Bright Breaks' Impact on Employees
We asked some of Wynward’s top Bright Breaks users how taking breaks on our platform has impacted them:
Bright Breaks have made such a positive impact on my work day. I love that the breaks are short enough that you can easily fit them into your day. It’s nice to be able to take seven minutes to do something good for your body and mind and, maybe even see some of your coworkers at the same time! I try to fit in a break or two each day. I find that after a Bright Break I’m refreshed and reenergized. I’m so grateful that my employer is looking out for our mental and physical well-being. Bright Breaks definitely brighten my day!
Maggie Svaling, 241 breaks taken
Bright Breaks is a wonderful addition to any work set up. The breaks are the perfect length to break up the day, and the variety is enough to accommodate however I am feeling, whether I need a focusing meditation, or an invigorating Move & Groove. Each instructor brings their own personality to the session, which makes it even more fun! It is an integral part of setting my day up for success.
Abby Leschyson, 210 breaks taken
I find the Bright Breaks a very handy system. I travel a lot for work so to be able to take the workouts on the go with me is awesome, whether I can attend the live sessions or catch up on a couple of workouts with the “On Demand” feature it works out very well. I find the Bright educators very friendly, and they certainly know their stuff.
