Wellbeing Workshop: Movement Matters

In today’s fast-paced, sedentary work environment, supporting employee well-being requires more than just policies and perks; it calls for a deeper connection, embodiment, and practical strategies that help people feel better in their bodies while working.

Join us for this energising, experiential session where Gillian Hipp, Movement Psychotherapist, Somatic Coach and well-being PhD researcher, shares insights from her Move into Balance Challenge — a workplace-ready, evidence-informed initiative designed to combat sedentary stress and enhance creativity, focus, and resilience through gentle, accessible daily movement.

Blending research, reflection, and embodied practice, this workshop will:

• Highlight the connection between movement and mental well-being
• Offer a practical movement experience from the Move into Balance Challenge
• Explore how time to recuperate during the working day impacts well-being
• Inspire HR professionals to embed embodied well-being into everyday working life
  
  

This is an opportunity to reconnect with your own sense of balance, vitality, and clarity, and discover an innovative model you can bring to your teams.

Who is it for?
CIPD members and HR professionals interested in holistic, sustainable approaches to well-being for themselves and their organisations, particularly those working with remote, hybrid or desk-based teams.
