Basic Program: Level 1 For all employees The #1 reason why people fall off health streaks is due to a lack of support. When people meet with others and see that they are not alone, and learn from others’ motivational strategies, the success rate goes through the roof. Weight Watchers has always had the #1 success rate in the industry because their weekly support meetings are mandatory. (Source: The Globe And Mail, 2006) 3 –Support Groups Offsite - Monthly Similar to a Weight Watchers meeting, committed employees opt in to receive advice, inspiration, cooking classes, and free healthy meals and juices in a group format. An email with inspiring quotes, success stories, and health motivation is delivered to employees’ inboxes. Extrinsic motivational sources (coaches, interviews, emails, etc) have been shown to improve long-term success rates. Source: American Diabetes Association (9) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],It’s proven that people change lifestyle habits once they understand the scientific knowledge behind their choices (Source: Dr Gabriel Cousens, M.D.(1)) 1 - Motivational Lunch & Learn Seminars - Quarterly An inspiring speaker comes into the office over lunch to kick-start employees’ motivation to be healthy. Topics: “Foods that Help Burn Fat”, “Reversing Diabetes Through Diet,” “Reducing Cholesterol” Results & Proof Element

Basic Program: Level 2 For employees who opt-in and want more help Once people realize that they are in control of their own health destinies through sound nutritional education, motivation and long-term success is greatly supported. Perceived autonomy was seen as a strong predictor of long-term weight loss in one study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (10) ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Participation and wellness increases substantially when there is group support for a health initiative. The competitive, fun, and camaraderie nature of team challenges yield happier and healthier employees. ,[object Object],[object Object],Guided 30-minute workouts that are intense enough to break a sweat produce endorphins and helps in the creation of dopamine and serotonin. Employees flush with these chemicals are more likely to be happy at work, less moody, more positive, and more energetic. Endorphins bind to opioid receptors, with evidence suggesting it has similar effects on the body as opium and morphine, without the negative effects of such drugs.
