GBWellness offers complete workplace nutrition services for you and your employees. Nutrition and lifestyle initiatives in the workplace can serve an integral role in fostering employee wellness. Healthy employees are engaged employees, leading to increased productivity, reduced absenteeism and a vibrant workplace environment.
Key areas of focus:
The links between nutrition and performance at work, with respect to energy levels, digestive issues and immune health
The “Gut Brain” connection: how food can affect our mood, memory, focus and ability to learn
The physical and mental impact of stress and sleep
As an organization that cares deeply about its employees’ health and wellness, we were very pleased with Gillian’s Revive and Thrive: Why Food Matters session. She delivered a powerful message on mindful eating that was relatable, practical, kept the audience’s attention and was relevant to a varied crowd. She is the perfect choice for a session on healthy eating, nutrition, balance and maximizing energy for busy professionals. Our people left her presentation energized and equipped to make small, but impactful changes for a healthier lifestyle.

Gillian’s knowledge and passion for her work in nutrition and as a health coach was clearly evident in her presentation “Revive and Thrive: Why Food Matters.” In an information filled hour, she managed to impart key tips and strategies for why food truly matters, touched on the gut-health connection, the importance of stress-awareness, breathing to relax and overall, sparked an initial awareness amongst participants that we each can make a difference in our health, one step at a time. In a world where there is too much information and studies on the next-best way to be healthy, trying to live one’s best life can be daunting. Having Gillian’s help navigating the road to health would be a blessed bonus – she is a living embodiment of what she teaches which is inspiring on many levels.
