IMPACT ON well-being
A Multifaceted Approach to Well-Being
HandEyeBody’s Have a Ball program creates “aha moments” that will inspire your team to participate in more of your overall corporate wellness offerings.
Physical Well-Being
Get out of your chairs, get moving, and have FUN trying something new! Hand-Eye Coordination Challenges are a great low-impact exercise that can be practiced in the office and at home. The exercises your team will learn can benefit all levels, from beginners and to experienced athletes, to develop coordination, agility, body awareness, and vision exercise.
Mental Well-Being
HandEyeBody’s “Brain Break” exercises are a wonderful way to enhance mental focus and relieve stress. It is a “moving meditation” that nurtures focus and mindfulness in a state of flow.
The movements were developed to help bridge the right and left hemispheres of your brain, and your overall brain-body connection and neuroplasticity (the ability for your brain to form new connections).
Give it a try! Experience HandEyeBody’s “Drop & Catch Challenge” to feel a sense of connection between your brain and body, and surprise yourself with an ability you never knew you had!
