At Pacific BMW we had a jam-packed week filled with health-beneficial sessions for employees to attend. Every day we had a new activity such as sound bath mediation, acupuncture, free health screenings, insurance advice and nutrition workshops. By participating in the events that were being held, employees had the opportunity to enjoy healthy snacks such as protein bars and fruits.
In addition to attending the events, employees also had the chance to enter a raffle contest with the potential of winning various prizes such as a Trader Joe’s gift card, Amazon gift card, Massage Envy gift cards and more.
To kick off the start of health week, we had Kimberly Libreina Wellness show us the relaxing nature of both bath mediation and energy healing. Both activities are meant to reduce stress and ease tension within the body and ultimately provide a calm and soothing mindset for employees to enjoy.
Tuesday was our most popular activity, acupuncture sessions with Dr. Annette Stollsteimer. Acupuncture is a deeply rooted practice in Chinese medicine that involves the insertion of thin needles into the body to relieve pain, stress, healthier digestive heath, and much more.
We had our wonderful team of health professionals from Dignity Health of Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center join us in facilitating free health screenings on our third day. We had five stations where employees could learn about their blood pressure, speed of blood flow, glucose and cholesterol intake, and strength grip.
Our second to last day was filled with representatives from Aflac, Anthem Blue Cross, CalDental, Nationwide and Forest Lawn. Employees had the chance to ask questions across all sectors of insurance. Even going home with some exciting merchandise from the different booths.
Friday was our final day of health week where employees had the opportunity to attend a workshop with Neenet, a certified nutritionist, where she shared her tips on how to stay energized and healthy throughout the day. We also held one-on-one meetings where employees got to discuss with Neenet some personalize tips tailored to them.
