At Wellbeing Think Tank, we offer a range of events designed to support both individual and organizational wellbeing.

This month, we’re focusing on our BeWell workshops. These sessions create space to pause, recharge, and focus on your own wellbeing while gaining practical, evidence-based tools you can apply in your work and daily life.

We’re especially excited for this month’s session How to Build a Fun Habit, where we’ll explore the science behind fun’s impact on health and productivity and learn practical ways to invite more joy and delight into everyday life.

If you’ve been meaning to prioritize your own wellbeing, this is a great place to start.

Fun at work does not have to mean forced games, distractions, or one more thing added to the calendar.

Sometimes it starts with a better question: What parts of your work give you energy, and how can we make more room for them?

Research on job crafting reminds us that people can shape parts of their work to better align with their strengths, interests, and sources of meaning. Even small shifts, like adding creativity, connection, humor, or autonomy into the workday, can support focus, motivation, and wellbeing.

On May 21, join us for How to Build a Fun Habit with Mike Rucker, Ph.D., author of The Fun Habit. We’ll explore how brief, intentional moments of fun can support joy, health and overall wellbeing.

Join the Wellbeing Think Tank community today and join us in creating cultures of wellbeing for all.
