The Problem

  • Research shows that the overall health and well-being of our workforce is being significantly affected by constant stress, burnout and hectic schedules.

  • Stress costs US businesses an estimated $300 billion annually, according to the World Health Organization, with sleep deprivation adding another $63 billion a year in loss productivity.

  • Studies have shown that businesses spend 200% to 300% more on indirect health care in the form of sick days and lower productivity, than they do on direct health care payments.

  • 69% of employs report that work is a significant source of stress and 41% say they are typically tense and stressed out during the workday.

  • One third of our US employees are chronically overworked.  Furthermore 20% of employees reporting high overworked levels say they make a lot of mistakes at work compared to those who experienced low overworked levels.

  • 52% of employs indicate that job demands interfere with family or home responsibilities, while 43% say that home and family responsibilities interfere with job performance.

  • 83% of employees report going to work even while sick, due to heavy workloads and need to conserve time off to meet family needs.

The Personalized Wellness Plan at the Center for Integrative Healing and Wellness

Your high-stress career, personal finances, home life, family matters, and health all compete for your time and energy. Trying to juggle all these responsibilities can leave you feeling stressed, tired, sick, and with little time to recharge and reboot.

Our executive wellness & fitness program works with your current lifestyle and available time to build a fitness and wellness regimen that is realistic to you. This includes nutrition and exercise regimens while traveling, effective workouts to do in half the time, and staying fit with minimal access to gyms or personal equipment.  You’ll learn how to eat healthy on-the-go, and what foods will help increase your energy and improve your mental and physical performance.

The retreat also covers executive wellness, examining behavioral health to combat the negative health effects of a stressful lifestyle. Stress management, self-care, and work/life balance are just a few of the mental wellness aspects we explore.

Our multi-disciplinary approach to executive health considers all the aspects of health that may be impacting your ability to feel balanced, motivated, focused and productive.
