Today is national RUOK? day.

People in the workplace are being encouraged to ask those around them if things are ok and to open up around the water cooler. Turns out, these simple conversations that may seem a little awkward, may really be necessary.

Recent research tells us that in 2010, 22% of corporate health claims in Australian were related to mental health and stress. People are taking sick days in an effort to grab some down time and regroup.

Articles in the paper just this week present us as being fat, sad and addicted.

Personal and work related stress is taking its toll and we are flying high on caffeine, sugar and energy drinks to get us through.
Mental health is now just as high on the radar as raised blood glucose or obesity, yet isn’t spoken about and is often judged as being something to snap out of.

At Cultivate we believe in promoting Resilience and a wholistic approach to reducing stress and increasing wellbeing in the workplace.
