Empowered Corporate Wellness

Feel Good FriYAY! Hi I’m Kristie , your Corporate Wellness Cultivator! If you already know me, you know I’m a caffeine fanatic! And I am not ashamed!. As I sat on the balcony this morning, sipping my Americana , I thought about the controversy surrounding coffee. I figured I should share a FUN FRIDAY FACT with you! . . .... It is not the coffee bean that is our enemy my friends! It is the added sugar & cream some of us choose to include! Your basic creamer is 35cals(mainly fats), your sugar packet about 20cals, so a total of ~55cals added per coffee per day! Which can add up quickly, especially for those individuals working desk jobs who desperately need the caffeine consistently throughout their 8 hr day to stay awake while staring deeply into their computer screens! Let’s just say 2 coffees a day, bringing us to 110cals X 7 days a week = 770cals a week. That is the equivalent amount of calories burnt off in ~2 intense HIIT workouts or a ~12km run (differs for each individual)... See where I’m going with this? Now 3500cals = 1 LB, so what I’m attempting to share is that you do not need to incorporate gruelling hours of exercise or take part in deprivation dieting to release a few unwanted lbs...With small everyday changes, we can inevitably see BIG changes! AND most importantly... Us coffee fanatics can sip guilt free... . . . #coworkercoffeebreak #workplacewellness #coffeetime See more

To optimize your potential, you should always strive towards being consistent with consistency! Goal setting & Dedication is what drives you but in the end it's actually dedication to consistency that gets us to where we want to be! . . . If you say you are going to do something, do it. If you say you are going to be somewhere, be there. If you agree to an exercise regime, commit. If you initiate a new food plan, follow through long enough to see change. .... . . In my experience, consistency is a MUST as you grow & seek new health goals or even as you buildout your own business or move up up in your career. . . . The 3 WHYs: . . 1Consistency allows for measurement. . . Until you have tried something new for a period of time and consistently, you can't decide if it is working or not. . . 2Consistency creates accountability. . . The fact that there is a set date, time or person to hold you accountable to progress is often the game changer that moves an initiative along to a successful end. But without a consistent pace, the end generally doesn't come out successful. . . 3Consistency establishes your overall achievement & reputation. . . Many efforts fail before even getting to the finish line. Not because the plan was flawed or the goals weren't clear. The problem is often that the person simply did not stay the course to achieve the objective. . . . Consistency is KING. . . . #empoweredcwp #workplacewellness #consistencyisking #routine See more

Our health often takes a backseat to our work. Many of us spend long hours at our desks, and our weight loss goals go right out the window! Stress & depression at work are a couple of the other issues that also take a toll on our mental and emotional state while being at work. Mr.Cortisol is a hormone released by your adrenal glands during a stressful situation. He also plays a large part in the efficiency of our metabolism in that he metabolizes glucose! When under consta...nt stress at the office it can cause our cortisol levels to go out of whack creating all sorts of issues in the body and reducing our ability to metabolize, in turn storing more and burning less! Here are 2 easy tips to reduce stress & encourage weight loss in the office. 1. Take 5 minutes to yourself. Close your eyes & focus only on your breathing. Taking just a few minutes to allow your brain to relax can help clear & quite your mind, giving you a sense of refreshment! 2. Take 5 minutes to MOVE! Use your desk as a platform for push ups or push your chair out of the way and rock a set of squats or lunges! Exercise encourages the production of happy hormones & secretion of endorphins. Miss. Endorphins will take place of cortisol & reduce stress levels & promote efficient metabolizing, just like that! #reducestress #deskworkouts #meditation

Testimonial from DR.Rai (Owner of Westside Dental Centre) I have been training with Kristie since 2015. I cannot say enough about what a inspiration Kristie has been. She has been there to support and encourage me to push my personal limitations. Working in the dental industry there is a huge physical strain on the body and I have never felt better than I have been training with Kristie the last 4 years.... Knowing what a difference Kristie has been able to make I was so excited to introduce a program (and Kristie) to my staff. The staff and I dedicated ourselves in following recommendations and challenges set by Kristie that were able to benefit us and helped bring the team closer together overall. The program helped not only with how they felt physically but mentally as well. Most of the staff continue with the program design till this day. This all has encouraged a better workflow and an increase in overall productivity. I would highly recommend Kristie and her health and wellness programs! #empoweredcorporatewellnest #testimonialtime #westsidedentalcare

This is one of my favourites for fall for sure! Its even better cold so its great to double up the recipe and make for meal prep, lunch and left overs! INGREDIENTS... 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 pound chicken breast, diced boneless, skinless 1 teaspoon salt divided 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 8 slices thick-cut bacon chopped 3 cups broccoli florets 1 medium sweet potato peeled and diced into 1/2 inch pieces 1 medium white onion chopped 2 granny smith apples cored, and diced 2 cloves of garlic minced 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 cup chicken stock divided INSTRUCTIONS Heat the olive oil in a large, nonstick pan over medium high heat, until hot and shimmering. Add the diced chicken, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper. Cook until lightly brown and cooked through. Transfer chicken to a plated lined with paper towels. Reduce the pan heat to medium low. Add chopped bacon and cook until crisp and brown. Reserve 1 1/2 tablespoons of bacon fat. Transfer bacon to the plate that the chicken is on using a slotted spoon. Increase the heat back to medium high. Add broccoli, sweet potato, onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until the vegetables are crisp-tender and the onion is translucent, stirring occasionally. Stir in the apples, garlic, thyme, and cinnamon. Cook 1 minute, then pour in 1/2 cup of the chicken stock. Bring to a boil and cook until the stock has evaporated. Add the chicken and remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock. Cooked until heated through. Then add the bacon and serve warm.
