With Global Wellness Day right around the corner on Saturday, June 8th, people all over the world are taking a moment to recognize the importance of investing in their health and wellbeing. Not only does wellness play an important role in Hawkins International’s client roster, with many hotels and resorts incorporating wellness programming into their guest experiences, the but it’s also deeply ingrained in our company culture. Since it’s proven that wellness programs improve office productivity, our very own Wellness Committee recently hosted a “Week of Wellness” to promote healthy living in the workplace. Keep reading for an inside look into the week’s itinerary, and be sure to follow us on Instagram for a behind-the-scenes perspective on life at Hawkins!
Start your day the right way
The team was treated to a healthy breakfast bar which included a DIY Avocado Toast bar with plenty of organic toppings! Everyone took an hour out of their day to sit, decompress, and enjoy a delicious meal together.
Glow-Up Your Coffee
The office kitchen was upgraded with a “Glow-Up Your Coffee Bar” station that included collagen, Adaptogens, CBD oil, and other goodies to improve mental clarity and productivity. Some of the featured ingredients included Ashwagandha (reduces stress and anxiety) and Lion’s Mane (improves energy and mental focus). Team members then crafted their own, personalized cup of joe to kick-start the day.
Glow-Up Your Skin
The office was decked out with a “Glow Skin Bar” that featured a variety of serums, facial mists, eye creams, and moisturizers for the ultimate skincare pick me up. Even now that wellness week has ended, this bar is still a popular spot for a mid-afternoon spritz!
Loosen the Knots
Team members received in-office massages, courtesy of Exuberancy, an on-site health and wellness company. Massages were held in the company’s “zen den”, otherwise known as the Salade Room because of its green walls, and members of team Hawkins were treated to ten-minute sessions.
Meditate in Madison Square Park
Midway through the week, the team strolled to Madison Square Park for an outdoor meditation session hosted by Account Supervisor Nathalie Herrera.
Dance it out!
In partnership with New York Health & Racquet Club, the team participated in an exclusive dance class to close out the week with a bang. Fitness Pro Ebonny Fowler whipped the team into shape in an intensely fun workout at NYHRC.
