Yulife, in partnership with smallbusiness.co.uk, will host a virtual event on how small businesses can create a cost-effective culture of wellbeing.

Virtual event Synopsis

With a sharp rise in stress and anxiety levels, it’s more critical than ever for small businesses to support their employees wellbeing.

Dr Rangan Chatterjee will discuss how the answer lies in incorporating easy, healthy habits into our daily lives to bolster mental and physical health and emotional wellbeing. The result? A happy circle, which involves increased productivity, better sleep and less stress. “The wellbeing of your staff isn’t about fancy gym memberships, it’s about the culture,” says Dr. Chatterjee.

“Employers need to encourage staff to take five minutes out, which might just mean having a cup of tea with the team and not talking about work. I honestly believe that if every person in the UK followed the Feel Better in 5 ethos, we’d have a happier, healthier society. It’s that simple.”

How does technology play a role in enabling this culture of wellbeing? Kate Whitelock, Head of Wellbeing at YuLife, will inspire a wellbeing programme that your employees will love and value everyday by incorporating incentive-based employee benefits into group coverage.

Chief Wellbeing Officer of YuLife, bestselling author and host of the Feel Better, Live More podcast

Dr. Rangan Chatterjee is regarded as one of the most influential medical doctors in the UK and hosts the most listened to health podcast in the UK and Europe, ‘Feel Better, Live More’.

His first 3 books have all been Number 1 Sunday Times Bestsellers and his latest, Feel Better in 5, shows people how to transform their health in just 5 minutes. It has been a smash hit in the UK, selling almost 100,000 copies in just 7 months, and has just been published in the United States. Professor BJ Fogg, the world’s leading expert in human behaviour, calls this book – ‘one of the best habit change programs he has seen – deceptively simple but remarkably effective.’

Dr.Chatterjee regularly appears on BBC News and Television and has been featured in numerous international publications including The New York Times , Forbes, The Guardian and Vogue, and his TED talk, How To Make Disease Disappear, has been viewed almost 3 million times.
