Nervous System Regulation in the Workplace
Empowering employees with somatic knowledge can transform the way they work, collaborate, and innovate. Somatic knowledge can be unleashed in the workplace, fostering a culture of heightened self-awareness and enhanced performance. The key is to create an environment where somatic knowledge is valued and where employees feel empowered to explore and utilize their body's wisdom in their work.
Leaders play a crucial role in the cultivation of somatic knowledge within their teams. By embodying these practices themselves and advocating for a culture that values bodily awareness, leaders can set a precedent for the rest of the organization. It's about more than just workshops and activities; it's about creating a workplace environment that supports the somatic journey of every employee, making it an integral part of the organizational ethos.
Imagine a workplace where, before brainstorming sessions, employees take a moment to ground themselves, tuning into their bodily sensations and emotions. This practice opens up channels of creativity, as individuals are more attuned to their intuitive thoughts and feelings. It's about creating a space where somatic intelligence can flourish alongside cognitive abilities, leading to innovative solutions and ideas that are both intellectually and emotionally intelligent.
In an era where burnout is rampant, incorporating somatic practices into the daily routine can offer a buffer against stress. Simple techniques like mindful breathing or body scans can help employees manage anxiety and maintain a calm, clear mindset even in high-pressure situations. Over time, these practices build resilience, enabling individuals to bounce back from setbacks more effectively and to maintain balance amidst chaos.
Trauma in the Workplace
Finally, if your employees work in an environment that is highly stressful and potentially traumatic, a deeper understanding of how trauma occurs and how to prevent/treat it could have an even greater impact.
Workplace trauma can include:
Workplace trauma can have an intensely negative impact, both on your employees and your organization. The effects of trauma can cause employees' mental health to deteriorate. Often, employees experiencing trauma at work don't feel safe in the work environment. And ultimately, that can lead to them leaving the company—and the organization losing top talent.
As an organization, it's important to take every step possible to mitigate trauma in the workplace. It's also imperative to support traumatized employees. One way to accomplish this is by prioritizing your employees' mental health and well-being. When supporting your employees' well-being is built into your culture, team members will be less stressed. They will be more engaged with their work, co-workers, and managers. If they experience a trauma, they will know the company will take it seriously—and do whatever is necessary to support them. Knowing they have that support and knowledge can help them build resilience and put them in a better place to manage trauma if and when it happens.
I would love to work with you to help create this knowledgeable and supportive environment for you and your employees!
