Globeducate Wellbeing Programme: Mind, Body and Spirit
We want everyone in our organisation to feel as healthy, fulfilled and inspired as possible and, following a fantastic uptake during Phase 1 of our Globeducate Wellbeing Programme, and some very positive feedback, we are delighted to share with you the choices available for you in our second phase.
We believe this wide choice of courses will create opportunities to relax, to feel invigorated, to learn a new skill, build confidence and encourage a sense of community across our teams in different countries. Some courses are interactive, others only involve you joining and watching and listening.
We will review the content of this programme at the end of each course and value your feedback. We hope you find something you enjoy from the selection below..
Zumba
This hour-long ´Zumba Toning´ class combines the flavour and energy of a regular Zumba class with a safe, effective, total body toning workout. The class includes a warm up, standing sculpt, Zumba toning routines using light hand weights, followed by floor exercises on the mat and finishing with a full stretch. Using light hand weights for added resistance and a floor mat we target individual muscle groups as well as providing a fun cardiovascular workout.
Yoga
Beginners´ Hatha Yoga with Mariana in Marbella: Improve your strength, flexibility and balance with regular practice of Hatha yoga. This is a form of yoga, meaning “discipline of force” in Sanskrit, that involves holding specific body postures, called asanas, to work on muscle strength and to connect your mind and body. Research has shown that it has been linked to mental and physical health benefits such as stress management and stronger core muscles. Core muscles are important for overall body function and strengthening these can help prevent lower back pain, improve your balance, and make you less likely to sustain muscle injuries. Great for those who can´t do higher intensity exercises such as running or weight lifting, you´ll learn body postures, breathing techniques and relaxation and meditation. Hatha Yoga has also been found to improve depression symptoms because it acts on the neurotransmitters in our brain, in a similar way to antidepressants.
Mindful-Nature connection course
Nature-based mindfulness is perfect for anyone longing for a deeper connection to nature and to their own natural selves. It's also ideal for anyone feeling the negative effects of disconnection and feeling overwhelmed with stress, tension and anxiety. Both mindfulness and nature interactions are ancient practices that were known for their beneficial health and wellbeing effects. Mindful-Nature Connection is inherently calming and restorative and can also promote a more profound reconnection with ourselves and others and a beneficial relationship with the environment. You will learn practical exercises and meditations that creates new awareness, aligns your body and mind, provides new options in times of stress and connects you to the natural world more effortlessly.
Personal Mastery
Personal Mastery is both a discipline and a journey. Understand the concept of mastering yourself and your work environment, learning the key principles and practices for tapping into your full potential, developing positive attitudes and using personal power and life coaching techniques to deliver and maintain excellence and success. Personal Mastery requires us to understand, motivate and manage ourselves and people often within situations of conflict and interpersonal differences.
