to release stress, deepen emotional intelligence and access states of creative flow. 

Relational intelligence: using coaching and communication tools to enable skilful intra- and inter-relationships resulting in high performance teams and an effective organisation.

3. Embedding the change – We ensure the skills and tools we share are integrated into how individuals and teams work day-to-day in your organisation, creating a lasting change in culture.

4. Measuring impact – We will demonstrate the impact of our programmes against your identified goals, organisational Key Performance Indicators, and our own measures.
